ocean223 Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:01 AM Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:01 AM Just curious why they would do this. The new FOID number matches the number on the concealed carry licence. The expiration date on the FOID has not changed ,however.What do I do with the old FOID card? Cut it up, send it back, or throw it in a drawer? They provided no direction.Just curious.Thanks for you help in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euler Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:12 AM Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:12 AM If the old FOID number and the new FOID number match, you have a spare FOID If they don't, the old one has been superseded. I'd say just chop it up and toss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocean223 Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:20 AM Author Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 12:20 AM Thank you. I'm sure it has been superseded by the concealed carry number as they now match. Off to the trash it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InterestedBystander Posted March 24, 2018 at 01:11 AM Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 01:11 AM When CCLs began being issued, the number was the old FOID number preceded by 14 iirc. A bit of time into issuing CCL licenses, the ISP began sending new FOIDs with a new CCL where both numbers matched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagoresident Posted March 24, 2018 at 01:12 AM Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 01:12 AM Gotta love it, FOID funding shortfalls takes money out of the Department of natural resources budget so they can issue FOID cards with matching numbers. Even the antigun politicians admit FOID doesn't do anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euler Posted March 24, 2018 at 10:57 PM Share Posted March 24, 2018 at 10:57 PM Doesnt ISP always send a new FOID with a CCL? Nope. I got my FOID after whatever the critical date was. When I got my CCL, it had the same number as my existing FOID. I got no new FOID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingcreek Posted March 25, 2018 at 01:51 PM Share Posted March 25, 2018 at 01:51 PM Such a well designed system and makes perfect sense. I wonder why all the other states don't do it like Illinois? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splash Posted March 26, 2018 at 08:12 PM Share Posted March 26, 2018 at 08:12 PM For those with old FOID (before the FCCL) you will get a new FOID card together with your CCL with matching numbers. Those who did not get a new FOID card means your card is already current with whatever numbering convention for CCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitedog Posted March 27, 2018 at 01:34 PM Share Posted March 27, 2018 at 01:34 PM The early rounds of FCCL's issued did not receive the updated FOID. They said I will get my new one when my renewal is due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
