What are the Illinois MCLE New Admit Requirements?

A newly admitted attorney?s first two-year reporting period for complying with MCLE requirements begins after the deadline for completing the Basic Skills Course. Specifically, for lawyers whose last names begin with a letter A through M, the first two-year reporting period begins on the next July 1 of an even-numbered year. For lawyers whose last names begin with a letter N through Z, the reporting period begins on the next July 1 of an odd-numbered year.

For example: an attorney who is admitted in May, 2008 must complete the Basic Skills Course requirement by May 31, 2009. If the attorney's last name begins A through M, the attorney's first two-year reporting period begins July 1, 2010 and ends June 30, 2012. If the attorney's last name begins N through Z, the attorney's first two-year reporting period begins July 1, 2009 and ends June 30, 2011.
