2013 Operation Establish Compliance Updates!

 

As many of you may already know, NJ2AS' program Operation Establish Compliance (OEC) was created to address the problems in NJ with municipalities that place extra requirements on citizens that apply for a Firearms ID Card or Handgun Purchase Permit. We are pleased to report the following updates for 2013.

 

11/12/2013

 

Hightstown: After being contacted by our attorney, Hightstown agrees to remove their illegal additional forms.

Berkeley: Berkeley agrees to remove their additional forms based on objections brought forward by NJ2AS members. Berkeley agrees that they may not permanently delay processing an application if a reference fails to return the reference form and changes the language on their website.

Ewing: The Ewing Township Attorney notified the NJ2AS Attorney that they will eliminate mandatory appointments and the reference to "waiting periods" on their website.

Excellent progress - Thank you!

Good Job!

How do we go about reporting additional towns? Hoboken currently contacts the applicants' employer/boss, in addition to the two references the applicant provides.

Sorry I didnt see you sig.

Berkeley takes forever to send the reference letters. I waited Two months to get a reference letter to fill out for somebody.

And then they claim they haven't received them back.  When I told my buddy that I kept a copy, where would they like me to email or fax it, amazingly, in an instant, they found the reference letter.

 

Coincidence?  Perhaps.  Suspicious?  Definitely.
