unemployed & firearm/pistol/ccw permits

If someone is currently unemployed, what do they write in the Employer Info question on the application?

I seem to recall people mentioning that they put "unemployed" or "self-employed" in the box.

how bad does the "unemployed" look? -kinda like a black eye on an application.

"Independtly Wealthy"

 

 

funny, just not for the one filling out the app.

I process applications. I wouldn't look twice at "unemployed". Your employment or lack thereof has zero bearing on you being able to buy a gun.

"No job?

No gun for you, serf

By order of the Emperor"

 

:icon_e_confused:

It's so much fun to write 'retired' in there

Just put " Temporarilly Unemployed "

I would write: Living off of Obama's Stimulus Plan :facepalm:

The NJSP guidelines say nothing other than "confirming" employment that you put on the form. You cannot be denied for not having a job.

...yet.

I put Unemployed on my application and it didn't keep them from issuing my FPID and 3 PP's.

I just put Non Applicable. But you could put Employment Challenged, lacking consistent income, something like that.

 

The officer checking my paperwork (I've had three, but for mistakes made by references or questions regarding the form) asked me about the employment form and told him I couldn't find a job. He even agreed with me, and wished me luck in finding a job. It doesn't matter whether you're unemployed or making nine figures a year.
