AAllen, It was suggested I post my experiance here, that you may be doing some tracking of issues.

So my first time permit, new, hit the 47 day mark and I called the NSP.
Got a hold of someone, mabye a Nacy?, who told me it was in a ready to permit status and could be another 2-3 weeks. I mentioned that at 45 days they were to issue, I called temporary, a permit and then do the background check. She didn't seem to know anything about that and after more discussion about the law and 45 days for a new, she was gonna go have my file moved to the front of the list and put a rush on it.
Another week went by and no permit. I called again to speak to the same women who stated they were working on early march applications. I applied Mar 16th. Again I mentioned the law and she stated she did not know what the law said. I mentioned it was on the NSP website, to which she replied she is not a NSP employee. Abit more discussion and I informed her I would be escalating this to a supervisor, to which I was told she would have them work my application tomorrow (today 5/10).

So where do I take it from here?

Well,as for me,they have about four years to get it fixed. I imagine I'll be my most charming self on day six of my renewal process wanting my permit. Whether or not my old one is expired won't be the point. The statute says after 5 days,so where is it? I lost my copy of Dale Carnegie's "How To Win Friends And Influence People". I truly hope it gets straightened out before then, I dislike being upset.

And if the Colonels office doesn't seem concerned enough, then you should write the Governor's office

Did anyone have any luck with the state Ombudsman?

Randy · « **Reply #47 on:** May 10, 2012, 07:57:59 PM »

Email all three Gov., Colonel and Ombudsman.

RedNeckson · « **Reply #48 on:** May 10, 2012, 08:09:40 PM »

I did 3 E-Mails - 1 to the Governors office, 1 to the LT. Governor and 1 to Ombudsman.
A few days latter I received a phone call from the LT. Governor office, a few days latter my CHP showed up along with a letter from the Colonels office stating that he had received a call from the Governors office about my concern of my CHP not showing up in the legal allotted time. And then I received a e-mail from Ombudsman, I was not to impressed with the response from Ombudsman , I think I was at 56 days when I received my permit - there you have it - Neal

I am 7 "calendar days" out from having mine.....sounding like it will be about 20 more days

Will call the CID on Monday which will be 3 days before it should be in my mailbox

HuskerXDM · « **Reply #50 on:** May 10, 2012, 09:29:57 PM »

Red, if you don't mind my asking, what was the response from the Ombudsman? I've never heard of this office at the state level before this issue came up.

Submitted my renewal request in Omaha April 23 and found the new permit in my home mailbox (Bellevue) today May 12. The renewal letter enclosed with the new permit was dated May 4.

I’m still waiting on a first time permit. This Monday will be Day 48. I’ve called the NSP in Scottsbluff and have gotten the same song and dance that it sounds like everyone else has.

I guess I kind of look at it like Hunters Ed. I don’t mind taking the class. Let’s face it, there are people out there that shouldn’t even own a gun tell they get some instruction. But……then it should run as smooth Hunters Ed. Hunters Ed is the law and the “people” voted it into law. But it doesn’t cost to take a Hunters Ed class, and you get your card in the time frame the law states you will. (At least my kids did) And if they are so shorthanded, then they need to hire more employees. How tough is that to figure out? Where will the money come from?.....how about the tax dollars of the “people” that voted in the law. They wanted it…..have them pay for it. Who pays for Hunters Ed?

Day 48. Called the CID today. Got the same answer as I did last week. Application is approved…all they have to do is print the license. She said about another week………

Howard C · « **Reply #54 on:** May 17, 2012, 01:16:42 PM »

Day 51 "working" days.....still no permit

RedNeckson · « **Reply #55 on:** May 17, 2012, 01:44:53 PM »

51 "Working" days is way out of line - Have you sent any e-mails out to the Governor,Lt Governor, and Ombudsman ? I think the e-mails will get more response. - Phone calls don't seem to have as much results --- Neal

Day 47.

I called the CID office and they are saying 2 more weeks. I politely asked about the statute, and said that I understand they are not intentionally being lazy, that I understand there has been a surge in applicants, and I am sure they are doing everything they can. She gave me a brief runaround about how blah blah blah, and I again politely referred to the statute.

I explained to her briefly about my situation in the neighborhood, and how I am witness to 2 violent, possibly gang-related, crimes and expecting a court summons. She said she would talk to her supervisor and call me back.

She called back in a couple minutes to inform me my permit will be in the mail tomorrow.

She also mentioned that they have received funding to hire temps and work Saturdays and Sundays to get caught up. Looks like all the calls to the NSP and Obudsman's office have produced some results.

Since Bruning is going to be Nebraska's Attorney General for a while... and I'm ok with that, maybe he would be willing to take the bull by the horns and get some REAL improvements in this process. I see no reason it should take any longer than what it takes to call in a NICS check when buying a firearm. A 7 working-day turn around should really not be that much to ask.

Theodore · « **Reply #58 on:** May 17, 2012, 06:58:48 PM »

Keep after them! Be polite - know the law - insist upon your rights - don't let them give you the runaround.

omaharj · « **Reply #59 on:** May 17, 2012, 07:52:54 PM »

Has anyone gone in on day 46 and insisted they receive their permit that day? If excuses are OK and being close to the law is OK,do I get a free pass for speeding on the interstate? I know the sign says 65,but, things are kinda hectic for me lately,is 75 close enough to the law?
I'm not suggesting people get all hardcore about it,but it sounds like people are asking,please, if it's not too much trouble,can I have my 2nd amendment rights? I look forward to the day when our rights have a greater priority.
Mini rant over,heheh.
Anyway, I have years before I renew,I'm sure I won't have to walk the walk,
