Before you serve a Illinois notice
The official form offers five days or a longer period required by the lease or law. Count from service, not the date the form is prepared. Review local requirements, including Chicago and Cook County, before choosing the period.
Use the official instructions to determine how to serve the notice. After actual service, the person who served it should complete the separate Affidavit of Service of a Demand or Notice. Download the blank affidavit below; it is not a court summons.
Review, sign, and keep a copy
- Check every name, address, rent amount, and deadline against your records.
- Review federal, city/county, and lease requirements and attach any required notices.
- Sign the notice, serve it correctly, and keep a copy and proof of actual service.
- Wait the applicable period before taking further steps. Only a court process can authorize an eviction.

Frequently asked questions
What notice does this Illinois generator create?
Notice of Termination for Non-Payment of Rent. It is for nonpayment of rent, not lease violations or nonrenewals. Enter the unpaid rent currently due. This generator does not include late fees, costs, or other charges.
Is this an official court form?
The generator fills Illinois Supreme Court approved form E-TR 3505.2. It preserves the original notice wording and leaves signatures blank. The downloaded fields remain editable.
Does the generator calculate my deadline?
No. The official form offers five days or a longer period required by the lease or law. Count from service, not the date the form is prepared. Review local requirements, including Chicago and Cook County, before choosing the period.
What if the property has federal assistance or a federally backed mortgage?
This generator does not cover that situation. Federal programs and mortgage coverage can change notice requirements. Confirm coverage with the lender or housing provider and review the applicable official resources.
