FPID Application: No drivers license?

Featured Replies

Hello everyone,

 

I'm looking to apply for my FPID card here in the Garden State...I have a question that I'm hoping someone on this forum can assist with. On the application for a FPID card question 8 requests a drivers license number and state, I don't have a drivers license (just turned 18) so I'm wondering would a non driver photo ID issued by the state of New Jersey be acceptable? Can't seem to find any info on this...

 

Thanks

Thanks!

 

So if I go and get a non driver photo ID I would just put that ID number down for number 8, right?

 

Thanks again

I was also thinking about leaving it blank, Has anyone applied and received a FPID in NJ without having a drivers license yet? With my luck if I leave it blank they (NJSP) will automatically deny me..

 

The only documents I currently have are a Passport, Birth Certificate, etc. and non driver photo ID (going to get that this week).

If it is a NJ issued photo ID, there should be a number on it anyway. A1234-56789-012345

This. When that number is run through CJIS or NCIC2000 during your background check, it will return all of your information.

dont mean to sound anal about it but...if you got the photo ID from the county seat; thats all it is..i'm curious why you keep saying its a non driver photo ID...did you get it from the DMV ?...I think a "non" driver "DL" for ID purposes only, is possible if you retain a previous DL from one state while having a current/valid DL from another state in which you presently reside...your social security # will show any history more than a recently aquired photo ID..for now all that will prove is your current resident status.....when you submit the forms tell the leo you dont have a DL and you'll be just fine....if you put a non DL # in that space it will come up, not on file..see what i mean?..

An ID-only ID from NJ DMV will have a number that brings up all information that a driver's license would pull up, and will just have a note saying that it is ID-only, and not for driving.

apox upon me..I never thought it was possible to get a non driver photo ID from the DMV..the non driver part threw me off :facepalm: ...my first thought was a county id..just didnt want to see HK make an innocent mistake......live n learn right...

Hi everyone, Well I put my FPID off and I'm going next week to apply. I have a valid NJ drivers examination permit that's basically a piece of paper with my DOB, name, address, etc but no photo. I also have a Atlantic County photo ID...

 

According to MVC you can't have a non driver ID and examination permit (only allowed one or the other) SO will that piece of paper (examination permit) and County ID plus my current US passport be enough to satisfy the state???

 

After reading the application over I'm unsure what to put in the DL number box, my non-photo examination permit number or my county ID number..

If I can use the drivers examination permit number, what do I do when purchasing a long-arm if I have no photo DL?????

 

This is beyond confusing and the State Police could care less when I call.

 

Regards

 

Mike

I assume that you intend on getting your Driver's License because you acquired an examination permit. You will have your license way before your get your FPID. You will then have your photo DL when you go to buy a firearm. IMO, you should use the 15 digit number on the permit.
