Frequently asked questions

- Yes. The form instructs applicants to attach a full, detailed inventory identifying the goods, listing qualifying recent purchases separately, and showing cost, seller, purchase and delivery dates, and total cost value.
- Who signs in front of the notary?
- The applicant signs the sworn statement. The form’s notary block says “Subscribed and Sworn to before me” and includes spaces for the date and notary public.
- How long does the initial permit last?
- The form notes that the initial permit is for 60 days and that a 30-day extension can be granted upon written request. Confirm with the city or village if unsure.
