I recently applied for a permit to purchase a handgun in Manalapan, NJ. After handing Lt. Barstow application STS 33A and the form for the state police to perform a mental health background check,SP-66, The Lt. said there was additional paperwork required. He wants me to sign and have notarized an additional form which he says the state police need to perform an effective background check. This form allows the police to check with my Health Care provider,Banks, Credit reporting agencies,Educational Institutions, Insurance companies, all government agencies and more.
The only forms required by law are STS-33 and SP-66.
N.J.S.2C:58-3(f) reads : "There shall be no conditions or requirements added to the form or content of the application, or required by the licensing authority for the issuance of a permit or identification card, other than those that are specifically set forth in this chapter."
I recited this law to the Lt. and he told me this form is" needed by the state police to perform an effective background check."
I have contacted the State Police and Attorney generals office and have yet to receive a reply.
Do you have any ideas on how I should proceed with this problem ?(serious replies only please)
Thanks
