Other Criminal Procedure Illinois FOID Card with record

[MikeRalston]

Hi, I am currently wanting a Illinois FOID card. Right now I am 20 years old. When I 17 I was arrested for Battery and criminal destruction of property. I never saw a court room or anything. I was brought to a behavioral center imediatly after arrest. After about a week I was released. I went there the peer jury at my local station and did community service and that was it. The detective says its on my juvenile record. I havent had a problem getting jobs so far. So now that I am all straighted out I want my FOID card. I know it asks if you were ever convicted of a crime as a juvenile. Do I have to answer yes? I havent expunged my record yet. If I apply for my FOID card what are the chances of getting approved/denied?

Your question should be directed to the ISP.

We can only advise you to obey the law, tell the truth.

Perhaps the ISP can offer you clearer instructions.

Otherwise, consult an IL attorney or agency that helps people apply.
