I am working on a gun permit application for a client and everything should be done.  A Captain from a police department in Passaic County was nice enough to follow up on my letter of representation.  He informed me that everything is pretty much done but they are waiting on the mental health information from the Passaic County Adjuster’s Office.  Two problems have combined to cause significant delays.  First, at this police station and I am sure many others, applications are double what they were last year.  Second, the Passaic County Adjuster’s Office is backed up by four months due to these increased applications as well as having their staff cut.  I am in the process of helping my client cut through this red tape.

If you have been able to successfully deal with this, feel free to post a comment below.  If you have run into something similar in a different county, please post that as well.
