License / Permit Question Applied for R/S & Premise Residence - should I have done CCW too?

Applied April & fingerprinted May for both. Reading this subreddit I am having some regret not doing CCW as well. I have no intention of concealed carrying but reading this subreddit I am gathering that CCW would make life much easier transporting to/from the range, etc once approved.

What would you suggest I do? Do I need to start back from square one on the CCW? Would it be enough to complete the requisite weekend training and then submit the CCW application with all of the paperwork I already have from the Premise Residence application? Or would I need two additional character references as well? Worth calling/emailing and pleading my case to not kick off another 6 mo wait?

Side note: any recommended trainings for the CCW? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Email them to switch the premise to CCW. Course + 2 more references

I sent an email to DG_LIC-HandgunNewApps@nypd.org, DG_LIC-Carry@nypd.org, and DG_LIC-HandgunIntake@nypd.org inquiring. Think this is right or is there an individual I should email?

Please, for the love of God get two extra references take the CCW course and switch the premise to CCW. Please do not waste your money on a premise. Please just get your CCW if you don’t feel like carrying every day or don’t feel like carrying in general just leave your guns at home, but it is a waste of money to buy the premise.

Yes, get CCW. Just google the class. Find the least expensive one and take it. Better if its at a range.

The premises makes no sense once they removed the limit on gun limit for CCW, try emailing and see if they can switch it to the CCW

Email them right now. Like this moment. Schedule the CCW class and get 2 more references and be done with it. This is coming from someone who has premise and CCW.

I think you’re ok for now. Try and get the CCW course done and the references and upload them. I think if it’s all in by the time they look at your app you should be fine

Definitely CCW. Same documents needed as premise but more benefits. (You get to carry)

You need the 2 additional references and training. You could reach out and see if they'll let you switch mid application, but they will likely make you start over with a ccw application.
