Alexi Giannoulias was elected state treasurer in 2006. He is the main authority behind the new “e-pay” project. E-pay is a payment program that allows you to pay bills from your home, any day of the week and at any time of the day. The system has proven to be safe and secure for the assets of everybody involved in the process. The Illinois state treasure office is the one responsible for providing the service to more than 450 local governments inside the state of Illinois. The website allows you to check if your region is part of the e-pay program. The site, besides from all of the e-pay information, allows you to take a look at other programs where the state treasury office is involved. You can get in contact with any of the members of the treasury office, by phone or by fax. The list with that data is posted in the website.
