THE NEXT CHAPTER - after submitting an application for a Weapons Licence online, waiting 6-8 weeks and then getting a email from WLB to report to a nominated Police Station for ID verification, what happens next, nothing!
After providing proof of ID, make sure that the "Police Station Use Only" section of the form is completed and returned to you for your records.
May I suggest that you send of a email in the next day or 2 to WLB, confirming that you have attended the police station as directed and attach a scanned copy of the completed form, 'for you information".
I waited 3 weeks after attending etc, sent of an email re issue of licence and received a reply requesting I send through a copy of the completed Police Use only section as the police station has not stamped and signed the copy so that WLB can follow up the ID check ASAP.
Now, bearing in mind that should the information have not been RECEIVED by the due date, WLB considers that you have withdrawn your application. Note the wording of the email is "RECEIVED" and not "ATTENDED". So I assume that should your paperwork go astray or is not completed and forwarded to WLB by the due date the application is deemed to have been withdrawn.
Anyone else run into similar problems?
Boom, Boom! Tikka, Tikka, Boom! Shoot first, video later.
