Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.

Sec. 27.
Returns by telecommunications retailer; extensions.
Except as
provided
hereinafter in this Section, on or before the 30th day of each
month each telecommunications retailer maintaining a place of business in this
State
shall make a return and payment of fees to the Department for the
preceding calendar month on a form prescribed and furnished by
the Department. The return shall be signed by the telecommunications retailer
under
penalties of perjury and shall contain the following information:
1. His or her name;
2. The address of his or her principal place of |
| business, or the address of the principal place of business (if that is a different address) from which he or she engages in the business of transmitting telecommunications;
|
|
3. The total amount of gross charges charged by him
|
| or her during the preceding calendar month for providing telecommunications during such calendar month;
|
|
4. The total amount received by him or her during the
|
| preceding calendar month on credit extended;
|
|
5. Deductions allowed by law;
6. Gross charges that were charged by him or her
|
| during the preceding calendar month and upon the basis of which the State infrastructure maintenance fee is imposed;
|
|
7. (Blank);
8. Amounts of fees due;
9. Such other reasonable information as the
|
|
If the telecommunications retailer's average monthly liability to the
Department does not exceed $100, the Department may authorize his
or her returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis, with the return
for January, February, and March of a given year being due by
April 15 of such year; with the return for April, May, and June of
a given year being due by July 15 of such year; with the return
for July, August, and September of a given year being due by
October 15 of such year; and with the return of October, November,
and December of a given year being due by January 15 of the
following year.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act concerning
the time within which a telecommunications retailer may file his or her return,
in the case
of any telecommunications retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
which
makes him or her responsible for filing returns under this Act, such
telecommunications retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
business.
In making such return, the telecommunications retailer shall determine the
value of any consideration other than money received by him or her and
he or she shall include such value in his or her return. Such determination
shall be subject to review and revision by the Department in the
manner hereinafter provided for the correction of returns.
If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
telecommunications retailer's liabilities under this Act, as shown on an
original
monthly return, the Department may
authorize the telecommunications retailer to credit such excess payment
against liability subsequently to be remitted to the Department
under this Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
subsequently determines that all or any part of the credit taken
was not actually due to the telecommunications retailer, the telecommunications
retailer's 2% discount
shall be reduced by 2% of the difference between the credit taken
and that actually due, and that telecommunications retailer shall be liable for
penalties and interest on such difference.
Any telecommunications retailer required to make payments under this Section
may make the payments by electronic funds transfer. The
Department shall adopt rules necessary to effectuate a program of
electronic funds transfer.
