Clearing a DUI Related Out-of-State Hold on Your Driver’s License
A DUI conviction can have long-lasting consequences, especially if it results in a hold or revocation on your driver’s license from another state. This hold can prevent you from renewing or obtaining a license in your current state, creating significant challenges for daily activities like commuting or running errands.
Losing your driver’s license can feel like a major setback, whether it’s due to a suspension or revocation. In Illinois, the process to regain your driving privileges often involves a hearing with the Illinois Secretary of State. For many drivers, this means attending an *informal hearing*—a less structured but still critical step toward reinstatement.
