SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) � All Illinois Secretary of State departments will not conduct in-person transactions including driver services from Jan. 3 through Jan. 17.

The agency announced the change Wednesday, citing an increase in COVID-19 cases statewide.

Secretary of State Jesse White is encouraging the public to visit for online services including renewing a license plate sticker, renewing a driver’s license or ID card and filing business services documents such as incorporations and annual reports.

White says all departments and driver services facilities will reopen on Tuesday, Jan. 18.
