re: Concealed carry for veterans

Taken directly from the application online:

Here's all the info you need about fees and advantages of being an HONORABLY discharged Veteran (Thank you for your service, by the way. ).

Looks like Honorably Discharged Veterans are free for 5 year or Lifetime.

quote:

---

ALL FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE
a) 45 Day Temporary permit - $25.00 (Balance must be paid upon approval of 5 year or Lifetime permit)

b) 5 year permits - $125.00 (65 years and older or active duty military personnel - $62.50)

c) Lifetime permits - $500.00 (65 years and older or active duty military personnel - $250.00)
*NOTE: Lifetime permit cannot be used in lieu of a NICS check when purchasing a firearm.)

d) *NOTE* Effective August 1, 2016 Act 44 of the 2016 Louisiana Legislative Session exempts HONORABLY
DISCHARGED veterans of the U.S. armed forces from all fees associated with 5-year or lifetime concealed handgun
permits. This Act doesn’t affect currently active military personnel. Active duty personnel remain eligible to receive the
half price discount with a copy of your most recent orders. (NOTE: A lifetime permit cannot be used in lieu of a NICS
check when purchasing a firearm.)

e) *Note* If an applicant has not continuously resided in Louisiana for the past 15 years an additional $50.00 fee is
required.

f) A fee schedule is listed in the “Louisiana Concealed Handgun Permit Laws, Administrative Rules and Selected Statute.”
Initial application fees are found in LAC 55:I:1307.B.15. Renewal application fees are found in LAC 55:I:1307.D.2.

g) Fees are payable to the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections in the form of a cashier’s check,
certified check or money order. Personal checks and cash are not accepted.

h) *Note* Online applicants will receive a confirmation email upon submission of their application and another email
upon acceptance of their application. The acceptance email will contain a link to submit a credit card payment. If
payment is not made within thirty (30) days, the application will be purged from the system and will require a new
submission to proceed.

Military Service - If you have served in the Armed Forces of the United States, you must include a copy of your DD-214 (type of discharge must be listed). If you are currently in the military and are using the military discount, you must include a copy of your most recent orders or a copy of your military ID, if allowed. (for LAARNG, as noted in 1.8.1.1. “the cardholder may allow photocopying of their ID card to facilitate DoD benefits”)
