@bodhi24 --
Just a tip: to avoid possible headaches with Illinois, and since you don't intend to return there, I strongly advise that you obtain a new DL in your new home country. There have been cases reported in this forum where Illinois pursued former residents for taxes because the individual still had an active Illinois DL long after relocating to another state. Thus Illinois believed the person was still a resident of Illinois.
