Under which circumstance can a Washington CPL be revoked?

Failure to renew on time
Moving to another state
Conviction of a disqualifying offense
Change of home address

The correct answer is: Conviction of a disqualifying offense

The correct response is centered on the conviction of a disqualifying offense. In Washington, certain criminal convictions can disqualify an individual from holding a Concealed Pistol License (CPL). This includes a range of offenses, such as felonies, certain domestic violence charges, and others as specified by law. If an individual is convicted of such an offense, their CPL may be revoked to ensure public safety and adherence to regulations aimed at responsible firearm ownership. In contrast, the failure to renew a CPL on time typically results in the license simply becoming inactive, rather than a formal revocation. Moving to another state might require the individual to obtain a new license based on the laws of the new state, but does not automatically lead to revocation of their Washington CPL. Similarly, a change of home address should be reported to update records but does not serve as grounds for revocation.
