The correct answer is: Yes, a nominal fee

When applying for a FOID (Firearm Owner's Identification) card in Illinois, there is indeed a nominal fee that must be paid at the time of application. This fee supports the processing of the application and maintaining the system used to handle FOID card requests. Understanding that there is a fee is important for budgeting and ensuring that applicants are prepared to complete the application process. While some might think there could be different rules for renewals or special considerations based on age, the uniform fee structure for applications highlights how the process is standardized for all new applicants, ensuring everyone pays the same nominal fee irrespective of their situation. This reinforces the importance of being well-informed about all aspects of the application process, including associated costs.
