    Illinois Industrial Commission forms
    ISBA is pleased to make IIC forms available as downloadable Word and WordPerfect files as well as in .pdf (Adobe Acrobat) format. Our thanks to Sue Piha, IIC Manager of Research and Education, for her assistance.

    IIC rules permit you to use copies of all forms (except subpoenas) as long as they are exact duplicates in font, size of type, color of paper, etc. All copies must include the following statement, which can appear on the back: "This form is a true and exact copy of the current Industrial Commission form ICxx, as revised mm/yy."

    While we try to keep these forms up to date, we make no warranty or guarantee of their accuracy or reliability.
