7Illinois sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
8functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales by
9the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of property of
10like kind and character in Illinois.

11    Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,
12and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency
13of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect
14the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the

14the same property.
15    Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
16conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
17wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
18extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
19filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor
20vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required

10imposed by this Act on aviation fuel sold at retail in this
11State during the preceding calendar month shall, instead of
12reporting and paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise required
13by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate aviation
14fuel tax return. The requirements related to the return shall
15be as otherwise provided in this Section. Notwithstanding any
16other provisions of this Act to the contrary, retailers

20taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such
21taxpayer's reporting status. The Department shall change such
22taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds that such change is
23seasonal in nature and not likely to be long term. If any such
24quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the
25amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be
26liable for penalties and interest on the difference between the

 

 

HB4234- 17 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1minimum amount due and the amount of such quarter monthly
2payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the
3taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to the
4Department in excess of the minimum payments previously due as
5provided in this Section. The Department shall make reasonable
6rules and regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment
7amount and quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file
8on other than a calendar monthly basis.
9    If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
10the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
11Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
12Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
13the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
14no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
15memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
16in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
17taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
18similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax
19Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
20in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
21prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
22payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
23after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
24unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,
25the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
26liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the

 

 

HB4234- 18 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
2the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
3accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
4the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
5all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
6taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
7be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
8credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
9liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
10    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
11return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
12the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
13authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
14with the return for January, February, and March of a given
15year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
16April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such
17year; with the return for July, August and September of a given
18year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return
19for October, November and December of a given year being due by
20January 20 of the following year.
21    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or
22quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
23liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the Department
24may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with
25the return for a given year being due by January 20 of the
26following year.

 

 

HB4234- 19 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1    Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
2substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
3returns.
4    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
5the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
6case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
7which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
8such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
9Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
10business.
11    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
12aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
13an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this
14Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal
15property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be
16prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return
17for each such item of tangible personal property which the
18retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a
19retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers
20transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
21trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
22trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer
23of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
24more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
25to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as
26provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may

 

 

HB4234- 20 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor
2vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the
3Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
4return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means a
5Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section
63-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal
7watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
8    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
9aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
10an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the
11business of leasing or renting such items and who, in
12connection with such business, sells any such item to a
13retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any
14other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to
15meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting the
16transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or
17trailers transferred for resale during a month to the
18Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
19return form on or before the 20th of the month following the
20month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any
21other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed
22under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the
23manner and form as required by the Department.
24    The transaction reporting return in the case of motor
25vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with an
26agency of this State, shall be the same document as the Uniform

 

 

HB4234- 21 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle
2Code and must show the name and address of the seller; the name
3and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling price
4including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
5property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the
6traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to
7which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
8of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
9trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
10tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
11amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
12such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
13due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
14fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
15identification of the property sold; such other information as
16is required in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and
17such other information as the Department may reasonably
18require.
19    The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
20and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
21name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
22price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
23traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
24for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
25extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for
26the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after

 

 

HB4234- 22 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
2the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
3transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
4the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that
5such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
6claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a
7sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
8information as the Department may reasonably require.
9    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
10than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
11being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
12than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
13return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
14that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
15Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
16officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
17titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
18if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
19that this procedure will expedite the processing of
20applications for title or registration.
21    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
22shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
23satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
24the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
25Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
26(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied

 

 

HB4234- 23 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
2may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
3whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
4that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
5support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
6certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
7tangible personal property.
8    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
9Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
10retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
11evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
12is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
13paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
14Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
15mandate of this paragraph.
16    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
17wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
18tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
19retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
20paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
21of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
22being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
23the information required by the transaction reporting return
24and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
25the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
26determination, in which event the transaction reporting return

 

 

HB4234- 24 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
2credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
3with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
4provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
5the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
6same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
7if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
8    Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
9selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
10the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
11property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
12the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
13purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When filing
14his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
15purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax so
16refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax which
17such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
18Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax
19to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
20such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
21amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
22deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
23purchaser.
24    Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also
25include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
26covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible

 

 

HB4234- 25 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
2but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
3from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
4remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
5return.
6    If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
7Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
8return which will enable retailers, who are required to file
9returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
10Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
11Acts on the one form.
12    Where the retailer has more than one business registered
13with the Department under separate registration under this Act,
14such retailer may not file each return that is due as a single
15return covering all such registered businesses, but shall file
16separate returns for each such registered business.
17    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
18pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special
19fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, the net
20revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax
21imposed under this Act.
22    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
23pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the

8personal property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail
9from a retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency
10of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold on or
11after December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel only
12applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49
13U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State.
14    For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each
15month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program
16Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month
17from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation
18fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be required
19for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation fuel
20under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the
21Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only
22pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the
23Aviation Fuels Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long
24as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49

4September 1, 2010, each month the Department shall pay into the
5State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the net revenue
6realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the
7selling price of sales tax holiday items.
8    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
9pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue
10realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on
11the selling price of tangible personal property which is
12purchased outside Illinois at retail from a retailer and which
13is titled or registered by an agency of this State's
14government.
15    Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall
16pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to
17an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the
18net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of

20been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that
21are now taxed at 6.25%.

9may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required
10to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3
11of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax

7result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund
8pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of
9the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual
10Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided,
11that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under
12this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the

1transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise required
2to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or
3quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall be required
4to file returns on an annual basis.
5    The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor
6vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with an
7agency of this State, shall be the same document as the Uniform
8Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle
9Code and must show the name and address of the seller; the name
10and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling price
11including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
12property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the
13traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to
14which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
15of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
16trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
17tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
18amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
19such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
20due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
21fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
22identification of the property sold; such other information as
23is required in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and
24such other information as the Department may reasonably
25require.
26    The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft

 

 

HB4234- 117 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
2name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
3price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
4traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
5for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
6extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for
7the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
8deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
9the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
10transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
11the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that
12such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
13claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a
14sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
15information as the Department may reasonably require.
16    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
17than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
18being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
19than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
20return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
21Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
22the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
23tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
24titling or registration is required) if the Department and such
25agency or State officer determine that this procedure will
26expedite the processing of applications for title or

 

 

HB4234- 118 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1registration.
2    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
3shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
4satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
5the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
6Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
7receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
8satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
9purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State officer
10with whom, he must title or register the tangible personal
11property that is involved (if titling or registration is
12required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
13Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or registration
14to such tangible personal property.
15    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
16Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
17retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
18evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
19is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
20paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
21Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
22mandate of this paragraph.
23    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
24wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
25the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
26retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not

 

 

HB4234- 119 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
2of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
3being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
4the information required by the transaction reporting return
5and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
6the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
7determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
8and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
9credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
10with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
11provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
12the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
13same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
14if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
15    Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
16period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
17returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
18subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
19may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
20receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
21return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
22with respect to such receipts.
23    Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
24behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
25vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
26accredited agent of such corporation.

 

 

HB4234- 120 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1    Where the seller is a limited liability company, the return
2filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall be
3signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent of
4the limited liability company.
5    Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing the
6return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
7return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
8Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
9on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
10whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
11retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
12preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
13data to the Department on request. The discount under this
14Section is not allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on
15aviation fuel that is subject to the revenue use requirements
16of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. Any prepayment made
17pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the
18amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the
19case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction
20by transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such
21discount shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead
22of when such retailer files his periodic return. The discount
23allowed under this Section is allowed only for returns that are
24filed in the manner required by this Act. The Department may
25disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of
26registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but

 

 

HB4234- 121 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
2registration has become final.
3    Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
4tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
5Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
6Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
7remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was $10,000
8or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he
9shall file a return with the Department each month by the 20th
10day of the month next following the month during which such tax
11liability is incurred and shall make payments to the Department
12on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month
13during which such liability is incurred. On and after October
141, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the
15Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service
16Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, excluding any
17liability for prepaid sales tax to be remitted in accordance
18with Section 2d of this Act, was $20,000 or more during the
19preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
20with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
21next following the month during which such tax liability is
22incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
23the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
24liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
25liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
26payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's

 

 

HB4234- 122 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
2Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
3of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
4calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
5the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
6month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
7after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1, 1987, each
8payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
9actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
10liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
11the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
12or after January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each
13payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
14actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
15liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
16the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
17or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
18begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
19amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
20the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
21calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
22such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
231989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
24amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
25the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
26calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's

 

 

HB4234- 123 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
2amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
3against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
4that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
5requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
6Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability
7of $10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
8shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
9to the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
10quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
11month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
12taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
13computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
14calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
15taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
16the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
17to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
18reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000
19threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
20Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. On
21and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
22the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
23taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 or
24more as determined in the manner provided above shall continue
25until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the
26Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters

 

 

HB4234- 124 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
2lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
3average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
4each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
5quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can
6show the Department that a substantial change in the taxpayer's
7business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate
8that his average monthly tax liability for the reasonably
9foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated
10above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department for a
11change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The Department
12shall change such taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds
13that such change is seasonal in nature and not likely to be
14long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at
15the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the
16taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the
17difference between the minimum amount due as a payment and the
18amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and timely
19paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
20payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
21minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
22The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
23govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
24payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
25monthly basis.
26    The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,

 

 

HB4234- 125 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

12001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
2quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
3is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
4prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
5excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
6calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
7required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
8Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
9month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
10during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to
11September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221),
12each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
13taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
14during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
15January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
1622.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5%
17of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
18preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax
19liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each
20payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
21actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
22liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year.
23The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
24against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
25that month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case
26may be. Once applicable, the requirement of the making of

 

 

HB4234- 126 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1quarter monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this
2paragraph shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly
3prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2 complete
4calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter
5monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
6required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
7interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has
8previously made payments for that month in excess of the
9minimum payments previously due.
10    The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October
111, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
12make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
13who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
14prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that average in
15excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete
16calendar quarters shall file a return with the Department as
17required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
18Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
19month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
20shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
21liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
22the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of
23the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
24final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
25filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
26Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter

 

 

HB4234- 127 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
2shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
3collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
4(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
5lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
6average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
7each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
8quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly
9payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
10taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
11difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
12payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
13previously due.
14    If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
15taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
16Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
17shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
18requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
19memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
20credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
21the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
22Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
23in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
24prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
25taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
26subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,

 

 

HB4234- 128 -LRB101 15567 HLH 64912 b

1the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
2Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
3regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
4subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
5taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
6and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
7of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
8due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
9interest on such difference.
10    If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
11Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
12to the Department under this Act for the month which the
13taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
14taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
15    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall

17State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue
18realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax imposed under
