LTCF - Moved from Issuing County

[republic]

I moved from my LTCF issuing county and was wondering if I need to apply for a corrected LTCF from my new county residence prior to my expiration for my original LTCF. Thanks for any input.

No. It is valid for 5 years and nothing in the Law requires an address change..

You don't have to do anything, your LTCF is still valid until expired or revoked. There's no requirement to change your address, but it's a good idea to send your old sheriff's office a letter with your new address so they can update their system. Otherwise, go to your new sheriff's office for your renewal when it's time with your updated driver's license (which you DO have to update through PennDOT if you haven't yet) or change of address card.

I was also a Coopersburg resident and jumped counties. Find a couple people around your new residence to use on the renewal form. It is amazing how hard that can be. I live in Carbon county and worked in Monroe county. If it was not for nice neighbors, I would have had no references(That I would have used).

Why would you need new references? My references are in other states! If they refuse to accept or approve based on out of county references, it's time to contact a lawyer.

Just move to Berks County, where references aren't needed.

The renewal form is the same as the initial application form and still has County specific listed in Carbon. It went through so fast I doubt that part gets checked on renewals. I know Monroe has a referral on theirs too. Lehigh used to. Did you guys fill out a form and are sure?

References still on form in berks. They don't call.

They are but when I was in up at the Reading airport I ask the guy if he needed them and he said he didn't so I left them blank.
