    125$ if you have never had a permit, i think its 100$ if you already have a permit but you hve to let your permit expire before getting a lifetime license

    You can renew if your current permit is within 180 days of expiration.

    Unfortunately if you let your permit expire, then you pay the full $125. I found this out yesterday when I filled out the paperwork and got fingerprinted at the local sheriff's office.

    On a limited time permit, they are not "renewed" You must reapply each time. However, subsequent renewals do not take as long. Thank Mitch for the Life Time Permit.

    I can vouch that Howard County has alot of permits run through there department. They are both Lifetime and 4 year. Its kinda crazy how many people will only get the 4 year cause they don't want to spend the extra money.
    I almost got the 4 year because I didn't have enough for the lifetime.

    So what happens if the indiana legislature repeals the lifetime ltch?

    Then depending on the wording of the bill, you'll either lose your license, have it grandfathered, or everyone gets a free puppy. Seriously, that's such an open-ended question that there's no way to answer it. What happens is whatever the bill says will happen, but since it hasn't been written yet, there's no way to know.

    And, if written, I think it would be unlikely to pass the Governor's desk without veto. So we've got four years (barring disasters).

    I'd worry more about an Obama "national no carry" law.

    If that BS does happen oneday, I would hope it would be like laws against rifles, handguns, flash suppressors and magazine capacities. You would have a pre-ban license and it would still be legal. That is why I think a lifetime license is so important and the small extra cost such a bargin.

    How are the new lifetime licenses issued? I heard that they amend your drivers license with the lifetime LTCH :dunno:

    I don't want it attached to my driver's license. The one has nothing to do with the other and when I need to show my ID, there's no reason the person looking at it needs to know I'm licensed to carry.

    Eh I dunno, I used to show my DOD Identification when they asked for my ID - guess I just wanted to be cool :cool: Good point about that though - it is getting better to be discrete and non advertised in these times. :ar15:

    Where's the bacon?
    Rep. Jackie Walorski had proposed a bill to add an identifier to our driver licences indicating LTCH. I had opposed it initially, then was told what a strong supporter of gun rights she is. Apparently, her intention was to make things easier for a LTCH holder, due to the requirement that we must be carrying our license while armed. Additionally, the marking could have easily been unobtrusive-perhaps one of the "endorsements" with a single letter code at the bottom. As it turned out, however, I don't think her bill was ever heard, so it's a moot point. I can see her reasoning, but as has been said, in this political climate, probably better to have fewer identifiers than more.

    Blessings,
