Moving

[Wrangler]

Getting ready to move next week and curious how do I change my address. And is it still valid while I am waiting for the new one? Thanks, Wrangler

You can log onto the USPS website, actually, to change it... but I think they charge a "processing fee", if you go that route. Like $10-15 if memory serves. Was pretty ridiculous when you can do the following option...

Otherwise, if convenience isn't a factor -- and FREE sounds better to you, you can simply walk into any post office and pick up the change of address form. Fill it out. Turn it back in. Then they'll start directing your incoming mail to the new address.

Pretty easy.

If you meant changing the address on your HCP and/or DL (which is what I thought you meant) you can do it online here https://www.tennesseeanytime.org/chgdl/ As found in this TGO thread http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/firearms-law-faq/21586-tennessee-handgun-carry-permit-change-address-duplicate-copy.html

If you change your address online you will not get a new HCP or DL. At the end of the process you are given a chance (one and only chance) to print out that you have changed your address. That print out along with the DL and HCP you have will work.

Depending on how close you are to renewing each, I wouldn't worry about getting a DL or HCP with your new address on it. I'd just wait till you renew and you'll get one with your new address at that time.

But if you want to order a new DL you can. https://www.tennesseeanytime.org/dupdlr/index.html To be honest not sure if you can get a duplicate HCP online or not.

Or you can go to any DL station and tell them you want to change your address.

Yeah, bring logic and reason into this Fallguy.

I just took the question at face value and assumed he meant mail. Was in too much of a hurry to notice this wasn't in the General / OT section. Do what Fallguy said... although trying that at the Post Office may yield entertainment. lol

Thanks for the info, I already marched down to the post office, open carrying, and walked up to the counter, slammed down my permit and said I needed a new one. Next think I know I was on the ground with a 300 lb security guard named Bertha on top of me.

Nah, just kidding. Thanks for the info Fall guy. Wrangler

It's free to change your address online at USPS. At least it was a year ago when I moved.

It's free to get the change of address kit from your local post office as well. Have done it twice in the last year. It also includes some good coupons...so it actually pays you....

They send you the coupons if you do it online also. Got a nice discount for Lowes that I haven't been able to use...
