SPRINGFIELD – Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White on Wednesday announced that expiration dates for driver’s licenses and ID cards have been extended an additional three months until Feb. 1, 2021.
“Extending expiration dates until February 1 means people with an expired driver’s license and ID card do not need to visit a Driver Services facility immediately,” said White. “During this pandemic, we continue to think creatively to serve the public as efficiently as possible, while making public health and safety our top priority.”
License plates stickers remain extended until Nov. 1, 2020, as they can easily be renewed online, according to White.
White continues to urge the public to consider using online services when possible instead of visiting a facility due to heavy customer volume. Customers who can conduct business online may go to www.cyberdriveillinois.com.
The secretary of state’s office said that online transactions continue to rise, with an increase of 84 percent in online license plate sticker renewals when compared to the same period in 2019.
