CCW renewal

Post by bradalucas »

If my permit it beyond 6 months expired do I need to retake courses or anything additional?

By permit you mean you have had a valid Ohio CHL? Others will provide the proper ORC but the short answer is no

That said, don't tarry any loner, get er done :)
Acquisitions thus far:

-Slingshot
-Butter knife
-Soda straw and peas
-Sharpened pencil
-Newspaper roll
--water balloon (*diversionary*)

Yeah, I'm that good

WhyNot is correct. You can renew a license at any time after it expires without additional training, fees, etc. It is simply a renewal just as if you did it on the day before it expired.

If a sheriff's office tries to tell you otherwise, point them to ORC 2923.125 (F)(1)
(a) Except as provided in division (F)(1)(b) of this section, a licensee who wishes to renew a concealed handgun license issued under this section may do so at any time before the expiration date of the license or at any time after the expiration date of the license by filing with the sheriff of the county in which the applicant resides or with the sheriff of an adjacent county...
(Emphasis mine)

Also as WhyNot says, get 'er done!
