Can a non-resident of Illinois apply for a FOID card?

  1. Yes, if they meet specific requirements

  2. No, under any circumstances

  3. Yes, without any specific requirements

  4. Only if they are moving to Illinois within six months

The correct answer is: Yes, if they meet specific requirements

Option B is incorrect because there are certain circumstances in which a non-resident of Illinois can apply for a FOID card, as stated in option A. Option C is also incorrect because there are specific requirements that must be met in order for a non-resident to apply for a FOID card. Option D may seem like a plausible answer, but it is not entirely accurate as there are other requirements that must be met in addition to moving to Illinois within six months. Therefore, the most accurate answer is A, as it takes into account both the specific requirements and the possibility for a non-resident to apply for a FOID card.
