IL Tax Scholarship Application Will NOT Relaunch This Week. Check here for more information. www.empowerillinois.org

APPLICATION SUSPENDED - Check www.empowerillinois.org for future updates. A message from them at 4pm "Unfortunately, we do not yet have an update on when the student application will relaunch. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused students and families. We knew the demand for quality educational options was strong, but no one estimated the overwhelming statewide demand we saw today. Parents get one chance at a quality education and thousands took every opportunity to make sure their kids were first in line. More than 24,000 families visited the application site within the first few minutes of its availability causing a technology failure. We will continue to do our best to ensure fairness while maintaining compliance with the regulations imposed by the state."

Empower Illinois Application Process has been Suspended for the moment. Another update after 4pm.

Please be patient. Empower Illinois is experiencing delays due to the high number of applicants. They are working as quickly as possible to resolve this. #InvestInKidsIL #TaxCreditScholarships
