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.

        (g) such additional information as the Director may

    (2) Such application shall be made on forms prescribed and furnished by the Director and shall be executed by the company by its president or a vice-president or executive officer corresponding thereto, and verified by such officer, and if a corporation, the corporate seal shall be thereto affixed, attested by its secretary or other proper officer.
