SB2105- 9 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1reinsurance do not include premiums from inter-affiliate
2reinsurance arrangements), beginning with taxable years ending
3on or after December 31, 1999, the sum of the rates of tax
4imposed by subsections (b) and (d) shall be reduced (but not
5increased) to the rate at which the total amount of tax imposed
6under this Act, net of all credits allowed under this Act,
7shall equal (i) the total amount of tax that would be imposed
8on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
9the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
10domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes
11and taxes measured by net income imposed by such foreign
12insurer's state or country of domicile, net of all credits

SB2105- 10 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1        imposed under Section 11-10-1 of the Illinois
2        Municipal Code,
3    equals 1.25% for taxable years ending prior to December
4    31, 2003, or 1.75% for taxable years ending on or after
5    December 31, 2003, of the net taxable premiums written for
6    the taxable year, as described by subsection (1) of
7    Section 409 of the Illinois Insurance Code. This paragraph
8    will in no event increase the rates imposed under
9    subsections (b) and (d).
10        (2) Any reduction in the rates of tax imposed by this
11    subsection shall be applied first against the rates
12    imposed by subsection (b) and only after the tax imposed
13    by subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
14    Section other than the credit allowed under subsection (i)
15    has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by
16    subsection (d).

20credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
21Tax for investment in qualified property.
22        (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
23    of the basis of qualified property placed in service
24    during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
25    in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed
26    an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of

 

 

SB2105- 11 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    qualified property placed in service during the taxable
2    year, provided such property is placed in service on or
3    after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment
4    within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
5    preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
6    records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment
7    Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be
8    deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for the
9    first year in which they file employment records with the
10    Illinois Department of Employment Security. The provisions
11    added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored
12    by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of
13    existing law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year,
14    the increase in base employment within Illinois over the
15    preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit
16    shall be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the
17    numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
18    1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
19    not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
20    taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
21    any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
22    other than the year in which the property was placed in
23    service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
24    December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
25    credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
26    property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the

 

 

SB2105- 12 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
2    exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
3    amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
4    the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
5    excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
6    which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
7    equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
8    enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
9    Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
10    Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
11    Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
12    complying with the requirements specified in clause (i)
13    and (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
14    Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic
15    Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
16    such certifications immediately. For tax years ending
17    after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
18    the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
19    or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
20    for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
21    or the liability as later amended, such excess may be
22    carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
23    taxable years following the excess credit years. The
24    credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
25    there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one
26    tax year that is available to offset a liability, earlier

 

 

SB2105- 13 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    credit shall be applied first.
2        (2) The term "qualified property" means property
3    which:
4            (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
5        buildings and structural components of buildings and
6        signs that are real property, but not including land
7        or improvements to real property that are not a
8        structural component of a building such as
9        landscaping, sewer lines, local access roads, fencing,
10        parking lots, and other appurtenances;
11            (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
12        Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
13        as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
14        eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
15        (e);
16            (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
17        179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
18            (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
19        primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining coal
20        or fluorite, or in retailing, or was placed in service
21        on or after July 1, 2006 in a River Edge Redevelopment
22        Zone established pursuant to the River Edge
23        Redevelopment Zone Act; and
24            (E) has not previously been used in Illinois in
25        such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
26        the credit provided by this subsection (e) or

 

 

SB2105- 14 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1        subsection (f).
2        (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
3    "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
4    of tangible personal property by procedures commonly
5    regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or
6    assembling which changes some existing material into new
7    shapes, new qualities, or new combinations. For purposes
8    of this subsection (e) the term "mining" shall have the
9    same meaning as the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of the
10    Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of this subsection
11    (e), the term "retailing" means the sale of tangible
12    personal property for use or consumption and not for
13    resale, or services rendered in conjunction with the sale
14    of tangible personal property for use or consumption and
15    not for resale. For purposes of this subsection (e),
16    "tangible personal property" has the same meaning as when
17    that term is used in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
18    and, for taxable years ending after December 31, 2008,
19    does not include the generation, transmission, or
20    distribution of electricity.
21        (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
22    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
23    income tax purposes.
24        (5) If the basis of the property for federal income
25    tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
26    placed in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount

 

 

SB2105- 15 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
2    service on the date of such increase in basis.
3        (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
4    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
5        (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
6    be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
7    48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
8    any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
9    months after being placed in service, the Personal
10    Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year
11    shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined by
12    (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
13    been allowed for the year in which credit for such
14    property was originally allowed by eliminating such
15    property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such
16    recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
17    allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a
18    reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
19    from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
20    deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
21    of such reduction.
22        (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
23    the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
24    incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs
25    incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or
26    before December 31, 2018.

 

 

SB2105- 16 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

2    a partnership may elect to pass through to its partners
3    the credits to which the partnership is entitled under
4    this subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may
5    use the credit allocated to him or her under this
6    paragraph only against the tax imposed in subsections (c)
7    and (d) of this Section. If the partnership makes that
8    election, those credits shall be allocated among the
9    partners in the partnership in accordance with the rules
10    set forth in Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code,
11    and the rules promulgated under that Section, and the
12    allocated amount of the credits shall be allowed to the
13    partners for that taxable year. The partnership shall make
14    this election on its Personal Property Tax Replacement
15    Income Tax return for that taxable year. The election to
16    pass through the credits shall be irrevocable.

7    original liability or the liability as later amended, such
8    excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax

22        (f);
23            (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section

4        subsection (e).
5        (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
6    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
7    income tax purposes.
8        (4) If the basis of the property for federal income
9    tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been
10    placed in service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge
11    Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer, the amount of such
12    increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
13    date of such increase in basis.
14        (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
15    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
16        (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to

18    48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
19    any qualified property is moved outside the Enterprise
20    Zone or River Edge Redevelopment Zone within 48 months
21    after being placed in service, the tax imposed under
22    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable
23    year shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined
24    by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
25    been allowed for the year in which credit for such
26    property was originally allowed by eliminating such

 

 

SB2105- 20 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
2    recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
3    allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a
4    reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting
5    from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be
6    deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent
7    of such reduction.
8        (7) There shall be allowed an additional credit equal
9    to 0.5% of the basis of qualified property placed in
10    service during the taxable year in a River Edge
11    Redevelopment Zone, provided such property is placed in
12    service on or after July 1, 2006, and the taxpayer's base
13    employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more
14    over the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
15    employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
16    Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
17    shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base
18    employment for the first year in which they file
19    employment records with the Illinois Department of
20    Employment Security. If, in any year, the increase in base
21    employment within Illinois over the preceding year is less
22    than 1%, the additional credit shall be limited to that
23    percentage times a fraction, the numerator of which is
24    0.5% and the denominator of which is 1%, but shall not
25    exceed 0.5%.
26        (8) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1,

 

 

SB2105- 21 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    2021, there shall be allowed an Enterprise Zone
2    construction jobs credit against the taxes imposed under
3    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section as provided in
4    Section 13 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act.
5        The credit or credits may not reduce the taxpayer's
6    liability to less than zero. If the amount of the credit or
7    credits exceeds the taxpayer's liability, the excess may
8    be carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's
9    liability in succeeding calendar years in the same manner
10    provided under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act.
11    The credit or credits shall be applied to the earliest
12    year for which there is a tax liability. If there are
13    credits from more than one taxable year that are available
14    to offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be applied
15    first.
16        For partners, shareholders of Subchapter S
17    corporations, and owners of limited liability companies,
18    if the liability company is treated as a partnership for
19    the purposes of federal and State income taxation, there
20    shall be allowed a credit under this Section to be
21    determined in accordance with the determination of income
22    and distributive share of income under Sections 702 and
23    704 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.

SB2105- 30 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1    For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying expenditures"
2means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
3credit for increasing research activities which would be
4allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
5which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures
6for increasing research activities in this State" means the
7excess of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in
8which incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base
9period, "qualifying expenditures for the base period" means
10the average of the qualifying expenditures for each year in
11the base period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years
12immediately preceding the taxable year for which the
13determination is being made.
14    Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
15year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
16unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
17as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
18taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever
19occurs first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year
20ending prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any
21year ending on or after December 31, 2003.
22    If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
232 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
24year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
25given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
26remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be

 

 

SB2105- 31 -LRB103 29118 HLH 55504 b

1applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
2liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
3credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
4following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
5that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
6than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
7credit is given was incurred.
8    No inference shall be drawn from Public Act 91-644 in
9construing this Section for taxable years beginning before
10January 1, 1999.
11    It is the intent of the General Assembly that the research
12and development credit under this subsection (k) shall apply

15limited to, the period beginning on January 1, 2016 and ending
16on July 6, 2017 (the effective date of Public Act 100-22). All
17actions taken in reliance on the continuation of the credit

7    58.10 of the Environmental Protection Act. The credit must
8    be claimed for the taxable year in which Agency approval
9    of the eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit
10    is not available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any
11    related party caused or contributed to, in any material
12    respect, a release of regulated substances on, in, or
13    under the site that was identified and addressed by the
14    remedial action pursuant to the Site Remediation Program
15    of the Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution
16    Control Board rules are adopted pursuant to the Illinois
17    Administrative Procedure Act for the administration and
18    enforcement of Section 58.9 of the Environmental
19    Protection Act, determinations as to credit availability
20    for purposes of this Section shall be made consistent with
21    those rules. For purposes of this Section, "taxpayer"
22    includes a person whose tax attributes the taxpayer has
23    succeeded to under Section 381 of the Internal Revenue

6    site contained in an enterprise zone as determined by the
7    Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
8    Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
9    total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year
10    with a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners
11    and shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall
12    be allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined
13    in accordance with the determination of income and
14    distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
15    and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
16        (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
17    unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried

6    if the only source of net income of the individual (or the
7    individual and the individual's spouse in the case of a
8    joint return) is from an entity making the election under
9    paragraph (1) and the credit allowed to the partner or
10    shareholder under paragraph (4) equals or exceeds the

12    subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act for the
13    taxable year.
14        (6) Liability for tax. Except as provided in this
15    paragraph, a partnership or Subchapter S making the
16    election under paragraph (1) is liable for the
17    entity-level tax imposed under paragraph (2). If the
18    electing partnership or corporation fails to pay the full
19    amount of tax deemed assessed under paragraph (2), the
20    partners or shareholders shall be liable to pay the tax
21    assessed (including penalties and interest). Each partner
22    or shareholder shall be liable for the unpaid assessment
23    based on the ratio of the partner's or shareholder's share
24    of the net income of the partnership over the total net
25    income of the partnership. If the partnership or

7    partnership or Subchapter S corporation to another state
8    which, as determined by the Department, is substantially
9    similar to the tax imposed under this subsection, shall be
10    considered tax paid by the partner or shareholder to the
11    extent that the partner's or shareholder's share of the
12    income of the partnership or Subchapter S corporation
13    allocated and apportioned to such other state bears to the
14    total income of the partnership or Subchapter S
15    corporation allocated or apportioned to such other state.
16        (8) Suspension of withholding. The provisions of
17    Section 709.5 of this Act shall not apply to a partnership
18    or Subchapter S corporation for the taxable year for which
19    an election under paragraph (1) is in effect.
20        (9) Requirement to pay estimated tax. For each taxable
21    year for which an election under paragraph (1) is in
22    effect, a partnership or Subchapter S corporation is

24    Sections 803 and 804 of this Act if the amount payable as
25    estimated tax can reasonably be expected to exceed $500.
