Anyone have experience in obtaining a duplicate FID to replace a lost one? I've heard it's just like applying for an original; references, wait time, etc. 

Sadly, its a re-application.  Start over.

 

Just like a new one. And once I got that one I did it all over again to have a spare in the safe!

Like the others stated, same process as original.  My last one took me almost 6 months.

Outrageous!

Wait! So I can legally have 2 NJFID cards?

 

Not that I have extra time or money, but getting a second one just in case is not a terrible idea.

I had to replace one in the beginning of the year. Required filling out a police report so it seemed like a normal formality. Had the replacement card and 2 p2p's in less then 2 months. The card now is marked duplicate so I'm not sure if they have a way to cancel the original. Didn't have to jump thru any hoops, no fingerprints just the same forms as the p2p with one extra box checked. Pretty simple process woodbridge township is easy to deal with hope your town's just as simple.

The card being checked original or duplicate makes no difference in it's use.

Mine even had the exact same numbers

Good to know! I would like to have a spare just incase I lose the one I carry.
