What happens if a FOID card is revoked?

The individual can appeal the decision within 30 days
The card holder must surrender the FOID card to local law enforcement
The individual immediately loses the right to purchase ammunition
The card becomes invalid after 60 days

The correct answer is: The card holder must surrender the FOID card to local law enforcement

Surrendering the FOID card to local law enforcement is indeed a necessary step when a FOID card is revoked. This process ensures that the individual is following legal protocols after their ability to possess firearms and ammunition has been officially rescinded. This measure helps maintain public safety and ensures that individuals who no longer have the legal right to own firearms do not continue to have access to them. While there are other procedures following a revocation, the immediate requirement to surrender the card to law enforcement is key to ensuring compliance with the law and mitigating potential risks associated with uncontrolled firearm access.
