DURTY1 Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:21 PM Share Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:21 PM Hi all,I have been reading the forum for a while and just ran into my first CCL conundrum. I applied for my license and received it in March. All is good, I am a very happy man! With my new responsibility of carrying a firearm, I wanted to err on the side of caution with regards to identification. My picture at the DMV which is used on the CCL is over 10 years old. Since then I have grown up a bit (it was taken on my 16th birthday) as well as had minor facial surgery. The picture is me, but a very very young me. In addition to my old picture, I moved to a new apartment. I went down to the DMV and got a new license with the updated address and pretty new picture. I submitted for a new FOID card, after about a month it was received with the new address and picture. I then submitted for a new CCL and it was received with the new address, but OLD picture. I called the ISP and the gentleman on the phone was pretty stumped. He could see the new DMV picture in the system, but said I didn't request an update when paying my $75 for the update of address. That is true, but there is no provision for requesting it during an address update. In addition, I figure every time the ID is printed it pulls the photo straight from the DMV (just like the FOID did). He told me I could pay $75 again and request an updated photo--not happening. Or, send them a fax explaining the issue. Anybody have advice for this? Thanks! Durty in Chicago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmer Fudd Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:25 PM Share Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:25 PM Yea....relax and deal with it.....we could take a poll on this forum and get a list of the people that would gladly trade for a CCL with an old photo in two seconds.

DURTY1 Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:53 PM Author Share Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:53 PM Thanks for the input guys. I am not sure what they would trade, or why? All they have to do is train, fill out paperwork and pay. It was really quite easy. My only thought is while the money is still fresh in ISP hands to suggest that they made an error on the card by not updating the picture. If I wait, that would obviously be out the window.

Elderberry Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:59 PM Share Posted May 13, 2014 at 01:59 PM Apparently there is not a step in their process to update everything... Looks like you have uncovered another "glitch" that needs fixed... Send Molly a pm explaining the issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0beit Posted May 13, 2014 at 02:05 PM Share Posted May 13, 2014 at 02:05 PM Same thing they did to my FOID when they issued it, probably similar will happen to my CCL! It's not that big of a deal, as long as they say it's valid it's fine by me. I was slimmer in my DMV photo anyway, heh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulkucz Posted October 21, 2014 at 09:24 PM Share Posted October 21, 2014 at 09:24 PM They used my old DL photo on my CCL, which matches my old (current) FOID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
