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.

740 ILCS 170/4.2

(740 ILCS 170/4.2) (from Ch. 48, par. 39.4b)

Sec. 4.2.

If the employee has not served a Revocation Notice Form as provided in Section 4.1 of this Act or has not otherwise served the creditor with a written notice of  revocation (if the wage assignment is revocable under federal law) as provided in this Act
within 20 days after receiving the notice of intention to make a demand,
the creditor may proceed with his demand, and the employer shall commence
payment to the creditor not sooner than 5 business days after service of
such demand, if no revocation notice has been received by the employer. If the employee cures the default stated in the demand or revokes the wage assignment, the
creditor shall notify the employer and release the demand. No employer
shall be liable for payments made in compliance with this Section.

If a Revocation Notice Form as set forth in Section 4.1 of this Act or other written notice of revocation from the employee is received by an employer, no wages are subject to a demand served by the
creditor for that wage assignment and the employer shall cease any deduction of wages currently taking place for that wage assignment, unless the employer receives
a copy of a subsequent written agreement between the creditor and employee
authorizing such payments. If such an agreement is not reached, the
creditor may not institute further proceedings on the wage assignment.
