^^^ have you already paid?
In my opinion......
if you have NOT paid, scrap the application and start over on Sept. 1.
If you already paid, you'll likely (worth calling and asking) lose your $$ if you scrap the application and start over.
Which is less cost, the renewal class or starting a new application after Sept 1.
(as my accounting professor liked to remind us... "Sunk costs are sunk")

Re: HB48: Passed
Makes sense, since not much is changing from a DPS perspective...Charles L. Cotton wrote:This is rank speculation, but my guess is the fee won't go down. DPS still has to do pretty much everything for each renewal application, except look for a CHL-100 in the file. DPS doesn't get the fees, but the Code expressly requires DPS to charge a fee that covers the cost of processing renewals. DPS has to pay $23.50 for every set of fingerprints sent to the FBI and with a lot of folks eligible for the 50% discount (60 yrs and older + veterans), that leaves only $11.50 to cover the rest of their work including manufacturing and mailing of the CHL.RoyGBiv wrote:Any word on the new cost for renewals?
Probably a bit early to ask, since it's not yet been signed into law...
Again, this is just my guess; I have no inside information.
Chas.
The bulk of cost savings will come from eliminating the cost of the renewal class(~$60-75), range fees($?) and ammo (~$30)...
