To avoid congestion at your local DMV facility during the COVID Pandemic, Jesse White, the Illinois Secretary of State, has announced that drivers license and permit expiration dates will be extended until June 1st. I am told that this will include Restricted Driving Permits (RDPs).
Also, according to their website:
Additionally, White stressed that many transactions can be conducted online at http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com instead of waiting at a Driver Services facility. Some of these services include:
•Renewing a license plate sticker;•Renewing a valid driver’s license for qualifying drivers;
•Renewing a valid ID card for those age 22-64 (seniors 65 and older have free, non-expiring IDs);
•Obtaining a driver record abstract;
•Filing Business Services documents, such as incorporations and annual reports; and
•Customers with issues involving administrative hearings may contact adminhearings@ilsos.gov.
In an effort to reduce facility visits for in-person service, White has expanded online renewals for driver’s licenses and ID cards. Not everyone qualifies, particularly those who are required to pass a written or road test. For qualifying drivers, individuals will receive a letter with a unique PIN approximately 90 days before the expiration date. The PIN is required to renew online.
