culper86 Posted March 4, 2018 at 04:51 AM Share Posted March 4, 2018 at 04:51 AM Next month will be a year that I have been waiting on my appeal for my ccl. When it got denied last year the only thing the letter said was that I answered yes to one of the questions. The question was about mental health. I marked yes because I have seen therapist for PTSD. But i have never been committed to a hospital willing or made to go. Nor have i ever been considered a threat to myself or to anyone else. Anyone else have a similar situation? Any advise or recommendations? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweeper13 Posted March 4, 2018 at 05:58 AM Share Posted March 4, 2018 at 05:58 AM I would try to look thru some of the post and contact Molly B on the forum. She more then likely will chime in on your post. GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted March 5, 2018 at 05:08 AM Share Posted March 5, 2018 at 05:08 AM Next month will be a year that I have been waiting on my appeal for my ccl.

But i have never been committed to a hospital willing or made to go. Nor have i ever been considered a threat to myself or to anyone else. Anyone else have a similar situation? Any advise or recommendations? Thanks. The question is:Yes No Within the past 5 years (preceding the date of this application), have you been a patient in a mental institution or any part of a medical facility for the treatment of mental illness? If you answered yes, then you are proibited from getting a license for 5 years. Getting counseling is not the same as being a patient in a mental institution or medical facility (hospital psych ward, etc.) Did they send you a copy of an affidavit to sign stating you answered the question in error?

culper86 Posted March 6, 2018 at 04:36 PM Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 at 04:36 PM I marked yes because the part it says a medical facility. I was getting seen at the va medical clinic. So I assumed i was suppose to mark yes. And no the only thing i received was a letter saying that i was denied because i marked yes on a question.

Eldridge7179 Posted July 12, 2018 at 05:24 AM Share Posted July 12, 2018 at 05:24 AM Hello!Culper, I was wondering if you have heard or found out anything new regarding your appeal? I am in the EXACT same boat as you with regards to answering that mental health question the same way you did. I too was attending outpatient counseling for PTSD from my local VA.Did you ever get the letter MollyB was mentioning, the one that was supposed to be sent by the state to confirm you didn't answer that question in error? I've not seen a letter either. Anyway, if either of you could let me know how you are doing on your appeal, I'd appreciate it greatly. Thanks!
