You have asked this a number of times. You will not receive a specific notice that your UE is ending in Illinois.
You have to go back through your award letters, see what you were awarded, what you have been paid, subtract the latter from the former, and that will tell you your balance.
Illinois is still participating in up to Tier IV of EUC (federal) as of today.
So what you have left depends on what Tier you are on, if any, and what you have been paid to date on that Tier.
Again, to answer your original question, no. Illinois will not send any specific letter telling you your benefits will end.
I'm on week 92. At week 16 I filed for SS. In Illinois they reduce your weekly payments to almost 1/2. Thats why it is soooo confusing to how much time I have left.
You must have received award letter, though, right? And the balance is declining or changing? You simply take that balance and subtract what UE has paid you, disregarding what SS has paid you.
When your UE runs out your SSI should increase to make up the difference, yes?
If you present at the IDES office they will be able to sit down with you and tell you exactly what you have left.
In Illinois this is week #90 coming up. Will I get a notice in the mail when it is about to run out? Or will it just stop without warning?
Thanks

Forget a second about the 90 weeks. Will I get a notice in the mail when my benefits are soon to end? Or will they all of a sudden end w/o a notice?

As for your direct question, if you are not eligible for any further assistance that is when they will contact you by mail that you have exhausted your unemployment benefits.
