June 4, 2020 – Driver Services facilities statewide are open to serve ONLY new drivers, customers with expired driver’s licenses/ID cards and vehicle transactions. Even with these limited services, the Secretary of States’s office says to expect a wait.
Currently, there are more than 700,000 expired driver’s licenses/ID cards and 1.9 million expired vehicle registrations. Secretary White asked those who must visit facilities to be patient due to heavy volume.
White also reminded customers that his office extended expiration dates for driver’s licenses/ID cards and vehicle registration stickers until Oct. 1, 2020. This extension also covers those who have June and July expiration dates. As a result, expired documents will remain valid until Oct. 1st so customers do not need to rush into a facility.
White noted that because facilities are expecting heavy customer volume if you can conduct business online, you are strongly encouraged to do so. You can go to www.cyberdriveillinois.com to take advantage of many online services:
· renewing a vehicle registration;
· obtaining a duplicate driver’s license or ID card;
· obtaining a driving record abstract;
· renewing a driver’s license through the Safe Driver Renewal program. For all other services, please refer to the various departments listed on www.cyberdriveillinois.com.
