Once you moved and applied for a change of address on your FID can you buy long guns with the old old one while you wait for the new one?

fid & drivers liscense must match Luis

No

 

Also, both need to have the correct address on them even though they match.

 

 

Thank you!

I guess my wallet will be very happy for a few months...

What they said. If you got to keep yours, good for you. My PD took mine while they were going through the process of changing my address. Luckily they got it done quickly.

NJ Admin Code 13:54-1.11

(a) Persons shall apply for a duplicate firearms purchaser identification card to replace a lost, stolen or mutilated card, or in the case of a change of residence by the holder, within 30 days of such loss, theft, mutilation, or change of residence.

 

NJ Statute 39:3-36.

a. A licensed operator shall notify the chief administrator of any change in residence within one week after the change is made. Notice shall be in such form and shall contain such information as the chief administrator may require. Upon notification, and payment of a fee of $5 for the license in addition to the digitized picture fee, the chief administrator shall provide the licensed operator with a new license.

 

Technically, both are not valid until changed. Once changed, they both should match.

My address change took 10 1/2 weeks to complete in my town so good luck. I ordered a Rock River 4 weeks after applying thinking that I will be fine... The permit came in one day before the rifle and then I got the run around that they were to busy for me to pick it up. I also emailed @ the 4,8,9, & 10 week mark. I received the run around about getting it signed by the chief at the 8 week mark. I should of applied for pistol permits when I did it because I heard from my local gun shop that my town has a 90 day period for Pistol permits.

I moved from Woodbridge to Old Bridge. Took OB 6 months process my "change of address", which for all intents and purposes is a complete re-application for a FID. That was after I started calling every 2 days at month 5 and asked to make an appointment with the chief. For some reason I got a call the next day saying it was ready. Go figure.

 

Knowing what I know now, I would commence harassment at day 29.

my pd took mine too, make sure you take out some permits while your at it, i found out its the same exact process all over, you might as welll..
