Question by Jessica MMM: my son VOLUNTARILY admitted himself into rehab 3 years ago, does this exclude him from posessing a foid card?
he was 16 at the time, it was not court ordered and the firearms owner act is poorly worded they do not define “mental health facility” as a rehabilitation center and on the application says it’s a felony to falsely admit info. so what im wondering is since he was self mandated, received no physiciatric care while staying, and also was never banned by a professional that he is not able to obtain a FOID card. so does this mean he’s still eligible because he loves hunting and is looking toward getting a rifle.

i don’t think it makes any difference whether it was voluntary or not. he still went to rehab
if i were you, i would check with someone. there should be a contact number or something like that on the foid application form, or online if you google it. ring them and ask if that counts as a mental health facility

I’m pretty sure it’s okay. They intentionally make exception for the word voluntary so you don’t have to choose between necessary help and constitutional rights…
Sad really, that you need to worry about this.
But neither my answer nor the guy above me is qualified to answer. I think you need to ask someone more locally, and officially like the police, that way if the police it’s okay, get that in writing… If stuff goes south, you’ll have covered your bases.
Good luck.
