jrsavoie Posted August 12, 2018 at 02:36 PM Share Posted August 12, 2018 at 02:36 PM I got a letter stating my FOID card expires 11/01/2018. I thought your FOID was automatically renewed or something when you applied for Concealed carry. My CC expires 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ming Posted August 12, 2018 at 02:44 PM Share Posted August 12, 2018 at 02:44 PM But then they couldn't charge you again! As far as I know there is no automatic renewal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrsavoie Posted August 12, 2018 at 03:07 PM Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 at 03:07 PM I remember something about being told by the lady at 217 782 7980 that your FOID was suspended while they did the background check for the CC or something like that. She said that another guy that got CC at the same time should not apply for his FOID before the CC class. She made it sound like your FOID started over when You got your CC.But that was over 15 minutes ago, so I might not remember right. looks like I had better get applying for a new FOID or do the smart thing and move out of Illinois Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought your FOID was automatically renewed or something when you applied for Concealed carry. My CC expires 2021 You have to renew your FOID. It isn’t automatically renewed - the state needs your $10. They reissued FOID cards after you got your CCW so that your numbers matched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is far to much stupid in Illinois. This is just that little tiny thing that really elevated my desire to leave this state. Hopefully in 9 months or so, we will be making exit plans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InterestedBystander Posted August 13, 2018 at 06:04 PM Share Posted August 13, 2018 at 06:04 PM My FOID expires 2021. Didnt get replacement with CCL. Assume replacement FOID will still be expiring 2021 with CCL renewal and that expiring 2024. Might be nice if they could get both synced on same 5/10 yr cycle and expire date but they seem to be doing these based on issue date vs the prior expire date.

2smartby1/2 Posted August 14, 2018 at 02:28 PM Share Posted August 14, 2018 at 02:28 PM The whole process seems messy. I guess I kinda see why they are kept separate (you decide to let your CCL expire, but keep your FOID.....or your CCL gets pulled/suspended)...but it feels like a hassle.

jrsavoie Posted August 15, 2018 at 05:01 AM Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 at 05:01 AM I'd rather move than renew my FOID. Wish in one hand and poop in the other, see which fills up faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
