Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

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 60/12

(225 ILCS 60/12) (from Ch. 111, par. 4400-12)

(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)

Sec. 12.

All examinations provided for by this Act
shall be conducted under rules prescribed from time to time
by the Department.  Examinations shall be held not less
frequently than 2 times every year, at times and places
prescribed by the Department, of which applicants shall be
notified by the Department in writing, and may be conducted
wholly or in part in writing.

If an applicant neglects, fails without an approved
excuse or refuses to take the next available examination
offered for license under this Act, the fee paid by the
applicant shall be forfeited and the application denied.  If
an applicant fails to pass an examination for a license
under this Act within 3 years after filing their
application, the application shall be denied.  However, such
applicant may thereafter make a new application for
examination, accompanied by the required fee and satisfy the
requirements then in existence for a license.
