Re: What to do.
Though you should notify your former county of your address change. In the event that your LTCF is revoked, they will send the notice to the address they have. It's not their problem if you don't receive it, you're still responsible.
Also I believe the sheriff is supposed to send a letter six months before your expiration reminding you of the need to renew.

Re: What to do.
I just got my CCW permit this spring, after a long, long, spell without having one.
I live in Port Allegany, but I had to go to Smethport, out to the County Jail, (the Sheriff's Office to be exact) and get my permit in McKean County. My old one was for Washington County, but they weren't the least interested in it.
"Your permit, Sir, is not for McKean County." was exactly what I was told. I filled out the new application, they did a background check by means of my Driver's License, and I was immediately issued my McKean County CCW Permit.
Just bear in mind that you're going to be expected to pay the $25.00 fee, all over again.

Re: What to do.
Ok I'm confused. You say you just got a permit after a long spell without one.
Was that a Washington Co. permit?
If so and you recently relocated to Port and the sheriff dept. instructed you that your recently newly issued permit was invalid and needed to be reissued from McKean?
Is that correct?
If so:
Who told you this the sheriff or a deputy?
Because this is completely untrue. Any issued permit is legal until it either expires or is revoked.
Eagerly awaiting a reply

(1) A license to carry a firearm shall be for the purpose of carrying a firearm concealed on or about one's person or in a vehicle and shall be issued if, after an investigation not to exceed 45 days, it appears that the applicant is an individual concerning whom no good cause exists to deny the license. A license shall not be issued to any of the following:

Re: What to do.
And of course a LTCF issued in any PA county is valid in any other PA county
Oh and another post mentioned about a six month notice from the sheriff to renew, actually it is 60 days as per statute:
(2) At least 60 days prior to the expiration of each license, the issuing sheriff shall send to the licensee an application for renewal of license. Failure to receive a renewal application shall not relieve a licensee from the responsibility to renew the license.

Re: What to do.
Yes, a long dry spell, meaning that my last permit was issued in Dec 1998, in Washington County. It had long since expired from Washington County in Dec 2003.
Meanwhile, I took a job and moved to Zanesville Ohio, became a resident out there, thereby nullifying my Washington County Permit. In 2005 I moved again up here to McKean County, and decided in 2009 that I wanted to get my permit, again. But I'd realized that my old one was long since expired, and null and void.
I mentioned the old permit, in passing, to the Officer that actually did my paperwork, in fact I held it in my hand offering to allow the official to examine it, but he declined. I'd also told him that it was expired. Bear in mind that my expired permit was the old paper kind, not the credit card sized one issued now-a-days.
I can't recall the Officers name, but I've got enough Military Experience to recall that this Gentleman was the Number 2 guy in the office.
Like I said, I told him that I had an expired permit, and when he saw the paper permit, he very likely knew from his personal experience that I needed a new one.
