How long does it take, for the Sheriff's Dept....

... to send the renewal paperwork for my PA Zombie Hunting License - I mean, LTCF?

Mine is due for renewal in August (Allegheny Co.), but I haven't seen squat in the mail yet!

[RONIN4hire]

I dont think they send renewal, take the initiative and go apply ASAP!

Here in York they don't remind ya. You have to go thru the whole process every 5 years. And thats all up to you.

[The War Wagon]

Gotcha! I know in KY, they mailed me a renewal. Just figured they'd do the same here, but I figured WRONG!

[RONIN4hire]

In Beaver County is pretty quick, under an hour and you walk out with permit in hand.
Think it was $25ish? (cash) and filling out a form, mighta asked for references too?

Well guess WHAT? On Friday, I get my renewal notice - AND the application - in the mail, from the Sheriff's office!!!

I make SANTA'S "naughty" list routinely - can't imagine HOW I got on Mullen's good side! I hear he's an "anti!"

I was told (4 years ago) by the York Co Sheriffs office that they send one expiration notice, after that its on you. Also its not a true renewal anymore, paperwork is the same as the initial application.
But I haven't had to renew mine yet, so I can't say if its true.

'Tis true... but it beats driving downtown, TRYING to find a parking meter, walking 47 blocks in the blazing heat, JUST to get the form, then drive BACK home, fill it out, yada, yada, yada.

I'll take this ANY day, living IN Allegheny Co.!

When I applied I filled it out right there in the office. Took me about 10 minutes and they took the $20 processing fee that day, took my pic after they called and told me it was ready to pick up. (Sort of a lie, really. It wasn't printed yet, so it wasn't ready to pick up...)

[The War Wagon]

OK - so I get my renewal in RECORD time (I went downtown a couple Friday's ago - the approval is in my mail the next TUESDAY! ), and went and picked up my new license yesterday, AND....

It looks like it came out of a CRACKERJACK BOX!!! What the FREEP is up with THAT?!?!

My license from '07 is on sturdy, driver's license stock. This thing looks like it'll fly apart after a hot day in July on my hip in my wallet! I'm gonna KEEP carrying my OLD one in my wallet with it, for when this one MELTS apart...
