illinois shotgun permits
Has anyone received their permit(s) or confirmed the issue status online yet?
What's the earliest date we can apply for additional permits?
My trigger finger is getting a bit itchy.

RE: illinois shotgun permits
I haven't received mine in the mail yet but have confirmed that I will be gettin them in the mail. But one of my friends applied online for his tag and something got screwed up and his name isn't in the system so he's gonna have to give the second lottery a try. And my g\f applied for a tag. Had it sent in on time and everything and her name doesn't come up when you try to access it in the confirmation system. I think they should be in the mail the next couple weeks. Only 5 months till gun season. A little over 4 months for bow!

RE: illinois shotgun permits
Make sure you type the EXACT same name when you enter it. It is kind of confusing sometimes in IL's site. Also, it does take up to 2-3 weeks for your name to show up. You can also call the state, and they'll know.
A couple years back I was applying for a Turkey permit. It was the first yeare they did the online drawing system. Well, I kept entering my info and nothing. Finally I called the state and they told me it would be a couple weeks. Then after a couple weeks I called again. Well, I was entering the info wrong.

I applied for tags last night. Every county had tags remaining after the April 30 draw.
Just be patient. Illinois residents get two draws before any nonresidents get a chance. Their draw is in August.
Good luck-

ALRIGHT!!!!!!!!
Just checked IDNR website. All 5 of our guys got just what we wanted. @ permits apiece-full season. "Bout time they got that site running right.
Now we just got to get 10 deer to "sign-up" for these permits. Any takers? Large rack bucks and fat does please step to the front!
