Are non-U.S. citizens eligible for a FOID card?

Yes, with permanent resident status
No, under any circumstances
Yes, with a valid visa
Only with proof of hunting license

The correct answer is: Yes, with permanent resident status

Non-U.S. citizens are not automatically disqualified from obtaining a FOID card. While B states that non-U.S. citizens are ineligible under any circumstances, this is not true. Both A and C are correct in stating that non-U.S. citizens can be eligible for a FOID card, with the main difference being the type of immigration status required (permanent resident status versus a valid visa). Option D mentions a hunting license, which is not a requirement for obtaining a FOID card. Therefore, the most accurate and complete answer is A, as it specifies the necessary requirement for non-U.S. citizens to be eligible for a FOID card.
