Arizona CWP Renewal & New Application Processing

[rice_man]

They have been all over the place with timeframes. If you read past posts they have been issuing in a few weeks to many, many months.

Mailed packet 3/23. Called 5/8, permit arrived 5/15.

Hit or miss. But seems like if you ping them after a delay - email or phone - they get it moving.

That was my experience

Package was delivered today. I'll give them a month or so and then hit them up for status. It seems to be like you said, whenever someone reaches out for status update they seem to process that application within a few days.

Does copies of my CA CCW suffice still for proof of firearms safety?

Also, under 'Firearms Qualification And Statutory Review Affidavit' does the issuing agency for my CA CCW go under 'Name of Organization?'

Thanks!

It should be a separate certificate from your training that is for AZ CCW permit. Name of organization should be the CCW training class you took.

If someone corrects me then I apologize.

When I took my CCW training I paid an extra fee for another certificate to submit for AZ CCW.

A copy of your CCW would have been good enough. Or a DD214 if you had been in the military.

Doesn't say anything about a copy of CCW for required documents on the application.

I didn't say it was a required document.
I said it meets your training requirements.

Why are you quoting me? I am FULLY aware of what it says and that is what I told Dprom.

I just used my hunter's safety card from Califorina. It sounds like that will work fine.

Also just checked and my money order was cashed this past week

[CSACANNONEER]

Cool!! Can I ask how much you paid? I called the local Postal Annex and they want $45 per card!

UPS store said they did them but couldn't give me a price on the phone for some reason. THey said "it depends" and couldn't give me a ballpark number.

Just for informational purposes, I charge $25 total for the two cards required for AZ. I do it to promote CCW and not to make a profit.

Does anybody know if there's an online portal to check the status of the application? I applied for my non-resident through Dobbs Firearms Training here in NorCal while I was renewing my CA CCW permit. The instructor was telling the class that some were waiting over a year but through the comments on this thread I see that people were getting them in 2 weeks. This is why I wanted to check the status of my app.
