Ranger Posted July 22, 2019 at 09:42 PM Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 09:42 PM Applied for renewal of CCL in April. Still "Under Review" at ISP. FOID expires October 1, 2019. FOID card has old address. Any recommendations if I should go ahead and apply for FOID renewal now or give it another month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POAT54 Posted July 22, 2019 at 09:47 PM Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 09:47 PM I do not believe you can apply for the FOID renewal until CCL has been completely processed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbacs Posted July 22, 2019 at 10:09 PM Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 10:09 PM If you put in the FOID it may roll back the CCL until they are both reviewed Many guys have posted here about doing either an address change after applying orthrying to get the other done and it starts the timeline all over again.

ScopeEye Posted July 22, 2019 at 10:32 PM Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 10:32 PM I thought there was a window for FOID renewal like 90 days before expire, humm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundguy Posted July 22, 2019 at 11:32 PM Share Posted July 22, 2019 at 11:32 PM A couple renewals ago I almost forgot to renew and did so just a couple weeks before it expired. I actually had the new one back in just over a week. I think you should wait until your CCL is in hand or until last week if the FOID term.

buckhunter71 Posted July 23, 2019 at 03:24 PM Share Posted July 23, 2019 at 03:24 PM I would say to wait too, and see if you get your CCL beforehand. I'm in this same situation where my CCL renewal came up 4 months before my FOID renewal so I couldn't renew both at the same time. I waited the 90 days (with prints) for the CCL renewal, and it never processed. I went ahead and processed my FOID renewal at 30 days before it expired because I assumed the state didn't want to spend the extra money on processing me and sending me a CCL and a new FOID that would have only been valid for a month. Needless to say, I'm still waiting for both and they both show in the system as Submitted and Under Review. I don't know if the state is ignoring processing any CCL's if the corresponding FOID is up for renewal within X number of days... I think my situation shows the state won't process your CCL renewal if the FOID expires within 4 months, Ranger's example will bump that timeframe out to 6 months if he doesn't get his CCL due to pending FOID expiration. At least anyone in the future here can read these situations and possibly see if they'll have possible lengthy renewal times too. Carry on for free I say.... It'll be 5 months free CCL carrying for me in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted July 23, 2019 at 05:08 PM Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 at 05:08 PM I'll wait (and update this thread when anything changes). Thanks everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rchunter72 Posted July 27, 2019 at 02:18 AM Share Posted July 27, 2019 at 02:18 AM So this is my story I applied for ccl renewal on March 15 2019 been waiting, since foid expires on September 1 I applied on July 5 to renew it, it became active today. I tried numerous times to contact the state police on how long It is taking. Finally talked to someone today and she advised me that the ccl process completely stopped when I applied for my foid card renewal, lesson learned. She said expect another 45 days.

Ranger Posted July 31, 2019 at 06:51 PM Author Share Posted July 31, 2019 at 06:51 PM I logged in today. It shows my CCL went active July 25th (applied in April). After seeing that it was now active (even though haven't received yet), I went ahead and applied for FOID renewal. Had a disruption and website timed out as uploading picture. Went back in and it had purged years resided at previous locations. Did best guess on only prior one needed (been at current location almost 10 years), deleted previous ones, and completed application. Pretty doubtful it will match previous answer exactly. Hope that doesn't mess things up. Also, noted the link / notice to the FOID card overcharge class action lawsuit on the ISP site too... http://www.foidcard.info/home.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
