Several factors can prevent you from obtaining a Firearm Owner's Identification (FOID) card, including felony convictions, mental health adjudications, substance abuse issues, and certain misdemeanor convictions related to violence or domestic violence. Additionally, providing false information on the application can also lead to denial. Background checks conducted by the Illinois State Police may reveal disqualifying factors that can halt the process. It's essential to be aware of these regulations to ensure eligibility.
