What happens if a CPL holder changes their address in Washington State?

  1. They must notify the issuing authority within 30 days

  2. No action is required

  3. They must apply for a new CPL

  4. They have to retake the firearms safety course

The correct answer is: They must notify the issuing authority within 30 days

CPL holders in Washington State are required to notify the issuing authority within 30 days of changing their address. This requirement is in place to ensure that the issuing authority has updated and accurate information regarding the CPL holder's current address. Failing to update this information within the specified timeframe can lead to potential complications or violations of the CPL regulations. Therefore, it is crucial for CPL holders to promptly notify the issuing authority of any change in their address. Option B, stating that no action is required, is incorrect as CPL holders are indeed required to notify the issuing authority of any address changes within 30 days. Option C, which suggests applying for a new CPL, is also incorrect because a simple notification of the address change is sufficient. Similarly, option D, mentioning the need to retake the firearms safety course, is also inaccurate as changing one's address does not require re-taking the safety course.
