Current WA CPL Wait Time

[9ssxx3332fs]

Went to the Sheriff's office in Vancouver on March 16th, was in and out in 20 minutes. They said it would be 30 days, still nothing. Anybody else experience longer than 30 day wait for CPL in Clark County? Debating whether I should call or stop in to check up on this, but wanted to give them enough time, too.

A simple phone call should get you an answer. I believe that the "Official" maximum time is 45 days.

Well you can now renew up to 90 days prior and still be "legal" for a long time after. You're good to go!

In the current political climate I figure things are going to take longer. They had a flood of new applications. Going back to when my Dad and Brother went in for theirs, when everything was fine... turn around was just 10 days.

I've known "Gun Guy" Dupties to run a Records Check from their car and then issue, during the same stop. But, ya that a couple of years ago. I do know of some same day issuing being done but it does depend upon the Agency.

CPL renewal in Snohomish County (North of King County representing Seattle and Bellevue). I did the renewal online on September 16, 2021 and got the approval email on October 4, 2021. CPL to arrive in mail soon.

So the CPL renewal was approved in less than three weeks. Not too bad.

I just renewed on line yesterday. We'll see how long it takes.

My original took 4-5 weeks. Renewal was quick. Pierce county sheriff department. Now that your local law enforcement has to also complete a secondary background check on all firearm sales that apply, it may take longer.

Just applied online today for my original in snohomish county. Earliest fingerprint appointment was 29nov

Original application in February.
Fingerprinting in July - reportedly would take 30 days to mail.
Inquired as to it's whereabouts yesterday.
Did get a prompt response that volume is the reason for the delay and that it should arrive soon.
