    As in changing your address on your driver's license twice?

    Line 7a of the application is very clear…
    Primary Residence Address
    Section V, which you have to sign-off, says, in part:
    I understand that intentionally making a false statement on this application is a felony punishable by imprisonment for not more than four years or a fine of not more than $2,500, or both.
    Short of actually moving-in with your relative during the time period of applying for and receiving your CPL, you'd be committing a felony offense by applying for a CPL in Oakland Co. using your relative's address, even if you got your DL changed and changed back. Changing your DL, then changing it back in a short period of time would likely raise some red flags at the SOS.

    CPL isn’t connected to drivers license just your address on file

    Question 6a on the CPL application (not optional):

    Driver's License Number or Personal Identification Number
    Your DL number is printed on the CPL itself.

    No, wait the 4-5 months.

    I know I'm late for the party but this is the law regarding the wait for your CPL (From the MSP website). The statement “This receipt was issued for the purpose of applying for a CPL. As provided in section 5b of 1927 PA 372, MCL 28.425(b), if a license or notice of statutory disqualification is not issued within 45 days after the date this receipt was issued, this receipt shall serve as a CPL for the individual named in the receipt when carried with an official state issued driver’s license or personal identification card. The receipt is valid as a license until a license or notice of statutory disqualification is issued by the county clerk. This receipt does not exempt the individual named in the receipt from complying with all applicable laws for the purchases of firearms.”

    The issue in Wayne County is that the County Clerk won't ALLOW YOU TO APPLY for weeks, therefore, the 45 days doesn't kick-in until after you are actually allowed to apply.

    If you were to schedule an appointment to apply today, the wait would be 14 weeks minimum.
