Does anyone know if this is still a valid way to get a CCW for some US states? I have a chance to take the course in a couple of days.

What do you mean by this 'I have a chance to take the course in a couple of days' ? The person teaching the course must be certified by the Utah BCI. If he/she is certified, then they know that Utah will not issue non-resident permits to anyone that is a non-resident of the USA. Is the same old scammer crossing Canada teaching the course again?
 
nope...this is in S.Carolina...being offered at a course. Nothing to do with scamming. I just saw it advertised for a local club. SO,..Canadians can not get this Permit regardless anymore? I wonder if my social security # would pass for some type of validation. (dual citizenship)
 
I reviewed the exemptions on the UTAH CCW facts page. It mentions exemptions including Law enforcement officer..but I notice it does not say from the USA? I sent them an email. I will post here what they reply.
 
Not sure an ssn would do it....don't you need to prove residncey to get a resident ccw? Ssn and dual citizenship don't seem to do this

All States that I'm aware of - if I'm wrong someone please correct me.

Some states have unrestricted CCW - but as such, no permit is needed nor issued, and therefore CCW is limited only to those states.

I think Utah's CCW was commonly obtained before due to the large number of reciprocal acceptance by other states. And it's unique non-resident eligibility for the permit
 
Although Utah had a reciprocal agreement with a lot of states, many of them were not valid if you didn't live in Utah.

There were a few other states that did not have the residency requirment, but that all could have changed. Some also require you to be a US citizen.

What about the "live free or die" state? You would think if anyone had it, NH would.
 
I was told I would not likely be able to get it unless I had a US drivers licence.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah lawmakers have advanced a measure eliminating the need for a permit to carry a concealed gun in Utah, as long as it's unloaded.

The Senate voted 19-6 Tuesday to preliminarily approve the bill introduced by Rep. John Mathis, R-Vernal.

It would allow anyone 21 or over to carry a hidden gun, as long as that person hasn't been convicted of a crime that bars a person from legally owning a firearm.

Gun owners would still need a permit to carry a loaded, hidden weapon. They would also still need a permit to carry a hidden weapon on a school campus or to carry in another state that honors Utah's concealed weapon permits.

The Senate must give its final approval before the measure goes to the governor.

Another gun bill that attracted a lot of attention this session is still awaiting debate in the Senate.

That proposal, from Rep. Brian Greene, R-Pleasant Grove, would declare Utah's authority to regulate firearms in the state trumps federal gun laws. The bill states that if a judge declares a state gun law conflicts with a federal law, the state law will be supreme and federal and state officers cannot enforce the federal law.

Legislative attorneys have said it's very likely a court will find the legislation unconstitutional if it passes. Greene said the measure is an assertion of state's rights and individual liberty, and he doesn't believe it's unconstitutional.

Another bill pending in the Senate bars police from citing someone for disorderly conduct for carrying a gun.

The proposal from Republican Rep. Paul Ray, of Clearfield, allows law enforcement to cite someone carrying a gun for disorderly conduct only if the person disregards police orders or behaves in a way that causes a "reasonable person" to fear for the safety of anyone. Ray said there have been cases in recent years where police cited gun owners for disorderly conduct without a just cause.

It's unclear when the bills will be heard, if at all, as lawmakers are churning through dozens of pieces of legislation and finalizing the state budget in their last few days before adjourning Thursday night.

For a NH non-resident permit, you send them a copy of the permit from your resident State or any other state. If you don't already have a US CCW permit, you can't get NH. See the link below.
