Illinois Subcontractor's Final Waiver and Release of Mechanic's Lien
Under 770 ILCS 60, Illinois' Mechanic's Lien act, lien waivers are used between a contractor (including a sub or general) and a property owner to induce or encourage final or partial payments in exchange for forfeiting the claimant's right to a mechanic's lien.
Use the Final Lien Waiver after the confirmed final payment on an outstanding mechanic's lien. A subcontractor signs this form and provides to the owner and/or prime contractor in exchange for final payment on the job.

Could have had Clerk's certification of mailing form after it is recorded. Not fatal, but I did have to resort to reading the statute as well.
Thank you!
