Four years ago when I received my permit from NH there was no requirement to have a permit from the state you reside. When I went to renew this year I was sent back my packet with a cover letter telling me I couldn't apply without a copy of my resident permit. My home state (RI) is a may issue with ridiculous hoops to jump through that I have not had the time nor money to work through. I have permits from UT, AZ, FL, ME and NH this was acceptable back in 2012. Does anyone know when and why the requirement changed?
