E-Check Payment Processor Fee Waived Through August 2 at Sec of State’s Office

SPRINGFIELD – In an effort to encourage online transactions with the Secretary of State’s office at www.cyberdriveillinois.com, Secretary of State Jesse White and Treasurer Michael Frerichs will be waiving payment processor fee associated with e-checks through August 2, 2020. White and Frerichs partnered with National Cash Register (NCR) – the Treasurer’s approved payment processor company – to remove the e-check payment processing fee for three months for vehicle registrations, license or ID replacaements, and license renewals.
The State of Illinois extended expiration dates for at least 90 days after Driver Services facilities reopen for vehicle registrations, driver’s licenses and ID cards, but residents are encouraged to renew online. White also reminded the public that the federal government extended the REAL ID deadline by one year. The deadline is now October 1, 2021.
