August: I was told to carry both (so I shrunk down the paper, folded it over, and laminated it to fit a wallet).

November: picked up a replacement permit (transcription error between the qualified-arms listing and the printed permit), and Daniel told me the rules have changed. Just carry the permit card, keep the paper on file at home.

yeah im so confused. thats what they told me when i picked up.

however, when i emailed them yesterday to confirm, they told me this:

Good evening,

If they have not been issued a CCW within the last few months, they will need to follow old instructions as the paperwork has changed recently. You will only need to carry your ID card with you. In the event you leave the county, please carry both the ID card as well as the paper form.

Best Regards,
CCW Unit


might be good practice to just carry both unless you never leave SCC

Jeez there is literally NOBODY offering training until January in the South Bay at this point.

Checked out NorCalMedTac? http://www.norcalmedtac.com/

He does Monterey, Santa Cruz, San Benito Counties for sure, not sure if S'Clara. Scotts Valley and @ the huge skeet place just south of Metcalf; Coyote Valley Sporting Clays.

Does anyone know what happens if we miss Santa Clara's 90-day deadline to complete training?

Thank you!

(Due to some scheduling issues for the range qual part of it, I'm in a tight spot.)

Straight to jail!

Ok but seriously this happens to a lot of people for one reason or another in a lot of agencies. If you call/email and explain what's going on and promise to get the training cert submitted ASAP they may be willing to give you an extension.

so did we get confirmation that people who's applications that are already in motion won't be required to jump through the extra hoops come jan 1?

I thought we're waiting to hear about the filed Injunction for SB2 (May v Bonta) ?

I did not read the complaint but i believe that they are currently only challenging the sensitive locations portion. Not the modifications to the CCW licensing process. So no, not waiting on May v Bonta for that aspect.

For those who have got to this point, (i.e. waiting to get approved for training), should I be proactive in attempting to ask for status from SCSO? I just dont want to be held up due to my livescan info not being sent.

I did take a screenshot of my three completed livescans (CA, DOJ, Firearms) and uploaded it to permitium in case thats what they needed to see? im assuming that they get it from their own channels.

I recommend being proactive. I don't think they really look at permitium much. I suggest emailing them at every point in the process. You finish training ... Upload to permitium, send the same attachments via email requesting confirmation of receipt and approval for the next step...

Additionally, if you are in limbo I would email them once a week with a polite request to provide the status of the application and confirm that they have all documents needed at this time.

CRPA filed suit against LA County Sheriff Office today to include "excessive wait times."

Focus on lengthy wait times, cost, reciprocity.

Yeah, there is a video discussing it. Per the video the county reports 18 month wait/backlog.

I applied in April and pickup tomorrow which puts it at 8 months and about 2 weeks of that way my delay. So 18 months yet for me at least, but the whole process costs about 1k and 8 months is still far too long in my book.

Thanks! That worked, I?m approved to train now.

Thanks, though I think my main concern is because everyone's always looking for an excuse to deny in CA (at least, in some counties).

Today I found out that some LiveScans get transmitted to the sheriff's office via online or via post office. I called to ask if they received mine and I was told odds are they sent mine via post office. I guess it has something to do with how the livescan agent does your paper work sounds like theres a 50 50 chance it ends up being online or post office. I guess thats why some people have longer wait times for training approvals.
