NH Resident Carry Permit...References Question...
- Thread starter Roadblock
- Start date
When I moved to New Hampshire, I didn't know that many people to act as references, so if I recall correctly, I used Mass. residents. Added to that, I don't think any of the references were contacted either....
Same for me. I used references from NY and MA.
They were never contacted.
I received my permit in five days.
.
In addition to the name & address, also give them a phone number.
All of mine were not NH residents and neither were my lady's.
As far as I know they only contacted one for each of us, my neighbor across the street (for me) and my brother-in-law in MA (for her).
14 days on the button from application to delivery.
I used 3 names from CT and only 1 phone number (which was a wrong number). No addresses.
I didnt have my address book on me and I just wanted to fill the thing out and be done with it.
I think a couple of the names were spelled wrong.
Nobody was contacted and I got my permit within the week.
Before moving to NH I did have a non-resident permit. When getting the non-resident permit I did cross every T and dot every I though.

I don't understand why they would contact references in NH. We are a 'shall issue" state. If your record is clean you will be approved.
I used a PA resident for one of mine, and a relative at my own address as another. Think "shall issue." Fret no further; just get that application submitted!
Oh, I don't mind listing references; just wasn't sure if they had to be NH residents. The answer I've discovered is: No, they can be anyone.
I also think contacting references is a good idea. Lets be honest, if you list a "reference" who then says you're a crazy POS (within 14 days of when you listed them) you're probably too stupid to be carrying...
A buddy of mine moved from Mass to Effingham NH a few years ago. He applied for his CCW and used me (a Mass resident) as one of his referrences. I was contacted in writing by his local Chief and was asked to reply in writing. The questions were not very intrusive and I answered them truthfully. He then got his permit without much fuss.
When I applied to NH for my non-resident permit, I listed three referrences, One from NH and two from Mass. None of them were contacted. I got mine in 7 weeks.

I got my NH Resident CCW a few days after submitting the application. None of my references were called. Painless and inexpensive.
I got my NH resident the same day. None of my references were contacted. The COP in my town is smart enough to realize than no one is going to give a reference that isn't good.
