Are we still required to provide a “grace period notice” under the Illinois Mortgage Foreclosure Law? This requirement appears to have been repealed in 2016, but has any subsequent legislation reinstated this requirement?

No, the requirement to send a “grace period notice” for delinquent residential mortgage loans expired pursuant to a sunset provision on July 1, 2016, and it has not been reinstated.

For resources related to our guidance, please see:

  • Illinois Code of Civil Procedure, 735 ILCS 5/15-1502.5 (Illinois grace period notice requirement, with a sunset date of July 1, 2016.)
