Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
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.

        2. "Lien Registry" means the public database
    
maintained by the Department of Revenue as provided by the State Tax Lien Registration Act.
    B. A notice of lien filed by the Director in the Lien Registry shall include:
        1. the name and last known address of the debtor;
        2. the name and address of the Department;
        3. the lien number assigned to the lien by the
    
Department;
        4. the basis for the lien, including, but not limited
    
to, the amount of contribution, interest, and penalty due and unpaid as of the date of filing in the Lien Registry; and
        5. the county or counties where the real property of
    
the debtor to which the lien will attach is located.
    C. When a notice of lien is filed by the Director in the Lien Registry, the lien is perfected and shall be attached to all existing and after-acquired: (1) personal property of the debtor, both tangible and intangible, that is located in any and all counties within the State of Illinois; and (2) real property of the debtor located in the county or counties as specified in the notice of lien.
