I can say with a high degree of certainty that each county behaves differently with regard to how they interpret the process of granting a NYS PP
In Cattaraugus County (in WNY) you set up a time to go to the pistol permit clerk (last I knew it to be Marga Arena whom is a sweet VERY knowledgeable on the process), get your finger prints, picture, pay your fees, and then she submits the app.. At the time time (about 10 years ago), I had no interviews to get a CC 'addition'. I just waited 9 months for the permit. Picked it up at the Little Valley Court office. Voila.
My wife received her permit in Clinton county NY. She waited seven months and only met with the NYState Police interviewer once. Hers in restricted to hunting, fishing and target shooting.
About 4 years ago my daughter and her hubby received theirs in Franklin county and were unrestricted for CC.
Now Franklin County restricts as Clinton County does.
My permit (1968) was unrestricted and when we went credit card type permit a restriction was NOT added to mine because of its age.
