creed_az_88 Report post Posted December 19, 2012 Does a non resident applying with a resident hurt the residents chance of getting drawn? When a resident and a non resident apply together on the same application, does the application get recognized as a resident's application or a non residents's application?

When a resident and a non resident apply together on the same application, does the application get recognized as a resident's application or a non residents's application? Thanka guys yes if a non-resident puts in with a resident the resident will be limited to the 10% cap unless the non-resident used to be a resident and bought a lifetime lic. before moving, if thats the case then you can put in with a non-resident and the application will be treated as a resident app. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Outdoor Writer Report post Posted December 19, 2012 Depends on the situation. The actual application isn't treated any different as either a resident or nonresident. It's only after it is assigned a draw number based on the number of average bonus points and considered if drawn where it will matter. For Coues deer or units for other species with few permits, it would likely only be a hindrance for a hunt with few permits -- i.e. Dec. hunts for Coues. In that case, if the 10% cap has already been reached, neither your partner or you will get a permit. BUT...having a NR apply with you in one case could be a plus if the NR has mucho more bonus points than you have. For example, you have no bonus points and he or she has 14. That means the application will get 8 chances (average of 14+2 for app=16 ) to get a low number in the draw. If he or she applied solo, however, he or she would get 15 chances. Of course, if it's just the opposite, the NRs 0 BPs will drastically decrease your chances to 8 rather than 15. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tines Report post Posted December 24, 2012 Another variable would be if a non-resident happened to live in AZ at one point and purchased a lifetime license. Although he pays NR fees and checks the NR box, he's placed into the same pool as residents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
