Police Science Institute receives a lot of calls regarding Guard Card applications and why their license has not arrived in the mail. Depending on how you applied after taking the class the time length will vary.

Mailed in applications can take anywhere from 8-9 weeks to process. Online submissions can take anywhere from 2-8 weeks.

The Bureau of Security & Investigative Services has a link on their website that lets applicants know what month and date they are on applications. Here is the link: https://bsis.ca.gov/forms_pubs/app_timelines.shtml

If you see that it is past your date that you mailed yours and have not received a “Deficiency Letter” in the mail call them directly (916) 322-4000. They do have a high volume call line so be patient.

Update from Bob Moore of the Sheriff’s Office/CCW Unit

CCW Renewals and Modifications will still need to be picked up downtown at the jail, 1225 “M” Street, when instructed to do so. The other new development is that the Livescan machine has now been installed in the new building (for New CCW Permits) so applicants will no longer have to go downtown after their initial interview at the 770 E. Shaw location.

*Note

Applications for Renewals and Initials are all to be completed online after completing your class.

Modifications to CCW permits require a shooting qualification with a CCW instructor. The modification can be done online after your shooting test.

If you would like to add a new gun to your CCW permit call us (559) 276-9800 to make an appointment. Times will vary on instructor availability.

Fee $20.00 or free to range members.
