ILgunguy Posted March 8, 2019 at 01:54 AM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 01:54 AM I know that in IL, if you applied for your CCL renewal before your expiration date, you are still good to carry. But what about carrying on your IL FCCL if you go out of state (obviously to where your IL is valid to begun with)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE KING Posted March 8, 2019 at 01:56 AM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 01:56 AM I would take a hard copy of the receipt for your renewal and a copy of the statute. 430 ILCS 66/70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cope Posted March 8, 2019 at 02:56 AM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 02:56 AM and be aware of the other states laws....... pretty good chance if you leave this state youre going somewhere that doesnt require any type of proof you are human enough to exercise basic human rights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soylentgreen Posted March 8, 2019 at 08:47 PM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 08:47 PM I would take a hard copy of the receipt for your renewal and a copy of the statute. 430 ILCS 66/70 This seems reasonable...but law enforcement is far from reasonable in many cases. If you choose to do this, expect a verbal confrontation at the very least...and be aware that putting up a verbal defense may, in fact, incriminate you in a crime. I would get a lawyer's opinion on this. Make sure the lawyer is well-versed in gun laws and the CCL statutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POAT54 Posted March 8, 2019 at 10:27 PM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 10:27 PM There are no states that have reciprocity with Illinois, There are many states that will honor Illinois or any other state license or permit. I would be leery if they would honor an expired license from the very special state of Illinois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other things to consider would be: How likely are you to get into a life threatening situation that would require the use of a gun? How likely are you to interact with LEO for any reason? How like is the officer going to ask if you have a weapon? I think all of the above are very unlikely to occur, but: If you run into a overzealous cop, you can hire a lawyer. If you run into a life threatening situation and are not armed, you or your survivors may have to pay a hospital, surgeon, and/or a mortician. Make your own risk/benefit assessment. I will not make the decision for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tip Posted March 8, 2019 at 11:12 PM Share Posted March 8, 2019 at 11:12 PM Relatively moot point for many of us (those who carry multiple CCLs). Illinois will honor expired Illinois License. Most of the other States you’d be legal to carry in you’d be legal under other licenses.... Think, for example, Illinois + Fla Non-res = 37 states (Illinois + 36 states) where just the Fla non-res gets you 34 of those states. (Too lazy to ferret out which 2(?) you’d lose since I’ve no travel plans at present) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarmHand357 Posted March 9, 2019 at 03:41 AM Share Posted March 9, 2019 at 03:41 AM Last I heard, applying about a month before you expire was getting the renewed license in the mail in time. I'd apply well in advance to be safe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lockman Posted March 9, 2019 at 10:17 PM Share Posted March 9, 2019 at 10:17 PM As long as you are under review for your renewal, you are good. If denied then you have a problem. ^ this *** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oohrah Posted March 9, 2019 at 10:24 PM Share Posted March 9, 2019 at 10:24 PM You would probably be good in Texas with a renewal receipt. Texas allows carrying renewal receipts for various registrations until the new ticket arrives in the mail. However, IANAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomG Posted March 10, 2019 at 12:18 AM Share Posted March 10, 2019 at 12:18 AM I also haze AZ CWP. Covers just about all the states that I carry in regularly, except Michigan. 0 worries in IL. I’m leaving my receipt and a copy of the law only in my car. Really the only place I would police interaction is in my car and even that hasn’t happened since before I got CCL.

HDUC10 Posted March 10, 2019 at 02:40 AM Share Posted March 10, 2019 at 02:40 AM My CCL renewal took 72 days to card in hand. Applied 12/17/18. ISP was turning renewals in ~3 weeks in early December. Then it started getting longer .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherryriver Posted March 10, 2019 at 09:31 PM Share Posted March 10, 2019 at 09:31 PM BigJim, what you say is true- except that for me, not having those tickets in hand, not going to work.On a more cheerful note, West Virginia went permit-less last summer, so when I got my Mountain State ride in this autumn, I saved the hundred bucks I used to spend on the Virginia non-res license (which was my easy way to West Virginia).

Gamma, West Virginia did not accept the Pennsylvania license the last time I was in the neighborhood. I suppose that speaks to my not spending enough time in the neighborhood. And, my Pennsylvania license had run out anyway, and getting up to Bellefonte just never seemed to happen.Road trip!And, to get back to the topic, I'm still on "Under Review".

If PA isn't as messed up as Illinois you may be able to talk to someone in charge. sorry to hear this happening to you. No appeal, that's their law, which is pretty straight forward. No hard feelings towards PA or the sheriff's office. I'm PO'ed at IL for taking so long at what should be a hand wave: I already have 5 years IL CCW, I've gone through the class requirements twice, I haven't even had a traffic ticket in the past 5 years. In the last year, I also picked up a FL license as well as the PA CCW. A renewal with clear documentation of the successful completion of the required class should be a quick process. IL created a re-registration scheme with its own bottleneck built in. I want to know what my $150 fee is paying for if they don't have enough staff to process these in a timely manner. This does affect our rights in other states. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
