Step-by-step explanation:

According to the PROFESSIONS, OCCUPATIONS, AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS 225 ILCS 454/20-90, it is stated that "No action for a judgment that subsequently results in a post-judgment order for collection from the Real Estate Recovery Fund shall be started later than 2 years after the date on which the aggrieved person knew, or through the use of reasonable diligence should have known, of the acts or omissions giving rise to a right of recovery from the Real Estate Recovery Fund."
