Hey Fairfax County Circuit Court - once you start serving the public instead of subjugating it, I might reconsider you as a respectable institution. 0/5, would not recommend.
"Sic semper tyrannis"
3) Head to room 115 (library), make a photocopy of 4pg application, proof of competency @ 25 cents a page ($1.25)
First time caller...I was trying to reach the traffic ticket office at 3:56 P.M and she said they already closed for the day. I ask if I can have their direct number for next time and she did gave it to me...I said Thank You and she just hung up as soon as she said the last telephone number! She's sound so rude! And have no manner for her old age! She just there to pick up the phone just to gets pay and have no choices to picks, but to answer the call and ruling someone else Day. You MEAN old lady! Because of you this place have a bad reputation!
1) Fill out the CHP form available online, print out *all* pages, make a photocopy of your 'proof of handgun competency'
No place to park... paying taxes public parking is not for the public it's private own... the court system is a business. PD is the biggest gang known to a civilized country. F... YALL
Not a good time. On walking into the court, you're going to have to go through a metal detector, and it's one of those ones that makes you take your shoes off too. Always nice to be presumed guilty until proven innocent.
Went for marriage license copy, no many people in line, but still takes forever. Slow service.
4) Purchase from the library an envelope with a stamp, address it to yourself (because Fairfax makes you pay for the envelope to mail your permit, apparently) - $1.75, or bring it yourself
For those applying for a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP), you'll have to go to room 116 to have your permit notarized/stamped/whatever. Waiting in line took over a half hour at 2PM on a Monday, ~10 days into the month (and you have to pay for parking - it's $2.00 for under an hour, if it takes them forever, you're the one paying more). For those interested, below is the Fairfax County Circuit Court procedures for getting a CHP:
If you have to deal with probate. Be ready for fees apon fees. They don't tell you about the fees. You just find out through the mail. New fee bill. And there is a fee for sending this bill. I'll probably get a fee for this review.
5) Head to room 319 to submit the notarized application for $50.00 (maximum allowed by VA) - note there is a 4% credit card surcharge ($2.00)
2) Go to the circuit court, head to room 116, get your application signed off on/notarized (Photo ID needed)
Voila, in about 45 days and $57 later, you'll be given the "privilege" of now being able to take your already-allowed openly carried handgun, and tuck it under your shirt. A blatant infringement (charging fees, impeding the exercise of) on the *right* to *bear* (hold or carry) arms, but there you have it.
