Illinois Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) Practice Exam

A FOID (Firearm Owner's Identification) card is valid for 10 years before it needs to be renewed. This card is issued by the Illinois State Police and is required for any Illinois resident who wants to legally own or possess firearms and ammunition. The other options, 5 years, 1 year, and 3 years, are not the correct validity periods for a FOID card. If your FOID card has expired, it is important to renew it as soon as possible to avoid any legal consequences.
