NIFT, will IN residents qualify for IL non-resident permits considering our laws are not significantly similar to IL's?
I am interested in this as well. When traveling through the state I get tired of having to unload and lock up prior to entering the state. Will the class requirements also cover state/local laws?
NON-RESIDENTS
In accordance with 430 ILCS 66/40 (b), out of state residents may be eligible for an Illinois Concealed Carry License if your state meets the definition of substantially similar as established by rule. See 20 Il. Admin. Code 1231.10. Currently, the states identified below have been determined to have laws related to firearm ownership, possession, and carrying that are substantially similar to the requirements to obtain a license under Illinois’ law; and, therefore, may apply for an Concealed Carry License. This list will be updated as additional states are identified as substantially similar. Further Information concerning the regulations for non-resident applications can be found at 20 Il. Admin. Code 1231.110.
- Hawaii
Other requirements if your state meets the substantially similarly definition:
- 16 hours of Concealed Carry firearms training provided by an ISP approved Instructor.
- An electronic copy of a valid concealed carry license from my home state.
- Electronic Copy of my training certificate(s). You will be required to upload your electronic certificate during the application process.
- A head and shoulder electronic photograph taken within the last 30 days.

I just read that IN residents may not *yet* be eligible for obtaining an IL non-resident license. I hope this changes.
NIFT, can you shed some light on this?

Will the Illinois training also qualify one to get a Utah permit? Or is the Illinois permit recognized in Ohio?
