This means that both U.S. citizens and legal resident aliens are permitted to apply for the Virginia CHP. Option A is incorrect as the permit is not limited to Virginia residents only. Option B is incorrect as legal resident aliens are also eligible, not just U.S. citizens. Option D is incorrect as the age requirement for applying for a Virginia CHP is 21, not 30.
