I’m not allowed to send the teletype out I’ll see if i can find a public link but he is correct.
The teletype specifically asks to call Registration with any questions at 202-727-4275
You MAY, not positive, find the information in the Mayors order 2020-046 but that might just be the initial state of emergency.
Thanks for the info. I didn't see anything in the Mayor's order, but it looks like it might be the basis for the extension.
It confirmed. You don't see it because "Not for the press"
Got this email notification this morning:
Dear Licensee:
The public health emergency due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) presents unprecedented challenges for all of us. As the Metropolitan Police Department continues to work tirelessly to safeguard the District and everyone in it, we are aware that concealed carry licensees with upcoming renewal periods may not be able to satisfy the training and range practice requirements for renewal. As a result, commencing immediately, pursuant to § 310 of the COVID-19 Response Emergency Amendment Act of 2020 and the authority sub-delegated to me by the District of Columbia City Administrator, I am temporarily extending the validity of concealed carry licenses (CCL) set to expire during the COVID-19 public health emergency, as declared by the Mayor in Mayor’s Order 2020-046, issued March 11, 2020, and holding renewals in abeyance until 45 days after the end of the emergency and any subsequent extensions.
What does that mean for you? If you currently have a concealed carry license that is scheduled to expire on any date during the public health emergency, you can rest assured that it will remain valid. You will then be permitted to timely renew your license within 45 days of the date that the public health emergency ends. Also please note that licensees are not required to obtain or demonstrate proof of the requisite training or range practice for renewal during the duration of the public health emergency or any extension.
However, licensees must continue to comply with all other requirements to maintain their license and/or eligibility for renewal. Failure to do so will result in the suspension or revocation of your concealed carry license. In addition, licensees should print this letter and carry it with their CCL.
