The law enforcement agency shall, within 3 days of the reporting in person by the person required to register under this Act, notify the Illinois State Police of the new place of residence, change in employment, or school. If any person required to register under this Act is granted a legal name change pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 21-101 of the Code of Civil Procedure, the person shall report, in person, within 5 days of receiving the legal name change order, the legal name change to the law enforcement agency with whom the person last registered.
