* Will notify permittee by USMail 120 days before permit expires
** Charges ADDITIONAL Fingerprint Fee
*** There is a 6-month grace period to renew your permit after it has expired; however, the county will charge a $15 late fee in addition to the renewal fee if renewed during the grace period.
One cannot "renew" AFTER the 6-month grace period and must submit a "new" application at the new application fee rate and rules.

You mean to say that some cop accosted you about your expired CHP and you didn't video record the incident and post it up on You Tube???[ROFL1]
Are all permits valid for the same length of time, or is that county specific as well?
Thanks for starting the list. [Beer]

This is a good question too. I would be interested in this answer

Colorado permits are valid 5 years from date of issue. If memory serves, you can apply for renewal up to 120 days before they expire, and if you do not apply for renewal within 60 days after it expires, you have to go through the whole process again.

Permits are all 5 years from date of issue, per state law (CRS 18-12-204(1)(b). Permit contents - validity - carrying requirements)
if you let the permit expire, you have 6 months to renew it (CRS 18-12-211(2). Renewal of permits).
They indicate that you can start the renewal process as early as 120 days prior to permit expiration (per CRS 18-12-211. Renewal of permits).
If you renew before the permit expires, "normal" renewal fees (not more than $50 per CSR 18-12-211(1). Renewal of permits) apply (but they DO vary a bit by county).
After the permit expires, but before 6 months after it expired, there is often a "late fee" charged by the county of $15 (per CRS 18-12-211(2). Renewal of permits).
If you wait until the permit is more than 6 months expired, you are back to square #1 and must go through the whole New Application process (Larger fee, fingerprints, notary etc.) again.

Teller county is missing. Best I can find is, NO. http://www.co.teller.co.us/sheriff/CHP_Info_Booklet.pdf
If renewing and existing CCW permit, does CCW training need to be within the last 10 years?
Yessir. If not, you have to re train.

Got this taken care of....
Found a few more links. If you go to the link I posted, there is a CCW "tab" at the top with a few more docs.

Seems to be COUNTY dependent.
EX: WELD County does not require this...
See CHP Renewal Info in this doc http://www.weldsheriff.com/assets/D1dD1D081159431Aa076.pdf

Interesting. The way I read CRS, I think they (Weld County) are doing it wrong. I guess OK for now, but I wouldn't be surprised if someone from the state tells them that have to change that at some point.
CRS 18-12-211 (1)
(1) Within one hundred twenty days prior to expiration of a permit, the permittee may obtain a renewal form from the issuing sheriff and renew the permit by submitting to the issuing sheriff a completed renewal form, a notarized affidavit stating that the permittee remains qualified pursuant to the criteria specified in section 18-12-203 (1) (a) to (1) (g), and the required renewal fee not to exceed fifty dollars, as set by the sheriff pursuant to section 18-12-205 (5). The renewal form shall meet the requirements specified in section 18-12-205 (1) for an application. The sheriff shall verify pursuant to section 18-12-205 (4) that the permittee meets the criteria specified in section 18-12-203 (1) (a) to (1) (g) and is not a danger as described in section 18-12-203 (2) and shall either renew or deny the renewal of the permit in accordance with the provisions of section 18-12-206 (1). If the sheriff denies renewal of a permit, the permittee may seek a second review of the renewal application by the sheriff and may submit additional information for the record. The permittee may also seek judicial review as provided in section 18-12-207.
And then:
CRS 18-12-203 (1) (g) (VI)
(VI) A training certificate from a handgun training class obtained within the ten years preceding submittal of the application. The applicant shall submit the original training certificate or a photocopy thereof that includes the original signature of the class instructor. In obtaining a training certificate from a handgun training class, the applicant shall have discretion in selecting which handgun training class to complete.

Jayock, I agree with you. State law says you need one.
However, I was just reporting what I found on the Weld County site that says "Weld County does not require one".

It looks like Denver has switched form appt to walk-ins four days a week?
From the web-site:
Permit applications are processed on a walk-in, first come, first served basis Tuesday - Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., excluding Holidays.
UPDATE:
I went on Friday for a renewal. You get scanned by the metal detector, and then they have you sit in the lobby with all the people coming in from the street. Whatever.
Took about 30-40 minutes to be seen. The metal detector guy gives you a numbered laminated card. It starts at number 7, I don't know why. I waited about 30-40 minutes till someone came out and asked who was there for CCW. There were about 5 people, but I was the only one to get up. I think the others were there for the sexual predator registration. Either someone has a sense of humor, they think CCWers are like child molesters, or they think that evertually the problem will just work itself out ;)
So no appt. necessary. She took my stuff and even printed off a new card for me since the expiring one was starting to fall apart. She said if you are going to carry it in your wallet all the time (who doesn't???) you should laminate it to protect it.
The major change was that she said I would get a letter saying that I my renewal was ready and that I have to come down to pick it up. I though they just mailed out the CCW when I was got my last one.
Kind of a pain. Nice lady cop. Saw an NRA sticker on one of the lockers. I hope they work under 90 days since my current one would expire a few days before that.

So we went in to renew our permits from Boulder County and they discovered they can't do it because of the new gun laws that passed. We use to live in Boulder County and that is where we originally got the permits from, but we moved to Erie, and are now in Weld County. According to what they were told by CBI as they were running our background checks, you can now only get permits from the county you actually live in, regardless of where the permit was issued. CBI claims that we can go to Weld County and only have to pay the renewal fee, not the fee for a whole new CHP. The lady at Boulder County said she has 4 other people she had to inform about this change and she had no idea why the new law was thought to provide any sort of safety or any benefit to any associated parties (citizen or government).
The only problem is all the information on everyone's website still says you can only renew in the county that originally issued the permit. Any one have any sources to back up the CBI's statement??

The link has changed for Adams County since the original post.
The new page is very comprehensive and complete. There's an
online appointment scheduler for both new permit applications
and renewals. Walk-ins are not served.
