Illinois Code § 105. Reproduced from the official Illinois Compiled Statutes, with a citation summary, verification link, and related provisions.

§ 105.

Execution, filing, and recording of statements. (a) A statement may be filed in the office of the Secretary of State. A certified copy of a statement that is filed in an office in another State may be filed in the office of the Secretary of State. Either filing has the effect provided in this Act with respect to partnership property located in or transactions that occur in this State. (b) A certified copy of a statement that has been filed in the office of the Secretary of State and recorded in the office for recording transfers of real property has the effect provided for recorded statements in this Act. A recorded statement that is not a certified copy of a statement filed in the office of the Secretary of State does not have the effect provided for recorded statements in this Act. (c) A statement of qualification or foreign qualification filed by a partnership must be executed by at least 2 partners. Other statements must be executed by a partner or other person authorized by this Act. An individual who executes a statement as, or on behalf of, a partner or other person named as a partner in a statement shall personally declare under penalty of perjury that the contents of the statement are accurate. (d) A person authorized by this Act to file a statement may amend or cancel the statement by filing an amendment or cancellation that names the partnership, identifies the statement, and states the substance of the amendment or cancellation. (e) A person who files a statement pursuant to this Section shall promptly send a copy of the statement to every nonfiling partner and to any other person named as a partner in the statement. Failure to send a copy of a statement to a partner or other person does not limit the effectiveness of the statement as to a person not a partner. (f) The Secretary of State may collect a fee for filing or providing a certified copy of a statement as provided in Section 108. The officer responsible for recording transfers of real property may collect a fee for recording a statement. (Source: P.A. 97-839, eff. 7-20-12.)
