A friend received her FOID yesterday and was surprised that the picture on it was not of her. All of the other info is correct, but a mystery woman's photo was printed on it. How does one get that fixed?

 

Ideas?

Tell her to call 217-782-7980 and talk to someone with the Firearm Services Bureau.

The picture is taken from your DL. I wonder if someone has stolen her identity and she just got a picture of that person.

This is a possibility. Someone has stolen her identity and got a replacement DL in her name with their own photo.

 

Or just a computer screw up somewhere. But the ID theft angle needs to be checked out ASAP.

I owe the group a follow up on this and it is pretty funny actually!

 

The picture on the FOID is the correct picture and not of another person at all. It is just an old picture from the FOID holders license and she simply did not recognize herself!

 

We ha a fun laugh about the whole thing when she showed me her FOID and I exclaimed 'but that is you about 8 years ago!'
