Can a person convicted of a felony own a FOID card?

Yes
No
Only if the felony was non-violent
Only with special permission from the state

The correct answer is: No

A person convicted of a felony is not allowed to own a FOID card, regardless of the type of felony or state permission. This is due to federal law which prohibits anyone who has been convicted of a felony to own a firearm, and a FOID card is required to legally own a firearm in most states. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
