Florida License

[jakester]

I AM IN THE PROCESS OF FILLING OUT MY APPLACATION FOR FLORIDA. I' m confused on question no#9 and no#13. I had a dwi in 1986 . I know i'm all right on it time wise WHAT I'M NOT SURE ABOUT IS NO#9 . IS DWI CONSIDERED A CRIME OF VIOLENCE AND DO I HAVE TO SEND IN PAPER WORK ON IT.

i got my florida permit last summer. dwi not considered violent,etc.etc. think it cost $117 and is good for 7 years. another big benefit is they accept military service as proof of firearms training. i sent them my dd-214(from 1971). this means if you are a vet, no class required. also no semi/revolver issue. one page application,passport picture, fingerprint card(they furnish),dd-214, a check for $117 and your all set(assuming fbi check ok). if 2 attempts by fbi to read your prints fail, they do some kind of background check and issue the license. in general, florida seems to want you to have a license as opposed to our dps who sometimes appear to be hunting for a reason to deny or delay. could be that the florida agriculture department division of licensing issues the ccl as opposed to a law enforcement group here in texas.
