Treasury Direct will not allow me to enter an Illinois State ID no. with an expiration date of 99-99-99

By Terry Savage on May 04, 2022 | Wild Card

My mother-in-law has an Illinois State ID with an expiration date of 99-99-99. TreasuryDirect.com would not accept this date (or any variation which she tried). We finally skipped the State ID info and proceeded to complete the rest of the page. However, after submitting, the account became locked. She needs to submit Form 5444 (Account Authorization). What are the Illinois seniors with state IDs supposed to enter for the expiration date?
