Is fingerprinting required for applying for a FOID card?

Yes, for all applicants
No, it's not required
Yes, but only for individuals with previous convictions
Yes, but only for individuals under 21

The correct answer is: No, it's not required

The correct answer is option B. Fingerprints are not required for applying for a FOID card, regardless of an individual's age or previous convictions. This is because the process for obtaining a FOID card involves filling out a form and passing a background check, which does not require fingerprints. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they imply that fingerprinting is necessary, when it is not. It is important to carefully read and understand the requirements for obtaining a FOID card to ensure accurate information is provided.
