    (c) The registration for any person required to register

        (1) Any person registered under the Habitual Child Sex 
    Offender
Registration Act or the Child Sex Offender 
    Registration Act prior to January
1, 1996, shall be deemed 
    initially registered as of January 1, 1996; however,
this 
    shall not be construed to extend the duration of 
    registration set forth
in Section 7.

        (2) Except as provided in subsection (c)(4), any person 
    convicted or
adjudicated prior to January 1, 1996, whose

    responsibility to register shall be notified by a
criminal 
    justice entity of his or her responsibility to register.  
    Upon
notification the person must then register within 3 
    days of notification of
his or her requirement to register.  
    If notification is not made within the
offender's 10 year 
    registration requirement, and the Department of State

    Police determines no evidence exists or indicates the 
    offender attempted to
avoid registration, the offender 
    will no longer be required to register under
this Act.

        (3) Except as provided in subsection (c)(4), any person 
    convicted on
or after January 1, 1996, shall register in

        (4) Any person unable to comply with the registration 
    requirements of

    January 1, 1996, shall register in person
within 3 days of 
    discharge, parole or release.

        (5) The person shall provide positive identification 
    and documentation
that substantiates proof of residence at 
    the registering address.

        (6) The person shall pay a $20
 initial registration fee 
    and
a $10
 annual
renewal fee.  The fees shall be used by the 
    registering agency for official
purposes.  The agency shall 
    establish procedures to document receipt and use
of the 
    funds.
The law enforcement agency having jurisdiction may 
    waive the registration fee
if it determines that the person 
    is indigent and unable to pay the registration
fee.
Ten 
    dollars for the initial registration fee and $5 of the 
    annual renewal fee
shall be used by the registering agency 
    for official purposes. Ten dollars of

    deposited into
the Sex Offender Management Board Fund under 
    Section 19 of the Sex Offender
Management Board Act. Money 
    deposited into the Sex Offender Management Board
Fund shall 
    be administered by the Sex Offender Management Board and 
    shall be
used to
fund practices endorsed or required by the 
    Sex Offender Management Board Act
including but not limited 
    to sex offenders evaluation, treatment, or
monitoring 
    programs that are or may be developed, as well as for

    administrative costs, including staff, incurred by the 
    Board.

    (d) Within 3 days after obtaining or changing employment 
and, if employed
on January 1, 2000, within 5 days after that 
date, a person required to

report, in person to the law
enforcement agency having 
jurisdiction, the business name and address where he
or she is 
employed.  If the person has multiple businesses or work 
locations,
every business and work location must be reported to 
the law enforcement agency
having jurisdiction.
