Im sorry nader but you are misinformed, I have never heard of anyone having to send in anything for proof of address. Also if you are a DG and you are renewing, you need to fill out form D, and include a current criminal record check and passport photos. Also a form F if applicable. Please do not guess when answering someones question about forms to send and licencing info as they may follow your advice and have there application sent back after 2 months of waiting.


Okay, the last 5-6 that we sent in (different addys) got returned that way asking for proof of residence. Please do not assume that I was guessing.

I should've stated that I'm not a DG, though, and that I was referring to personal production

I had to send in my house insurance info to prove that I lived on my very rural property the first time I registered..now I send it by default.

I renewed my paper work in the second week February, and got a expiration date of March, 25, 2014. I was trying to avoid anything and my paper work not in before march, 31st, 2013. I figured if they were to grandfather on the regulations, better to get in before march, 31st. I was under the impression that they would be giving out 5 gram a day scripts max, and I didn’t want any parts of that. Hope there is longer renewal dates.

It creates a Cluster Fu%K, with longer processing times, perhaps ultimately making them have to go back to the drawing board and map out better logistics for the program.

Just to clear up why I had to send in insurance forms..

I live ruran on one of those Lot, Township type addresses....Some confusion on HC part regarding not being able to get mail delivered (even with a seperate mailing addy).

It cost me 2 months delay on my forms...so I now send it in by default....

This is good to know, thank you. I'm about to send my application in, and I have the same type of address situation.

is it really a delay? every lic is for 12 months unless requested shorter by your doc.

i understand what you mean, but your lic came for 12 months, not 10 right?

yes 12 months in total....but it meant 18 weeks to process my paperwork in total with it having to go back...

Hate to have a renewal get screwed up and have to dump my gear...

Still waiting on my renewal, 10 weeks and counting. Applicant called hc 2 weeks ago, they said it would be ready in 2 weeks, which is now. Called again few days ago, said it would be 2 weeks. Un fucking real, so 3 months for a simple renewal. Also have been waiting about 11 weeks for a simple address change. Anyone else have similar issues?

Ya been almost 12 since we sent our renewal in. Same thing, called a while ago and they said it would be here in 2 weeks. Called again(Almost 20 days later) and they told me it will go out any day. Buncha freakin bs'ers. If they couldn't do it in the estimated time the first time, not sure why we should believe them the second time. Peace GS

So what are you options if your paper doesnt come before your licence expires....

Anyone busted while waiting on a renewal?

You call them and they try assure you it will be alright. They claim the police are supposed to call them before they act. HC says they will let the cops know you are alright.

Just to be clear here again. My renewal is going over 12 weeks waiting now. That's a renewal, not a new PPL. They told me the renewals are taking 8 -10 weeks, but could not explain mine. Peace GS
