(305 ILCS 5/10-14.1)
Sec. 10-14.1.
Relief from administrative orders.
Notwithstanding the
30-day appeal period provided in Sections 10-12 and 10-12.1 and the limitation
on review of final administrative decisions contained in Section 10-14, a
responsible relative or a person receiving child support
enforcement services
under this Article who is aggrieved by an administrative order entered under
Section 10-11 or 10-11.1 or an administrative determination of paternity
entered under Section 10-17.7 and who did not petition within the 30-day appeal
period may petition the Illinois Department for relief from the administrative
order or determination on the same grounds as are provided for relief from
judgments
under Section 2-1401 of the Code of Civil Procedure. The petition must be
filed not later than 2 years after the entry of the order or determination by
the Illinois Department. The day immediately subsequent to the mailing of the
order or determination shall be considered as the first day and the day the
petition is received by the Illinois Department shall be considered as the last
day in computing the 2-year period. Any
period during which the person seeking relief is under a legal disability or
duress or during which the grounds for relief are fraudulently concealed shall
be
excluded in computing the period of 2 years.
Upon receiving a petition within the 2-year period, the Illinois Department
shall provide for a hearing to be held on the petition.
