AN ACT to amend the Illinois Public Aid Code by adding
Section 10-26.5.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Illinois Public Aid Code is amended by
adding Section 10-26.5 as follows:
(305 ILCS 5/10-26.5 new)
Sec. 10-26.5. Delayed payment from State Disbursement
Unit.
(a) In this Section, "adversely affected recipient of
support" means a person who meets all of the following
criteria:
(1) The person is entitled to disbursement of a
child support payment from the State Disbursement Unit.
(2) The person either (i) does not receive from the
State Disbursement Unit a disbursement of a child support
payment to which he or she is entitled or (ii) receives a
delayed disbursement of a child support payment from the
State Disbursement Unit.
(3) As a result of the nonreceipt of the
disbursement of the child support payment or the delayed
disbursement of the child support payment, the person
receives an adverse rating by a credit reporting agency
based, for example, on the person's inability to make a
timely payment of an amount owed to another person.
(b) Upon the request of an adversely affected recipient
of support, the Illinois Department shall send a letter to
the recipient verifying the delayed or undisbursed child
support payment. The recipient may submit that letter to the
appropriate credit reporting agency for placement in the
recipient's credit file.
(c) The Illinois Department shall adopt rules necessary
to implement this Section.
Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon
becoming law.
