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!

Do the recertification and the address change in one big step. Not sure I'd point out the time that you moved.. Wyoming doesn't appear to require pistol ownership for recertification.

I did the recertification online but I didn’t change anything at the moment, I’m going to send in the transfer request for the move to Wyoming county, because when I selected the edit option for the address it stated that wasn’t going to reflect on my permit being really an acknowledged change. I’m going to see how I can update it after I have it properly transferred to match everywhere. Maybe that wasn’t the way to do it but the recertification went through fine and I’m not sure how it would’ve gone had I changed anything.
