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.

(a) For purposes of this Section, "State gaming licensee" means, as applicable, an organization licensee or advance deposit wagering licensee licensed under the Illinois Horse Racing Act of 1975, an owners licensee licensed under the Illinois Gambling Act, or a licensee that operates, under any law of this State, one or more facilities or gaming locations at which lawful gambling is authorized and licensed as provided in the Illinois Gambling Act. (b) The Department may provide, by rule, for certification to any State gaming licensee of past due child support owed by a responsible relative under a support order entered by a court or administrative body of this or any other State on behalf of a resident or non-resident receiving child support services under this Article in accordance with the requirements of Title IV-D, Part D, of the Social Security Act. The State gaming licensee shall have the ability to withhold from winnings required to be reported to the Internal Revenue Service on Form W-2G, up to the full amount of winnings necessary to pay the winner's past due child support. The rule shall provide for notice to and an opportunity to be heard by each responsible relative affected and any final administrative decision rendered by the Department shall be reviewed only under and in accordance with the Administrative Review Law.

(e) A State gaming licensee who in good faith complies with the requirements of this Section shall not be liable to the gaming winner or any other individual or entity.
