DD123 Posted February 24, 2019 at 03:23 PM Share Posted February 24, 2019 at 03:23 PM I've read a few different things about what happens if you fail to renew before the expiration, but figured I'd ask here to get a more definitive answer. My buddy is likely going to let his expire, and what I've heard is that if your license expires, you have to redo the entire 16 hours again, unless you only had to do 8 because you met all of the prerequisite criteria. Is this accurate? If so, would he also need to resubmit fingerprints, or will he be able to use the original prints he submitted? Seems weird to make people take the entire 16 hours, and not just 8 hours. But then again, this is Illinois. I don't know for sure, but figured someone on here will know for sure. I'll pass along the info to my buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look at the renewal letter, which is in this post: http://illinoiscarry.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=70552, says you need a new 16 hour certificate if your CCL expires. IMO, I would think submitted prints would be good forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leave it to Illinois to do something as stupid as requiring you to take the entire 16 hours even though you already took 16 hours. I can see requiring 8, but the entire 16 is retarded. I'm glad I got mine in because I'd have been slitting my wrists having to sit through that entire 16 hours again lol. That was BRUTAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The state gets their $150 in either case. The only difference is you don't have a CCL while they process, vs you do if you renew before expiration. Just my 2 cents.

TRJ Posted February 24, 2019 at 06:00 PM Share Posted February 24, 2019 at 06:00 PM Active! Submit 12/20/18Active 2/22/19 62 days (if I added that correctly) Not terrible, but doesn't bode well for people who want it in a month so they don't have to carry an expired card.

John Q Public Posted February 24, 2019 at 08:34 PM Share Posted February 24, 2019 at 08:34 PM @HDUC Mine went active today applied 12/17 active 12/22 previous exp was 12/28, so it worked out almost perfect. They should be sending FOID out as well. I saw that the numbers for CCL and FOID now match in my dashboard. I bet if I ran my current FOID number it would not be invalid. Good luck @JQP Our paths seem to have paralleled. Applied 12/17/18, active 2/22/19. 67 days from applied to active. And FOID and CCL numbers now match. My CCL originally expires end of March, so I lost a ~month I originally paid for. I think I've sensed / read new cards arriving at the beginning of the month for many. So our cards should be delivered soon! Here are all the milestones of my journey: 12/17/18: Applied for renewal with previous prints -> Submitted > Under Review02/06/19: QC_Verified > Under Review (51 days in)02/20/19: Approved > Under Review (65 days in)02/22/19: Active > Active (67 days in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spu69 Posted February 27, 2019 at 03:58 AM Share Posted February 27, 2019 at 03:58 AM And this is why some of us renewed early, giving up 3 months effectively.

I submitted renewal on Feb 8. I will carry as of March 1 and am not worried in the least. Ill Ill be legal. If I get harassed (no expectation of that happening), I have an unlawful arrest lawsuit.

DD123 Posted February 27, 2019 at 09:59 PM Share Posted February 27, 2019 at 09:59 PM Applied - 12/22/18 Approved - 2/13/19 Active - 2/23/19 I just went active this morning. What are the odds it hits my mailbox by 2/28 when it officially expires? The average I've seen between active and hitting the mailbox is 7-9 days. I'll update when it arrives. Received license today. So a total of 67 days from when I applied for renewal until it was in my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
