skinnyb82 Posted May 16, 2013 at 07:57 PM Share Posted May 16, 2013 at 07:57 PM Man AZ DPS is backed up like a public toilet. When I got my permit, I mailed it in on the first of the month,they batch process so they didn't even send it I'm until the 15th, it was issued on the 17th, and I got it in the mail on the 19th I believe. The again this was last yr. UT only took 50 days or so to send my "preliminary" permit pending the print check. Now...ugh. And I thought about doing NRA Basic Pistol to get a FL permit but opted against it because of the IL crap being up in the air and now I guess Phelps says that his "new" bill will require 15-18 hrs.

Livewire18 Posted May 16, 2013 at 11:44 PM Share Posted May 16, 2013 at 11:44 PM I called again today and the guy I spoke with said it was mailed out 4 days ago (Monday). So hopefully I will have it tomorrow which will actually be 65 days. I'm pretty mad though as everyone else I know already got theirs from the same class as me.

Crypto Posted May 17, 2013 at 04:34 PM Share Posted May 17, 2013 at 04:34 PM Mailed my app and money order to AZ on 3/19/13. Called and spoke to a very pleasant woman on 5/13 to inquire about the process. She said they were just opening the mail that they received on 3/23, so they should be opening my application within three days or so and asked that I call back on the 28th to check on the status. Is that a typo? 53 days to open the mail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livewire18 Posted May 18, 2013 at 01:20 AM Share Posted May 18, 2013 at 01:20 AM I called and talked to them again today. The guy, very nice BTW, said it could take up to 2 weeks because it is an ID and doesn't go normal everyday mail. 2 weeks? That puts me over 70 days from the cc charge. I'm a little po'ed.

skinnyb82 Posted May 18, 2013 at 04:36 PM Share Posted May 18, 2013 at 04:36 PM Wild guess but I'd say the majority of the AZ apps are from Illinois residents. The woman I spoke to way back when told me that a good chunk of their apps were from IL residents. Sent from my SCH-R530U using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrown1311 Posted May 18, 2013 at 05:25 PM Share Posted May 18, 2013 at 05:25 PM Mailed mine in beginning of March and recieved it yesterday in case anybody was wondering, talked to a clerk there she said they are getting slammed with oos applications, as expected. They're working hard though, just be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My class was 3-9 and my check cashed 3-17 and still no joy. I should have gotten mine last Monday. Today is actually 67 days from the day my cc was charged but they screwedup something with the picture so it never got sent out till I called. I believe mine was right around 3/16 also but not sure. Call the number on the bci site and they will let you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendallman Posted May 21, 2013 at 04:48 PM Share Posted May 21, 2013 at 04:48 PM Sent out my AZ permit application and will be sending out my FL one probably next week sometime. Now the waiting part... Aren't AZ and FL pretty much the same as far as reciprocity? I thought the better combo would be UT plus AZ or FL, but not AZ and FL together.

If you travel to Florida, get the florida, if not then get the Arizona. I didn't think about that. Now that I look FL doesn't recognize AZ, but AZ does recognize FL (along with a couple other states that recognize one but not the other). I am more likely to go to FL than AZ, but applied for AZ. Ah well. Depending on what happens here I may have to apply for FL when some money frees up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulkucz Posted May 21, 2013 at 08:02 PM Share Posted May 21, 2013 at 08:02 PM Can anyone in the Chicago area tell me where I can get my fingerprint cards done? I meet the training requirements already, but if I have to take a class that does the fingerprints, so be it.

wendallman Posted May 21, 2013 at 08:21 PM Share Posted May 21, 2013 at 08:21 PM Ink or digital? There is a member and sponsor on the forums that I took a class with that does ink. IllinoisCC http://illinoiscarry.com/forum/index.php?showuser=5532 Will County Sheriffs will do ink too, I think it cost 20 bucks but you have to call before you go in, and they are only there when I am at work apparently.

wendallman Posted May 29, 2013 at 12:26 PM Share Posted May 29, 2013 at 12:26 PM I called AZ again yesterday afternoon and was told I have been processed and cleared 8 out of 9 of the checks. She said there is probably someone in the system with the same first name, middle initial and a really similar last name so it is taking longer to finish step 9. Should be soon I guess, no real hurry anymore. My main reason was the grace period we had originally hoped to have which no longer exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
