When i renewed my PAL,there is a area in the application form that requires your wife or girlfriend to sign saying that she knows about the guns.The CFC says that they have to have the signature before they will process the application.Bunch of BS.My wife refused to sign it and the chief firearms officer had to get involved.He phoned me and asked why the wife would not sign it.I told him that they were my guns,not hers and that i had guns before i met her.He then asked to speak to her and after they chatted for a couple of minutes.she handed the phone back to me.He said that my application will go ahead and that i should receive my licence in about 6 weeks.Stand up to them assholes at the CFC and they back down right quick like.So you see,you do not need the other half's signiture.Remember they are your guns
