Reader’s Question:

Can I get an insurance in Illinois if I have a license in Canada?

Kim

Thank you for asking Kim.

You may be able to get an insurance policy with your Canadian license but most insurance companies would require you to get a driver’s license in the US, in your case from Illinois, within a certain period of time for the insurance policy to remain in force of effect. Almost all our Illinois insurance providers will require you have a current valid license to get insurance.

To get more information on how to get an Illinois State license, you may check with the IL Department of Motor Vehicle. According to the IL DMV, drivers going to Illinois may be able to use their valid driver’s license from their home state or country for 90 days.

You may get an Illinois driver’s license or identification card only if you are going to become a legal resident of Illinois. You may be able to use your valid driver’s license to drive in Illinois throughout your stay if you have one from another state or country . The international driver’s license (IDP) is not recognized by the state of Illinois.

Goodluck!
