I was approved on july 4th for a pistol permit. It seems like things are different from when i used to live here and you needed to soend the permit within 30 days.
Can anyone explain what this means in real terms?
" Electronic Permits:
Your electronic permits are now available for use. You will NOT see your permit(s) until a HANDGUN TRANSFER has been EXECUTED.
Number of Active Permits Available for use: 1
Expiration Date: 10/01/2025 - Please note that permit(s) are automatically renewed for additional 90-days unless your Police Department de-activates your E-Permit."
You have one permit available to use, if you don’t use it by 10-1 it will be extended for another 90 days, if you don’t use it by then, you loose it. Save your email, you will need to show that you have one permit to execute when you purchase a pistol.
Thanks a ton! I know it’s not perfect but judging by the amount of time it took to get this permit approved and the instant extension of 90 days has me believing that NJ has made some big strides since I last lived here nearly a decade ago.
You don’t need the email to execute the permit. Your FFL will be able to see that you have one when they go to process your NJ NICS in the FARS system. You can’t see it, but they can.
You will also get an email when it is renewed at the 90 day mark if you don’t use it sooner than that and also that you no longer have a permit if you don’t use it within that extra 90 days.
