Notification of New Address for LTCH (would appreciate LEO input)

[abnk]

An Indiana resident must notify the ISP superintendent of an address change, in writing, within 60 days.

The notification form has an option to just notify (no new license to be sent) and another to notify and request new license for $20.

I did not see anything in the IC specifying that a new license is needed showing the new address.

Should trouble be expected from LEOs if the LTCH address does not match the DL address?

Not LE, but I think anytime the documents don't match it raises a red flag. Even if it's just a tiny little sandwich sized flag.

Unless you move around alot, I'd just chuck-up the $20 and get a new one.

 

[mrjarrell]

When I moved, I opted for the fee and address change, just to be on the safe side.

My first permit, I notified of the address change and did not get a new permit. I never had an issue when when asked for my permit by a LEO.

I think this depends on why you are interacting with the LEO. If he is upset and thinks "you people" shouldn't be in "his town," then yes, he (or she) will give you a hassle about it trying to get you to do or say something so they can put the bracelets on you.
If it's a low stress traffic stop, then I think it is unlikely to be an issue.

Notification is the only requirement. I did have mine reissued but I do not move around and am paperwork anal

I moved before my old permit (had almost 3 years left at the time) expired and told ISP the new address. They said it was updated and I didn't need a new one. (Got my lifetime now!)

I sent notification, but didn't know about the $20 re-issue fee- I'll have to look into that since I have the lifetime.

I just moved out of state (not yet 60 days) but I'll just have them make it inactive....it is a lifetime license

If you carry outside Indiana, you may want to pony up the $20 to make sure your DL and LTCH match. IIRC, some states that honor the IN LTCH require a match...IANAL.

Also, LEO in other states will likely not be familiar with the notification requirements (and lack of update requirement for the LTCH) and may, therefore, be likely to spend a bit more quality time with you if a mismatch is there.

Best advice? Assess your personal situation, do the research, and make the call.
