2 | | (a) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, |
3 | | 2025, an Authority may award a credit to the owner of a |
4 | | qualified development simultaneously with the federal tax |
5 | | credit in an amount determined by the Authority, subject to |
6 | | the following guidelines: |
7 | | (1) the Authority must find that the credit is |
8 | | necessary for the financial feasibility of the qualified |
9 | | development; |
10 | | (2) the aggregate amount of credits awarded to |
11 | | qualified developments for each calendar year shall not |
12 | | exceed $20,000,000, plus the amount of unallocated |
13 | | credits, if any, from the preceding calendar year, plus |
14 | | the amount of any credit recaptured or otherwise returned |
15 | | to an Authority since the preceding calendar year; |
16 | | (3) of the $20,000,000 annual allocation: |
17 | | (A) 75.5% of the available credits for each |
18 | | calendar year shall be awarded by the Illinois Housing |
19 | | Development Authority, plus any credits the Illinois |
20 | | Housing Development Authority did not award from prior |
21 | | calendar years, plus the amount of any credits |
22 | | recaptured or otherwise returned to the Illinois |
23 | | Housing Development Authority from prior calendar |
24 | | years; and |
25 | | (B) 24.5% of the available credits in each |
26 | | calendar year shall be awarded by the City of Chicago |
|
| | SB3233 | - 6 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | Department of Housing, plus any credits the City of |
2 | | Chicago Department of Housing did not award from prior |
3 | | calendar years, plus the amount of any credits |
4 | | recaptured or otherwise returned to the City of |
5 | | Chicago Department of Housing since the prior calendar |
6 | | year; and |
7 | | (4) unless otherwise provided in this Act, or unless |
8 | | the context clearly requires otherwise, an Authority must |
9 | | determine eligibility for credits and award credits in |
10 | | accordance with the standards and requirements set forth |
11 | | in Section 42 of the federal Internal Revenue Code of 1986 |
12 | | and, to the extent possible, use the same forms that are |
13 | | used in administering the credit under Section 42 of the |
14 | | federal Internal Revenue Code of 1986. |
15 | | (b) For tax years during the credit period, any qualified |
16 | | taxpayer is allowed a credit, as provided in this Act, against |
17 | | either of the following: (i) the taxes imposed by subsections |
18 | | (a) and (b) of Section 201 of the Illinois Income Tax Act; or |
19 | | (ii) any privilege tax or retaliatory tax, penalty, fee, |
20 | | charge, or payment imposed under the Illinois Insurance Code. |
21 | | (c) A qualified taxpayer may claim a credit under this Act |
22 | | so long as the taxpayer's direct or indirect interest in the |
23 | | qualified development is acquired prior to the filing of its |
24 | | tax return claiming the credit. On or before March 31 |
25 | | following each year of the credit period, the owner must |
26 | | submit to the Department, the Department of Insurance, and the |
|
| | SB3233 | - 7 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | applicable Authority an allocation schedule certification, in |
2 | | an electronic format prescribed by the Department, the |
3 | | Department of Insurance, and the Authority, respectively, |
4 | | detailing the amount of the credit allocated to the qualified |
5 | | taxpayer for the applicable year and stating whether the |
6 | | qualified taxpayer has elected to claim the credit against the |
7 | | taxpayer's State income tax or insurance privilege tax or |
8 | | retaliatory tax liability. The taxpayer may assign to a |
9 | | designee the duty of preparing and submitting the allocation |
10 | | schedule certification. In that case, the designee must |
11 | | provide the allocation schedule certification to the |
12 | | Department, the Department of Insurance, and the applicable |
13 | | Authority on or before the deadline for submission. The |
14 | | qualified taxpayer must notify the Department, the Department |
15 | | of Insurance, and the applicable Authority if it assigns that |
16 | | duty to its designee. |
17 | | The allocation schedule certification submitted under this |
18 | | Section may be amended if the State credit eligibility |
19 | | statement for a project is received after the deadline for |
20 | | filing the allocation schedule certification. Any amendment to |
21 | | an allocation schedule certification shall be filed before the |
22 | | taxpayer attempts to claim tax credits associated with the |
23 | | applicable State credit eligibility statement. Each qualified |
24 | | taxpayer is allowed to claim its awarded amount of credit |
25 | | subject to any restrictions set forth in this Section. If the |
26 | | credit is to be taken against the income tax and the qualified |
|
| | SB3233 | - 8 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | taxpayer is a pass-through entity, then the provisions of |
2 | | Section 251 of the Illinois Income Tax Act apply. |
3 | | (d) No credit may be awarded under this Act unless the |
4 | | qualified development is the subject of a recorded restrictive |
5 | | covenant requiring the development to be maintained and |
6 | | operated as a qualified development; this requirement for a |
7 | | recorded restrictive covenant may be satisfied by the |
8 | | agreement for an extended low-income housing commitment |
9 | | required for the federal tax credits as defined in Section |
10 | | 42(h)(6)(B) of the federal Internal Revenue Code of 1986. |
11 | | (e) If, during a taxable year, there is a determination |
12 | | that no recorded restrictive covenant meeting the requirements |
13 | | of subsection (d) was in effect as of the beginning of that |
14 | | year, the determination shall not apply to any period before |
15 | | that year and subsection (e) shall be applied without regard |
16 | | to that determination if the failure is corrected within one |
17 | | year after the date of the determination. |
18 | | (f) The tax credit under this Act may not reduce the |
19 | | taxpayer's liability to less than zero. If the amount of the |
20 | | tax credit exceeds the tax liability for the year, the excess |
21 | | may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the |
22 | | 5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The credit |
23 | | must be applied to the earliest year for which there is a tax |
24 | | liability. If there are credits from more than one tax year |
25 | | that are available to offset a liability, then the earlier |
26 | | credit must be applied first. Credits that are initially |
|
| | SB3233 | - 9 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | claimed against taxes imposed by the Illinois Income Tax Act |
2 | | may be carried forward only against the taxpayer's future |
3 | | Illinois Income Tax liability. Credits that are initially |
4 | | claimed against taxes, penalties, fees, charges, and payments |
5 | | imposed by the Illinois Insurance Code may be carried forward |
6 | | only against taxes, penalties, fees, charges, and payments |
7 | | imposed by the Illinois Insurance Code. Credits that are not |
8 | | claimed or carried forward may not be refunded to the |
9 | | taxpayer. The qualified taxpayer is solely responsible for |
10 | | correctly filing tax returns, and an Authority is not |
11 | | responsible for monitoring the calculation of taxes under this |
12 | | Section. |
13 | | (g) By March 31, 2025 and by March 31 of each year |
14 | | thereafter, each Authority shall provide to the Department and |
15 | | the Department of Insurance an electronic file containing all |
16 | | data related to all State credit eligibility statements issued |
17 | | during the preceding year in the manner and form as provided by |
18 | | each respective Department. |
19 | | (h) Each Authority is entitled to a reservation fee of 1% |
20 | | of the credit awarded under this Section for each year of the |
21 | | award to support the cost of compliance monitoring. An |
22 | | Authority may exercise the option to impose a compliance fee |
23 | | or a penalty in the exercise of its compliance monitoring |
24 | | function under this Act. |
25 | | Section 20. Recapture. If, under Section 42 of the |
|
| | SB3233 | - 10 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | Internal Revenue Code, a portion of any federal tax credit |
2 | | claimed with respect to a qualified development for which a |
3 | | credit has been awarded under this Act is required by the |
4 | | Internal Revenue Service to be recaptured during the first 6 |
5 | | years after a project is placed in service, then, within 60 |
6 | | days after becoming aware of the federal tax credit recapture, |
7 | | the project owner shall provide the Department, the Department |
8 | | of Insurance, and the applicable Authority with notice of the |
9 | | federal tax credit recapture. Notice shall be provided in the |
10 | | manner and form as provided by the Department, the Department |
11 | | of Insurance, and the Authority, respectively. If an Authority |
12 | | issues a federal Form 8823 to the owner of a qualified |
13 | | development that has been awarded a credit under this Act, and |
14 | | an Authority has not been notified within 6 months of filing |
15 | | the Form 8823 that the noncompliance has been remedied, an |
16 | | Authority shall submit the Form 8823 to the Department or |
17 | | Department of Insurance, as applicable. The amount of credit |
18 | | subject to recapture shall be proportionately equal to the |
19 | | amount of the qualified development's federal tax credits that |
20 | | are subject to recapture. If the project owner (or one of the |
21 | | project owner's direct or indirect members) fails to notify |
22 | | the Department or the Department of Insurance, as applicable, |
23 | | of any recapture of the federal tax credit, then the entire |
24 | | amount of the State tax credit awarded for the qualified |
25 | | development is subject to recapture. The qualified taxpayer |
26 | | subject to recapture shall increase the qualified taxpayer's |
|
| | SB3233 | - 11 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | tax by the amount of any credit subject to recapture in the tax |
2 | | year the qualified taxpayer is notified of the recapture. If |
3 | | multiple taxpayers claimed credit with respect to the building |
4 | | for which credit is to be recaptured, each of those taxpayers |
5 | | shall be liable for a portion of the recapture equal to the |
6 | | percentages of credit with respect to the building originally |
7 | | claimed by the taxpayer. |
8 | | Section 25. Filing requirements. An owner of a qualified |
9 | | development that has been awarded a credit and each qualified |
10 | | taxpayer claiming any portion of the credit must file with |
11 | | their State tax returns a copy of the State credit eligibility |
12 | | statement issued by an Authority for that qualified |
13 | | development. In addition, the owner of a qualified development |
14 | | or its designee shall file a copy of the allocation schedule |
15 | | certification prior to any tax return being filed claiming a |
16 | | State credit for such qualified development. A qualified |
17 | | taxpayer receiving any allocated portion of a credit through a |
18 | | pass-through entity shall attach to its State tax return a |
19 | | copy of the Schedule K-1-P for that taxable year. |
20 | | Section 30. Compliance monitoring. An Authority, in |
21 | | consultation with the Department and Department of Insurance, |
22 | | shall monitor and oversee compliance with the provisions of |
23 | | this Act and shall report specific occurrences of |
24 | | noncompliance to the Department and the Department of |
|
| | SB3233 | - 12 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | Insurance in the manner and form as provided by the Department |
2 | | and the Department of Insurance. An Authority shall make every |
3 | | effort to monitor and report noncompliance using the same |
4 | | procedures used for compliance monitoring of the federal tax |
5 | | credits. |
6 | | Section 35. Report to the General Assembly. |
7 | | (a) Each Authority must, by March 31, 2026 and by March 31 |
8 | | of each year thereafter, provide a written report to the |
9 | | General Assembly and must publish that report on its website. |
10 | | (b) The report shall: |
11 | | (1) set forth the number of qualified developments |
12 | | that have been awarded tax credits under this Act during |
13 | | the calendar year and the total number of units supported |
14 | | by each qualified development; |
15 | | (2) describe each qualified development that has been |
16 | | awarded tax credits under this Act, including, without |
17 | | limitation, the geographic location of the qualified |
18 | | development, the household type, the income levels |
19 | | intended to be served by the qualified development, and |
20 | | the rents or set-asides authorized for each qualified |
21 | | development; |
22 | | (3) provide housing market information that |
23 | | demonstrates how the qualified developments supported by |
24 | | the tax credits are addressing the need for affordable |
25 | | housing within the communities they are intended to serve |
|
| | SB3233 | - 13 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | as well as information about any remaining disparities in |
2 | | the affordability of housing within those communities; and |
3 | | (4) provide information about the percentage of |
4 | | qualified developments that were awarded credits and that |
5 | | received incentive scoring points as a result of the |
6 | | general contractor, property manager, architect, or |
7 | | sponsor being certified under the Business Enterprise |
8 | | Program for Minorities, Females, and Persons with a |
9 | | Disability. |
10 | | Section 40. Exempt from automatic sunset. The credit under |
11 | | this Act is exempt from the provisions of Section 250 of the |
12 | | Illinois Income Tax Act. |
13 | | Section 900. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by |
14 | | adding Section 241 as follows: |

16 | | Sec. 241. Build Illinois Homes Tax Credit Act. |
17 | | (a) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1, |
18 | | 2025, any eligible taxpayer with respect to a credit awarded |

22 | | imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 as provided |
23 | | in the Build Illinois Homes Tax Credit Act. |
|
| | SB3233 | - 14 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |

|
1 | | (b) The taxpayer shall attach a copy of the allocation |
2 | | schedule certification and the State credit eligibility |

4 | | Act to the tax return on which the credits are to be claimed. |
5 | | (c) If, during any taxable year, a taxpayer is notified of |
6 | | a recapture of a credit previously claimed on a State income |
7 | | tax return in accordance with 42 U.S.C. 42, the tax imposed |
8 | | under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 for that taxpayer |
9 | | for that taxable year shall be increased. The amount of the |
10 | | increase shall be determined by (i) recomputing the Build |
11 | | Illinois Homes Tax Credit that would have been allowed for the |
12 | | year in which the credit was originally allowed by eliminating |
13 | | the recaptured amount from such computation, and (ii) |
14 | | subtracting that recomputed credit from the amount of credit |
15 | | previously allowed. No Build Illinois Homes Tax Credit shall |

12 | | that all companies transacting insurance in this State whose |

5 | | December 31, 1998; and |
6 | | (iii) all other companies shall have estimated tax |
7 | | installments due on June 15, September 15, and December 15 |
8 | | of 1998 which installments shall each amount to no less |
9 | | than one-third of 80% of the actual tax on its net taxable |
10 | | premium written during the calendar year 1998. |
11 | | In the year 1999 and thereafter all companies shall make |
12 | | annual and quarterly installments of their estimated tax as |
13 | | provided by paragraph (a) of this subsection. |
14 | | (5) In addition to the authority specifically granted |
15 | | under Article XXV of this Code, the Director shall have such |
16 | | authority to adopt rules and establish forms as may be |

18 | | allocation of Illinois corporate income taxes paid under |
19 | | subsections (a) through (d) of Section 201 of the Illinois |
20 | | Income Tax Act amongst members of a business group that files |
21 | | an Illinois corporate income tax return on a unitary basis, |
22 | | for purposes of regulating the amendment of tax returns, for |
23 | | purposes of defining terms, and for purposes of enforcing the |
24 | | provisions of Article XXV of this Code. The Director shall |
25 | | also have authority to defer, waive, or abate the tax imposed |
26 | | by this Section if in his opinion the company's solvency and |
|
| | SB3233 | - 20 - | LRB103 38198 HLH 68331 b |
|
|
1 | | ability to meet its insured obligations would be immediately |

11 | | calendar year for which the retaliatory tax calculation is |
12 | | being made, less the recapture of any Illinois corporate |
13 | | income tax cash refunds to the extent that the amount of tax |
14 | | refunded was reported as part of the Illinois basis in the |
15 | | calculation of the retaliatory tax for a prior tax year, |
16 | | provided that such recaptured refund shall not exceed the |
17 | | amount necessary for equivalence of the Illinois basis with |
18 | | the state of incorporation basis in such tax year, and after |
