2) One or more of the following conditions exist:
A) Any part of the individual's services are performed in
Illinois; or
B) The individual has his or her residence in Illinois;

election as provided in this Subpart; and

approve if the requirements of Section 2714.305(a) are met):
1) If the agency approves the election, it shall forward a copy
of that approval to the agency of each participating jurisdiction specified on
the election, under whose unemployment insurance law the individual or
individuals in question might, in the absence of the election, be covered. Each
interested agency shall approve or disapprove the election as promptly as
practicable and shall notify the agency of the elected jurisdiction
accordingly.
2) If its law so requires, an interested agency may, before

if approved by its agency and by one or more interested agencies. An election
thus approved shall take effect, as to any interested agency, only if it has
been approved by that agency.
e) If an election is approved only in part, or is disapproved by
some agencies, the electing employing unit may withdraw its election within 10
days after being notified of that action.
