ISP monitoring of FOID/CCL card holders.
In Illinois, the State Police conducts continuous background checks on concealed carry license (CCL) holders, rather than just running a check at the time of application or renewal. This was mandated by legislation passed in 2021.
The continuous monitoring process includes regular checks of multiple databases:
Daily state checks: The Illinois State Police cross-references all resident FOID card and CCL holders against state databases, including the Illinois Criminal History Record Inquiry and the Department of Human Services Mental Health System.
Quarterly federal checks: The State Police also monitors federal databases, such as the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), for both resident and nonresident license holders every quarter.
How the system works
The purpose of the continuous monitoring is to ensure that individuals remain eligible to possess a firearm and a concealed carry license.
Automatic license invalidation: If the system detects a "firearms prohibitor"—such as a new criminal conviction or mental health disqualifier—a person's FOID card and CCL will be immediately revoked.
Seizure of firearms: The 2021 legislation also requires the Illinois State Police to enforce the surrender of firearms from individuals whose FOID cards have been revoked. Local law enforcement may petition a court to seize the license and firearms if they are not surrendered.
Renewal background checks
In addition to the continuous checks, a full background check is conducted when a concealed carry license is renewed every five years. Submitting fingerprints at the time of renewal can expedite the process.
