Illinois HB4093 allows candidates to verify residency and use "Residency Verified" instead of their address on nomination papers.
HB4093 amends the Illinois Election Code to introduce a Residency Verification Certificate process. Candidates can apply for this certificate from the appropriate election authority 180 days before the petition filing deadline. Once verified, candidates can state "Residency Verified" instead of their address on nomination papers and in circulator's affidavits. The bill also modifies the Freedom of Information Act to exempt applications and documentation submitted for residency verification from disclosure.
