Submitted application on 18 Dec. In the mean time I tried to get an answer to the following e-mail I sent To Virginia:
"I obtained my Virginia Concealed carry resident permit while assigned to Portsmouth as an Active Duty Coast Guard Member and at the time held a Texas Drivers License.
I recently moved back to Texas and I am in the process of applying for a Texas Concealed Permit which is a 90 day process.
The Texas Department of Public Safety has indicated that if Virginia still considers my concealed handgun permit valid then I am allowed to carry in Texas under the reciprocity agreement between Texas and Virginia.
My Question for you is:
Based on the fact that I obtained my permit from Virginia while a resident of Texas but serving as an active duty member of the armed forces and, other then moving out of the state I have no other factors which would disqualify me from carrying a handgun, do you still consider my concealed permit to be valid?
Thank You
Richard Graham
Permit# CM06000503"
No answer ever received from Virginia. What do you all Think?

Many problems of modern society cannot be solved by laws and
the legal system because moral behavior cannot be legislated.

Does your Virginia license have your current Texas address on it?
If so, I would think it is a valid non-resident Virginia license and you can use it as such.
Does the address on your Virginia license match your Texas driver license?
I don't know what the Viginia law is, but typically a license does not automatically beome invalid unless you are charged with a crime.
