 3        Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
 4    represented in the General Assembly:

 5        Section  5.  The  Illinois  Vehicle  Code  is  amended by
 6    changing Sections 3-405 and 3-416 as follows:

 9        (a)  Every owner of a  vehicle  subject  to  registration
10    under  this  Code  shall make application to the Secretary of
11    State  for  the  registration  of  such  vehicle   upon   the
12    appropriate  form  or forms furnished by the Secretary. Every
13    such application  shall  bear  the  signature  of  the  owner
14    written with pen and ink and contain:
15             1.  The   name,   bona  fide  residence  (except  as
16        otherwise provided in this paragraph 1) and mail  address
17        of  the owner or business address of the owner if a firm,
18        association or corporation.  If the mailing address is  a
19        post  office box number, the address listed on the driver
20        license record may be used to verify residence. A  police
21        officer,  a  deputy  sheriff,  an  elected sheriff, a law
22        enforcement officer for the Department of  State  Police,
23        or  a  fire investigator may elect to furnish the address
24        of the headquarters of the governmental entity or  police
25        district  where  he  or  she  works instead of his or her
26        residence address, in which case that  address  shall  be
27        deemed  to  be  his  or  her  residence  address  for all
28        purposes under this Chapter 3. In this paragraph  1:  (A)
29        "police  officer" has the meaning ascribed to "policeman"
30        in Section 10-3-1 of the  Illinois  Municipal  Code;  (B)
31        "deputy  sheriff"  means a deputy sheriff appointed under

 8        certificate  of  title,  determined  under  such standard
 9        rating as may be prescribed by the Secretary.
10             3.  Information,  as  may   be   required   by   the
11        Secretary,  relating  to the insurance policy for a motor
12        vehicle, including, but not limited to, the name  of  the
13        insurer which issued the policy.
14             4.  Such  further  information  as may reasonably be
15        required by the Secretary  to  enable  him  to  determine
16        whether  the vehicle is lawfully entitled to registration
17        and the owner entitled to a certificate of title.
18             5.  An  affirmation  by  the  applicant   that   all
19        information  set  forth  is  true  and  correct.  If  the
20        application  is  for the registration of a motor vehicle,
21        the applicant also shall affirm that the motor vehicle is
22        insured as required by this  Code,  that  such  insurance
23        will  be  maintained  throughout the period for which the
24        motor vehicle shall be registered, and that  neither  the
25        owner,  nor  any  person operating the motor vehicle with
26        the owner's permission, shall operate the  motor  vehicle
27        unless  the  required  insurance  is  in  effect.  If the
28        person signing the affirmation is not the sole  owner  of
29        the vehicle, such person shall be deemed to have affirmed
30        on  behalf  of  all  the  owners  of the vehicle.  If the
31        person signing the affirmation is not  an  owner  of  the
32        vehicle,  such person shall be deemed to have affirmed on
33        behalf of the owner or owners of the vehicle. The lack of
34        signature on the application  shall  not  in  any  manner

 4    purchased from a dealer the application shall be  accompanied
 5    by  a Manufacturer's Statement of Origin from the dealer, and
 6    a statement showing any lien retained by the dealer.
