    Well, my Florida CCW License Lapsed while I was in AZ. Do I need to start all over with a CCW class and License, or do I just pay late for my reapplication?

    "If you fail to renew your license by its expiration date, you may renew it up to six months after it has expired. However, there is a late fee of $15 for renewing after the expiration date. If your license has been expired for longer than six months, it cannot be renewed.

    If your license has been expired for longer than six months, it cannot be renewed. You must apply for a new license."

    Here in Bama they told me that I had to let mine expire before they allowed me to renew mine. Which seems like a weird rule. My memory is terrible and I wanted to do mine early was I had it on mind, vs forgetting again and be expired when pulled over ot whatever the case may be.

    Here in FL they send you notice 90 days before experation. Now if your spouse gets the mail, and you take 2 month or longer vacations, well one thing can lead to another. Bet I'm not the only one that ever let their CCW License lapse?

    Yeah. At least here in Bama they don't make ya jump thru hoops to get one as far as classes etc. It's all over with in like 5 mins and you're gone

    I would be tempted to wait and see what happens with the constitutional carry legislation.
    I've only got until April if lakelandmusic post is confirmed. May not have enough time if I desire to carry daily? But since GMA won't be home until March, guess I could repeat the initial process again if need be. Perhaps the time has come to leave the sidearm in the truck for a spell?

    He’s correct, but your ccw is expired till you renew it.
    be careful till you get it renewed.

    Make the appointment at the tax office in Pace. Was amazed how painless it was. Literally under 10 minutes to walk out with my newly renewed permit.

    Florida law states no carry until renewed. If you don't meet the deadline you would have to repeat the process.
