Step Three: File your Request for Review

I finished writing my Request for Review. How do I file it?

You can file your Request for Review in one of the following ways:

 

    • Email the Request for Review to HRC.News@illinois.gov. Your Request for Review is considered “filed” with the Commission on the date it was emailed.

 

        Save your Request for Review as a PDF file. This means that you will need to put all your evidence or supporting materials into one PDF file. The Commission cannot accept any other document types by email (for example, .doc, .docx, .txt, .jpeg, or .png).

 

    • Mail a paper copy of your Request for Review to:

 

        Illinois Human Rights Commission
        Michael A. Bilandic Building
        160 N. LaSalle Street, Suite N-1000
        Chicago, IL 60601

 

    Your Request for Review is considered “filed” with the Commission on the postmark date. Do not wait until the deadline to mail your Request for Review.

 

    • Personally deliver your Request for Review to:

 

        Illinois Human Rights Commission
        Michael A. Bilandic Building
        160 N. LaSalle Street, Suite N-1000
        Chicago, IL 60601

 

    You must go from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. You cannot go on a State holiday.

 

    • Fax your Request for Review to (312) 814-6517. Your Request for Review is considered “filed” with the Commission on the date it was faxed.

Is there a fee to file a Request for Review?

No, there are no fees or charges to file a Request for Review with the Commission.
