License Reinstatement Services

Applying for license reinstatement is NOT an easy process and should not be taken lightly, no matter if the Petitioner is attending a formal or informal hearing. There is a lot of information to be aware of before a Petitioner applies for license reinstatement to determine if he or she is ready.
To begin, the Petitioner should:
- Have a clear driving record other than the revocation sanction
- Have no cases pending in court
- Undergo an alcohol/drug evaluation if an alcohol/drug problem is indicated (proof of treatment must be submitted)
- Complete an alcohol/drug remedial education program (not required for High Risk classification levels)
- Even if the evaluation does not recommend treatment, the driver is still REQUIRED to complete a remedial education program
- Appear before a Secretary of State hearing officer
- For a first offense, an informal hearing may be conducted by visiting a hearing officer at one of the regional Driver Services facilities
- Multiple offenders must make a request in writing, pay a $50 nonrefundable filing fee, and attend a formal hearing in Chicago, Springfield, Mt. Vernon, or Joliet
