Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.
(305 ILCS 5/11-18) (from Ch. 23, par. 11-18)
Sec. 11-18.
Duty
to report changes in circumstances.
It is the duty of every applicant and recipient to notify promptly the
county department or the supervisor of general assistance, as the case may
be, of any change of status with respect to his property, or need, or
family composition, amount of income, money contributions and other
support, from whatever source, occurring, in the case of an applicant,
between the time of his filing an application for financial aid and the
issuance of the grant, and, in the case of a recipient, occurring at any
time during the period that he receives financial aid.
If an applicant or recipient fails to give prompt notice of changes in
his circumstances, and as a result financial aid is given to which he is
not entitled, he shall be liable to the county department or to the local
governmental unit, as the case may be, for refunding a sum of money up to
but not in excess of the entire amount of financial aid provided. Unless
the refund is made the amount may be recovered in a civil action.
