Special situation
Correct a title record in Illinois
Use this path when the Illinois title has the wrong owner, lien, VIN, or other material detail that must be corrected before you rely on it.
What to gather first
- current title or title record information
- supporting documents that prove the correction
- payment when Illinois requires a corrected-title filing fee
Likely next steps
- Identify the exact title error and gather the documents that prove the correction before filing anything with Illinois.
- Use the corrected-title workflow rather than relying on a normal transfer or renewal to fix the record.
- Do not transfer or renew against a title record that still contains a material error.
