Ten Percent Firearms California Proof of Residency Key

Federal 4473 Requirements

If the picture ID address does not match the 4473 address, then you must obtain

another valid, government-issued document showing the transferee’s residence address. This alternate documentation should be recorded in question 20.b., with issuing authority and type of identification presented.

Do not take a copy of the document. Simply write down the document issuing authority and type in 20.b.

It must be a government issued document. Utility bills, DMV brown change of address cards, and hunting licenses do not apply. The document should be printed or typed and not handwritten.

This is required for any firearm transaction either long gun or handgun.

Common examples are: CA vehicle registration, CA DMV printout, CCW, W-2s, government utilities, big game tags issued by the drawing, and lifetime hunting licenses printed by the state.

CA DROS Requirements

All handgun DROSes must be accompanied by a copy of a SECONDARY proof of residency.

Utility Bill from within the past three months that bears on its face the individual’s name and 4473 address. Utility Bill means a statement of charges for providing service to the individual’s residence by either physical or a telemetric connection to a non-mobile, fixed antenna reception device (satellite cable).

Residential Lease that bears the individual’s name and 4473 address and is signed and dated.

Property Deed that bears the indvidual’s name and 4473 address.

Current, Government-issued License, Permit, or Registration, other than a CA DL or CA ID (DMV Printout will not work), that has a specified expiration date or period of validity. The document must bear the individual’s name and 4473 address.

We must retain a copy of this document.

It must be valid and have an expiration date. DOUBLE CHECK THE DATES. No “Over Due Notice” warnings.

Make sure you can see the address for the utility provided on the bill.

If it is a government issued document, it can apply for both Federal 4473 and CA DROS requirements. (example: CCW, CA Vehicle Registration) If not, then you might need to satisfy both. (Example: a DMV printout would still require a utility bill.)

4473 Legal Alien and Nonimmigrant Alien Requirements

Legal Aliens and Nonimmigrant Aliens must have three consecutive months of utility bills for all transactions.

Must provide additional documentation to establish that he or she has resided in a State continuously for at least 90 days immediately prior to the date of the sale.

Examples of appropriate documents to establish State residency are utility bills from each of the last 3 months immediately prior to the sale or a lease agreement that demonstrates 90 days of residency immediately prior to the sale.

A licensee may attach a copy of the documentation to ATF Form 4473, rather than record the type of documentation in questions 20.c.

Acceptable documentation to prove 90-day contiuo0us residency must be original documentation (e.g. utility bills, current bank statements, rent receipts, mortgage payments, lease agreements, personal property tax bills, documents issued by Federal, State, or local government agencies, first-class mail issued by government agency, insurance policies, or bill with current address or major credit card bill).

Nonimmigrant Aliens must also provide a current hunting license or permit.

We do not want to retain copies. Simply look at the bills and write down the type of document and three dates in 20.c or for nonimmigrant aliens 20.d.

DO NOT USE THESE EXAMPLES FOR ANY OTHER REQUIREMENTS SECTIONS ABOVE.

These documents can apply for CA DROS or FEDERAL 4473 requirements. However, be sure to retain a copy of CA DROS Handgun requirements, but not for FEDERAL 4473 requirements.
