What must a person do if they move to a different address after obtaining a CPL in Washington?

  1. Nothing, as the CPL is still valid

  2. Notify the issuing authority within 30 days

  3. Apply for a new CPL

  4. The CPL is automatically updated with the new address

The correct answer is: Notify the issuing authority within 30 days

If a person moves to a different address after obtaining a CPL in Washington, they must notify the issuing authority within 30 days. This is because a CPL contains personal information, such as the individual's address, and it is important for this information to be updated in order for the license to be valid and recognized by law enforcement. Option A is incorrect because the CPL is only valid at the individual's current address, and any changes must be reported. Option C is incorrect because applying for a new CPL will involve a background check and could result in the denial of the license if the individual's personal information does not match. Option D is incorrect because the CPL does not automatically update with a new address and must be manually updated by the individual.
