RECarry Posted March 29, 2021 at 04:16 AM Share Posted March 29, 2021 at 04:16 AM (edited) First time poster and 70 days since I applied. I talked to a lady on the ISP customer service number. The QC is complete and is OK. Now waiting for the background check. She said it can take 8 months. If you apply to rent an apartment, a background check comes back in 24 hours. A Utah permit takes about two weeks. Edited March 29, 2021 at 04:17 AM by RECarry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, landlords are good-hearted people who don't care all that much who they rent to? Either way, what does ISP do that's takes so long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incog Posted April 5, 2021 at 08:21 PM Share Posted April 5, 2021 at 08:21 PM Just logged on to ISPFSB. I'm finally active as of 4/2/21 (haven't received card, however). Total 241 day wait for FOID renewal sent in last August.I guess I should be relieved that it "only" took about 8 months.Good luck to everyone else waiting out there.Incog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsewalk Posted April 6, 2021 at 08:17 PM Share Posted April 6, 2021 at 08:17 PM My wife's application went in 6/23/2020 and is still under review. No response from an email to ISP or from my state rep.Is this a first time application or renewal? First time - application. As of today my wife's FOID is active on the site.

lawman Posted April 9, 2021 at 03:55 AM Share Posted April 9, 2021 at 03:55 AM Foid renewal 242 days til approval, 6 days to arrive in mail. Only saving grace is expiration date is 10 years from date of issue, not from the expiration of the old one. Don't tell Jabba that I got 5 months for free. There will be a bill to "fix" that next session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swvadude Posted April 15, 2021 at 01:32 AM Share Posted April 15, 2021 at 01:32 AM Do we have to wait for the actual card to buy firearms? My FFL did not accept a printout of the ISPFSB status page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InterestedBystander Posted April 15, 2021 at 01:50 AM Share Posted April 15, 2021 at 01:50 AM (edited) Do we have to wait for the actual card to buy firearms? My FFL did not accept a printout of the ISPFSB status page.Its up to the local FFL policies. They would be more inclined to accept printout of your payment I think. ISP FAQ My FOID card shows that it is expired, but these rules mean that it is still valid. I went to my local dealer and they refused to sell me ammunition and/or a firearm. Why? Dealers are required to check your FOID card before selling ammunition and/or a firearm. A dealer may decline to sell ammunition and/or a firearm if they so choose. Policies on this issue may vary from store to store. Federal regulations pertaining to the purchase of ammunition and firearms have not changed Edited April 15, 2021 at 01:52 AM by InterestedBystander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atom Posted April 17, 2021 at 09:45 PM Share Posted April 17, 2021 at 09:45 PM Finally received my FOID after 293 days! It went active on 4/12 and arrived today. so 288 to be processed and 5 days for the card to arrive. Thankfully the wait felt a bit shorter because I was working full-time pharmacy throughout 2020.
