I had a traffic citation in Wisconsin and my drivers license is issued in Illinois. Will the points be added to my IL driver's license?

Wisconsin is not a member of the Drivers License Compact, which requires member states to exchange moving violation convictions, but has still decide to share ticket information with the home state of an out if state motorist cited in WI. So once you have been convicted of the moving violation you were ticketed for in the Wisconsin courts, the information will be sent to Illinois.

The drivers section of the IL Secretary of State site does not mention specifically that out of state tickets are put on your driving record. However the Illinois Administrative Code Motor Vehicle gives information on the Illinois offense table. Here it notes that all out-of-state convictions are to be considered and to be coded exactly as Illinois Vehicle Code violations with the exception of the first digit which shall be an “8.”

From the Illinois Administrative Motor Vehicle Code information listed above we gather that out of state moving violations will be added to your Illinois driving record and assigned points. To find out for certain if points will be added and if so how many, check with the IL Secretary of State Service for Motorist division.
