Good for you. Just curious, why did you wait so long (i.e. many years)?
I hear it doesn't take as long these days...about 4 weeks...
The police officer I talked to today while applying for my permit told me that when they started the lifetime permit it caused a lot of delays.i hope so, it took me almost 12 weeks back in 08 to get mine, turned it in middle of january, it was the last wednesday in april when i got it finally and i hadnt had so much as a speeding ticket at the time on my record
