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 is valid for 10 years from the date of issuance, meaning it does not need to be renewed until after 10 years have passed. The other options, A, C, and D, are incorrect because they provide shorter time periods. A FOID card is not valid for just 5, 3, or 1 year from the date of issuance, so if any of these options were chosen, the card would expire sooner and need to be renewed more frequently. This can cause inconvenience and additional fees for the individual obtaining the card. Therefore, it is important to take note of the correct expiration date of 10 years for a FOID card.
