Today I applied for my CHL here in Ohio. By law the Sheriff has 45 days to decide, on day 46 he MUST issue. I will pass the background check, so not worried there. The deputy that handles the CHL's there said average turn around is 2 weeks, he said he has never seen one taking longer than 3 weeks, I sure hope I am not the test case of that one.
Now, when I get my income tax refund (gotta file first) I can get my gun out of layaway.
I made 20k last year, between earned income tax and child tax credits, I get money no matter what I paid in. I love the irony of it, using the goverments money to buy my gun.
Good luck, I have been waiting... 35 days and counting. It was promised I would have it in hand in 30.... Its evidently one of those hurry up and wait things!
consider yourself lucky. Here in FL it seems they're exercising the use of all 90 days. I've heard of people taking up to and over 120. We dont have a must-issue timeline here. I'm on days 40 and expect another 50, at least. My check hasn't even cleared yet.
Congratulations, I applied for mine this past Monday and they told me to come by this next Monday to pick it up. I'm excited. I should get my license Monday and my super-tuck in on Tuesday!!
If you live on the eastern side of Ohio I would definitely think about picking up PA's non res license as we still don't have reciprocity with them. It, along with your OH card, will cover you in all but a few states. Colorado being the only one that I wish we could pick up.
If you aren't close to PA (you have to pick up the license personally) Consider FL as I believe the entire process can handled by correspondence.
BTW Good choice on the M&P9c. Your going to be very happy with it.
I have been waiting since June 30th for mine. I just got the call from the Sheriffs office tonight. Now it has to get through the county judge and I will be all set. Then I can go liberate my SA GI 1911 from the dealer.
Zippy
