does new address require new carry permit?

State Statute still covers them as well. It was how I worked all my years even after NE passed the CHP.
City Ordnance has always been back-n-forth on the matter as well.

Yes, unfortunately. There really should be a part of the law that provides for a grace period for moves within the state. Being unable to legally carry for a period time because of a change of address is completely asinine, in my estimation. On that note, concealed is concealed.

Actually you cant carry after you have applied for a new DL (they invalidate the old DL and give you a temporary with new addy) till you recieve your new DL . Plus the fact that when you apply to the State Patrol, you have to return your permit to them. It took 2 weeks from the time I mailed mine off till I recieved the new permit.

I sat in line for about an hour and a half to get a new driver's license with my new address on it.  They gave me a paper copy of a new one and told me that I would get the real one in the mail in awhile.  They did not take my old one, which I am still carrying.

I called the state patrol office and asked them what I needed to do for my chp.  They told me to download the same form that is used to apply for a new one, fill it out, and check the box that says change personal information (i.e., address in my case), and mail that form to the Lincoln office with a copy of my new driver's license.  They did not tell me to send in my permit (presumably they already know I have one). 

So unless I was given bad information, I can keep my old permit and driver's license with matching addresses until I get both of the new ones.  This is a more efficient process than I had expected (except for the long wait at the motor vehicles office).

Interesting, I just went and reread the Concealed Handgum Permit Act, nothing in the act itself requires the address on your permit to be current. It only comes from the rules created by the State Patrol, which they have the power to do. They simply required that you update your address within 30 days, the same amount of time as you have to update your drivers license.

So under the law and administrative rules as written if you move Friday and got a new drivers license on Monday you would still have 26 days that your permit is valid to get it updated. It does not say that the addresses need to match, only that you can present both the permit and your drivers license/ID card/military ID if carrying.
