ON-LINE APPLICATION QUESTION

#1

Post by Larry_K »

After you fill out the on-line application and get your packet in the mail how long do you have before you have to take your class and test? Short and simple, does it expire after a certin amount of time?

Thanks,
Larry

When you apply online the application will expire automatically in one year.

As others have said, you have one year to send in your application. If you wait over a year, you can and should still use the same application, but you will have to pay the fee again. Your initial TR-100 (training certificate) is good for two years, but all renewal applications must be sent in within six months of taking the class.

Austin has informed me in the past that the 12 month for new CHL or 6 month for renewal CHL expiration date begins with the earliest date on the tr-100. But, of course only if they are different. I have run across this when someone had taken the class portion and wants a later date for the range qualification due to time or scheduling or even failing the qualification test.

I believe you are correct that the online application may expire in one year. But, I think you will also loose any monies paid online. OUCH! Not good. Get-Er-Done and mailed in asap.

Hello,

I had a question on how long it takes (generally) to receive the packet once you completed the online app? I did mine on Saturday.

I do realize that there is a holiday involved in the time frame too.

Does anyone think I should have my packet by December 6th (date of my CHL course)?

During a "normal" week, I did my online app on Tuesday and had the packet form the state the following Monday. So I'd GUESS you'll have yours before you take your class.

That was what I was hoping (under 'normal week' circumstances of course).

Thanks Morgan.
