The Wand Permit Office was a subdivision of the MACUSA Department of Magical Law Enforcement in the Magical Congress of the United States of America.[1] The office was charged with the duty of issuing, verifying and maintaining registry over wand permits for witches and wizards in the United States of America.
Description[]
Wand Permit Office in 1926
It was not particularly highly regarded, as it was noted to be only slightly larger than a cupboard and apparently understaffed, judging by the piles of unopened wand applications filling the place. Located in a dingy corner of a cramped, airless, windowless basement room in the bowels of the wizarding congressional headquarters, it was said to be a painful contrast to the floors above, and gave the impression of being the sort of place where "utter no-hopers" worked.
History[]
In 1926, Porpentina Goldstein was demoted to Federal Wand Permit Officer[2] and Queenie Goldstein had a menial desk job in this office.[3] Abernathy was a supervisor of this department.[4]
