Can someone under the age of 21 apply for a FOID card with parental consent?

Yes, but only at 18 years old
No, under any circumstances
Yes, any age with parental consent
Yes, but only if they are at least 16 years old

The correct answer is: Yes, but only if they are at least 16 years old

In Illinois, individuals must be at least 21 years old to apply for a Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) card. However, minors who are at least 16 years old can apply for a FOID card with parental consent. This option is the correct answer because it accurately reflects the minimum age requirement and the provision for minors to apply for a FOID card with the consent of a parent or legal guardian. It is essential to note that individuals under 18 are still subject to certain restrictions and requirements when applying for and possessing a FOID card.
