Are applicants for a Florida CWFL required to pass a background check?

  1. No

  2. Yes, but only a state-level check

  3. Yes, including both state and federal checks

  4. Yes, but only if they are under 30 years old

The correct answer is: Yes, including both state and federal checks

Applicants for a Florida CWFL (Concealed Weapon or Firearm License) are required to pass both state and federal background checks. This includes a check of their criminal history and any potential restraining orders or domestic violence charges. Option A is incorrect because Florida state law requires a background check for CWFL applicants. Option B is also incorrect because the state-level check is not sufficient; applicants must also pass a federal background check. Option D is incorrect because there is no age restriction for the background check requirement.
