MIP is a class C and therefore won't disqualify you.

Not sure about the other thing though, sorry I can't help with that.

Welcome to the forum. :tiphat:

Welcome to the forum.

The law lists specific psychoses (serious mental illness) and dementia as disqualifications for a CHL. Taking antidepressants like Zoloft is not a problem.

No one seems to know how DPS actually checks medical records, or if they do at all. They don't ask for your physician's name, so I can't see how they would know whom to ask.

Good luck.

Mostly they check to see if you have ever been institutionalized. Outside of that they really don't care.
