I've been trying to search an answer, and can't find it. I'm looking to leave Illinois, I'm going to a state that Illinois allows to get a non-resident ccl. Will Illinois allow me to convert my ccl to a non-resident license? Thank you.

The statute offers no provision to “convert” your CCL when moving to become a resident of a substantially similar state. The ISP will cancel your FCCL when you get your new driver’s license, and you will need to reapply for the IL FCCL once you obtain a permit or license in your new state.

 

Several on this forum have reported this happening to them in the past.

Welcome to Texas! (Saw you on the TexasCHLforum). I'm betting you will have to wait until you get your TX DL and LTC, then reapply and go through the whole non-resident procedure. But, at least you will be able to eventually get there.

The other question OP didn't ask is can he reuse his original training cert if he reapplies for a non-resident FCCL or will this lousy state make him take class again?

That's a really good question. I never thought about that.

Do you need an Illinois FCCL? Are you going to return to Illinois and visit?

 

Primary reason I want the non-resident is so I don't have to wait for my new ccl from the state I'm going to.

I don't know about other states, but when I moved to Michigan, they honored my Illinois permit and other non resident permits while I got my Michigan license. They also waived the six month residency requirement.

In which case, you still have your old CCL so use that until your new permit from your new home state comes in.

There's a reason you can't find an answer, Illinois non-residents ccl states ZERO.

Not sure what you’re trying to say.

 

At last count, 57 nonresidents had an IL CCL.

 

But you can’t convert from res to nonres.

We left Illinois last month... moved to South Carolina. Not the most tax friendly state, but better than Illinois. And, when we all leave, who will be left to pay the taxes?

Get a Florida license, honored in TX, before you leave. Turn around time for an LTC in TX is not too bad..

 

BTW, just saw TX LTCs are taking 20-60 days to issue, depending on BG checks.

Good idea. Thanks for the info!

Sure, if your definition of convert is submit a new non resident application and pay the non resident fees

 

(seriously though, no conversions)

 

If you didn't assume this, you are either new here, or don't pay much attention to our government...

When you use the words "will Illinois ALLOW ME TO ..."

The answer is no.

Illinois will not allow you to do anything unless you pay a large tax for it.

That's part of the reason why everyone - including me, are leaving the state

Where did you find the number of non-resident licenses?

There is a monthly (I think) post of data from a FOIA request

 

edit: Thought there was something more recent but here is an end of year data post
