Fill out the application at the courthouse. Take a $24.00 Money order to the jail for GBI. Electronic fingerprinting at the jail $5.00 Cash, Check or Money Order. Pick up permit at courthouse for $15.00 Money Order when you call them around the 60 day mark.

Court clerk and Deputies were very nice. I don't know why the hold up but it appears to be common.

Go to the Probate court office and apply there. They entered the application info in the computer and printed it up. They will take your $24.00 money order and then send you next door to the jail to get finger printed. They lady at the front desk of the jail mentioned that we needed $5.00, but they did not ask for or charge the fee. Finger prints are electronic scan.

The GBI fee is $24.00 money order only. I suggest getting a postal money order. Finger print fee is $5.00 and have exactly $5.00 because the front desk lady mentioned they cannot make change. (they didn't charge the fee this time)

The probate court office lady said to bring $15.00 cash or money order when picking up the license once they call to say it is ready.

The website mentions bring a SASE when applying, but the probate court lady said it was not needed since they call you and have you pick up the license.
