Philadelphia CCW Roadblock
Hey Guys,
Just a quick issue and I wounder if any CCW Holders in Philla County have found a work around, success.
Here is the problem.
(name and personal info changed)
I went to apply for my CCW in Philadelphia, was first in line, had money order, head shots everything etc. Got turned away because I am the II and my cable bill only had my last name no II or Middle Name.
They want it to match completely, so voter registration and license match 100%. My bank statement has John J. Doe II instead of John John Doe II. I called and asked if it is okay that my form of Id abbreviates my middle name with a letter and the lady said "well they like them to match exactly"
Anyone run into a similar issue? I don't have a car because I live in the city, and utility bills are included in rent, so I am not sure what I should use or if I go will they accept a bank statement even if its only J. instead of my full middle name?
Thanks all

Just call the cable company and have your name edited then reprint a bill statement.
That is easier than the bank, although the bank would probably change it also with the right bonafides.How can you have any cookies if you don't drink your milk?

Re: Philadelphia CCW Roadblock
The PA UFA, § 6109. Licenses, makes mention of the City of First Class, twice, but no mention of any extra demands when applying.
https://beta.phila.gov/media/2017082...APP_080117.pdf
You can apply again, tell the officer to except the application, and if they deny, then they can explain, upon appeal, why they don't adhere to the UFA.
Oh, and when completing the app, SSN is clearly marked optional. Bring a dictionary, show them what the word means.

And having proof thru some utility bills does not really prove that you ACTUALLY reside at the address on the bills.
Your DL is the only piece of ID that requires you to provide notification to PennDOT of an address change.
And what is with the fingerprinting? Again, not required by state statute, or bringing in your own mug shots.
Somebody needs to make them explain all of this at an appeals hearing.

Re: Philadelphia CCW Roadblock
I wish I could... I guess the idea is to just make it as hard as possible for someone who a) isn't as knowledgeable or b) doesn't have spare cash to run around and complete all these random tasks with. It is bizarre because I could literally go into my utility bill in word, edit the name, save as pdf and print that out to have my full middle name instead of the first letter... as far as I am concerned if you can pass a background check to buy a firearm, you should be able to bring YOUR PROPERTY around with you wherever you like. "oh yes you can own this but you need to pay us extra money and jump through hoops if you want to drive with a pistol to a range and stop off somewhere for food"
