Modifies the definitions of "remittance agent" and "remitter" to include persons who give and receive money for the payment of registration plates, vehicle certificates of title, taxes, or registration fees (rather than the payment of vehicle taxes, license or registration fees). Provides that an application for a salvage certificate shall be submitted to the Secretary of State when any licensed rebuilder, repairer, new or used vehicle dealer, or remittance agent has applied for title to a vehicle that he or she knows or should have known to have sustained damages in excess of 33 1/3% of the vehicle's fair market value. Provides that an application for a remittance agent license must be accompanied by other information the Secretary may require and by a statement that the applicant has not committed in the past 3 years any violation as determined in any civil, criminal, or administrative proceedings under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or under portions of the Illinois Vehicle Code concerning title and registration requirements.
