My daughter is moving to IL soon for a couple of years and attending college. She'll keep her primary residence here with us (TN).
Are there any restrictions (such as FOID) for her to have a firearm in her home or transport? She'll have a TN conceal carry permit but I know there isn't reciprocity there. Thanks! |

View Quote She can keep the pistol loaded in her car with her out of state permit. I'm not sure how Illinois would view residence for a student. She can not get an FOID if she is out of state resident but she doesnt need one in that case. Pretty sure she will not be able to buy pistol ammo so bring enough. |

The biggest issue your daughter will face will be if she lives on campus. If she lives off campus, the school administrators won't have anything to say about having a firearm in her living quarters.

One thing is to make sure that the out of state permit still applies if they consider her a resident of Illinois.
I would ask the school. I take you are paying out of state rates ? My sons legal address is my house his mail comes there. Car insurance says he lives here. He lives one town over in an apartment but this is considerd his legal address. I think student can have a legal address other than the school. I would check on this. |

Brave man, sending your daughter into a hive of peak leftist brainwashing. I live here and I'm looking for out of state colleges, seen too many women's lives obliterated by falling in with the crazies at colleges here.

If she's in Lake or Cook, those are the only counties enforcing the gun ban/registry. Any other county "should" be relatively ok with firearms.

Who needs a FOID Card? Are there exemptions to the requirement of having a FOID Card? Yes. The FOID Act outlines the following exemptions. United States Marshals, while engaged in the operation of their official duties. Members of the Armed Forces of the United States or the National Guard, while engaged in the operation of their official duties. Federal officials required to carry firearms, while engaged in the operation of their official duties. Members of bona fide veteran's organizations which receive firearms directly from the armed forces of the United States, while using the firearms for ceremonial purposes with blank ammunition. Nonresident hunters during hunting season, with valid nonresident hunting licenses and while in an area where hunting is permitted. Nonresidents while on a firing or shooting range recognized by the Department of State Police. Nonresidents while at a firearm showing or display recognized by the Department of State Police. Nonresidents whose firearms are unloaded and enclosed in a case. Nonresidents who are currently licensed or registered to possess a firearm in their resident state. Un-emancipated minors while in the custody and immediate control of their parent or legal guardian and the parent or legal guardian currently has a valid FOID card. Color guards of bona fide veteran's organizations or members of bona fide American Legion bands while using firearms for ceremonial purposes with blank ammunition. Nonresident hunters whose state of residence does not require them to be licensed or registered to possess a firearm and only during hunting season. The nonresident must have a valid hunting license and be accompanied by and be using a firearm owned by, a person who possesses a valid FOID card. This is allowed only while in an area within a commercial club licensed under the Wildlife Code where hunting is permitted and controlled, but in no instance upon sites owned or managed by the Department of Natural Resources. Resident hunters who are properly authorized to hunt and, while accompanied by a person who possesses a valid FOID card, hunt in an area within a commercial club licensed under the Wildlife Code where hunting is permitted. View Quote Assuming we are talking about a pistol with mags that fall under the AWB limit, and she has a TN CCL, and the firearm is unloaded and cased while moving from the vehicle to abode, she should be OK. IL allows non-residents to carry in their vehicle if they have a CCL from their home state. If it leaves the vehicle it needs to be unloaded and cased. |
