Illinois Liquor Control Commission postpones due dates on renewals

Due to the hardships on liquor license holders as a result of the COVID-19 virus outbreak, all licenses expiring on March 31, 2020, April 30, 2020, and May 31, 2020 are extended until July 31, 2020. Unless otherwise directed, all license holders with March, April, and May expiration dates will be required to renew licenses no later than July 31, 2020. Late fees will not be accessed for license holders with a March 31, 2020, April 30, 2020 and May 31, 2020 expiration date as long as the license is renewed on or before July 31, 2020. License holders may not receive an additional notice to renew licenses by July 31, 2020. Notwithstanding the receipt or non-receipt of an additional renewal notice, all March, April and May license holders are required to renew licenses no later than July 31, 2020 license expiration. To avoid an administrative backlog, it is recommended that licenses be renewed through MyTax Illinois account as soon as possible. If licenses expire after July 31, 2020 due to administrative limitations, there will be no further extensions granted.
