I'll be handing in my FID paperwork this evening to the detective on duty.Is it just handing in paperwork? Will there be any questions. Anything I should know before I walk in there?

Probably no questions but you will need a money order for $18. And you probably need both an original and a copy of your birth certificate.

Did you get your prints done yet? Some towns have specific hours for prints.

Become friends with the girls in the records department. They are the ones who push your paperwork through.

They usually don't have change, so make sure you have the exact amount for the permits and app.

Oh- and be prepared to wait...

It seems that when I hand in the paperwork and pay for the application.I also pay for the finger printing and schedule to be printed,if I'm reading it correctly.

prints are done by Sagem Morpho now, you have to sched an appt, you get a case # or whatever it's called

Money order, birth certificate? When I did mine I just wrote them a personal check and they took a quick look at my driver's license. They did ask for a utility bill to prove I actually lived in the town, that surprised me. I did not have that but went out to my car and got my registration and insurance ID and asked if that was good enough, and she said sure.

This is all invaluable information everyone.Thank you for taking the time to respond.I'm not super clear on how much cash I'm actually laying out so I'm showing up with 70 dollars in various bills and a picked full of change. Lol
