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.
(225 ILCS 20/7) (from Ch. 111, par. 6357)
(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2028)
Sec. 7. Applications for original license. Applications for original
licenses shall be made to the Department on forms or electronically as prescribed by the
Department and accompanied by the required fee which shall not be refundable.
All applications shall contain such information which, in the judgment of the
Department, will enable the Department to pass on the qualifications of
the applicant for a license as a licensed clinical social
worker or as a licensed social worker.
A license to practice shall not be denied an applicant because of the
applicant's race, religion, creed, national origin, political beliefs or
activities, age, sex, sexual orientation, or physical disability that does not affect a person's ability to practice with reasonable judgment, skill, or safety.
Applicants have 3 years from the date of application to complete the
application process. If the process has not been completed in 3 years, the
application shall be denied, the fee shall be forfeited, and the applicant must
reapply and meet the requirements in effect at the time of reapplication.
