I applied for a replacement FID (change of address) and two purchase permits in early October. Called the PD recently to check in. The detective was quite nice, but he said there was a problem with the mental-health database (not sure at what level, county or state or whatnot), and this was holding up processing.

 

Has anyone else been given a similar response recently? I wish I had asked more questions, but I got flustered.

 

Thanks

Just got mine. Filed on Dec 20.

didnt some towns metal heatlth records get messed up in Sandy that were stored somewhere effected

Essex county had their mh records ruined by sandy. Theres another thread about this

In Jackson I waited 6 months the first time I filed for permits 4 months the second time. So you are not alone.

Usually get P2P in about 2 - 3 weeks. Recently took 6 weeks. They said the State was backed up with background checks.

Tell NJ2AS, they have the Operation Compliance that seems to be working out well. Many Municipalities are getting their acts together due to NJ2AS pressure.

I applied for a replacement FID as well, also change of address, on 12/18/12 and am still waiting.

I filed for permits a week ago. Wish I asked the clerk how long it takes.

I put in for address change and 2 permits Jan. 3 and received everything Jan. 30...it CAN be done in the prescribed legal timeframe

These days will seem like paradise if the 5 year renewal bill is passed. Imagine if, in addition to initial applications, police departments have to process the constant stream of renewals as well. The bill specifies that the renewals have to go through the exact same process as an initial application, so not like going to the DMV and paying your fee and walking out with a renewed license.

Matty, I'll look for that thread. I think that's the case. I think the detective did say the mental-health records were messed up during Sandy.

FYI, I applied for my FID & PP in Bloomfield on Oct. 26 and still waiting.... 8 months and counting!

I would suggest you write your state representatives, some of us have started to do so.

what are the NJ2AS AND NRA doing for us on this issue?

You didn't get their invitation to the party?

There is no accountability when it comes to firearms permits or law. No one seems to care in this state. Not a priority.
