IMPORTANT UPDATES! 

IDFPR Licensing Software:  The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation announced the agency has reached an agreement to secure a new professional licensing system for individuals whose careers require a license to work in Illinois. The Department will invest $9 million over the next three years and partner with NIC Licensing Solutions, LLC to implement the new online system. 

IDFPR will immediately begin implementation of the new software, and all Departmental licensees will be transitioned to the new licensing system in six phases, ensuring every application and fee payment will be available online.  

According to the Department, the new licensing system will feature a user-friendly interface with improved communications and create a streamlined review of license applications and fees. Prospective licensees will be notified electronically when applications are received, reviewed, and licenses are issued by the Department.  Read more here.
