Trying to reinstate Foid after domestic

[Young_pvt]

@Molly B. can you please help me please? My FOID AND CCL was suspended for DV. Case was dismissed and I have disposition every email to ISP is kicking back. What should I do I was going to Mail the documents any advice please and thank you.

If it was suspended and not revoked your "new" FOID care will just show up in the mail. 

I've seen this happen twice, once as the actual letter said you can just give your card to another valid FOID holder and now he has two.  Police seemed surprised by the letter when presented when asked for his FOID.

Patience....

If you haven't already done so, be sure to fill out an FDR form, have it notarized and send it in.  The form says it is for "revoked" cards, but it also applies to suspensions.  Our experience over the past couple of months is that it can take several weeks to get any sort of reply to an email.

I mentioned elsewhere the police wanted my friends foid he showed them the paper and they were a bit surprised by it but he didn't give them his foid he gave it to me and all his firearms before he went to the station with that paper.  I questioned if he should sign a legal document that was clearly wrong.   Poof his a new foid AND ccl showed up in the mail a month or so later which also didn't make a heck of a lot of sense.
