Dirty Harry Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:17 AM Share Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:17 AM Good evening. New to this forum. I applied for my first time license on 06/21. So did my friend, who lives in the same village as I. He has received his license but I am waiting. My status says pending. We applied on the same day, both had prints, live in the same town and even have our last names start with the same initial, if that means anything. Why did he get his and my app doesn't even have a number under status, only pending? There is only "under review" and not "board review" as I have since learned. What could be the delay? I don't have any issues with outstanding anything and certainly meet the requirements I have read about that can otherwise deny me if I didn't. I did get a compliance ticket just last week for a license plate cover, a 75 dollar fine. I do not think that was the issue as my friend already had his at the time. The only thing I can think of is that I am twice his age and therefore I might have more information out there to peruse? I do believe this last comment is the reason as my wife, of the same age, is still waiting on her FOID when she applied on May 2. She has never had anything on her record pretty much forever. Thoughts? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigcelia Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:41 AM Share Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:41 AM I don't think there is any rhyme or reason why his would be approved and your is still under review. Your compliance ticket won't get you an objection. Under review is fine, and yes, you don't want under board review. Board review is bad. I would just wait it out, have a drink, it will come.

InterestedBystander Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:46 AM Share Posted October 4, 2020 at 03:46 AM I would not get too stressed over the wife's FOID card. In spite of 30 days to issue by law, there are large volumes of applications and they are running behind on many. Ive seen posts of people taking up to 6 months. What does her status show in the portal? As for your CCL, a status of pending is a little different from what I have read...I would have expected it to be submitted at least. It shows as under review though, correct? I dont think your ticket or age is relevant. Does it show as paid for on the portal? Does the fingerprint TCN number show? Although if there was an app error I would have expected you to get a response about corrections needed. Could just be the delay in processing the volume of apps and the need to be patient. No doubt others more knowing can provide some better thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbacs Posted October 4, 2020 at 04:03 AM Share Posted October 4, 2020 at 04:03 AM A less than 90 day ccl is almost unheard of this year tor sure.Did you have a FOID before just asking since the wife is getting one.I’d check the portal as IB said above.

InterestedBystander Posted October 4, 2020 at 05:04 PM Share Posted October 4, 2020 at 05:04 PM Not that it will give you insight or a guess when it will get processed, you could do the inspect element thing in the browser and see if your hidden status is Submitted or maybe QualityControl Verified.

spanishjames Posted October 5, 2020 at 06:59 AM Share Posted October 5, 2020 at 06:59 AM There's been tremendous demand for FOID cards, CCL licenses, and everything related to firearms lately. I advise anyone who's been waiting an unreasonable amount of time for a FOID or CCL to call and complain about it to their State Representative and Senator.

As long as you dont go under board review its pretty much as good as its going to get that you can influence. So now you have (or had or will have) background check and LE 30 day objection period. Patience is your friend now. 60 days...90 days...120...145...it will get there eventually. Some have contacted their state senator and representative after 90-120 days but I dont know it has helped. The ISP FSB are short staffed and have an excess of applications, both FOID and CCL to process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Harry Posted October 10, 2020 at 04:10 PM Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 at 04:10 PM Hello everybody. Although I wait patiently, I still continue to check my status almost daily.
