Can a non-resident apply for a Virginia CHP?

  1. Yes, without any restrictions

  2. Yes, if they work in Virginia

  3. No, only Virginia residents can apply

  4. Yes, but only military personnel stationed in Virginia

The correct answer is: Yes, without any restrictions

A non-resident can apply for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) without any restrictions. Virginia law allows non-residents to obtain a Virginia CHP as long as they meet the necessary requirements outlined by the state, such as completing the required training and submitting the application with the appropriate documentation. Therefore, option A is correct. Option B is incorrect because working in Virginia is not the only criteria for a non-resident to apply for a Virginia CHP. Option C is incorrect because as mentioned above, non-residents are eligible to apply for a Virginia CHP. Option D is incorrect because the ability to apply for a Virginia CHP is not limited to military personnel stationed in Virginia.
