IL SB2934

Requires proof that both parties to a marriage have attained age 18 years to obtain a marriage license and certificate, eliminating previous allowances for marriages at age 16 or 17 with parental or judicial consent.

Repeals Section 208 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act regarding judicial approval procedures for underage marriages.

Removes the grounds for declaration of invalidity based on a party being aged 16 or 17 without required parental consent or judicial approval, making this no longer a valid basis to challenge a marriage.

Updates time of commencement provisions to reflect the elimination of underage marriage provisions, with declarations of invalidity now limited to paragraphs (1), (2), and (4) of Section 301.

Takes effect immediately upon becoming law, except changes to declaration of invalidity and time of commencement provisions, which take effect 2 years after enactment.
