A: It is likely that the unpaid ticket is impacting your driving privileges. You can speak to the Secretary of State's office to confirm the specific reason for your suspension and whether there are other issues that need to be addressed before the suspension is removed.

A: You need to contact the Illinois Secretary of State Office to find out what you need to do to clear your license. You need to make sure you ask the correct question. You need to ask what needs to be done to lift the suspension from your license. Failure to pay tickets prevents you from renewing your license, so make sure to be clear about what you are asking.
