NJ license

[jwalker497]

I searched and could not find the answer. If someone is LTCF in PA, can they get a license for NJ? If so, how do they go about getting it?

Short answer is, it can't be done. It is impossible for the common man to get a license from NJ. I don't know if they issue non-resident permits, but even subjects of NJ can't get a license so it doesn't really matter if they issue non-res ones or not.

Unfortunately, there genuinely is no such thing. NJ is a "may issue" state. They may issue a license if they think you have a good enough reason. They will never think so.

Virtually no one gets a NJ license who is not A) extremely wealthy B) politically connected at a very high level and C) owed a BIG favor.

No, No, No and No.............

The only regular citizen issued a license to carry that I know in the state of NJ is a handicapped man in a wheel chair who took it all the way to the supreme court.

I believe they do issue out to residents out of state.

No, you will not get one.

You can give it a shot. It has been done. All the odds are against you, so you will have to research people that have succeeded before even thinking about it. The few that are not politically connected get them for business or employment related purposes. Most of those people don't even get one, and when they do, the Judge puts restrictions that the permit is not valid except during the specific circumstances of the reason you need one for that business or employment, usually with places and times of day specified.

You could try for political purposes based on recent SCOTUS rulings. If you have the money or political connections, or want to be a legal martyr for those that follow in your footsteps.

They do have a "process" to issue to out of state residents...not sure they have ever actually used it...

I gotta say, I'm tempted to fill it out and submit it if SAF wins their case attacking New York's good cause requirement.

I would gladly be one of the first to try and use that as precedent in other states.

Keep in mind that if another state asks if you have ever been denied for a ccw elsewhere you will have to say yes. Might not mean much but I would not like to find out the hard way.

Always a good point to remember
