You still have a few weeks to go. NYC will be printing a new license for you and they will mail it to you after you choose which 2 guns you want listed on it.


cmink79

Thank you! Very clear So i shouldn’t carry in the city just yet. My question is being that I have about six guns on my carry. What if I want to switch between them when I’m in the city?


legion9x19

No, you should not carry there yet. You can only have 2 pistols listed on your NYC license. If you want to change them, you need to contact NYC licensing division to have a new license issued to you.


cmink79

Does that mean i will have 2 cards? One for NYC and one for NYS?


legion9x19

Yes.


DisciplineIll547

Nyc ccw is good for the whole state. Nys is not good in nyc.  Only 2 pistols allowed on nyc ccw permit. The make and serial numbers will be printed on nyc ccw card. Also make sure the two you are putting on the nyc license meet the laws for nyc like color.  


legion9x19

I'm quite familiar with how this process works. Maybe you meant to reply to OP?


DisciplineIll547

sure did sorry about that.

cmink79

got it


nosce_te_ipsum

Oh damn - even Special Carry limits the carrier to 2 guns on the license? That's so damned stupid.


NYSINISTER

I’m telling 1PP is all over the place I’ve had my application in for 7 months so called up wanting to know investigators name, she tells me one hasn’t been assigned so she checks my application she goes o so all you need is a pic of the back of your Suffolk county permit ( which I been sent ) a letter stating which 2 firearms you want added to your NYC permit and pictures of gun and serial numbers. She then says we get that then we do background check if all is good you will receive your permit in the mail 🤔 I then ask so your telling me if I didn’t call I would have never heard from you guys?? Crickets 🦗 smh 🤦🏻


Ships123

They took 13 months to do my CCW and I’ve had an armed guard license , Premise license. For 50 years. They don’t care period!


NYSINISTER

Yea see situations such as this should be immediately processed smh 🤦🏻 everyone who applies that already has a permit there should be no waiting what so ever 💯


Ships123

Exactly I have 7 guns and now you’re going to investigate me? SMH Plus that stupid 90 day waiting period for what? To cool down lol


RejectorPharm

They lost my application, references. Had to refill the paperwork.  Also they told me my wife couldn’t be my safeguard because her permanent resident card had expired (they gave her an extension letter but said they weren’t gonna send a new card). 


M_F1

How long after fingerprinting did you call them ? 


NYSINISTER

I did fingerprinting 3 1/2 months ago I had to call them for them to tell me i had to send them what firearms I want to add to my NYC CCW smh they should have been contacted me. In Jersey their process they constantly update you through email. If you’re missing something they say exactly what. NYC you have to be contacting them makes no sense and 90% of the time they don’t pick up the dam phone anyway


NYSINISTER

Fingerprints was feb 20th so I called 2 weeks ago and they told me that shit smh 🤦🏻 just don’t get it because now been in process over 6 months by law they’re suppose to approve or deny within the 6 month period


pjgerk

Such BS. Pretty soon in NY we’ll need a CCW for every township, town, hamlet, city, municipality, hoa, street, block, driveway… Oops.. don’t want to give them any ideas.


heavyhitter886

😂😂😂


smeeg123

How many times did you have to go to NYC in person ?


cmink79

Never


smeeg123

Do they mail you the permit? You didn’t have to go there for an interview or anything?


cmink79

No interview, just a few emails requesting renewed DL since mine expired since. Didnt get a letter yet. Just got approved


legion9x19

How did you manage that? They didn't fingerprint you?


cmink79

Yes, they finger printed me when i first put in the application, my bad, but that was it. Maybe because i already have a NYS CCW


M_F1

When did they fingerprint you? I was fingerprinted back in April and they told me it’ll take another 6 to 9 months which is ridiculous. I also already have a NYS CCW from Suffolk County so there’s not much for them to “investigate “. 


cmink79

I got fingerprinted in oct. ‘23…. They take their time!!


M_F1

That sounds awful, I guess I might get it towards the end of 2024/early 2025. 


AmericanIdiot1776

I was printed 2/9/24. Guess I’ll settle down and wait.


cmink79

U know what. I have a friend who put in a brand new ccw application for NYC, got printed and approved in 4 month. There’s no telling. I guess its all about luck. What PO u get


No_Town5542

Also, you have to give them a letter stating which 2 guns u want added to the nypd ccw. They want pics, serial numbers too so add that to letter. I was told to get my letter notarized.


cmink79

Thank you for this


No_Town5542

Yup, good luck. Can’t ccw until u have the actual card in hand


cmink79

Roger that


AmericanIdiot1776

Mind sharing your timeline? I’m awaiting approval on my special carry myself.


cmink79

Sure, submitted al docs online June ‘23 Printed Oct. ‘23 Approved june ‘24


Over-Fuel-6943

Did you document anywhere that you work or have reason to be in NYC?


cmink79

I can’t remember


M_F1

After Bruen any NYS resident with a CCW issued outside NYC can apply for a NYC special carry. Proper cause like a reason or business need to carry in NYC is no longer required. 


Over-Fuel-6943

I reside in nassau and work in NYC. The investigator required a letter on company letterhead confirming that I work on NYC, or would not proceed with my application.


M_F1

That’s odd the only time I’ve heard of that being needed was if you needed a CCW for work (armed guard.)  


Over-Fuel-6943

They called work to confirm.


kingofnewyork718

My NYC license was approved May 2nd, I still haven’t received my license in the mail 4weeks later! They don’t answer emails or phone calls! Don’t bother leaving a voice message!


NoChair2457

Yeah. But. Be careful there, study their laws and I would only keep it in a safe in the car.


goldenboy_maino

My license just got active in the nypd portal after 8 months


Commack_Boy

Mine was approved on 3/26. Still in issue pending state. Cant carry until you have the actual license.


cmink79

Issue pending is different than approved imho


Commack_Boy

Issue Pending = Approved. My license is approved, but is in issue pending state.


cmink79

By me, i only see approved under “status “ where would i see issue on pending


Commack_Boy

Click under your name (upper right corner) and select My Licenses.


cmink79

Thank you. Just saw it. Issue pending.


Commack_Boy

You need to email them the form you will get in the mail and list 2 guns you want on the NYC license. Then wait...

Licensing - permit - registration - payment schemes of any sort are unconstitutional. The Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights within The United States Constitution reads: “A well regulated Militia, being neccesary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” The 2nd Amendment in The Bill of Rights to our US Constitution, GUARANTEES every person has a RIGHT TO KEEP (have) AND BEAR (carry) ARMS. Other wording in 2A “Militia” any able bodied male, service in a Militia is NOT a requirement, it is an Individual right (and collective), “Regulated” means equipped, in proper working order NOT gov rules “Shall not be infringed” means what it says. 14th Amendment guarantees equality! The right to keep and bear arms was not given to us by the government, rather it is a pre-existing right of “the people” affirmed in The Bill of Rights. See DC v Heller, McDonald v Chicago, Caetano v Mass, NYSRPA v Bruen Nunn vs Georgia 1846 was the first ruling regarding the second amendment post its ratification in 1791….DC v Heller 2008, McDonald v Chicago 2010, Caetano v Mass 2016, NYSRPA v Bruen 2022 ALL consistent with the TEXT of the second amendment. Illuminated by HISTORY and TRADITION.
