The correct answer is: No, it's not required at all

Fingerprinting is not required for FOID (Firearm Owners Identification) card applications or renewals. While some states may require fingerprints for certain gun license applications, this is not the case for Illinois FOID card. Therefore, options A and C are incorrect because they state that fingerprinting is required in some capacity. Option D is also incorrect because it suggests that fingerprinting may be requested, when it is not required at all. Option B is the correct answer as it accurately states that fingerprinting is not required for FOID card applications or renewals in Illinois.
