Can non-residents apply for a concealed carry permit in West Virginia?

  1. Yes, if they work in West Virginia

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only if they have a permit from their home state

  4. Yes, without any restrictions

The correct answer is: Yes, if they work in West Virginia

Residents of West Virginia are eligible to apply for a concealed carry permit regardless of their employment status. Non-residents who work in West Virginia may also apply for a concealed carry permit, as long as they can provide proof of employment in the state. Option B is incorrect because it states that non-residents cannot apply at all, which is not true for those who work in West Virginia. Option C is incorrect because it specifies that non-residents can only apply if they have a permit from their home state, which is not a requirement for non-residents who work in West Virginia. Option D is incorrect because it suggests that non-residents can apply without any restrictions, which is not accurate as they must have proof of employment in West Virginia.
