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.
(225 ILCS 75/11) (from Ch. 111, par. 3711)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2029)
Sec. 11. Expiration and renewal; restoration; military service. (a) The expiration date and renewal period for each certificate
issued under this Act shall be set by rule.
(b) Any occupational therapist or occupational therapy assistant who has
permitted the license to expire or who has had the license on inactive
status may have the license restored by making application to the
Department, by filing proof acceptable to the Department of the licensee's fitness to
have the license restored, by paying the required fee, and by showing proof of compliance with any continuing education requirements. Proof of fitness may include sworn evidence certifying to active
practice in another jurisdiction.
If the occupational therapist or occupational therapy assistant has not
maintained an active practice in another jurisdiction satisfactory to the
Department, the Department shall determine, by an evaluation program
established by rule, the licensee's fitness to resume active status and shall establish procedures and requirements for restoration.
(c) However, any occupational therapist or occupational therapy assistant whose
license expired while the licensee was (1) in Federal Service on
active duty with
the Armed Forces of the United States, or the State Militia called into
service or training, or (2) in training or education under the supervision
of the United States preliminary to induction into the military service,
may have the licensee's license renewed or restored without paying any lapsed renewal
fees if within 2 years after honorable termination of such service, training or education
except under conditions other than honorable, the licensee furnishes the Department
with satisfactory evidence to the effect that the licensee has been so engaged and
that the licensee's service, training, or education has been so terminated.
