I just got back from my police department.  The clerk wanted me to sign both forms (STS 33 and SP66) with her present, so that scraped the STS 33 as I had already signed and dated.  I am currently a full time college student and have no job (did not tell her this), she wanted "unemployed" under the employer section if I was as such.  To me it seems to put me in a negative light, which I don’t like. I also got the finger print form, but I am really hesitant to give this Morphotrak company any information let alone my finger prints.  They ask for, among other things, social security number as well as occupation, employer name and address.  From reading the form it seems if you show up to be fingerprinted with an “incomplete” form you will be out $11 plus your time, no exceptions.  Any guidance on how to fill this form out with the minimal amount of info and the fingerprinting process in general?   I was already uneasy about this whole process, but the fingerprinting part has noticeably added to it.

we all used morpho for fingerprints.

 

I dont think by putting unemployed will hurt you, I'm sure others have done it

I put unemployed when I applied since I was a full time college student and my local PD had no issues with it.  Actually its one less step in the process for them.  AS far as morphotrack every had to do that just fill it out completely and send it in.  I did mine on line, so much easier.

I actually got printed by my pd and I put "student" on some of my p2p without issue. Granted this was a few years ago

As everyone else said, unemployed has no bearing on your application. It's "shall issue". You can only be denied for the statutory reasons (convicted felon, domestic violence, mental health, etc).

As for morphotrack, they're the company we all had to use. Just fill out the form and get printed.

And then get ready to wait...

I got my FID when I was a college freshmen.  That was a looooong time ago so I don't remember what I put on the form but not having a job didn't stop the process.  You'll be fine. 

Morpho is the state's fingerprint place.  Either do it, or move to a different state and buy a firearm.

 

This process warrants full disclosure, if you're not ready to give that then you're going to be hard pressed to get your FID and P2P, assuming you want a pistol.

 

Why are you trying to avoid putting information in?

Yes unfortunately its a very intrusive and humiliating process. 

 

We feel your pain and indignation.

Assemblyman Cryan, welcome to the forums. 

Just got my FID back on Wednesday. I put Student/Not Employed. P2Ps say Student as occupation.
