  1. I also recently renewed my CCL. I had done an address change in 2022 (I think my FOID was also about to expire at that time.) and my FOID renewed with a 2032 expiration but the CCL expiration stayed at 2024. I submitted my CCL renewal Jan 10 and it was approved on Feb 7. FOID expiration is now 2034 and CCL is 2029.
  2. If the Greta Thunbergs of the world banned politicians, that would do more for reducing carbon emissions than any other single thing.
  3. If I'm going somewhere that I know I'll have to be disarmed, I'll do it before I get near there. Pull off into the outer edge of a parking lot or other area without people around and stow the weapon, then proceed to where I'll be parking. It's highly unlikely that anybody at my destination would know that there's a firearm in the vehicle.
  4. I just did mine last Fall. You'll need to do your DL first because they'll confirm that they match when you do your FOID/CCL.
  5. Wow! Now they have a time warp! They must be using J(elly) B(elly) Prikzter's gravity well to bend space-time.
  6. FOID was set to expire at the beginning of this month but was automatically extended until my CCL expiration in 2024; no new card received at that time. However, we recently changed our address and I submitted the change to ISP last Thursday, 9/15/2022. New card received yesterday at our new address. Only 4-days?! New FOID expiration is 9/15/2032 (not printed on the card) but CCL remains at the original 2024 date. What's the long AL: # on the new card? It ends with 09152022, which was the "Renewal" / "Address Change" date. The new card has my new DL photo.
  7. I was at the Illinois State Fair today and stopped by the ISP/FSB desk in the Illinois Building. I asked about my FOID originally expiring on September 1, but having been extended to my 2024 CCL expiration. I was told that my CCL will now act as my FOID as well and that I can download and save my E-FOID if I went to purchase a gun and they wanted a recent time-stamped version. When I renew my CCL in a couple of years, it'll be the new combo card. Maybe they'll have that figured out better by then.
  8. So will I get a new FOID card or not? My FOID Card shows an expiration of September 2022. My CCL Card shows an expiration of July 2024 (Renewed in 2019). When I renewed my CCL in 2019, I received a new FOID with a number and Issued date matching my CCL but still expiring later this year. I logged into my ISP account tonight and found that my FOID (online) now shows an expiration date that matches my CCL but a "Printed" date from when I renewed my CCL. I know it's a bit premature to worry about it, but this is ILL-ANNOY and I fully expect them to screw it all up...
  9. I would think that “McLean County Department of Parks and Recreation” is a “Park District” within the meaning of the Law. I was looking at Illinois laws about parks and came across 70 ILCS 1205, which is the Illinois Park District Code. It sounds like a "Park District" is a specific sort of entity with its own elected governing body (Commissioners, etc.). Is this what the concealed carry act was referring to? This makes me wonder if the McLean County Department Parks and Recreation could have been formed under this code since its Director appears to be appointed by the County Board and it doesn't appear to be organized under 70 ILCS 1205. As usual, Illinois' concealed carry law leaves me somewhat confused and questioning... Comlara Park is about 10-15 miles North of Normal and, as I said before, I haven't been up there in a while so maybe I'll take a trip to see if it's posted.
  10. (13) Any public park, athletic area, or athletic facility under the control of a municipality or park district... Comlara Park is just North of Bloomington/Normal and under the control of the McLean County Department of Parks and Recreation. Since McLean County isn't a "municipality", I wondered if its Parks and Rec Dept be classified as a "park district"? Should carry be permissible there as it is in a State Park? I haven't been there for some time and don't know if anything there is posted.
  11. Even better. I was once mailed a bill for 26 cents. Yes, they spent 40 cents on a stamp to bill me for 26 cents. Not to mention the printing, paper, envelope and administrative time they wasted. I taped a quarter and a penny to the invoice and wrote "you have got to be kidding me" on it and mailed it back. Had a Security Clearance held-up by a $0.29 bill from a gas company at a previous duty station. I mailed them a check and requested a receipt to give to the FBI as proof that I had paid it. Figured it had to have cost them more than that...idiots!
  12. After nothing but bills all week, FINALLY! Applied and Paid: 1/22 App #: 360XX Prints: Yes Active: 3/22 Meter-mark: 3/25 Arrived: 3/27 Been waiting a long time for this...and I'm not talking about the time since I applied for it...
