Thanks all.

In regards to the fingerprinting... many states that allow non-resident permits simply have you get the fingerprint forms from the state you are requesting the non-resident permit from, take said fingerprint forms to your local police, they fingerprint you and sign off on it all legal like, then you send said fingerprint forms back to the state you are requesting the non-resident permit from. Happens all the time. Of course, doesn't work if they ONLY accept electronic fingerprints.

Hej Verd! This is what I go back from the Okanogan county Sheriff's office:

"The Okanogan County Sheriff’s Office will accept an application by mail. However, in order for the license to be issued we must verify your identity, you must sign the license and if the license is an original you must be fingerprinted. "

I have asked for and acceptable form of verifying identy and obtaining fingerprints.. Will post the answer if/when I receive one.

Installment #2 from the Okanogan Sheriff's office:

"The whole process is agency specific. He could have his fingerprints submitted electronically from another state, but the return would not come to us.

We would have to physically lay eyes on him to verify his identity and he would need to sign the license in our presence.

Have you contacted the Department of Licensing?"

For your holidays this summer, come to beautiful Washington state and go hiking, and apply while you are here, any sheriff's office, usually takes about 15 minutes. Maybe? if you make your application by mail, and make arrangements with the Sheriff's office, you could come in have your fingerprints done on their electronic scanner, and walk out with your CPL the same day rather than have it mailed.

BTW: while you are recreating in our great state, you can OC or CC without a license, so come, have a good time hiking, skiing, hunting, fishing, horseback riding, camping....etc....whatever turns your family crank. Way better than FL.

Oh yes, you can OC on the way here to: in ID, MT, WY (most of) CO (just not Denver)....

hernannr that is pretty good of you going the extra mile on this.
Issues are still in play, once the sheriff office accepts the fingerprints how low would it take for them to process (likely up to 60 days) and then to get an appointment after everything is ran and approved to sign and verify their identity, seems to be quite cumbersome versus just obtaining a resident cpl in his/her home state.
