So I got my FID card back in 2008, at the time I did not get any handgun permits. About two weeks ago I applied for 1 (yes I know only 1) and was told that the FID card will expire in two years and I will have to be finger printed again. Is this a new Union county rule?

There be no expiration date on mine.

One would think that if something expired there would be an expiration

date listed so it can be renewed. I have had mine since 2005 and still buying guns.

Just bought 2 more this week.

FPID does not expire. It is good until revoked or if you change your address.

 

I talked to a lawyer and he said the police department has the option of making you get re-fingerprinted if you haven't bought a gun in the previous 2 years.
