Illinois SOS Form DAH IH 84 Medical Verification – If you are seeking a Restricted Driving Permit (RDP) or reinstatement of driving privileges in Illinois after a suspension or revocation, you may need to document medical or treatment-related travel needs. The official form for this purpose is the Medical/Treatment Verification Form (DAH IH 84), issued by the Illinois Secretary of State Department of Administrative Hearings.
This guide explains what the form is, who needs it, how to complete it correctly, where to submit it, and how it fits into the broader process of restoring driving privileges in Illinois. All information is based on current official publications from the Illinois Secretary of State.
What Is the DAH IH 84 Medical/Treatment Verification Form?
Form DAH IH 84 is an official Illinois Secretary of State document used to verify that a petitioner (or a family member) requires regular medical appointments, counseling, or treatment. It also confirms whether the petitioner needs to fill prescriptions on a regular basis for themselves or a family member.
The form helps the Department of Administrative Hearings evaluate whether a Restricted Driving Permit should include authorization for travel to medical or treatment locations. It is one of several verification forms (alongside employment, education, and day-care forms) that support hardship driving requests.
The current version of the form is labeled “March 2026 — 1 — DAH IH 84.2 ADA” and is available as a fillable PDF.
Who Needs to Submit Form DAH IH 84?
You typically need this form if:
- You are petitioning for a Restricted Driving Permit and want authorization to drive to medical appointments, counseling sessions, or treatment facilities.
- You or a family member must attend regular medical or treatment meetings that require driving.
- It is medically necessary for you to fill prescriptions regularly for yourself or a family member.
This form is distinct from the Illinois Petitioner Treatment Verification (DAH H 68), which documents completion of substance-abuse treatment recommended after a DUI evaluation. DAH IH 84 focuses on ongoing medical or treatment travel needs rather than past treatment completion.
Always check the specific requirements listed in your Notice of Hearing or the official Alcohol- and Drug-Related Hearings page, as individual cases can vary.
