Who is eligible to apply for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

Virginia residents only
U.S. citizens residing in Virginia
Legal residents of the U.S. residing in Virginia
Anyone over the age of 21

The correct answer is: Legal residents of the U.S. residing in Virginia

Legal residents of the U.S. residing in Virginia are eligible to apply for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit. This means that U.S. citizens, as well as non-citizens who are legal residents of the U.S., can apply for a CHP in Virginia as long as they reside in the state. It is important to note that Virginia residents are not the only ones eligible, as stated in option A. Option B is too narrow as it excludes legal residents who are not U.S. citizens. Lastly, option D is incorrect because being over the age of 21 is a requirement for applying for a CHP, but it is not the only criterion for eligibility.
