What might disqualify you from receiving a FOID card?

  1. Failing a hunting examination

  2. Not having a valid driver's license

  3. A criminal record

  4. Refusing to pay state taxes

The correct answer is: A criminal record

Having a criminal record can disqualify an individual from receiving a Firearm Owner's Identification (FOID) card in Illinois. This is because individuals with certain criminal convictions are prohibited from owning firearms under state and federal law. Therefore, a criminal record would be a significant disqualifying factor for obtaining a FOID card.
