Lifetime carry permit

[travislawyer812]

I have been a resident of Indiana for 50 years and have a lifetime carry permit. I am moving to Kentucky and need to know if my permit is still good or do I lose it?

Good for what? Neither state requires a license/permit to carry a gun.

Your license will not transfer to your new residence in KY. If you decide, you'll need to apply for a KY resident license. I don't know if IN issues out-of-state licenses, but I'm betting they've stopped after allowing non-licensed carry in Indiana.

If you're no longer an Indiana resident, you're license will be invalid.

Got mine in 2000 moved out of state in 2009 moved back in 2021 got online filed for change of address and updated card. Came in the mail in less than 3 weeks.

Because you became an Indiana resident again. However your license was not valid for the time you were not an Indiana resident.

Correct.
License is basically put on hold once you become a legal resident of another state, but can be easily reactivated after returning as an Indiana resident.

It matters not, I'm of the understanding that shortly the Lifetime permit will cease to exist.

Should have been the first post after the OP. INGO, you're slipping!

why get rid of the lifetime license?

Same reason Black Talon rounds are illegal to own/possess.

Actually, I believe your lifetime LTCH remains active and in full force. How it was explained to me is there are only 2 criteria that can invalidate an issued lifetime LTCH: becoming a prohibited person or death. Change of address to out of state is neither. I actually moved cross country some years back and for several years had both a MT resident CCW license and an IN lifetime LTCH with my Montana address printed on it. ISP didn't give me any fuss when I updated my address to 2 time zones away and requested a duplicate card.

Also, according to the ISP website, they do still issue 5 year LTCH to out of state residents who have a place of business in IN.

That made my brain hurt, but you are right.

I’ll see if Indiana will send me a new license with my Texas address on it.

Evil in the black box, dirty, nasty, crud in the white box.

Oh My! You may be correct. Mine is starting to fade.

Well, some of those words were more than 2 syllables

Never use a $20 word when a $1 word will do. Plus the whole "no longer a resident, but the lifetime LTCH is still in effect" thing is confusing.

It makes sense if you don't think about it....
