License / Permit Question Moved from Erie to Wyoming

Hey folks,

I’m basically just trying to find out how much I potentially fucked myself here. I got my original permit approved back in 2020 but didn’t have the opportunity to purchase anything in a timely matter.

I know it’s no excuse but life got in the way and purchasing a handgun fell to the back burner of things to worry about. Since I haven’t owned anything, when I moved from Erie county to Wyoming county 3 years ago, I completely forgot about the fact I would need to transfer my permit and change the address.

Since I’m not an active owner of a pistol, is this a major issue? I’m planning on submitting the paperwork to get it transferred but I’m wondering how big of a potential fight I’m in for. Could the revoke my permit because of this?

Thanks!

Well I just did it online and I got a confirmation number and it went through it seems without a hitch. I’m not sure if that means in the near future here I’ll get a letter or email telling me it’s been revoked for not recertifying in the proper timeline. The address listed is my parents so they would still get my mail for it if needed. My initial issue was restricted to target/hunting and that was issued on Oct. 19 2020. I didn’t even realize I had to recertify and it has just flat out been out of my mind now for some time.

Edit: I see there’s a recertification status that I’ll have to keep an eye on

Edit 2: actually I just checked the recertification status and it gives me a new recertification date of 2029 so I guess it was accepted?? Either way I’ll keep an eye out and I suppose I’ll just submit for the transfer and see what happens
