Hello Everyone,
This is actually my first post here I noticed there isn't much info on the timeline for a Westchester County Full carry process. I know everyone's process is different and times can vary but I wanted to give a breakdown of the timeline of how my process has gone so far. I am starting from scratch with no permit trying to obtain Full carry.
9/2/2022: Called to make an appointment for an interview and fingerprints with the Westchester County Department of Public Safety Pistol License Unit. Given a Feb 2023 date for the interview and fingerprints.
10/8/22: Did first half of NYS 18-hour class.
10/9/22: Did second half of NYS 18-hour class.
10/21/2022: Called Westchester County Department of Public Safety Pistol License Unit to see if anyone had canceled their appointment and had an earlier interview and fingerprint date. Luckily enough the phone call before me called to cancel a 10/24/22 appointment.
10/22/2022: Did range qualifier for NYS 18-hour class. (Finally obtained the NYS 18-hour certificate after the range day)
10/24/2022: Interview and fingerprint appointment with Westchester County Department of Public Safety Pistol License Unit. (Took about 30 mins.)
2/17/2023: I received a letter stating Judge had signed off on a Target and Hunting pistol permit and the court has scheduled an in-person full carry permit interview with the Judge for the full carry decision.
