    Angry Avg time for LTCF renewal in Northampton County???

    When I did my renewal back in 2010 I had my card in hand in under 2 weeks, but in 2015 I'm now going on week SIX. I literally haven't gotten so much as a parking ticket since my last renewal, so it's not like they could be looking into something. 45 days is fast approaching, so I guess I'll just give them a call once the deadline comes and goes. Is it typical nowadays for folks to be jerked around over the renewal in Northampton County?

    It took me about the same amount of time. Before the new Sheriff. Could be the interim Sheriff and the new Sheriff are not prioritizing it. I don't think they are just trying to screw us around. Applications are at record levels.

    So it ended up taking exactly 45 days to get the renewal this time, and the lamination job was nothing short of pitiful. 1/2" of overhanging lamination on one side and the other wasn't covered at all. You could make a more professional looking license on a home printer and laminator. SMH

    My understanding is that now that the PSP has "harmonized" the permit process, you are seeing the new "standard."

    Butler gave me the same thing (regression from a plastic card printed on a plastic card printer the last time) and it essentially is cardstock printed on a cheap commercial printer and laminated with whatever is available. I have a real lamination machine at work and fixed the latter so it would fit in my ID case....

    Well... I reapplied first week of February and am still waiting. My current LTCF expired two days ago. My bad for not starting the process earlier. Hoping to receive the new LTCF within the next week or so. Presuming the Sheriff's office is very busy with processing LTCF's.

    My LTCF was due to expire Jan 2016, I went down to the sheriff's office the day before thanksgiving the street was deserted no court, parked right outside. Issue date on new LTCF is 12/21/2016. Today 3/5/16 I get a letter dated 3/1/16 from the Sheriff's office stating my LTCF will expire in the next 60 days, along with an application.

    Does anyone know why they want vets to send in DD214 I can't find any box on my LTCF that says I am a vet or .098% Indian.

    I've been hearing reports on the news about S&W stock going 50 - 60%. When you can't have it is when you want it. All this talk about gun control is creating a staggering frenzy.
