Unless a case has been filed in IL regarding the support or custody of the children, you can move. If a case has been filed, then you can not move without court permission.

Move quickly before husband files a case here, otherwise you'll be stuck. OTOH, if he isn't here and doesn't intend to fight a divorce and you are not in a hurry, you can file here and probably default him.
