All fees collected under this Act shall be paid into the Road Fund of the State treasury, except that the following amounts shall be paid into the General Revenue Fund: (i) 80% of the fee for an original, renewal, or duplicate Illinois Identification Card issued on or after January 1, 2005; and (ii) 80% of the fee for a corrected Illinois Identification Card issued on or after January 1, 2005.

Any disabled person making an application for a standard Illinois Identification Card for no fee must, along with the application, submit an affirmation by the applicant on a form to be provided by the Secretary of State, attesting that such person is a disabled person as defined in Section 4A of this Act.

An individual, who resides in a veterans home or veterans hospital operated by the state or federal government, who makes an application for an Illinois Identification Card to be issued at no fee, must submit, along with the application, an affirmation by the applicant on a form provided by the Secretary of State, that such person resides in a veterans home or veterans hospital operated by the state or federal government.

If an indigent military veteran makes a written request or application for an identification card and that veteran provides documentation certified by a County Veterans Assistance Commission verifying his or her status as an indigent veteran, then the indigent military veteran shall not be charged any fee for such request or application. The Secretary of State, in consultation with County Veterans Assistance Commissions, shall develop a form appropriate for the verification of a person's status as both a veteran and an indigent person and shall develop rules to implement the provisions of this Section.
