    Up here in chesco I know a few of my friends didnt even have their references called.
    Believe those who are seeking the truth; doubt those who find it.

    I wonder what the difference is? I do not believe that the law has changed so I am curious what drove the application changes --- not that the DELCO sheriff follows the letter of the law anyway in regard to his application form.

    I was called as a reference for a friend who got his LTCF in DelCo about 4 or 5 years ago. He got it in the mail a week or two later.

    FWIW, when I got my permit back in Philly in 2000, my references were not contacted. Nor were they contacted when I applied for a new license when I moved to Chester county and the old one expired.

    That is the hardest thing I have ever had to read in my entire life. Not one capital letter. And not one punctuation mark.

    For anyone else who needs a newer form...
    The date of the form is up in the top, left corner. I believe the latest one is dated 8-2007, which can be found at the below link (on page 2) from Centre County. Just blank out Centre and fill in your county to use it. (It's a PDF file).
