Under Connecticut law, how long do you have to notify the Department of Public Safety if you change your address?

  1. 24 hours

  2. 48 hours

  3. 2 weeks

  4. 1 month

The correct answer is: 48 hours

In Connecticut, if you have a pistol permit, you are required by law to notify the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection within 48 hours of changing your address. This helps maintain accurate records and ensures that any important communications regarding your permit reach you in a timely manner. It is crucial to comply with this requirement to avoid any potential legal issues. Option A is incorrect because the correct timeframe for notifying the department of a change in address in Connecticut is 48 hours, not 24 hours. Option C and Option D are also incorrect as the timeframes of 2 weeks and 1 month are not in accordance with Connecticut law.
