Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

40 ILCS 5/15-153.3

(40 ILCS 5/15-153.3) (from Ch. 108 1/2, par. 15-153.3)

Sec. 15-153.3.

Automatic increase in disability benefit.

Each disability
benefit payable under Section 15-150 and calculated under Section 15-153 or
15-153.2 that has not yet received an initial increase under this Section
shall be increased by 0.25% of the monthly disability benefit multiplied by
the number of full months that have elapsed since the benefit began on January 1, 2002 or
the January 1 next following the
granting of the benefit, whichever occurs later.

On each January 1 following the initial increase under this
Section, the disability benefit shall be increased by 3% of the current
amount of the benefit, including prior increases under this Article.

The changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act of the 92nd
General Assembly apply without regard to whether the benefit recipient
was in service on or after the effective date of this amendatory Act.
