My license was in my mail today!


Recommended Posts

Just out of pure curiosity, what is really meant by QC Verified? Obviously I get that it means your app has passed quality checks and everything is in order. But does this also mean your prints, photo, and training cert were verified good to go? I've heard of guys waiting 60 days just to get rejected for a unreadable training cert and starting back at day 0. So does QC Verified basically mean everything is in-line and just waiting approval now?

I believe so, yes.

Card in hand today yay! Grabbed the mail on my way to Wally World. Guess I'll have to come back later for my walk.

 

Applied 4/9

Active 6/8

 

Card doesn't feel as sturdy as the FOID - kinda weird.

 

Edit: Scratch that - my memory is terrible apparently. Cards feel identical.

Active 6/8

 

That's funny, my FOID card went active 6/7 and still isn't here yet. :(

Mine when active 6/9 and isn't here either. I'd assume that the office will be flooded with new applicants and they might slow down with what happened at Orlando, so who knows when ours will be here.

 

Got to get stuff before the dealers wise up and jack up the prices.

My FOID took a couple weeks to get here once active. I thought it was odd as well that the CCL came so quickly. Few folks active the same day as me got there a couple days sooner than me even. Probably closer to where they're mailed from I guess since I'm way down south.

That sucks, I might have jumped the shark a bit. A FFL has a firearm and I obviously can't pick it up without my FOID. The 23rd will be 30 days.

 

I did see plenty of folks getting their FOID (recently) before the 30 day mark, so I might have gotten overly optimistic.

 

I am very glad I got both my CCL and FOID application in pre-Orlando, tho. CCL times seem to be ~60 days right now, hopefully a flood of new applicants doesn't slow that down. Here's to hoping mine was in the mail before Orlando. :)

That's reassuring to know. >.<

 

I feel like a kid again waiting for Christmas for my FOID card to reach me.

Do you have your CCL, but not the FOID? You can certainly use the CCL to buy things. I haven't had trouble.

Negative, I applied for my CCL once my FOID went 'active' - I imagine I won't see the CCL for 60+ days. Just also purchased a firearm when the FOID went Active, so my FFL obviously needs to see the FOID before I can pick it up. :)

I just went to the site today and my CCL went active today. Kind of stoked. What is the average time that it takes to ship out? I submitted my application on 5/12.

Might be a couple of days or a couple of weeks. Is the printer broken again? :-) Are they at the beginning or the end of a cycle collecting cards for a bulk batch send out? Id say give it 2 weeks and be happy if it arrives sooner. I think mine was around 3-5 days IIRC.

My understanding is that when it goes active it means that the card was ordered and then the process is automatic since. Feds are doing it with Green Cards and it takes them 5 days from order to mailbox. I am waiting too, my got Active this morning as well.

I was checking so much and I promised myself that if it wasn't active today I wasn't gonna look for a couple of weeks lol. Ok a week would be cool. Congrats to you as well.

Applied without prints on 3/30

Active on 6/27

 

Not too bad, now just have to play the waiting game...

 

I suppose I will not have to wait to get a new FOID card though. I noticed after I took the CC class that I hadn't updated my address from when I moved. Went ahead and applied for an address change first and received my new FOID card. When it went active yesterday, I noticed my CCL number matches my current FOID number.

Wow! Congratulations!

Thank you! You're still the reason I have a FOID card and I will never forget that. BIG DONATION to IC if I win the lottery.
