28 Section 10. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by
29 changing Sections 6-106 and 6-117 as follows:
-2- LRB9212608DHgc
1 (625 ILCS 5/6-106) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 6-106)
2 Sec. 6-106. Application for license or instruction
3 permit.
4 (a) Every application for any permit or license
5 authorized to be issued under this Act shall be made upon a
6 form furnished by the Secretary of State. Every application
7 shall be accompanied by the proper fee and payment of such
8 fee shall entitle the applicant to not more than 3 attempts
9 to pass the examination within a period of 1 year after the
10 date of application.
11 (b) Every application shall state the name, social
12 security number, zip code, date of birth, sex, and residence
13 address of the applicant; briefly describe the applicant;
14 state whether the applicant has theretofore been licensed as
15 a driver, and, if so, when and by what state or country, and
16 whether any such license has ever been cancelled, suspended,
17 revoked or refused, and, if so, the date and reason for such
18 cancellation, suspension, revocation or refusal; shall
19 include an affirmation by the applicant that all information
20 set forth is true and correct; and shall bear the applicant's
21 signature. The application form may also require the
22 statement of such additional relevant information as the
23 Secretary of State shall deem necessary to determine the
24 applicant's competency and eligibility. The Secretary of
25 State may in his discretion substitute a federal tax number
26 in lieu of a social security number, or he may instead assign
27 an additional distinctive number in lieu thereof, where an
28 applicant is prohibited by bona fide religious convictions
29 from applying or is exempt from applying for a social
30 security number. The Secretary of State shall, however,
31 determine which religious orders or sects have such bona fide
32 religious convictions. The Secretary of State may, in his
33 discretion, by rule or regulation, provide that an
34 application for a drivers license or permit may include a
-3- LRB9212608DHgc
1 suitable photograph of the applicant in the form prescribed
2 by the Secretary, and he may further provide that each
3 drivers license shall include a photograph of the driver. The
4 Secretary of State may utilize a photograph process or system
5 most suitable to deter alteration or improper reproduction of
6 a drivers license and to prevent substitution of another
7 photo thereon. The Secretary must provide by rule that an
8 applicant may be voluntarily fingerprinted and that an
9 application may include a legible print of a thumb or
10 forefinger of the applicant. The Secretary must also provide
11 by rule that a driver's license must provide a space for a
12 fingerprint or thumbprint of the applicant.
13 (c) The application form shall include a notice to the
14 applicant of the registration obligations of sex offenders
15 under the Sex Offender Registration Act. The notice shall be
16 provided in a form and manner prescribed by the Secretary of
17 State. For purposes of this subsection (c), "sex offender"
18 has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 2 of the Sex
19 Offender Registration Act.
20 (d) Any male United States citizen or immigrant who
21 applies for any permit or license authorized to be issued
22 under this Act or for a renewal of any permit or license, and
23 who is at least 18 years of age but less than 26 years of
24 age, must be registered in compliance with the requirements
25 of the federal Military Selective Service Act. The Secretary
26 of State must forward in an electronic format the necessary
27 personal information regarding the applicants identified in
28 this subsection (d) to the Selective Service System. The
29 applicant's signature on the application serves as an
30 indication that the applicant either has already registered
31 with the Selective Service System or that he is authorizing
32 the Secretary to forward to the Selective Service System the
33 necessary information for registration. The Secretary must
34 notify the applicant at the time of application that his
-4- LRB9212608DHgc
1 signature constitutes consent to registration with the
2 Selective Service System, if he is not already registered.

10 Secretary of State shall indicate the action taken with
11 respect to such applications.
12 (b) The Secretary of State shall maintain appropriate
13 records of all licenses and permits refused, cancelled,
14 revoked or suspended and of the revocation and suspension of
15 driving privileges of persons not licensed under this
16 Chapter, and such records shall note the reasons for such
17 action.
18 (c) The Secretary of State shall maintain appropriate
19 records of convictions reported under this Chapter. Records
20 of conviction may be maintained in a computer processible
21 medium.

27 or rehabilitative program, as required by the Secretary of

30 courts, and the affected driver or, upon proper verification,
31 such affected driver's attorney.
