    (c) The registration for any person required to register
under this Article shall be as follows:
        (1) Any person registered under the Habitual Child Sex
    Offender Registration Act or the Child Sex Offender
    Registration Act prior to January 1, 1996, shall be deemed
    initially registered as of January 1, 1996; however, this
    shall not be construed to extend the duration of
    registration set forth in Section 7.
        (2) Except as provided in subsection (c)(4), any person
    convicted or adjudicated prior to January 1, 1996, whose
    liability for registration under Section 7 has not expired,

    justice entity of his or her responsibility to register.
    Upon notification the person must then register within 3
    days of notification of his or her requirement to register.
    If notification is not made within the offender's 10 year
    registration requirement, and the Department of State
    Police determines no evidence exists or indicates the
    offender attempted to avoid registration, the offender
    will no longer be required to register under this Act.
        (3) Except as provided in subsection (c)(4), any person
    convicted on or after January 1, 1996, shall register in
    person within 3 days after the entry of the sentencing

        (5) The person shall provide positive identification
    and documentation that substantiates proof of residence at
    the registering address.
        (6) The person shall pay a $20 initial registration fee
    and a $10 annual renewal fee. The fees shall be used by the
    registering agency for official purposes. The agency shall
    establish procedures to document receipt and use of the
    funds. The law enforcement agency having jurisdiction may
    waive the registration fee if it determines that the person
    is indigent and unable to pay the registration fee. Ten
    dollars for the initial registration fee and $5 of the
    annual renewal fee shall be used by the registering agency
    for official purposes. Ten dollars of the initial
    registration fee and $5 of the annual fee shall be
    deposited into the Sex Offender Management Board Fund under
    Section 19 of the Sex Offender Management Board Act. Money
    deposited into the Sex Offender Management Board Fund shall
    be administered by the Sex Offender Management Board and
    shall be used to fund practices endorsed or required by the
    Sex Offender Management Board Act including but not limited
    to sex offenders evaluation, treatment, or monitoring
    programs that are or may be developed, as well as for
    administrative costs, including staff, incurred by the
    Board.
