State Representative Patrick Windhorst (R-Metropolis) is reminding local professionals to renew their licenses with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation before the September 30, 2024 deadline. Windhorst emphasized that many licenses will expire on that date and urged residents to be proactive.

“I am urging local professionals to get to work to renew their professional licenses through IDFPR as soon as possible,” Windhorst said. “Several professions will be impacted by the September 30 expiration date. Getting your paperwork situated and sent in to IDFPR will help secure your license and ensure you can keep working to support your family.”

Windhorst highlighted that several professionals, including accountants, physical therapists, psychologists, and cosmetic and esthetician teachers, have licenses expiring on September 30, 2024. Individuals can find more information about the renewal process and obtain necessary paperwork by visiting the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation’s website at https://idfpr.illinois.gov/renewals/defaultssl.html.

“My office stands ready to assist with any questions or issues with professional licensing that 117th district residents may have,” Windhorst added. “My advice is to start sooner rather than later to ensure no interruptions in your professional license.”
