Mine also shows an expiration date today. Yesterday it was still showing covid . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illinois_buckeye Posted February 2, 2022 at 10:50 PM Share Posted February 2, 2022 at 10:50 PM It’s interesting you say that about the renewals. I got my foid in 2020, but I logged into the portal, I still haven’t gotten my ccl in the mail, which was supposed to have been printed on the 18th, but they show the ccl with an expiration of 1/18/2027 which should be correct, however the foid has been updated to show a new date of 1/18/2032 for expiration. So is that just due to the ccl? Should I expect they will send a new foid as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted February 2, 2022 at 10:53 PM Share Posted February 2, 2022 at 10:53 PM They should be sending a new FOID with a designation of CCL in the top right hand corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto for me too! I had just checked yesterday and saw the Renew data as COVID-19 The interesting thing is that for the FOID it does not show, at least yet, a new one being printed with the new expiration.

Bubbacs Posted February 3, 2022 at 02:37 AM Share Posted February 3, 2022 at 02:37 AM Just throwing this out there for those in the same boat. Wife's renewal was in July 2021. And this is what it says as of today. application ccl still under review. We have received your submission and your payment was successful. We have not yet reviewed any aspect of your application. It is in the verification queue. Haven't reviewed ANY parts of the application? Since July? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konyo312 Posted February 3, 2022 at 03:54 PM Share Posted February 3, 2022 at 03:54 PM Checked my FOID and CCL expiration dates on ispfsb site. They no longer state COVID-19. The original dates are restored. CCL expired and still waiting on renewal submitted January 2021. Still under review; no status change. Hopefully with the end of COVID, they will start processing and complete in 90-120 days. So now that my CCL is no longer extended under COVID and officially expired, I can’t legally carry, correct?

I get the EO is still in effect. But at what point does it make sense that there are those who applied 3 to 4 months ago got new cards and there are those of us who have seen no movement at all after 8 plus months? I mean their statement that they havent reviewed AMY part of the process would mean complete incompetency maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted February 3, 2022 at 05:49 PM Share Posted February 3, 2022 at 05:49 PM It's not a laundry basket, but close, in my opinion it's the original old computer system and anyone who renewed prior to July 2021 is stuck in there...

davel501 Posted February 3, 2022 at 06:29 PM Share Posted February 3, 2022 at 06:29 PM I wish one of the reforms they had implemented was strict first in first out processing with no exceptions. Just grab the next application off the pile and process it until it is approved or goes to a further review queue that is also picked up in order of arrival. It is a constitutional right so everyone should be treated equally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from the QC part of the process which should really be randomized periodic spot checks, I don't understand what part of this process isn't or can't be automated with little or no human involvement until the card needs to be put in an envelope and delivered to the post office.

Little Duck Posted February 3, 2022 at 10:10 PM Share Posted February 3, 2022 at 10:10 PM Day 194 CCL renewal. But they sure take the money fast enough. Just frustrating like others have stated. People have sent theirs in after me and had their card for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpeklund91 Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:14 PM Share Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:14 PM (edited) Going on 3 weeks with still no card in hand. Can't believe it takes 3 weeks to send a piece of mail. I renewed my license plates online and got my sticker within 2 days. I don't get it. They're probably just pencil-whipping applications to make it appear like they're meeting their established deadlines when in reality these cards have probably not even been printed as stated.

Getting annoyed that it’s taking this long to get a card that I effectively paid 300 dollars for(150 for class, 150 for the application). It should only take a few days to send mail.

Literally just said the same thing out loud. I understand that USPS is slow but I'm beginning to suspect it's ISP just marking it as complete when in reality they're just fudging the system to appear competent.

illinois_buckeye Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:57 PM Share Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:57 PM In that case they should owe time if that’s what they are doing. My card says it was active as of the 18th. It’s now day 18 if I count right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howie Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:57 PM Share Posted February 5, 2022 at 09:57 PM Sent the wife's CCW renewal off to ISP on March 14, 2021. Been under review ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solareclipse2 Posted February 7, 2022 at 04:25 PM Share Posted February 7, 2022 at 04:25 PM Well we're at 7 days since my CCL was supposedly printed and it hasn't showed up at my door BUT some new weirdness on the ISP website. It shows my FOID was printed on 02/05... so are they sending me a separate FOID and CCL? If they are sending separate cards, I wonder if they were holding them both to get mailed at the same time? or are they sending each one on it's own and just walking them from Springfield to Chicago? If they're sending me one of those new combined cards I wonder if the FOID printing date is the actual printing date? If that's the case it makes sense why I haven't gotten my CCL yet.

illinois_buckeye Posted February 7, 2022 at 05:31 PM Share Posted February 7, 2022 at 05:31 PM From what I was told, you will get a new foid with the ccl designation on it. I’m still waiting on mine from the 18th of January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbacs Posted February 7, 2022 at 05:33 PM Share Posted February 7, 2022 at 05:33 PM Let’s get real here. If others as posted have renewed from March, July, September of 2021 and they all say they got them but haven’t started ANY part of the process then there is a huge disconnect here. We can all agree the virus MAY have disrupted the flow of cards. But anything at or over 6 months which says nothing has been started should not be acceptable. Where and who are those speaking for us? Left on our own we are supposed to get a hold of Reps to make a complaint? That’s the exact definition of crazy, they either don’t like guns and if they do will not or just flat out don’t care about ruffling the feathers in Springfield. If things with the foid and CCL actually worked as stated in the statute, this web site would be nearly dead. Outside of the back room and out meme thread there would be no posts. /rant off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
