How long does a person typically have to wait to receive a Concealed Handgun Permit after submitting an application in Virginia?

45 days
30 days
60 days
90 days

The correct answer is: 45 days

In Virginia, a person typically has to wait 45 days to receive a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) after submitting an application. This waiting period allows for the Virginia State Police to conduct the necessary background checks and review the application before issuing the permit. This timeframe is specified by law in Virginia Code § 18.2-308. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the standard processing time established by law.
