I have read all the posts on non-resident permits and understand that there are different states with different reciprocity agreements. I understand the map but my question is a little different.
I live in Oklahoma. I am waiting for my fla Non-resident permit. Can I count on the Fla permit being honored in OK since OK is my legal residence? I have not seen anything in OK law stating that residents must have an OK permit. I know Fla has reciprocity with OK and vice versa, but my question deals with using an out of state non-residence permit in lieu of my resident state's permit. I fully intend to get an OK permit as soon as a change in the law takes place, hopefully by this comming November.
Does anyone else do this? Help!
It is my understanding that most states require you to have a permit in your home state as a condition for granting a non-resident permit. If you applied for your permit as a resident of Oklahoma, but do not have an Oklahoma permit, then it is doubtful that FL will approve your application.
Incidentally, what is it about OK permit law that you are waiting to see changed?
UT doesn't. UT performs their own background check and doesn't care if you have a res permit in your own state. I'm pretty sure that FL does their own background check also. You are right though, many states, like PA, do not perform background checks for non-res permits and therefore use your res permit as proof. It's state by state, but not all states require you to have a res permit in your own state.
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but if your state honors a FL non-res permit, it shouldn't matter that you're a resident of that state. If a FL non-res permit is good in OK, yours is as good as anyone else's.
