The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) has successfully completed Phase 2 of its transition to the new online licensing platform, CORE (Comprehensive Online Regulatory Environment).

As part of this phase, 25 more license types are now available for licensure through CORE, making the total number of license types 95. Many of these licenses were previously only available through paper applications, which often led to delays in processing.

State Senator Dave Syverson says the updated platform is part of a broader effort to modernize state services and reduce red tape. First-time applicants are encouraged to use the system to simplify the licensing process.
