I have a revoked license in Illinois. I am moving to Texas for business. I need to know if the revocation in Illinois keeps me from the privaledge of attaining a license in Texas or if it really doesn't stand up.

I don't since why not since you haven't violated any Texas State Laws, but you can call the TX DMV and ask to be sure. I don't see the answer to that on their website, so your best bet is to call.

If the revocation in Illinois is for an offense that would get you revoked or suspended in Texas, you can be pretty certain they will NOT give you a license until after you have cleared up your Illinois license.
