blu46and2,

welcome to the forum and to TX. Are you a TOOL fan by chance?

Tool is awesome

Thanks for all the kind welcomes. Yes, TOOL fan, that is where the handle comes from. Great song!

OK, thanks that's the way that I interpreted it as well. I've already changed my address information with FL state but haven't gotten new plastic yet. It's 15 bucks, it's on my to do list. Thanks for helping.

i could be wrong, but if you are now a resident of texas, then your florida license is no longer valid.....

You're right: you're wrong.

Lots of Texas residents (including some forum members here) legally carry with a Florida CWP instead of a Texas CHL. The law makes no distinction about residency: a Florida CWP is valid in Texas.

I'ver recently relocated to the Plano, TX area to be closer to my family, beside the economy in FL is in the gutter and I don't see it coming out any time soon.

Welcome to the forum blu46and2! Glad to have you with us.

As you can see from the above posts, there is a wealth of information here on the forum, and a great bunch of people to get to know.

What part of this great State do you now reside?

I figured you were by the handle. I dont think it would come from anywhere else. That is prolly my favorite TOOL song.

One of the great things about Florida is you don't have to pay for new plastic unless you want to. If you notify them of your address change the license is still valid. Plus you can do your address change online FREE.

The law does not require a concealed weapon licensee to obtain a replacement license after a change of address. You can continue to carry your current license until it expires.

Thanks, I've already done so. I appreciate all the help.

Once you have a residence you need to apply for a TX DL within 90 days I think.
