What might delay the processing of a FOID application?

  1. Incorrect information on the application

  2. Applying during a holiday season

  3. Not being an Illinois resident

  4. Having a common name

The correct answer is: Incorrect information on the application

Incorrect information on the application might delay the processing of a FOID application because any inaccuracies or missing details may necessitate further verification or clarification by the authorities. Providing incorrect information can lead to delays as additional steps may be required to ensure accuracy and compliance. It is important to thoroughly review and double-check all information before submitting a FOID application to avoid unnecessary delays in the processing timeline. Applying during a holiday season, not being an Illinois resident, and having a common name are not factors that would typically delay the processing of a FOID application. These reasons do not directly impact the verification and evaluation process of the application itself.
