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 447/10-25)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2029)
Sec. 10-25. Issuance of license; renewal; fees.
(a) The Department shall, upon the applicant's satisfactory completion of
the requirements set forth in this Act and upon receipt of the fee, issue the
license indicating the name and business location of the licensee and the date
of expiration.
(b) An applicant may, upon satisfactory completion of the requirements set
forth in this Act and upon receipt of fees related to the application and
testing for licensure, elect to defer the issuance of the applicant's initial
license for a period not longer than 3 years. An applicant who fails to request
issuance of his or her initial license or agency license and to remit the fees
required for that license within 3 years shall be required to resubmit an
application together with all required fees.
(c) The expiration date, renewal period, and conditions for renewal and
restoration of each license, permanent employee registration card, canine handler authorization card, canine trainer authorization card, and firearm
control
card shall be set by rule. The holder may renew the license,
permanent employee registration card, canine handler authorization card, canine trainer authorization card, or firearm control card during the
30 days preceding its expiration by paying the required fee and by meeting
conditions that the Department may specify. Any license holder who notifies the
Department on forms prescribed by
the Department may place his or her license on inactive status for a period of
not longer than 3 years and shall, subject to the rules of the Department, be
excused from payment of renewal fees until the license holder notifies the
Department, in writing, of an intention to resume active status. Practice while
on inactive status constitutes unlicensed practice. A non-renewed license
that has lapsed for less than 3 years may be restored upon payment of the
restoration fee and all lapsed renewal fees. A license that has lapsed for more
than 3 years may be restored by paying the required restoration fee and all
lapsed renewal fees and by providing evidence of competence to resume practice
satisfactory to the Department and the Board, which may include passing a
written examination. All restoration fees and lapsed renewal fees shall be
waived for an applicant whose license lapsed while on active duty in the armed
forces of the United States if application for restoration is made within 12
months after discharge from the service.
Any person seeking renewal or restoration under this subsection (c) shall be subject to the continuing education requirements established pursuant to Section 10-27 of this Act.
(d) Any permanent employee registration card expired for less than one year
may be restored upon payment of lapsed renewal fees. Any permanent employee
registration card expired for one year or more may be restored by making
application to the Department and filing proof acceptable to the Department of
the licensee's fitness to have the permanent employee registration card
restored, including verification of
fingerprint processing through the Illinois State Police and Federal
Bureau of Investigation and paying the restoration fee.
