How can a revoked FOID card be reinstated?

By paying a fee
After a waiting period of five years
Appealing to the Director of the Illinois State Police
FOID cards cannot be reinstated once revoked

The correct answer is: Appealing to the Director of the Illinois State Police

A revoked FOID card can be reinstated by appealing to the Director of the Illinois State Police. This process involves submitting a formal appeal explaining the reasons for requesting reinstatement and providing any relevant supporting documentation. The Director of the Illinois State Police will review the appeal and make a decision based on the merit of the case. This option is correct because it shows that there is a possible avenue for individuals to have their revoked FOID cards reinstated under certain circumstances. Options A and B are incorrect because simply paying a fee or waiting for a specific period of time does not guarantee the reinstatement of a revoked FOID card. Option D is also incorrect as it states that FOID cards cannot be reinstated once revoked, which is not accurate as the appeal process to the Director of the Illinois State Police does exist for this purpose.
