What is the processing time for a FOID card application?

  1. 30 days

  2. 60 days

  3. 90 days

  4. 120 days

The correct answer is: 60 days

The processing time for a FOID card application is typically 60 days. This may vary depending on a variety of factors such as the volume of applications, completeness of the application, and delays in background checks. Option A (30 days) is incorrect because it is a shorter processing time than the actual average. Option C (90 days) and D (120 days) are both incorrect because they are longer processing times and not within the typical range. It is important to note that these processing times are subject to change and may be longer during busier periods.
