-No, statute requiring tiers could not be found. But registrants are classified on their public registration page.+While there is no per se "tier" system, Those classified as SVP, Offenders against children, and Serious Sex Offenders are required to register every 90 days for life.

 + <font 14px/Arial, sans-serif;;initial;;#ffffff>No, not directly. IDOC generally classifies registrants based on their understanding of the law when they are released from IDOC. If they have served a prison term, otherwise classifications are generally made by registering officers per their understanding of the law.</font> 
 + <font 14px/Arial, sans-serif;;initial;;#ffffff>In 2012 (?) the definition of SVP "Sexually Violent Predator" was expanded from an evidence based designation  to an offense based designation. And the additional designations of "Offender Against Children" and "Serious Sex Offender" were introduced. Which impose additional registration requirements and frequency.</font>
