usa1, truer words have never been spoken! My gosh, I can't believe I've learned so much from this forum since joining it.

Re: Talked to the office of the Chairman of the Licensing and
I've just elaborated and/or clarified my own question.joe817 wrote:I didn't either. And I agree. There's nothing in the statues that mention IRS. only:Chip wrote:......I called DPS this morning and spoke with a very nice, helpful lady (apparently this is unusual). She went through the process with me - I didn't realize, for instance, that DPS queries the IRS. Why? The statute says nothing about that.
"Sec. 411.172. ELIGIBILITY. (a) A person is eligible for a license to carry a concealed handgun if the person:
(1.)
.
.
.
(11) has not been finally determined to be delinquent in the payment of a tax or other money collected by the comptroller, the tax collector of a political subdivision of the state, or any agency or subdivision of the state;"... {etc,etc,etc}.
Can someone please elaborate and/or clarify???
I called the DPS helpline, and spoke to an admin. specialist named Marian. She said positively that if one has an IRS tax lien,
.it will NOT disqualify one from applying for and receiving a CHL. DPS does NOT query the IRS. We are only concerned with monies owed to the state, including child support
Marian was very knowledgeable and helpful She's been with DPS since 1999.
And a special thanks to usa1 for helping me research this. THANKS usa1!!
