PERC / Firearms Card Check My Status

FINGERPRINTING STATUS INFO
(How to Check on your Fingerprints AFTER Printing):

ONLINE: Click HERE.  Fingerprint results return within 48-72 hours (Illinois State Police-dependent; could take longer).

 

FINGERPRINTING ONLINE STATUS INFO: A PERC Card applicant's fingerprints will show one of two statuses: "PENDING" or "ELIGIBLE."


  1. “PENDING” means the fingerprints have been received by the Illinois State Police and are in process.
  2. “ELIGIBLE” means your fingerprint check of your background makes you eligible for the issuance of the PERC card.


TELEPHONE (If fingerprints still show “PENDING”): You may call the Illinois State Police Bureau of Identification at (815) 740-5160 or email Illinois State Police Bureau of Identification at ISP.BOI.Customer.Support@illinois.gov. In the title of the email, you will type in the email header FINGERPRINT STATUS INQUIRY - Your Last Name, Your First Name. You will need Transaction Control Number (TCN), beginning with "LS", that is found on the bottom of your fingerprint sheet. 

 

PLEASE NOTE: The fingerprint vendors have nothing to do with the reason your fingerprints may take longer to clear. Any issues regarding your fingerprints and their status will be told to you by the Illinois State Police. If your fingerprints show “PENDING”, ISP received your fingerprints. In order to work while waiting for your PERC card, your fingerprints MUST be listed as "ELIGIBLE." BE ADVISED: If you have a background, your fingerprints will be in a "PENDING" status until Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) schedules a conference with you regarding the allowance/approval of your PERC Card application. Be patient. A background does not mean you will be denied.
