It's not required. But it can certainly matter, because it can affect the officer's attitude.txinvestigator wrote:If you are not carrying it does not matter.

Jim gave the right answer. Plus, this is very different from a traffic stop -- they're not going to be running your DL, so the fact that you have a CHL won't even come up.
If you're approached in a traffic stop while unarmed, it's polite to offer your CHL, even though it's not required, because the officer is going to come back wanting to know whether you're armed. That just doesn't apply in this case.
