Remind students of extension as noted on the www.dps.state.nm.us
“In response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, as a precautionary measure the New Mexico Department of Public Safety, Law Enforcement Records Bureau, has authorized extending the grace period to renew a Concealed Carry Permit license after expiration date, from 60 days to 120 days. This extension ONLY applies to licenses that expired on or after March 16, 2020, and only applies to the renewal of an application. However, be reminded that: pursuant to NMAC 10.8.2.17(A)(1) … “If the license has expired, a licensee shall not carry a concealed handgun until he or she receives a renewed license.”

This extension for renewing expired licenses does not apply to licenses that expired before March 16, 2020; and those that would be suspended or revoked pursuant to the New Mexico Concealed Carry Handgun Act. Licenses that expired on or before March 15, 2020, are still covered by the 60-day period before and after the expiration date to renew the license, as provided by the Concealed Carry Handgun Act. However, if required, management will review on a case-by-case basis.”
