  1. Virginia residents only

  2. U.S. citizens only

  3. Any U.S. citizen or legal resident alien

  4. Only Virginia residents over the age of 30

The correct answer is: Any U.S. citizen or legal resident alien

This means that both U.S. citizens and legal resident aliens are permitted to apply for the Virginia CHP. Option A is incorrect as the permit is not limited to Virginia residents only. Option B is incorrect as legal resident aliens are also eligible, not just U.S. citizens. Option D is incorrect as the age requirement for applying for a Virginia CHP is 21, not 30.
