[Apd09]

Is a passport picture good to go for Va?

I had mine done at cvs. Just needs be 2x2 on white background I believe.

9 days to go, unless they only counting "business days" in their 90 day statement. If it's only business days that would be another month and a half.

it's 90 calendar days.

I don't think there's a formal process time limit for NR. It's just a guideline.

yep

this is true. The 45 day limit is for resident permits. That's in the statute.

that was always my understanding. The VSP seem to be pretty efficient though.

Back when I got my VA NR permit in 2009 I waited 30 days.

i guess CCW permits have gotten more popular.

Same here, mailbox to mailbox was 30 days on the nose for me in '09

Don't want this to be a thread jack, but anyone do a resident permit through Fairfax recently? How long was your wait?

They usually wait the maximum amount of days before mailing out. PWC was a week back in March.

I think when states like NV started to recognize VA, the perrmit became more popular. No more trips to Vegas just to renew my permit.

And if they don't get it out in 45 days, your copy of your application becomes your permit until they do.

VA gets it.

Isn't a trip out to Vegas part of the appeal?

I have several friends who live there and visit frequently. I guess I could turn it into a junket but I'm not a gambler or party guy.

Now that VA and AZ permits are recognized, (I have both) it will be less expense. No airfare, no training fee and no renewal fee.

just less hassle for me.

Got my permit today, letter dated June 29. So about 90 days and change.

yep, that comports with what others have experienced.

I have no idea why mine took so long as my application was straight forward. Anyway, it was 102 days from payment and 115 days with the mail.

VA NR have been running over 90 days lately.

Renewals too. VSP says submit rnewals at least 60 days prior to expiration. I sent mine in 90 days prior and it took all 90 days.

Permit Renewal
The renewal process is identical to the processes and costs associated with the original permit with the exception of proof of competence with a handgun. New photos and fingerprint impressions will be required. It is suggested that all renewal application packages be submitted at least 60 days prior to expiration of the existing permit.

Payment submitted on 7/12/2016

90 day mark is today. Hopefully I will get my VA permit this week.

Be advised that VA does NOT send out renewal notices. It is up to you to submit in time. This is for NON Resident permits. I found out the hard way and my permit expired. It was not a big deal, just had to submit the paper work.
Sorry of this has been mentioned before, I did not read the entire thread.

VA notified me that my application was accepted October 7th, 2016. Good stuff

Did you call them, or did they call/email?
