Are fingerprint checks required when applying for a Concealed Pistol License in Washington?

  1. Yes, for all applicants

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only for new applicants

  4. Yes, but only for renewal applications

The correct answer is: Yes, for all applicants

This step is part of the background check process to ensure the applicant meets the necessary eligibility criteria and does not have a criminal record that would disqualify them from obtaining a CPL. Option B is incorrect because fingerprint checks are indeed required. Option C is incorrect as it states that fingerprint checks are only for new applicants, which is not the case. Option D is also incorrect as fingerprint checks are required for all applicants, not just for renewal applications.
