I received a e-mail dated April 9th from ISP indicating they were working on the middle of Jan. applications. My application was received Jan. 28th. He said it would at least be another two weeks before they would be working on my application.
When did you send them that email? I sent them a email about a week ago trying to figure out what happend to my LTCH. My entire family filed for theirs 2 days after me and they already got theirs. Yes I have a misdemeanor but would love to know how much of a delay that is going to make
So I have verified for myself that they will no longer check on the status over the phone. I called in this morning asking about my application that I submitted on Nov 7th and all the (very nice) woman could offer me is that if there were ever criminal charges (even if I wasn't convicted) against me that could be what is holding the application up.
Firearms Licensing
The ISP Firearms Licensing Section is currently experiencing a higher-than-normal volume of applications. Therefore, applicants should anticipate the following timelines:
For those using MorphoTrust (formerly L-1 Fingerprinting Solutions)--9 to 11 weeks from the date your money order was cashed.
This just pisses me off to no end. I have NO, ZERO, NADA, record of any kind. Never been to the police station, never questioned, never detained. No illnesses, no medications. I L1'd back on 1-8-13. It should NOT take 14 plus weeks for ME to get my freakin License. I did everything right. I applied online. I paid online via credit card. I paid the extra fee and I L1 printed the very next day. I paid the local PD in cash the same day I LI printed. I did EVERYTHING THEY wanted me to do to help expedite the process. I have NOTHING in my past that would hold up the approval. ISP wont answer emails in a timely fashion and NOW they wont even talk to me on the phone to TRY to help me figure out what is the dealio with my app and why it is taking so long.
I am seriously considering contacting my Representative.
My daughter took hers in Tuesday and was told 8 to 12 weeks; Others have been saying 12 weeks on the nose from what I've heard elsewhither.
I feel everyones pain and hate the wait!
Applied online 01-14-13
L1 and local PD on 01-21-13
Squeeky clean record-1 speeding ticket deferred 6 years ago
Resident of Lake County
Currently at day 81 with no permit
Have seen wait times average 78-85 days L1
Hopefully Within the next week!
I wonder if it has anything to do with when you filed your online app. I did mine on 12-28 but couldn't get an L1 appointment until 1-10. Still nothing here either.

I am so there with you. I applied 1/14 L1, paid CC and paid local PD with cash. WHAT THE HECK!? I hoped it would finally be here today but no good. We are moving in a month, I dont know what Im gonna do if its still not here then. I respect the police and what they do but it has almost been 14 weeks. No record.
I dont think so. I applied 1-7-13 and was able to schedule L1 1-8-13. I received a confirmation email from ISP on 1-10-13 stating that my application and electronic prints had been received.
