Chesco LTCF Renewal Process

[giant_g2]

Hey guys,

I only see slots for new license appointments on their website. Is Chesco going to handle renewals by some other process?

There's a Soros sheriff in chesco now so things will probably be more difficult.

Download/print the form and check the renewal box at the top. Only difference is you need an appointment, (i.e., can*t just walk in).

But the website only lists appointment slots for new applicants...

*facepalm*

Just schedule your appointment and show up with your renewal box checked off, (i.e., the process is the same).

Sure, I could do that. I wanted to check here since I heard some counties are mailing out renewed licenses and only requiring in-person applications for new ones. That would be much more convenient if true for Chester County.

Have you renewed recently?

It is illegal for them to refuse an application, appointment or not.

I was just in the Chesco sheriffs office yesterday for a 3:15pm appointment (that was booked back in early July). New/renewal is the same process. Call them or schedule via their website ASAP.

The officer I spoke with yesterday said they are scheduling into February 2021. Good luck.

EDIT: There was another guy behind me in line @ 3:10 just outside the entrance doors into the sheriffs office. I overheard him talking to the female officer checking applications behind me; Female officer checked his name and notified him he wasn't on their list of people scheduled for the day; he said he was told by so and so to show up @ 3:15. Female officer relayed the info to the other officers behind the desks inside the sheriffs office...they looked around the office (it's just me) and allowed him to enter to submit his application after I left.

I'm almost positive this guy just walked up at the end of the day and BS'd his way in.

Thanks for the info!

I actually just spoke with their office before I saw this. The online appointments are for new applicants only. Any renewals for a license previously issued by Chester County are handled by appointments scheduled over the phone. Current wait times are about 4-6 weeks for renewal appointments.

Yeah, but when have the powers that be actually enforced the laws that they violate?
