CLADD Posted January 23, 2021 at 02:14 PM Share Posted January 23, 2021 at 02:14 PM I am a new member to this forum and excited to know about it. I have been struggling for two weeks in an attempt to complete my online CCL renewal form. I reached the point where I was completing the instructor information page and it kept rejecting my instructor's number. I checked the number and it was correct. I checked with the group with whom I completed the 3 hour renewal class, a state police person friend of mine, waited 2 1/2 hours on the phone for the state police with no one answering, called another state police contact who never called me back etc. Either no one knew what to do or in the case of the state police no one ever monitors the phones (I guess Covid has them all at home). Well at 2:00 AM this morning I woke up thinking about this stupid form and started searching the net. After several hours I ran across a 2018 post from this forum addressing my issue. One of the thread responders said you have to enter CCT in front of the instructors number. I had entered the number only and one time I even tried entering CCTID in front of the number with 0 success. I went back to my application and entered the CCT in front of the number and shazam it took it. I believe it would be a novel idea if someone would simply state on the form you must enter the CCT IN FRONT OF THE NUMBER sheesh!!! Enough of my rant - it's over. Thank you for this forum!!!!

Yettiblood Posted January 23, 2021 at 02:40 PM Share Posted January 23, 2021 at 02:40 PM I’m glad you got it figured out. I like to think of Smellinois as a giant TURD we all try to polish but it always comes out looking exactly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your post. Excellent idea or even have the CCT prefilled in that space. I have communicated your idea to ISP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbacs Posted January 23, 2021 at 04:45 PM Share Posted January 23, 2021 at 04:45 PM CCTCarry Conceal Trainer xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxx Who would have thought they would use the whole thing? The instructions we get from some trainers is unbelievable at best. No explanation. Sheesh P.S. on my certificates the CCT is preprinted in the same box as the instructor number goes?

Rmac702 Posted February 19, 2021 at 03:39 PM Share Posted February 19, 2021 at 03:39 PM Update: I renewed my CCL yesterday, and the CCT was already in the box, so I only had to enter instructors number. The entire application went smoothy, including loading the renewal certificate and my picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
