Change of address?

Anybody have any idea on how to go about this? I looked on the website and did not see anything, or should I just call?

If on your LTCF, it don't need doin'.

If you just "want" to do so, I'd just call the issuing Sheriff and see about getting a new camera card.

I don't know what your county's like, but when I moved out of Philly I just called them and gave my new address. You won't get an updated card (unless you want one and are willing to pay for it), but they'll send the renewal notice to the new address. Although you don't have to update your address, it's also a good idea to do it just in case a revocation order is issued for any reason.

I'd say the 100% opposite. Prove I received notice...

I thought the license was revoked regardless of whether or not you receive the notice?

Anyone have a citation?

It would be in your best interest to call the issuing county / office where it was issued to you and give them your new address. This is really all that's needed. You don't need a new card.

Not doing so and then getting into a situation where you have to show an LEO your LTCF and drivers license will most likely create a situation you don't want. So save yourself the frustration and just give the issuing county your new address.

I would tend to agree with that. From the UFA:

18 Pa.C.S. § 6109: Licenses

(i) Revocation.--A license to carry firearms may be revoked by the issuing authority for good cause. A license to carry firearms shall be revoked by the issuing authority for any reason stated in subsection (e)(1) which occurs during the term of the permit.

Notice of revocation shall be in writing and shall state the specific reason for revocation. Notice shall be sent by certified mail to the individual whose license is revoked, and, at that time, notice shall also be provided to the Pennsylvania State Police by electronic means, including e-mail or facsimile transmission, that the license is no longer valid.

An individual whose license is revoked shall surrender the license to the issuing authority within five days of receipt of the notice. An individual whose license is revoked may appeal to the court of common pleas for the judicial district in which the individual resides. An individual who violates this section commits a summary offense.

Thanks for the input. It's Allegheny Co. if it matters. I will probably do it once I get my drivers license changed, now I have to figure out if I need anything to do that....

PA DMV can change your drivers license and vehicle reg address online.

PA DMV can change your drivers license and vehicle reg address online.

It's quick and painless...they send a letter to your new address for confirmation in case someone is tring to nab your ID and a New paper DL supplement comes a few days later...says it's good until your DL expiration.
