SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White announced Tuesday his office’s reopening plan – beginning June 1 – with the first two months focused on serving only new drivers, customers with expired driver’s licenses/ID cards and vehicle transactions.
Starting June 2, all driver services facilities statewide outside the Chicago metro area will open. Hours of operation are Tuesday 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Wednesday through Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 7:30 a.m. to noon. For the first two months through July 31, these facilities will only serve:
- New drivers (most will be 16-year-old driver applicants)
- Customers with expired driver’s licenses and ID cards
- Vehicle transactions
The Secretary of State’s office has extended expiration dates by at least 90 days after the governor’s June 1 disaster proclamation executive order ends.
For other services, more information is available here.
