License plate renewal notices are no longer being mailed by the Illinois Secretary of State due to the budget impasse. If you need to renew your plate sticker, don't wait until the last minute and end up with a ticket.
Make sure to get your sticker well before the end of the month. The Office of the Secretary of State anticipates resuming mailing out renewal notices once budgetary issues are resolved.
You can renew online or by mail.
