Illinois § 60

§ 60.

Issuance of license; renewal. (a) The Office 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 certificate or wallet card, as applicable, showing the name and business location of the licensee, and the dates of issuance and expiration. For an employee license, the wallet card shall also contain a photograph of the licensee, unless the licensee has a religious exemption in accordance with Section 40. (b) (Blank). (c) An applicant for license renewal shall, at the time of renewal application, provide proof of qualifications for licensure under Section 40 for the respective license to the Office. Upon receipt of the requisite fees, the Office shall issue the license in accordance with subsection (a). The expiration date and renewal period for each license issued under this Act shall be set by rule. Failure to renew by the expiration date shall lapse the license. A lapsed license may not be renewed until a written application is filed, an applicant has demonstrated proof of qualifications for licensure, and the renewal fee is paid. If not renewed, a license shall become inactive following 60 days after the expiration date of the license. An inactive license may not be reinstated until a written application is filed, an applicant has demonstrated proof of qualifications for licensure, the renewal fee is paid, and the reinstatement fee is paid. A license may not be reinstated after one year from the expiration date of the license. Renewal and reinstatement fees shall be waived for persons who did not renew while on active duty in the military and who file for renewal or reinstatement within one year after discharge from such service. (d) As a condition of renewal of a license, the State Fire Marshal may require the licensee to report information pertaining to the licensee's practice which the State Fire Marshal determines to be in the interest of public safety. (e) All fees paid under this Act are non-refundable. This shall not preclude the State Fire Marshal from refunding accidental overpayment of fees. (Source: P.A. 102-715, eff. 4-29-22.)
