    (c) A resident of a state or territory approved by the Illinois State Police under subsection (b) of this Section may apply for a non-resident license. The applicant shall apply to the Illinois State Police and must meet all of the qualifications established in Section 25 of this Act, except for the Illinois residency requirement in item (xiv) of paragraph (2) of subsection (a) of Section 4 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. The applicant shall submit:
        (1) the application and documentation required under
    
Section 30 of this Act and the applicable fee;

            (A) is eligible under federal law and the laws of
        
his or her state or territory of residence to own or possess a firearm;
            (B) if applicable, has a license or permit to
        
carry a firearm or concealed firearm issued by his or her state or territory of residence and attach a copy of the license or permit to the application;
            (C) understands Illinois laws pertaining to the

        (4) a head and shoulder color photograph in a size
    
specified by the Illinois State Police taken within the 30 days preceding the date of the application.
    (d) In lieu of an Illinois driver's license or Illinois identification card, a non-resident applicant shall provide similar documentation from his or her state or territory of residence. In lieu of a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card, the applicant shall submit documentation and information required by the Illinois State Police to obtain a Firearm Owner's Identification Card, including an affidavit that the non-resident meets the mental health standards to obtain a firearm under Illinois law, and the Illinois State Police shall ensure that the applicant would meet the eligibility criteria to obtain a Firearm Owner's Identification card if he or she was a resident of this State.
    (e) Nothing in this Act shall prohibit a non-resident from transporting a concealed firearm within his or her vehicle in Illinois, if the concealed firearm remains within his or her vehicle and the non-resident:
        (1) is not prohibited from owning or possessing a
    
firearm under federal law;
        (2) is eligible to carry a firearm in public under
    
the laws of his or her state or territory of residence, as evidenced by the possession of a concealed carry license or permit issued by his or her state of residence, if applicable; and
        (3) is not in possession of a license under this Act.
    If the non-resident leaves his or her vehicle unattended, he or she shall store the firearm within a locked vehicle or locked container within the vehicle in accordance with subsection (b) of Section 65 of this Act.
