Delays Continue with FOID Card Renewals

Share

Delays continue in processing FOID card and Conceal Carry renewals with the Illinois State Police as numerous people are applying for FOID cards for the first time. Monmouth Police Chief Joe Switzer states for those waiting for FOID card renewals to hang onto their receipt:

“When you apply for your FOID card, you get a receipt that says you have applied for it. If you had a FOID card prior to that, that receipt will work for you until you get your actual FOID card. So you need to hang onto that receipt.”

According to the Illinois State Police website, 21,164 new FOID card applications were received in November 2020 alone.
