NEW F.O.I.D. CHANGES

illinois-state-police-2-3

The Firearm Owner Identification (FOID) process in Illinois should be more timely and convenient for Lawrence County and other gun owners in 2022. Starting Saturday January first, the Illinois State Police will streamline the application and renewal steps for cards by issuing cards that do not expire. Those who also have a valid Concealed Carry License (CCL) in Illinois will also benefit through the new process. When a current FOID card expires but a CCL is still valid, the FOID will automatically be renewed and no fee will be charged. More information on the refined process can be obtained by contacting the Illinois State Police website.
