Does anyone know what the time frame is normally for this? I mailed out the application and a check over two months ago and they cashed the check about three weeks after that. It is taking a lot longer than it did to get the Maine resident and I am not sure if this is normal.

That is very odd, the website said they are processed within 14 days but mine is still in process 40 days later. The woman said that she can not tell anything more than it is still in process I have absolutely nothing that would show up on a background check so this is a little strange for me. Is it posibble they are just really back logged?

I would guess that maybe your paperwork got lossed or something like that. I have always gotten mine within a week, but I live in state. I'd call them again and have them look into it further. I can't imagine they are backlogged that bad to cause that long of a dilay. Something sounds wrong.

This is a serious problem right now, compounded by a number of problems, including understaffing, backlogs, and in the recent past the printer cartridge running out of ink.

I recently got mine and it took quite a long time as well. It was 2 months after they cashed the check when I called. The lady was very nice and told me it was approved and had been put into batching. What that is I have no idea. It was about 2 more weeks till I got it. She told me they were about a month and a half behind.

Still waiting for my resident permit, Tuesday will be 14 days. I've been open carrying in the interim.

I suspect local PD might just be yanking my chain. We'll see what happens by Tuesday.

Really unusual.  Mine usually takes no more than 4 days. Mind if I ask what town?

Check and App. sent: July 5

Check cashed: August 14

License received: August 16




i checked my bank account last night online.  and the check had not been cashed according to the web site.  however, after the mail came, which was 20 minutes ago, i checked my balance again.  and the money was gone.  according to the copy of the check online, it was processed on the 14th.

i think it took less time to get my MA resident license.

When I got mine A few years ago I had it back in line 10days.  A friend of mine did his about 2 months ago and had a similar experience to what you guys are having so they must have a problem.

I sent my app. in early June and got it back this past week. They sat on my check for a long time though once it was cashed I think the permit went out within days.

My friend mailed his NH non-resident application the last week of July and he received his license the second week of September.  He said it expires 4 years and 8 months from the date it was issued.

Does anyone know if a non-res license is void when you become a NH resident or does it just get converted to a NH res license? TIA
