Sent in for mine this week, I figure if Mitch isn't around after the dust settles in November (God forbid) I better have it secure in my wallet before the next Govenor or a certian majority party makes it go away. If your permit is due to expire this year you might consider upgrading to lifetime ASAP. It's $40.00 to your local law enforcement and $60.00 to the State of Indiana. You must be within 6 months of your current license's expiration date to renew and upgrade. I strongly suggest you get one while you can. I can't tell you how much the lifetime permit makes sense to me, it's a no brainer...that's why somebody in the Statehouse is likley to try to get rid of it! Jim
