Illinois College Savings Bonds were issued by the State of Illinois to provide individuals with a long-term investment option often used to fund college expenses.
When college savings bonds come due, investors have three options for collecting their money. Investors can mail their bond directly to the paying agent listed below, or present the bond in person at the office of the paying agent or Illinois State Treasurer in Springfield.
