Forum / Move-Out & Eviction / How to evict a squatter in Illinois - 2018

I received a phone call from the Chicago Police Department that there are squatters occupying a vacant property that I own. How much notice are the squatters entitled to if they are illegal tenants? I don't know if I am legally obligated to give them 5/10/30 day notice. I reviewed the Chicago Tenant law and section 735 ILCS 9-104 says that I can demand immediate possession. Does that mean that I can file court eviction docs on the same day that I serve them the eviction notice?
