Any committee meetings on Comptroller’s Office delays in paying fall checks for College Illinois?
Students are waiting.

Actually, he has it backwards.

@anonymous 9:42am From The College Illinois website: Will there be any impact on College Illinois! benefit payments as a result of the fact that Illinois has not yet enacted a final Fiscal Year 2016 budget?
No. The current state budget impasse is not expected to impact College Illinois!® services or benefits. Tuition, mandatory fees and other payments will continue to be made to higher education institutions on behalf of College Illinois! prepaid tuition program beneficiaries (students). College Illinois! funds are held separate from other funds, and by law, can only be used for paying College Illinois! benefits on behalf of contract holders and for the costs of running the program.

Lawyer, that much is known but tell that to students waiting for payments. Phone calls to Comptroller’s office have been made and told they are in process. Long delays already.

Representative Kay is concerned about “word salad” in the Illinois House. Seems to be more about hand jive

Wow…listening to the debate. Sandack: obstinance in the face of reality….wow.
Could say the same thing about labor poison pills. Just stop it already.

@anonymous 11:34am Hello from the College Illinois!® 529 Prepaid Tuition Plan. College Illinois! pays benefits after the school submits an invoice—which, for some schools, doesn’t happen until after the term starts. The Program has been paying fall term benefits since late July without delay, and we haven’t received any calls or emails about payment concerns. But if your experience is different, we definitely want to know about it! Please feel free to call us at 877-877-3724 or email at ISAC.529help@isac.illinois.gov so we can help address any concerns with the process.
