Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

A contributing employee may elect to purchase creditable service for up to 24 months of active-duty military service, whether or not that service followed service as a county employee.

To establish this creditable service, the contributing employee must pay to the Fund, while in the service of the county, an amount determined by the Fund to represent (i) the employee contributions for the creditable service based on his or her rate of compensation on his or her last day as a contributor before the military service or on his or her first day as a contributor after the military service, whichever is greater, plus (ii) interest calculated at the effective rate from the date used to determine the rate of compensation for employee contributions under item (i) to the date of payment.(Source: P.A. 103-529, eff. 8-11-23; 104-284, eff. 1-1-26.) |
