Man internet lawyers all over, I guess thats what I get for asking on the interweb instead of picking up the phone myself!
Inigoes: chapter 95 governs appointments to a Pa state civil servant job. 95.2 establishes residency requirements for those jobs, not for anything else. At least read the stuff before you post it!
It's OK, I work for the government and I'm here to help. Uncle Sam moves me often for work, and just like military my location is not my legal residence by federal law. Do you guys want a DNA sample too? Damn!
So... Do they give you the permanent license on the spot or is it mailed later? That's really all I want to know!
To answer this question, yes, once you satisfy the requirements for a PA DL you will be issued the real deal on the spot, but what you are calling a "permanent license" is not permanent, it expires in five years.
