Post by jarhead »

When I was 17 prior to serving in the USMC was charged with possession of marijuana - misdeamenor (A,B,C) not sure paid fine and forgot about it. Will this prohibit me from receiving my CHL...36yrs later?

Welcome to the forum. :tiphat:

If it was a misdemeanor possession charge, then the time is well over the limit and you should be eligible. Just make sure to list it on your application and send supporting documentation on the disposition of the charge.
