Does anyone know if you have to complete the shooting proficiency and submit the CHL-100 before you will be assigned to one of the renewal classes in August/September? The instructions seem to indicate you don't (see below) - you can take the class, then submit the CHL-100, but you won't get your new certificate until both are completed.

Once an Instructor has completed the renewal retaining class and submitted the CHL-100, a new
certificate will be mailed.

1. NRA

3. Some other authority/training school

The form seems to imply otherwise, since "at least one" option is acceptable, and one of those options is "...applying for the renewal..."

While submitting my application for renewal, I noticed the fee was described as "Instructor Certification Renewal (Non License)".

What does the "Non License" refer to? It seems to imply that I don't currently have a license, which I do. Does it mean there could be a mistake with my records?

Or does it simply mean I'm only renewing my Instructor Certification, not my actual LTC?

The CHL-90 includes these two options under the "must meet at least one of the qualifications" section:

• * I am currently certified by the National Rifle Association of America (NRA) as a handgun instructor. (Please attach a legible copy of your class certification and credentials you received for the handgun firearm instructor’s training course(s) you have completed.)
  
  * I regularly instruct others in the use of handguns and I am applying for the renewal of my License to Carry a Handgun Instructor Certificate.

This seems to imply that if I am renewing my current LTC instructor certificate, I can check that last box and don't have to submit anything related to NRA instructor certification. Is that correct?

Is there a specific definition of what "...regularly instruct others..." means in terms of frequency of classes?
