Normal wear and tear in Illinois refers to the natural and gradual deterioration of the property that occurs from normal use over time. This includes minor scuffs on walls, carpet wear from walking, and faded paint. It does not cover extensive damage, like holes in the walls or stains on the carpet from spills.

It appears that landlords cannot bill you for damages after 30 days of vacancy. They cannot deduct damages from your security deposit if they do not send you an itemized and specific statement within 30 days of when you vacate the property. 765 ILCS 710/0.01 only affects deductions from the security deposit.
You can call 311 and file a complaint with the Chicago Dept. of Buildings...it's that easy. Just make sure to request a tracking number so you can call and light a fire under them if you don't get prompt action.
Starting January 1, 2025, Illinois will introduce the Landlord Retaliation Act, a new law designed to protect tenants from landlord retaliatory actions.
