Drafteligibility

A Personal Firearms Eligibility Check is an individual-requested DOJ records review authorized by Penal Code section 30105. The statute describes examination of authorized records and a notification framed as of the date the check was completed. [1] It also states that a later covered firearm transaction still requires the applicable background check and waiting period. [1] The review therefore documents a dated eligibility determination; it is not a continuing license or a substitute for subsequent required screening. [1]
