CHP Timeline ***Update***

[caper]

I took my class back in May and have been waiting like everyone. Finally got the "fingerprint rejection" letter and went up to BR tho have it done there. Went on a Wednesday and my permit came in the mail the following Saturday. Surprise!!!

I asked the woman who was taking my prints if they had sent out many rejection letters and she said about 600 a day. Makes you wonder who isn't carrying....Also makes you wonder if they just don't want to get them all on electronic file. I mean can there be that many bad finger print takers out there?

 

[noob]

it's been ~90 days since i mailed mine.... you guys think I'm getting a rejection letter or they are really just that slow? I know a lot of y'all said not to call since it takes their time away from them working on our permits.

Mailed mine off july 1st it was issued 11-9-09 got it in the mail today.

 

[HiCapMag]

Dropped off my package, and did the fingerprints, on Oct. 14 and received permit today....5 weeks and a day. I assume the fact that I had a permit that expired last year helped since they gave me the same number on the permit LOL.

Cheers.

I Dropped mine off at the post office AUGUST 12th, FINALLY!!!! it came in today. Issued 11/11/09!!! So yea, walmart walk tomorrow with HK9c and LCP

I think they must have certain days they "issue" the permits. I dropped mine off at LSP, with the same criteria as others weeks after me and they all were issued on the same day. I think they pool certain submission dates after running checks, and have them printed on the same day.

That would explain why some are quicker than others by a few weeks.

Congrats. I was at Walmart on College Drive here in Baton Rouge this weekend. I just HAd to have one of those deep friers they had on sale. As I was walking toward the front of the store I was behind an older guy and a kid. The guy pulled the kid over to the side a bit and told him "Let that man go around you". As I walked past them down the isle the kid said "Daddy, that man has a gun" and pointed at my Ruger P-89 holstered on my belt. The guy said "That's why you need to let him go around". I almost laughed out loud.

Dropped mine off today. I hope to have it by my birthday in march.

 

[FishingBack]

I sent mine off at the end of June. I called yesterday and they said I'd been approved and I should get in in 60-90 days.

It took me 30 minutes to get my caddo parish permit, filling out forms and all.

Got it. Took 150 days total. (~5 months)

 

[breauxman]

I dropped mine off in person on Nov. 23rd. The lady who took my packet told me 60 days.

Okay here's a time line:

My packet was dropped off at LSP for me by someone else. My packet contained my previously done fingerprint card, I was not able to go to LSP personally for fingerprints at that time.

I have a clean background, no divorce, arrests, long-time resident, etc.

My permit arrived by mail 54 days later.

Thanks LSP for doing a good job despite being stretched.

I dropped off my paperwork at LSP on Oct 20th and got my permit in the mail today. Only 6 weeks. Not bad turn around time. Not bad at all.

 

[latech15]

I dropped mine off Oct 19. Fingerprints not done at LSP. Just called this morning and they said that it has been approved, printed, and will be mailed out by Friday. Almost 60 days on the nose.

 

[BayouDude]

This is good to read. I mailed mine in last week so hopefully if this 60day time line that you experienced holds I should have mine by late January or early February.

Update: Got my permit in the mail today

not a bad turn around at all!

Time to go to wal mart

Had fingerprints done at LSP and turned in the packet on November 9th. Permit arrived December 1st. I was surprised. That was a 22 day turnaround. Evidentally they are catching up with the backlog. Have been to Wally World a few times and never carry anything in my right hand.

 

[MrLefty]

Yeah, they're definitely catching up, which is a good thing. I turned mine in at LSP (and was fingerprinted there as well) on December 15th, and got my permit in the mail this past Wednesday (January 13th).

 

[jro6803]

Brought mine to LSP HQ on 12/15/09 (and had fingerprints done there) and got the envelope in the mail 1/14/10. Was very impressed with the process at LSP HQ - moved very quickly and everyone was very pleasant.

Are you the guy who got your money order snatched at the gas station?
