What information is required on the FOID application?

  1. Only name and address

  2. Name, address, and date of birth

  3. Name, address, date of birth, and driver's license number

  4. Name, address, date of birth, and Social Security number

The correct answer is: Name, address, date of birth, and driver's license number

The FOID application requires not only the name and address of the applicant, but also their date of birth, and driver's license number at a minimum. It may also ask for additional information such as Social Security number, but this is not a requirement for all applicants. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not include all of the required information. Option C is the best choice as it includes all of the required information for the FOID application.
