Current FOID processing times


Recommended Posts

Our FOID cards expire 8/1/2018. I have heard that the cards are void during the processing times. How long prior to August should we submit our renewal applications to allow for processing?

 

Thank You

Legal act has been posted before. I thought they were still valid at least for a time. IIRC, they are supposed to send you a renewal notice 60 days in advance I thought, although that may not be happening. Maybe they open up the renewal button online then?

(430 ILCS 65/13.2) (from Ch. 38, par. 83-13.2)

Sec. 13.2. The Department of State Police shall, 60 days prior to the expiration of a Firearm Owner's Identification Card, forward by first class mail to each person whose card is to expire a notification of the expiration of the card and an application which may be used to apply for renewal of the card.

 

 

(a) Except as provided in subsection (a-5), a violation of paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Section 2, when the person's Firearm Owner's Identification Card is expired but the person is not otherwise disqualified from renewing the card, is a Class A misdemeanor.

 

(a-5) A violation of paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Section 2, when the person's Firearm Owner's Identification Card is expired but the person is not otherwise disqualified from owning, purchasing, or possessing firearms, is a petty offense if the card was expired for 6 months or less from the date of expiration.

My wife just applied for her first ever FOID card, it took 3 weeks from application to in hand. Id apply at least one month before expiration to be safe. They now use the picture off your drivers license Edited by bmurph44
