Illinois State House District 35 issued the following announcement on Aug. 28.
Dear Neighbors:
I hope you all are doing well and are staying safe. My office has been receiving reports from constituents who have received Unemployment Benefit Bank Cards without applying for them. Please see the Attorney General's instructions below as to what you should do if this happens to you. Please also contact my office should you need any assistance.
"Attorney General Raoul is warning people who receive unsolicited debit cards in the mail that their personal or financial information may have been compromised. The AG is urging these individuals to contact the Illinois Department of Employment Security at 800-814-0513 to report receiving the unsolicited card and contact the Illinois Attorney General’s office if they need information to take steps to guard against identity theft. You are also encouraged to contact your local Police Department to file a claim."
Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White announced that the expiration date for valid driver’s licenses held by Illinois drivers who are 75 years of age or older has been extended for a period of one year past the licenses’ current 2020 expiration date. As a result, drivers age 75 and older with a 2020 driver’s license expiration date do not need to visit a facility to renew their driver’s license until shortly before their birthday in 2021.
White is reminding all other drivers that expiration dates for driver’s licenses/ID cards and license plate stickers have been extended until Nov. 1, 2020. As a result, expired documents will remain valid until Nov. 1 so customers under age 75 do not need to rush into Driver Services facilities, especially during hot weather.
