question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
So I'm planning to head down on Monday and apply for my LTCF, and I noticed that besides my driver's license, one of the following 3 items are also required for proof of residency according to the application I found online:
PROOF OF RESIDENCY: (voter’s registration card, current-year paid per capita tax receipt OR earned income tax form from your local municipality).
ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER FORMS OF PROOF ARE ACCEPTED
Well I lost my voter's registration card, my taxes are paid directly through the mortgage company so I don't have a paid receipt, and I have a blank earned income tax form from my local municipality that doesn't have my name on it. I usually just file my EIT before April15th and pay the small penalty for not filing quarterly. I hate the idea of having to pay in advance every quarter not knowing if I will actually have a job.
Wouldn't my driver's license serve enough proof that I live in Northampton County? Why can't I bring in some utility bill that shows I actually live in Northampton county? Am I screwed until I can produce one of the three listed means of proof of residency? To me this sounds like an attempt to discourage people from applying for their LTCF. What if someone doesn't vote, doesn't own a house, and doesn't care to pay EIT? Then they can't get their LTCF?

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
You legally shouldn't need any of those, but it probably wouldn't be too hard to get a replacement voter’s registration card from your county's election bureau

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
UFA establishes mandatory, state-wide procedures for issuing a license to carry firearms. No municipality may establish their own rules regarding firearms, and changes to any firearms-related regulations must go through the Pennsylvania General Assembly. The act outlines the express right to a permit in §6109:
http://reference.pafoa.org/statutes/...6109/licenses/
I see nothing there about required ID.
I'm sure that MUST be part of the sheriffs investigation.
If God didn't intend us to have guns why would he have given us a trigger finger?

Also, that sheriff, according to his instructions is overcharging for the LTCF by $10.00.
The state-mandated fee is $25.00.

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
I guess I can pick up another voter's registration card, but how do I get around my sheriff overcharging for the LTCF?

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
I doubt your per-capita tax is paid through your mortgage escrow, but I guess anything is possible.
More to the point, I didn't have to show any of that stuff other than D/L.

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
IMHO: like other counties, they might have to be 'forced' into complying with state law.

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
Aside from the illegality of the requirement.
Contact your EIT office. I'm sure they can provide you a receipt.FUCK BIDEN

Re: question about Northampton proof of residency for LTCF
I was pretty much in the same boat. Lost my voters card. All I had to do is walk across the street from the courthouse to the voters registration department and they printed me a new card. They said it happens all the time because of the county's requirement for LTCF's.
