Department  that  is returned to the Department unpaid by the
financial institution upon which it is drawn shall pay to the
Department, in addition to the amount  already  owed  to  the
Department,  a fine of $50. If the check or other payment was
for a renewal or  issuance  fee  and  that  person  practices
without  paying  the renewal fee or issuance fee and the fine
due, an additional fine of $100 shall be imposed.  The  fines
imposed  by  this  Section  are  in  addition  to  any  other
discipline provided under this Act for unlicensed practice or
practice on a nonrenewed license. The Department shall notify
the  person  that  payment of fees and fines shall be paid to
the Department by certified check or money  order  within  30
calendar  days  of the notification. If, after the expiration
of 30 days from the date of the notification, the person  has
failed  to  submit  the  necessary remittance, the Department
shall automatically terminate the license or  certificate  or
deny  the application, without hearing. If, after termination
or denial, the person seeks a license or certificate,  he  or
she shall apply to the Department for restoration or issuance
of  the license or certificate and pay all fees and fines due
to the Department. The Department may establish a fee for the
processing of an application for restoration of a license  or
certificate   to   pay   all   expenses  of  processing  this
application. The Director may waive the fines due under  this
Section in individual cases where the Director finds that the
fines would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome.

    Section  55.   The  Private  Detective,  Private   Alarm,
Private  Security,  and  Locksmith  Act of 1993 is amended by
changing Section 105 as follows:

    (225 ILCS 446/105)
    Sec. 105.  Issuance of license; renewal, fees.
    (a)  The   Department   shall,   upon   the   applicant's
satisfactory completion of the requirements authorized  under
this  Act,  and upon receipt of the requisite fees, issue the
appropriate license and wallet  card  showing  the  name  and
business  location  of the licensee and the dates of issuance
and expiration, and containing a photograph of  the  licensee
provided to the Department that is not more than one year old
as  of the date of application for licensure and reflects any
recent appearance changes.
    (b)  An applicant may  upon  satisfactory  completion  of
requirements  authorized  under this Act, and upon receipt of
requisite fees related to the  application  and  testing  for
licensure  under this Act, elect to defer the issuance of the
applicant's initial license for a period not  longer  than  6
years.   Any applicant who fails to request issuance of their
initial license or agency  certificate  and  remit  the  fees
associated with that license within 6 years shall be required
to  resubmit  an  applicant  for  licensure together with all
required fees.
    (c)  The expiration date, renewal period, and  conditions
for   renewal   and   restoration  of  each  license,  agency
certificate of registration, permanent employee  registration
card,  and  firearm  authorization card issued under this Act
shall be set by rule of the Department.  The holder may renew
the license, agency certificate  of  registration,  permanent
employee  registration  card,  or  firearm authorization card
during the month  preceding  its  expiration  by  paying  the
required  fee  and  by  meeting  those  conditions  that  the
Department  may specify.  Any license holder who notifies the
Department in writing, on forms prescribed by the Department,
may elect to place his or her license on an  inactive  status
for  a period of no longer than 6 years and shall, subject to
the rules of the  Department,  be  excused  from  payment  of
renewal  fees  until  he  or  she  notifies the Department in
writing of a desire to resume active status.  Practice  while
on   inactive  status  constitutes  unlicensed  practice.   A
nonrenewed license that has lapsed for less than 6 years  may
be  restored  upon  payment of a $50 restoration fee plus all
lapsed renewal fees.  A license that has lapsed for more than
6 years may be restored by paying the required fees specified
in this Section and by providing evidence  of  competence  to
resume practice satisfactory to the Department and the Board,
which  may  include  passage of the written examination.  All
restoration fees and lapsed renewal fees shall be waived  for
an applicant whose license lapsed while on active duty in the
military  provided application for restoration is made within
one year after discharge from the service.
    (d)  The Department shall provide by rule for a  schedule
of  fees  for the administration and enforcement of this Act,
including but not limited to original licensure, renewal, and
restoration.  The fees shall be nonrefundable.
    All fees collected under this Act shall be deposited into
the  General  Professions  Dedicated  Fund   and   shall   be

of this Act. The nonrefundable fees are as follows:

    period is $25.
