Adult Probation FAQ
How often do I have to report to a PO?
This varies depending upon risk assessment scoring. Following initial intake appointments, probationers will be scheduled to report to probation office appointments based upon scoring of an AOIC-approved risk/needs assessment. Other compliance considerations or ordered conditions may result in more frequent reporting requirements.
What should I bring to my probation appointment?
Probationers should always bring a photo ID and proof of address to their initial probation appointments. Proof of completion of other terms of probation should be provided to the Probation Officer.
How do I transfer to another Illinois jurisdiction (Intrastate transfer)?
Instanter transfer: If at the time of sentencing a defendant has verified residency in an Illinois county other than that in which he/she is sentenced, supervision will be transferred to and accepted by the county of residency as allowed by Administrative Office of Illinois Courts (AOIC) rules. Non-instanter transfer: If a defendant wishes to move to another jurisdiction during their term of probation, they are not permitted to relocate residency without prior approval of the Kane County probation department. Several conditions must first be met prior to authorization of transfer of supervision.
How do I transfer to another state (Interstate transfer)?
Instanter transfer: If at the time of sentencing a defendant had verified residency in another state at the time of offense, supervision will be transferred to that state as allowed by Interstate Commission for Adult Offender Supervision (ICAOS) rules. Other supervision plan conditions may allow for instanter transfers if the probationer has resident family and a means of support in the receiving state. Non-instanter transfer: If a defendant wishes to move to another state during their term of probation, the probationer may apply for transfer if they are found to be eligible under ICAOS rules. Eligibility for transfer under ICAOS rules does not guarantee that the receiving state will accept the probation transfer. ICAOS rules carry the full weight and effect of Federal Law and supercede any contradictory court-ordered language. Note: A $125 fee is required to apply for interstate transfer of probation supervision. The fee is applied to an extradition fund for mandatory retaking of defendants when nationwide, no-bond warrants are issued. Applicants are required to sign an extradition waiver with their application for Interstate transfer. ICAOS rules specify various circumstances in which mandatory retaking of defendants must occur. In such circumstances a nationwide, no bond warrant must be issued Kane County.
