Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

An affidavit that no action at law for damages arising
out of the motor vehicle crash has been filed against the applicant,
or if filed that it is not still pending shall be prima facie evidence
of that fact. The Secretary of State may take whatever steps are necessary
to verify the statement set forth in the applicant's affidavit.
(b) The driver's license or registration and nonresident's operating
privileges suspended as provided in Section 7-205 shall also remain suspended
and shall not be renewed nor shall any license or registration be issued to the

the future as provided in Section 1-164.5. The proof is to be
maintained by the
person in a manner satisfactory to the Secretary of State for a period of 3
years after the date the proof is first filed.
