mkhalil61 Posted June 22, 2017 at 11:17 PM Share Posted June 22, 2017 at 11:17 PM Here's what I don't understand about the whole process. If you already have a FOID, which is a required prerequisite for the CC permit and required a background check AND you already own firearms which also required a background check, how can they possibly put anyone "under review"? How can you be eligible for owning a firearm, but "under review" for the CC permit? Totally agree. It's just a way for the anti's to exploit the current system.

Your one of a few members on here that have recently been removed from Under Board Review. Did you have to send out a letter to the board on your behalf? Negative. Submitted CCW w/prints May 2016. Under board review June 2016. Went active June 20th 2017. Only correspondence I received was the 12 "30 more days" letters. Didn't have to do anything on my part but sit and wait.

mwb9122 Posted June 23, 2017 at 04:01 PM Share Posted June 23, 2017 at 04:01 PM I had a court case I was found not guilty of. I won my order to have it expunged. I was anxious and filed before getting the letter from ISP confirming it was removed from my record. Im guessing thats why I was objected. Lesson learned but Im happy the wait is over. I know its hard but everyone be patient, the review board is on our side! just checked today and its finally active after 12 letters its a good day! Congrats!

I'm really frustrated with the fact that no one gets held accountable for making you wait that long. I just hope my application does not drag out that long. The irony to this is that I received my Florida CCL in 20 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brownshoe Posted July 17, 2017 at 05:55 PM Share Posted July 17, 2017 at 05:55 PM Applied for CCL August 20, 2015Under Board Review October 30, 2015 What's terrifying about this is it took 71 days to even put you under Board Review. If LEOs have 30 days to object, this could imply the ISP sat on your application for over a month before even performing the background check.

Glock23 Posted July 17, 2017 at 06:07 PM Share Posted July 17, 2017 at 06:07 PM Applied for CCL August 20, 2015 Under Board Review October 30, 2015 What's terrifying about this is it took 71 days to even put you under Board Review. If LEOs have 30 days to object, this could imply the ISP sat on your application for over a month before even performing the background check. The objection window isn't the first 30 days... it isn't open until the ISP complete the initial background check. So if prints are submitted, the background check would have to be complete by day 60 to allow for the 30 day objection window (day 90 for apps submitted without prints).

04 Cobra Posted July 17, 2017 at 06:20 PM Share Posted July 17, 2017 at 06:20 PM It was a long wait, at the end of the day I stayed mostly positive and I came out on top with a win, It very well could've gone the other way . Hard for me to be bitter when I know that I have an ACTIVE IL CCL, the CCLRB wait and unknown is over. I hope IC along with member support continues to advance the carry rights of eligible applicants and decrease their wait times in the future.

skinnyb82 Posted July 17, 2017 at 11:24 PM Share Posted July 17, 2017 at 11:24 PM Makes sense. I guess the FOID is just a basic felon check, while the CC background check is more in depth by checking mental health records, law enforcement, etc.Negatory. FOID backgrounds include mental health admissions, drug rehab, everything that the FCCA covers except for print checks and medical records (which I signed a blanket waiver for, law has since been amended to pertinent medical records) for purposes of more thorough mental health stuff (I assume) and drug testing info (testing positive for an illegal substance within the preceding year). They should not need this much time. Period. Can't have more than two DUIs in the preceding 7 years...that's beyond stupid because the third is a felony, therefore it is a statutory disqualifier for all things "gun." And they should not be allowed to deny a right based on an arrest, misdemeanor or felony, unless there's an accompanying conviction. Especially from half a lifetime ago.
