What information must you provide when applying for a CPL in Washington?

  1. Name and address only

  2. Name, address, and proof of firearms training

  3. Name, address, fingerprints, and photo ID

  4. Social Security Number only

The correct answer is: Name, address, fingerprints, and photo ID

When applying for a Concealed Pistol License (CPL) in Washington, you must provide your name, address, fingerprints, and photo ID. This information is necessary for the background check process to ensure that the applicant is eligible to possess a CPL. Providing only a name and address (option A) or solely a Social Security Number (option D) would not provide sufficient information for the comprehensive background check required for obtaining a CPL. Proof of firearms training (option B) is not mentioned as a mandatory requirement for a CPL application in Washington state law; however, some counties may require it as an additional step.
