Just renewed my PA RESIDENT permit today online

[Podmonkey]

Via my phone. Apparently the backlogs in my area have been worked through- applied for renewal online, received approval 30 mins later and scheduled an apt to pickup my card tomorrow.
Can non residents apply online also? Things are running smooth again it seems.
Also- FWIW, there is no way they bothered to contact my references in that span of time and I seriously doubt they ever will.

I applied online and received my non-resident PA CCW FULL CARRY (boo on NYS) early this year.

What was the turnaround time?

I got a 2 day turnaround for approval and 1 month for an appointment to pick up my permit. This was right in the middle of COVID. The wait times may be shorter now.

Good to hear. Mine expires in 2023 but hopefully they will see the merit in doing it online and can still be done that way by then.

Yeah they certainly seem to be. Hence the thread. Applied for renewal and was approved in the the space of 30 minutes. Picking up the new permit physically tomorrow. But again I am a PA resident somI don't know how it is for non residents. I am also not in a particularly populous county either.
