(210 ILCS 9/40)
Sec. 40. Probationary licenses. If the applicant has not been
previously licensed under this
Act or if the establishment is not in operation at the time the application is
made and if the Department determines that the applicant meets the licensure requirements of this Act, the Department
shall
issue a probationary license. A probationary license shall be valid for
120 days unless
sooner suspended or revoked. Within 30 days prior to the termination of a
probationary license,
the Department shall fully and completely review the establishment and, if the
establishment
meets the applicable requirements for licensure, shall issue a license, except that, during a statewide public health emergency, as defined in the Illinois Emergency Management Agency Act, the Department shall fully and completely review the establishment to the extent feasible. If the
Department finds
that the establishment does not meet the requirements for licensure but has
made substantial
progress toward meeting those requirements, the license may be renewed once for
a period not to
exceed 120 days from the expiration date of the initial probationary license.
