|
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
|
represented in the General Assembly:
|
Section 5. The Illinois Identification Card Act is amended |
by changing Section 5 as follows:
|
(15 ILCS 335/5) (from Ch. 124, par. 25)
|
Sec. 5. Applications. |
(a) Any natural person who is a resident of the
State of |
Illinois may file an application for an identification card, or |
for
the renewal thereof, in a manner prescribed by the |
Secretary. Each original application
shall be completed by the |
applicant in full and shall set forth the legal
name,
residence |
address and zip code, social security number, birth date, sex |
and
a brief
description of the applicant. The applicant shall |
be photographed, unless the Secretary of State has provided by |
rule for the issuance of identification cards without |
photographs and the applicant is deemed eligible for an |
identification card without a photograph under the terms and |
conditions imposed by the Secretary of State, and he
or she |
shall also submit any other information as the Secretary may |
deem necessary
or such documentation as the Secretary may |
require to determine the
identity of the applicant. In addition |
to the residence address, the Secretary may allow the applicant |
|
to provide a mailing address. If the applicant is a judicial |
officer as defined in Section 1-10 of the Judicial Privacy Act |
or a peace officer, the applicant may elect to have his or her |
office or work address in lieu of the applicant's residence or |
mailing address. An applicant for an Illinois Person with a |
Disability Identification Card must
also submit with each |
original or renewal application, on forms prescribed
by the |
Secretary, such documentation as the Secretary may require,
|
establishing that the applicant is a "person with a disability" |
as defined in
Section 4A of this Act, and setting forth the |
applicant's type and class of
disability as set forth in |
Section 4A of this Act.
For the purposes of this subsection |
(a), "peace officer" means any person who by virtue of his or |
her office or public employment is vested by law with a duty to |
maintain public order or to make arrests for a violation of any |
penal statute of this State, whether that duty extends to all |
violations or is limited to specific violations.
|
(b) Beginning on or before July 1, 2015, for each original |
or renewal identification card application under this Act, the |
Secretary shall inquire as to whether the applicant is a |
veteran for purposes of issuing an identification card with a |
veteran designation under subsection (c-5) of Section 4 of this |
Act. The acceptable forms of proof shall include, but are not |
limited to, Department of Defense form DD-214 or an |
identification card issued under the federal Veterans |
Identification Card Act of 2015. If the document cannot be |
|
stamped, the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs shall |
provide a certificate to the veteran to provide to the |
Secretary of State. The Illinois Department of Veterans' |
Affairs shall advise the Secretary as to what other forms of |
proof of a person's status as a veteran are acceptable. |
The Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs shall confirm |
the status of the applicant as an honorably discharged veteran |
before the Secretary may issue the identification card. |
For purposes of this subsection (b): |
"Armed forces" means any of the Armed Forces of the United |
States, including a member of any reserve component or National |
Guard unit. |
"Veteran" means a person who has served in the armed forces |
and was discharged or separated under honorable conditions. |
(c) All applicants for REAL ID compliant standard Illinois |
Identification Cards and Illinois Person with a Disability |
Identification Cards shall provide proof of lawful status in |

Applicants who are unable to provide the Secretary with proof |
of lawful status are ineligible for REAL ID compliant |
identification cards under this Act. |

|
Section 10. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by |
changing Section 6-106 as follows:
|
|
(625 ILCS 5/6-106) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 6-106)
|
Sec. 6-106. Application for license or instruction permit.
|
(a) Every application for any permit or license authorized |
to be issued
under this Code shall be made upon a form |
furnished by the Secretary of
State. Every application shall be |
accompanied by the proper fee and payment
of such fee shall |
entitle the applicant to not more than 3 attempts to pass
the |
examination within a period of one year after the date of |
application.
|
(b) Every application shall state the legal name, social |
security
number, zip
code, date of birth, sex, and residence |
address of the applicant; briefly
describe the applicant; state |
whether the applicant has theretofore been
licensed as a |
driver, and, if so, when and by what state or country, and
|
whether any such license has ever been cancelled, suspended, |
revoked or
refused, and, if so, the date and reason for such |
cancellation, suspension,
revocation or refusal; shall include |
an affirmation by the applicant that
all information set forth |
is true and correct; and shall bear the
applicant's signature. |
In addition to the residence address, the Secretary may allow |
the applicant to provide a mailing address. In the case of an |
applicant who is a judicial officer or peace officer, the |
Secretary may allow the applicant to provide an office or work |
address in lieu of a residence or mailing address. The |
application form may
also require the statement of such |
|
additional relevant information as the
Secretary of State shall |
deem necessary to determine the applicant's
competency and |
eligibility. The Secretary of State may, in his
discretion, by |
rule or regulation, provide that an application for a
drivers |
license or permit may include a suitable photograph of the
|
applicant in the
form prescribed by the Secretary, and he may |
further provide that each
drivers license shall include a |
photograph of the driver. The Secretary of
State may utilize a |
photograph process or system most suitable to deter
alteration |
or improper reproduction of a drivers license and to prevent
|
substitution of another photo thereon.
For the purposes of this |
subsection (b), "peace officer" means any person who by virtue |
of his or her office or public employment is vested by law with |
a duty to maintain public order or to make arrests for a |
violation of any penal statute of this State, whether that duty |
extends to all violations or is limited to specific violations.
|
(b-5) Every applicant for a REAL ID compliant driver's |
license or permit shall provide proof of lawful status in the |
United States as defined in 6 CFR 37.3, as amended. Applicants |
who are unable to provide the Secretary with proof of lawful |
status may apply for a driver's license or permit under Section |
6-105.1 of this Code. |
(c) The application form shall include a notice to the |
applicant of the
registration obligations of sex offenders |
under the Sex Offender Registration
Act. The notice shall be |
provided in a form and manner prescribed by the
Secretary of |
|
State. For purposes of this subsection (c), "sex offender" has
|
the meaning ascribed to it in Section 2 of the Sex Offender |
Registration Act.
|
(d) Any male United States citizen or immigrant who applies |
for any
permit or
license authorized to be issued under this |
Code or for a renewal of any permit
or
license,
and who is at |
least 18 years of age but less than 26 years of age, must be
|
registered in compliance with the requirements of the federal |
Military
Selective
Service Act.
The Secretary of State must |
forward in an electronic format the necessary
personal |
information regarding the applicants identified in this |
subsection (d)
to
the Selective Service System. The applicant's |
signature on the application
serves
as an indication that the |
applicant either has already registered with the
Selective
|
Service System or that he is authorizing the Secretary to |
forward to the
Selective
Service System the necessary |
information for registration. The Secretary must
notify the |
applicant at the time of application that his signature |
constitutes
consent to registration with the Selective Service |
System, if he is not already
registered.
|
(e) Beginning on or before July 1, 2015, for each original |
or renewal driver's license application under this Code, the |
Secretary shall inquire as to whether the applicant is a |
veteran for purposes of issuing a driver's license with a |
veteran designation under subsection (e-5) of Section 6-110 of |
this Code. The acceptable forms of proof shall include, but are |
|
not limited to, Department of Defense form DD-214 or an |
identification card issued under the federal Veterans |
Identification Card Act of 2015. If the document cannot be |
stamped, the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs shall |
provide a certificate to the veteran to provide to the |
Secretary of State. The Illinois Department of Veterans' |
Affairs shall advise the Secretary as to what other forms of |
proof of a person's status as a veteran are acceptable. |
The Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs shall confirm |
the status of the applicant as an honorably discharged veteran |
before the Secretary may issue the driver's license. |
For purposes of this subsection (e): |
"Armed forces" means any of the Armed Forces of the United |
States, including a member of any reserve component or National |
Guard unit. |
"Veteran" means a person who has served in the armed forces |
and was discharged or separated under honorable conditions. |
