How can a FOID card be reinstated after revocation?

  1. Automatically after 1 year

  2. After clearing the reason for revocation

  3. By submitting a new application

  4. It cannot be reinstated

The correct answer is: After clearing the reason for revocation

A FOID card can be reinstated after revocation by taking the necessary steps to clear the reason for the revocation. This may include submitting proof of compliance with any requirements or regulations that led to the revocation, such as completing a waiting period or attending a training course. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not address the necessary actions to take for reinstatement. Option A provides a specific timeline that may not apply in all cases and leaves out potential requirements for reinstatement. Option C suggests starting a new application, which is not the same as reinstatement of a revoked card. Option D is not entirely accurate as a revoked FOID card may be reinstated under certain circumstances. Therefore, option B is the best choice as it accurately describes the necessary steps for reinstatement of a revoked FOID card.
