I looked on thes ISP website and didnot see any place to ask a question Yes, you may take the class now or in October and do not have to wait. You can apply whenever ISP decides to activate the "renew" button on your ISP dashboard. One article from Guns Saves Lives suggested it would be available 5 months before your renewal is up, but that is not confirmed according to the article. Molly may know more about when they will be available for renewal but it seems like ISP keeps saying they are working on it and that is all we are getting from them. Also, they will not forward your CCL to an AZ address if you are forwarding your mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmagloo Posted August 15, 2018 at 08:24 PM Share Posted August 15, 2018 at 08:24 PM I guess my question is, what is the incentive to apply to renew earlier than necessary? Are they going to set the renewed date to a 5 year extension of the original expiration date like a drivers license, or 5 years from the renewal application date (whenever it's processed)? In the later, naturally you will loose some of the time you paid for, if your expiration date moves earlier? Naturally, it's probably safer to do it a little early, say a month or so, but how is the next expiration date going to be calculated, so we get our full 5 years out of these fees?

You can apply whenever ISP decides to activate the "renew" button on your ISP dashboard. What is meant by this dashboard? I went to the ISP’s website last night and saw there is an area to apply for a CCW but no option for a renewal process. Five years ago, we had to create an IL digital ID along with a username and password. When I chose the option to apply for a CCW, I noticed that the digital ID thing was no longer a requirement; just username and password. Since I still knew what credentials I chose 5 yrs ago, I tried those but got an error saying it was invalid. I tried doing a password reset, but it gave another error basically saying that my account can’t be found. Do we have to create a new account again for renewal?

stitch58 Posted September 15, 2018 at 08:55 PM Share Posted September 15, 2018 at 08:55 PM Just what "InterestedBystander" said, you have to create a new account. Once you enter your Drivers License and FOID number it will recognize your info. All mine was there including FOID,FCCL and fingerprint info.

It would make sense to me, but I ask the question as the State rarely makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrichard Posted November 26, 2018 at 07:22 PM Share Posted November 26, 2018 at 07:22 PM I have been asked a question to which I cannot find an answer. Two students who completed the 16 hour course a year ago, but did not apply for their CCLs due to an upcoming home purchase/move, have asked if their certificates are valid from 2017. Since the ISP has stated they are no longer accepting the old certificates (and I cannot get through via telephone to the ISP), has anyone received official answer to this dilemma? Common sense would dictate certs valid at time of training should be valid for application...but we are dealing with Illinois, where bureaucratic commen sense does not exist.

I'm due for renewal early March and received a letter in the mail from ISP about renewing CCL. Surprised me they sent out a reminder.Respectfully, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navreet Posted December 4, 2018 at 03:27 PM Share Posted December 4, 2018 at 03:27 PM Who Certifies the Certifiers? If you're an Instructor for CCW in Illinois, and are a CCW Permit Holder, who certifies you, when your permit to carry is up for renewal and you also need that 3-Hour Renewal Certification?

navreet Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:15 PM Share Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:15 PM Molly, I am doing my renewal application, and am an Instructor. On the ISP website, during renewal application, it is still asking me for my instructor's name, and CCT#. Why or how do I bypass that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly B. Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:22 PM Author Share Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:22 PM Before you get to that or somewhere on that page is the option to click on the exemption.

navreet Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:33 PM Share Posted December 4, 2018 at 04:33 PM Thank you, Molly. I saw where there is a box for Exemption on the same screen where you are asked to enter your instructor's name and CCT#. Application complete and submitted for a renewal date of 02/28/2019.

navreet Posted December 6, 2018 at 04:28 PM Share Posted December 6, 2018 at 04:28 PM There is an Exemption Box you need to check on the same page, where ordinarily, you'd be entering the instructor's name and CCT#. The box is located in the second half of the page. No Re-Cert required for Instructors to renew CCL. Hope, this helps. Note: I just sent my CCL Renewal a couple of days ago. Send your application as soon as you get the notice to Renew. Any delay may result in being without valid CCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
