so i just got word that my permit approval has been sitting at the chief desk for 2 weeks hopefully i'll get it by next week.
This is a standard line by most PDs used as a stalling tactic. Have you filed an appeal? Assuming it went to the Chief's desk when they received the national criminal history report back, you are over a week past the deadlines in CGS 29-29.
no, I haven't yet i was thinking about that, I don't know if that would help me out though,the lady i spoke with told me to give em until next week.I did tell her that they have 5 days to approve or denied my permit after they receive it back from Middletown.she also that they have to get the fbi bg check but I know thats b.s I will be calling them everyday after today.
They have '1 week' to approve or deny when they receive the national criminal history check. Not 5 days.
Stop calling the local PD. Call SPBI and get your dates. Appeal if your deadlines have been exceeded.
860-685-8480 - SPBI
Ask for 'records'. Have your money order information ready.
I did call spbi and they said they were sent out the 9th back to New Britain Pd,so i called N.B records and they said it was sitting at the chief desk.

fill out your appeal letter AND questionaire and mail it today.
has it been more than 8 weeks since you submitted the app and fingerprints? if yes, you have TWO reasons to appeal.
them saying to give them until next week is rediculous, they've already exceeded the state statutes, and you have grounds to appeal right now.
better to send it now then several days from now. if BFPE sends documents to NB before they issue your permit, it'll simply kick em in the butt to get it finalised that much quicker. and it'll pressure them into knowing they are being watched in regards to abiding by the statutes.
just remember that if you file the appeal, you MUST notify the BFPE immediately if you receive your permit
Very well said.
So then you are done. The only action to take is to appeal. They violated CGS 29-29.

my permit was denied due to a protective order that i didn't know about in 2005 and 3 arrest i didn't put down in the application.
You could reapply and disclose the information.
Were the arrests convictions? Is the protective order still in effect?

The OP cannot have not known he had some arrests .... and the PO is likely related to one of the arrests
I doubt a 2005 PO is in effect any more....
not that it's relevant, but that may or may not be an accurate guess. for example, I personally was denied on my first application because I checked "no" for have I ever been arrested, when in fact I had been arrested twice in my life. and I honestly did NOT know I was arrested either of those 2 times
I gathered the correct info and included it on a new app and then reapplied; I now have my permit.
x2. and just to clarify for the OP; an active PO/RO makes you ineligible for a PP. but if it has been cancelled or expired, which it probably has, then you are eligible; so long as they still deem you suitable. and of course so long as you have never been convicted of any of the charges listed in the statutes which also would make you ineligible
He did not get denied because of the information , he was denied because he did not disclose.
The OP cannot have not known he had some arrests .... and the PO is likely related to one of the arrests
We do not know that..... Never assume that every applicant understands the intricate differences between arrests, nolles, dismissals, convictions and how the erasure system works.
This is the kind of problem where the applicant needs to give more information and work with us to figure out the correct course of action.
Not true at all. We see these things all the time which is why we have made tools like our Conviction History search available: http://ctcarry.com/ConvictionHistory/StateSearch
Has CT carry headed any efforts to change the DPS form in what they can ask? It something to consider.
We are still a long way off from being able to accomplish this. It is on 'the list', however.
