In Illinois, if you receive a conviction for driving under the influence your license may be revoked for up to 10 years, or even life, depending upon the number of prior DUI convictions. Once a driver’s license is revoked for a DUI, there is no automatic reinstatement. In order to have driver’s license reinstated you must apply for an administrative hearing before the Illinois Secretary of State.
