How long is a FOID card valid from the date of issuance?

  1. 5 years

  2. 10 years

  3. 3 years

  4. 1 year

The correct answer is: 10 years

A FOID card, or Firearm Owner's Identification card, is issued by the Illinois State Police and is valid for 10 years from the date of issuance. Option A, 5 years, is incorrect because it is not the longest validity period. Option C, 3 years, is also incorrect as it is a shorter validity period than 10 years. Option D, 1 year, is the shortest validity period and is also incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer is B, 10 years. It is important to note that FOID cards must be renewed before the expiration date to remain valid.
