the sum of the following amounts: |
(A) An amount equal to all amounts paid or accrued |
|
to the taxpayer as interest or dividends during the |

in the computation of adjusted gross income, except |

subparagraph (L) of this paragraph (2) prior to July |
1, 1991, the retrospective application date of Article |
4 of Public Act 87-17. In the case of multi-unit or |

the taxpayer's principal residence shall be that |
portion of the total taxes for the entire property |
which is attributable to such principal residence; |
(D) An amount equal to the amount of the capital |
gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue |
Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the |
computation of adjusted gross income; |
|
(D-5) An amount, to the extent not included in |
adjusted gross income, equal to the amount of money |
withdrawn by the taxpayer in the taxable year from a |
medical care savings account and the interest earned |

pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 20 of the |
Medical Care Savings Account Act or subsection (b) of |
Section 20 of the Medical Care Savings Account Act of |
2000; |
(D-10) For taxable years ending after December 31, |
1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation |
costs that the individual deducted in computing |
adjusted gross income and for which the individual |
claims a credit under subsection (l) of Section 201; |
(D-15) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, an |
amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken |
on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for the |
taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of |
the Internal Revenue Code; |
(D-16) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons, |
or otherwise disposes of property for which the |
taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an |
addition modification under subparagraph (D-15), then |
an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the |
deductions taken in all taxable years under |
subparagraph (Z) with respect to that property. |
|
If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (Z) and for which the taxpayer was |
allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction |
modification under subparagraph (Z), then an amount |
equal to that subtraction modification. |
The taxpayer is required to make the addition |
modification under this subparagraph only once with |
respect to any one piece of property; |
(D-17) An amount equal to the amount otherwise |
allowed as a deduction in computing base income for |
interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a |
member of the same unitary business group but for the |
fact that foreign person's business activity outside |
the United States is 80% or more of the foreign |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification |
|
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the |
extent that dividends were included in base income of |
the unitary group for the same taxable year and |
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts |
included in gross income under Sections 951 through |
964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts included |
in gross income under Section 78 of the Internal |
Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the same |
person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or |
incurred. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer can establish, based on a |
preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
|
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
|
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible |
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in |
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a |
foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
|
income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal |
Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income |
under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with |
respect to the stock of the same person to whom the |
intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence does not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management, |
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of |
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting |
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and |
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other |
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents, |
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service |
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
|
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
|
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-19) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
|
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
203(a)(2)(D-17) or Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this |
Act; |
(D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after |

January 1, 2007, in the case of a distribution from a |
qualified tuition program under Section 529 of the |
|
Internal Revenue Code, other than (i) a distribution |

of the State Treasurer Act, (ii) a distribution from |
the Illinois Prepaid Tuition Trust Fund, or (iii) a |

efforts to inform in-state residents of the existence |
of in-state qualified tuition programs by informing |
Illinois residents directly and, where applicable, to |
inform financial intermediaries distributing the |
program to inform in-state residents of the existence |
of in-state qualified tuition programs at least |
annually, an amount equal to the amount excluded from |
gross income under Section 529(c)(3)(B). |
For the purposes of this subparagraph (D-20), a |
qualified tuition program has made reasonable efforts |
if it makes disclosures (which may use the term |
"in-state program" or "in-state plan" and need not |
specifically refer to Illinois or its qualified |
programs by name) (i) directly to prospective |
participants in its offering materials or makes a |
public disclosure, such as a website posting; and (ii) |
where applicable, to intermediaries selling the |

to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |

or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |

foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
|
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |
|
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management, |
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of |
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting |
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and |
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other |
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents, |
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service |
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
|
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
|
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(E-14) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
|
203(b)(2)(E-12) or Section 203(b)(2)(E-13) of this |
Act; |

under subparagraph (R) and for which the taxpayer was |
allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction |
modification under subparagraph (R), then an amount |
equal to that subtraction modification. |
The taxpayer is required to make the addition |
modification under this subparagraph only once with |
respect to any one piece of property; |
(G-12) An amount equal to the amount otherwise |
allowed as a deduction in computing base income for |
interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a |
member of the same unitary business group but for the |
fact that the foreign person's business activity |
outside the United States is 80% or more of the foreign |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification |
|
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the |
extent that dividends were included in base income of |
the unitary group for the same taxable year and |
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts |
included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951 |
through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts |
included in gross income under Section 78 of the |
Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of |
the same person to whom the interest was paid, |
accrued, or incurred. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer can establish, based on a |
preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
|
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
|
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(G-13) An amount equal to the amount of intangible |
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in |
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a |
foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
|
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1) |
expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the |
direct or indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or |
management, ownership, sale, exchange, or any other |
disposition of intangible property; (2) losses |
incurred, directly or indirectly, from factoring |
transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty, |
patent, technical, and copyright fees; (4) licensing |
fees; and (5) other similar expenses and costs. For |
purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible property" |
includes patents, patent applications, trade names, |
trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works, |
trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
|
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
|
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(G-14) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
|
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
203(c)(2)(G-12) or Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this |
Act; |
(G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to |
the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act, |
determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this |
Act; |
(G-16) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2017, an amount equal to the deduction |
allowed under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code |
for the taxable year; |
and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the |
following amounts: |
(H) An amount equal to all amounts included in |
such total pursuant to the provisions of Sections |
|
402(a), 402(c), 403(a), 403(b), 406(a), 407(a) and 408 |
of the Internal Revenue Code or included in such total |
as distributions under the provisions of any |
retirement or disability plan for employees of any |
governmental agency or unit, or retirement payments to |
retired partners, which payments are excluded in |
computing net earnings from self employment by Section |
1402 of the Internal Revenue Code and regulations |
adopted pursuant thereto; |
(I) The valuation limitation amount; |
(J) An amount equal to the amount of any tax |
imposed by this Act which was refunded to the taxpayer |
and included in such total for the taxable year; |
(K) An amount equal to all amounts included in |
taxable income as modified by subparagraphs (A), (B), |
(C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) which are exempt from |
taxation by this State either by reason of its |
statutes or Constitution or by reason of the |
Constitution, treaties or statutes of the United |
States; provided that, in the case of any statute of |
this State that exempts income derived from bonds or |
other obligations from the tax imposed under this Act, |
the amount exempted shall be the interest net of bond |
premium amortization; |
(L) With the exception of any amounts subtracted |
under subparagraph (K), an amount equal to the sum of |
|
all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections |
171(a)(2) and 265(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, |
and all amounts of expenses allocable to interest and |
disallowed as deductions by Section 265(a)(1) of the |
Internal Revenue Code; and (ii) for taxable years |
ending on or after August 13, 1999, Sections |
171(a)(2), 265, 280C, and 832(b)(5)(B)(i) of the |
Internal Revenue Code, plus, (iii) for taxable years |
ending on or after December 31, 2011, Section |
45G(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, |
any amount included in gross income under Section 87 |
of the Internal Revenue Code; the provisions of this |
subparagraph are exempt from the provisions of Section |
250; |
(M) An amount equal to those dividends included in |
such total which were paid by a corporation which |
conducts business operations in a River Edge |
Redevelopment Zone or zones created under the River |
Edge Redevelopment Zone Act and conducts substantially |
all of its operations in a River Edge Redevelopment |
Zone or zones. This subparagraph (M) is exempt from |
the provisions of Section 250; |
(N) An amount equal to any contribution made to a |
job training project established pursuant to the Tax |
Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act; |
|
(O) An amount equal to those dividends included in |
such total that were paid by a corporation that |

Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone and that is designated |
a High Impact Business located in Illinois; provided |
that dividends eligible for the deduction provided in |
subparagraph (M) of paragraph (2) of this subsection |
shall not be eligible for the deduction provided under |
this subparagraph (O); |
(P) An amount equal to the amount of the deduction |
used to compute the federal income tax credit for |
restoration of substantial amounts held under claim of |
right for the taxable year pursuant to Section 1341 of |
the Internal Revenue Code; |
(Q) For taxable year 1999 and thereafter, an |
amount equal to the amount of any (i) distributions, |
to the extent includible in gross income for federal |
income tax purposes, made to the taxpayer because of |
his or her status as a victim of persecution for racial |
or religious reasons by Nazi Germany or any other Axis |
regime or as an heir of the victim and (ii) items of |
income, to the extent includible in gross income for |
federal income tax purposes, attributable to, derived |
from or in any way related to assets stolen from, |
hidden from, or otherwise lost to a victim of |
persecution for racial or religious reasons by Nazi |
|
Germany or any other Axis regime immediately prior to, |
during, and immediately after World War II, including, |
but not limited to, interest on the proceeds |
receivable as insurance under policies issued to a |
victim of persecution for racial or religious reasons |
by Nazi Germany or any other Axis regime by European |
insurance companies immediately prior to and during |
World War II; provided, however, this subtraction from |
federal adjusted gross income does not apply to assets |
acquired with such assets or with the proceeds from |
the sale of such assets; provided, further, this |
paragraph shall only apply to a taxpayer who was the |
first recipient of such assets after their recovery |
and who is a victim of persecution for racial or |
religious reasons by Nazi Germany or any other Axis |
regime or as an heir of the victim. The amount of and |
the eligibility for any public assistance, benefit, or |
similar entitlement is not affected by the inclusion |
of items (i) and (ii) of this paragraph in gross income |
for federal income tax purposes. This paragraph is |
exempt from the provisions of Section 250; |
(R) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, for the |
taxable year in which the bonus depreciation deduction |
is taken on the taxpayer's federal income tax return |
under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the Internal |
Revenue Code and for each applicable taxable year |
|
thereafter, an amount equal to "x", where: |
(1) "y" equals the amount of the depreciation |
deduction taken for the taxable year on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return on property |
for which the bonus depreciation deduction was |
taken in any year under subsection (k) of Section |
168 of the Internal Revenue Code, but not |
including the bonus depreciation deduction; |
(2) for taxable years ending on or before |
December 31, 2005, "x" equals "y" multiplied by 30 |
and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied by |
0.429); and |
(3) for taxable years ending after December |
31, 2005: |
(i) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 30% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |
30 and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied |
by 0.429); |
(ii) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |
1.0; |
(iii) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 100% of the adjusted |
basis was taken in a taxable year ending on or |
|
after December 31, 2021, "x" equals the |
depreciation deduction that would be allowed |
on that property if the taxpayer had made the |
election under Section 168(k)(7) of the |
Internal Revenue Code to not claim bonus |
depreciation on that property; and |
(iv) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of a percentage other |
than 30%, 50% or 100% of the adjusted basis |
was taken in a taxable year ending on or after |
December 31, 2021, "x" equals "y" multiplied |
by 100 times the percentage bonus depreciation |
on the property (that is, 100(bonus%)) and |
then divided by 100 times 1 minus the |
percentage bonus depreciation on the property |
(that is, 100(1-bonus%)). |
The aggregate amount deducted under this |
subparagraph in all taxable years for any one piece of |
property may not exceed the amount of the bonus |
depreciation deduction taken on that property on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return under subsection |
(k) of Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code. This |
subparagraph (R) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(S) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons, or |
otherwise disposes of property for which the taxpayer |
|
was required in any taxable year to make an addition |

If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (R) and for which the taxpayer was |
required in any taxable year to make an addition |
modification under subparagraph (G-10), then an amount |

203(c)(2)(G-12), or 203(d)(2)(D-7), but not to exceed |
the amount of such addition modification and (ii) any |
income from intangible property (net of the deductions |
allocable thereto) taken into account for the taxable |

person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304, but not to exceed the |
addition modification required to be made for the same |
taxable year under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) for |

indirectly, to the same person. This subparagraph (U) |
is exempt from the provisions of Section 250; |
|
(V) An amount equal to the income from intangible |
property taken into account for the taxable year (net |
of the deductions allocable thereto) with respect to |
transactions with (i) a foreign person who would be a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group but |
for the fact that the foreign person's business |
activity outside the United States is 80% or more of |
that person's total business activity and (ii) for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |

that part of a reimbursement received from the |
insurance company equal to the amount of the expense |
or loss (including expenses incurred by the insurance |
company) that would have been taken into account as a |
deduction for federal income tax purposes if the |
expense or loss had been uninsured. If a taxpayer |
makes the election provided for by this subparagraph |
(Y), the insurer to which the premiums were paid must |
add back to income the amount subtracted by the |
taxpayer pursuant to this subparagraph (Y). This |
subparagraph (Y) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(Z) For taxable years beginning after December 31, |

of Section 250. |
(3) Limitation. The amount of any modification |
otherwise required under this subsection shall, under |
regulations prescribed by the Department, be adjusted by |
any amounts included therein which were properly paid, |
credited, or required to be distributed, or permanently |
set aside for charitable purposes pursuant to Internal |
Revenue Code Section 642(c) during the taxable year. |
(d) Partnerships. |
(1) In general. In the case of a partnership, base |
income means an amount equal to the taxpayer's taxable |
|
income for the taxable year as modified by paragraph (2). |
(2) Modifications. The taxable income referred to in |
paragraph (1) shall be modified by adding thereto the sum |
of the following amounts: |
(A) An amount equal to all amounts paid or accrued |
to the taxpayer as interest or dividends during the |
taxable year to the extent excluded from gross income |
in the computation of taxable income; |
(B) An amount equal to the amount of tax imposed by |
this Act to the extent deducted from gross income for |

(D-6) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons, |
or otherwise disposes of property for which the |
|
taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an |

an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the |
deductions taken in all taxable years under |
subparagraph (O) with respect to that property. |
If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (O) and for which the taxpayer was |
allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction |
modification under subparagraph (O), then an amount |
equal to that subtraction modification. |
The taxpayer is required to make the addition |
modification under this subparagraph only once with |
respect to any one piece of property; |
(D-7) An amount equal to the amount otherwise |
allowed as a deduction in computing base income for |
interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after |

member of the same unitary business group but for the |
fact the foreign person's business activity outside |
the United States is 80% or more of the foreign |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
|
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification |
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the |
extent that dividends were included in base income of |
the unitary group for the same taxable year and |
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts |
included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951 |
through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts |
included in gross income under Section 78 of the |
Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of |
the same person to whom the interest was paid, |
accrued, or incurred. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer can establish, based on a |
|
preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
|
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; and |
(D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible |
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in |
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a |
foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
|
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management, |
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of |
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting |
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and |
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other |
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents, |
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service |
|
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets; |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
|
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-9) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
|
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
203(d)(2)(D-7) or Section 203(d)(2)(D-8) of this Act; |
(D-10) An amount equal to the credit allowable to |
the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act, |
determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this |
Act; |
(D-11) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2017, an amount equal to the deduction |
allowed under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code |
for the taxable year; |
|
and by deducting from the total so obtained the following |
amounts: |
(E) The valuation limitation amount; |
(F) An amount equal to the amount of any tax |
imposed by this Act which was refunded to the taxpayer |
and included in such total for the taxable year; |
(G) An amount equal to all amounts included in |
taxable income as modified by subparagraphs (A), (B), |
(C) and (D) which are exempt from taxation by this |
State either by reason of its statutes or Constitution |
or by reason of the Constitution, treaties or statutes |
of the United States; provided that, in the case of any |
statute of this State that exempts income derived from |
bonds or other obligations from the tax imposed under |
this Act, the amount exempted shall be the interest |
net of bond premium amortization; |
(H) Any income of the partnership which |
constitutes personal service income as defined in |
Section 1348(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (as in |
effect December 31, 1981) or a reasonable allowance |
for compensation paid or accrued for services rendered |
by partners to the partnership, whichever is greater; |
this subparagraph (H) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(I) An amount equal to all amounts of income |
distributable to an entity subject to the Personal |
|
Property Tax Replacement Income Tax imposed by |
subsections (c) and (d) of Section 201 of this Act |
including amounts distributable to organizations |
exempt from federal income tax by reason of Section |
501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code; this subparagraph |
(I) is exempt from the provisions of Section 250; |
(J) With the exception of any amounts subtracted |
under subparagraph (G), an amount equal to the sum of |
all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections |
171(a)(2) and 265(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, |
and all amounts of expenses allocable to interest and |
disallowed as deductions by Section 265(a)(1) of the |
Internal Revenue Code; and (ii) for taxable years |
ending on or after August 13, 1999, Sections |
171(a)(2), 265, 280C, and 832(b)(5)(B)(i) of the |
Internal Revenue Code, plus, (iii) for taxable years |
ending on or after December 31, 2011, Section |
45G(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, |
any amount included in gross income under Section 87 |
of the Internal Revenue Code; the provisions of this |
subparagraph are exempt from the provisions of Section |
250; |
(K) An amount equal to those dividends included in |
such total which were paid by a corporation which |
conducts business operations in a River Edge |
|
Redevelopment Zone or zones created under the River |
Edge Redevelopment Zone Act and conducts substantially |
all of its operations from a River Edge Redevelopment |
Zone or zones. This subparagraph (K) is exempt from |
the provisions of Section 250; |
(L) An amount equal to any contribution made to a |
job training project established pursuant to the Real |
Property Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act; |
(M) An amount equal to those dividends included in |
such total that were paid by a corporation that |
conducts business operations in a federally designated |
Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone and that is designated |
a High Impact Business located in Illinois; provided |
that dividends eligible for the deduction provided in |
subparagraph (K) of paragraph (2) of this subsection |
shall not be eligible for the deduction provided under |
this subparagraph (M); |
(N) An amount equal to the amount of the deduction |
used to compute the federal income tax credit for |
restoration of substantial amounts held under claim of |
right for the taxable year pursuant to Section 1341 of |
the Internal Revenue Code; |
(O) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, for the |
taxable year in which the bonus depreciation deduction |
is taken on the taxpayer's federal income tax return |
under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the Internal |
|
Revenue Code and for each applicable taxable year |
thereafter, an amount equal to "x", where: |
(1) "y" equals the amount of the depreciation |
deduction taken for the taxable year on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return on property |
for which the bonus depreciation deduction was |
taken in any year under subsection (k) of Section |
168 of the Internal Revenue Code, but not |
including the bonus depreciation deduction; |
(2) for taxable years ending on or before |
December 31, 2005, "x" equals "y" multiplied by 30 |
and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied by |
0.429); and |
(3) for taxable years ending after December |
31, 2005: |
(i) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 30% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |
30 and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied |
by 0.429); |
(ii) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |
1.0; |
(iii) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 100% of the adjusted |
|
basis was taken in a taxable year ending on or |
after December 31, 2021, "x" equals the |
depreciation deduction that would be allowed |
on that property if the taxpayer had made the |
election under Section 168(k)(7) of the |
Internal Revenue Code to not claim bonus |
depreciation on that property; and |
(iv) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of a percentage other |
than 30%, 50% or 100% of the adjusted basis |
was taken in a taxable year ending on or after |
December 31, 2021, "x" equals "y" multiplied |
by 100 times the percentage bonus depreciation |
on the property (that is, 100(bonus%)) and |
then divided by 100 times 1 minus the |
percentage bonus depreciation on the property |
(that is, 100(1-bonus%)). |
The aggregate amount deducted under this |
subparagraph in all taxable years for any one piece of |
property may not exceed the amount of the bonus |
depreciation deduction taken on that property on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return under subsection |
(k) of Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code. This |
subparagraph (O) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(P) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons, or |
|
otherwise disposes of property for which the taxpayer |
was required in any taxable year to make an addition |
modification under subparagraph (D-5), then an amount |
equal to that addition modification. |
If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (O) and for which the taxpayer was |
required in any taxable year to make an addition |
modification under subparagraph (D-5), then an amount |
equal to that addition modification. |
The taxpayer is allowed to take the deduction |
under this subparagraph only once with respect to any |
one piece of property. |
This subparagraph (P) is exempt from the |
provisions of Section 250; |
(Q) The amount of (i) any interest income (net of |
the deductions allocable thereto) taken into account |
for the taxable year with respect to a transaction |
with a taxpayer that is required to make an addition |
modification with respect to such transaction under |
Section 203(a)(2)(D-17), 203(b)(2)(E-12), |
203(c)(2)(G-12), or 203(d)(2)(D-7), but not to exceed |
the amount of such addition modification and (ii) any |
income from intangible property (net of the deductions |
allocable thereto) taken into account for the taxable |
|
year with respect to a transaction with a taxpayer |
that is required to make an addition modification with |
respect to such transaction under Section |
203(a)(2)(D-18), 203(b)(2)(E-13), 203(c)(2)(G-13), or |
203(d)(2)(D-8), but not to exceed the amount of such |
addition modification. This subparagraph (Q) is exempt |
from Section 250; |
(R) An amount equal to the interest income taken |
into account for the taxable year (net of the |

member of the taxpayer's unitary business group but |
for the fact that the foreign person's business |
activity outside the United States is 80% or more of |
that person's total business activity and (ii) for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304, but |
not to exceed the addition modification required to be |
made for the same taxable year under Section |
203(d)(2)(D-7) for interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to the same person. |
|
This subparagraph (R) is exempt from Section 250; |
(S) An amount equal to the income from intangible |
property taken into account for the taxable year (net |
of the deductions allocable thereto) with respect to |
transactions with (i) a foreign person who would be a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group but |
for the fact that the foreign person's business |
activity outside the United States is 80% or more of |
that person's total business activity and (ii) for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304, but |
not to exceed the addition modification required to be |
made for the same taxable year under Section |
203(d)(2)(D-8) for intangible expenses and costs paid, |
accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to the |
same person. This subparagraph (S) is exempt from |
Section 250; |
(T) For taxable years ending on or after December |
31, 2011, in the case of a taxpayer who was required to |
add back any insurance premiums under Section |
203(d)(2)(D-9), such taxpayer may elect to subtract |
|
that part of a reimbursement received from the |
insurance company equal to the amount of the expense |
or loss (including expenses incurred by the insurance |
company) that would have been taken into account as a |
deduction for federal income tax purposes if the |
expense or loss had been uninsured. If a taxpayer |
makes the election provided for by this subparagraph |
(T), the insurer to which the premiums were paid must |
add back to income the amount subtracted by the |
taxpayer pursuant to this subparagraph (T). This |
subparagraph (T) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; and |
(U) For taxable years beginning on or after |
January 1, 2023, for any cannabis establishment |
operating in this State and licensed under the |
Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act or any cannabis |
cultivation center or medical cannabis dispensing |
organization operating in this State and licensed |
under the Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis |
Program Act, an amount equal to the deductions that |
were disallowed under Section 280E of the Internal |
Revenue Code for the taxable year and that would not be |
added back under this subsection. The provisions of |
this subparagraph (U) are exempt from the provisions |
of Section 250. |
|
(e) Gross income; adjusted gross income; taxable income. |
(1) In general. Subject to the provisions of paragraph |
(2) and subsection (b)(3), for purposes of this Section |
and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted |
gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall |
mean the amount of gross income, adjusted gross income or |
taxable income properly reportable for federal income tax |
purposes for the taxable year under the provisions of the |
Internal Revenue Code. Taxable income may be less than |
zero. However, for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 1986, net operating loss carryforwards from |
taxable years ending prior to December 31, 1986, may not |
exceed the sum of federal taxable income for the taxable |
year before net operating loss deduction, plus the excess |
of addition modifications over subtraction modifications |
for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to |
December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount |
in excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as |
defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the |
Internal Revenue Code, provided that when taxable income |
of a corporation (other than a Subchapter S corporation), |
trust, or estate is less than zero and addition |
modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph |
(E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or |
subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for |
trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an |
|
addition modification must be made under those |
subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the |
taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is |
applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or |
under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection |
(e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the |
Internal Revenue Code. |
(2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of |
this subsection, the taxable income properly reportable |
for federal income tax purposes shall mean: |
(A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case |
of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed |
by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life |
insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of |
distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus |
accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the |
Internal Revenue Code; |
(B) Certain other insurance companies. In the case |
of mutual insurance companies subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
insurance company taxable income; |
(C) Regulated investment companies. In the case of |
a regulated investment company subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 852 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
investment company taxable income; |
(D) Real estate investment trusts. In the case of |
|
a real estate investment trust subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
real estate investment trust taxable income; |
(E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a |
corporation which is a member of an affiliated group |
of corporations filing a consolidated income tax |
return for the taxable year for federal income tax |
purposes, taxable income determined as if such |
corporation had filed a separate return for federal |
income tax purposes for the taxable year and each |
preceding taxable year for which it was a member of an |
affiliated group. For purposes of this subparagraph, |
the taxpayer's separate taxable income shall be |
determined as if the election provided by Section |
243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code had been in |
effect for all such years; |
(F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative |
corporation or association, the taxable income of such |
organization determined in accordance with the |
provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the |
Internal Revenue Code, but without regard to the |
prohibition against offsetting losses from patronage |
activities against income from nonpatronage |
activities; except that a cooperative corporation or |
association may make an election to follow its federal |
income tax treatment of patronage losses and |
|
nonpatronage losses. In the event such election is |
made, such losses shall be computed and carried over |
in a manner consistent with subsection (a) of Section |
207 of this Act and apportioned by the apportionment |
factor reported by the cooperative on its Illinois |
income tax return filed for the taxable year in which |
the losses are incurred. The election shall be |
effective for all taxable years with original returns |
due on or after the date of the election. In addition, |
the cooperative may file an amended return or returns, |
as allowed under this Act, to provide that the |
election shall be effective for losses incurred or |
carried forward for taxable years occurring prior to |
the date of the election. Once made, the election may |
only be revoked upon approval of the Director. The |
Department shall adopt rules setting forth |
requirements for documenting the elections and any |
resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be |
used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke |
elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of |
existing law; |
(G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i) |
a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in |
effect an election for the taxable year under Section |
1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income |
of such corporation determined in accordance with |
|
Section 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except |
that taxable income shall take into account those |
items which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the |
Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and |
(ii) a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in |
effect a federal election to opt out of the provisions |
of the Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have |
applied instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules |
as in effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of |
such corporation determined in accordance with the |
federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, |
1982; and |
(H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership, |
taxable income determined in accordance with Section |
703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable |
income shall take into account those items which are |
required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated |
but which would be taken into account by an individual |
in calculating his taxable income. |
(3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of |
asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the |
contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or |
business has been classified as business income and in a |
later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then |
all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later |
year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years |
|
related to that asset or business that generated the |
non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as |
business income in the year of the disposition of the |
asset or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to |
Illinois using the greater of the apportionment fraction |
computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act |
for the taxable year or the average of the apportionment |
fractions computed for the business under Section 304 of |
this Act for the taxable year and for the 2 immediately |
preceding taxable years. |
(f) Valuation limitation amount. |
(1) In general. The valuation limitation amount |
referred to in subsections (a)(2)(G), (c)(2)(I) and |
(d)(2)(E) is an amount equal to: |
(A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable |
under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the |
Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of |
which such gain was reported for the taxable year; |
plus |
(B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1, |
1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of |
capital gain) for all property in respect of which |
such gain was reported for federal income tax purposes |
for the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for |
|
the taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount |
of such gain included in the amount determined under |
subsection (a)(2)(F) or (c)(2)(H). |
(2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount. |
(A) If the fair market value of property referred |
to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on |
August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amount for such property is the lesser of (i) the |
excess of such fair market value over the taxpayer's |
basis (for determining gain) for such property on that |
date (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in |
effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized |
and reportable for federal income tax purposes in |
respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of |
such property. |
(B) If the fair market value of property referred |
to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on |
August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amount for such property is that amount which bears |
the same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of |
the property for federal income tax purposes for the |
taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in |
that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the |
property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of |
full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding |
period for the property. |
|
(C) The Department shall prescribe such |
regulations as may be necessary to carry out the |
purposes of this paragraph. |
(g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided |
otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item |
to be deducted more than once. |
(h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by |
this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on |
the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into |
account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or |
taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable |
year, or in the amount of such items entering into the |
computation of base income and net income under this Act for |
such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of |
August 1, 1969 or otherwise. |

Section 15-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing |
Section 18-173 as follows: |
|
(35 ILCS 200/18-173) |
Sec. 18-173. Housing opportunity area abatement program. |
(a) For the purpose of promoting access to housing near |
work and in order to promote economic diversity throughout |
Illinois and to alleviate the concentration of low-income |
households in areas of high poverty, a housing opportunity |
area tax abatement program is created. |
(b) As used in this Section: |
"Housing authority" means either a housing authority |
created under the Housing Authorities Act or other government |
agency that is authorized by the United States government |
under the United States Housing Act of 1937 to administer a |
housing choice voucher program, or the authorized agent of |
such a housing authority that is authorized to act upon that |
authority's behalf. |
"Housing choice voucher" means a tenant voucher issued by |
a housing authority under Section 8 of the United States |
Housing Act of 1937 and a tenant voucher converted to a |
project-based voucher by a housing authority. |
"Housing opportunity area" means a census tract where less |
than 10% of the residents live below the poverty level, as |
defined by the United States government and determined by the |
most recent United States census, that is located within a |
qualified township, except for census tracts located within |
any township that is located wholly within a municipality with |
|
1,000,000 or more inhabitants. A census tract that is located |
within a township that is located wholly within a municipality |
with 1,000,000 or more inhabitants is considered a housing |
opportunity area if less than 12% of the residents of the |
census tract live below the poverty level. |
"Housing opportunity unit" means a dwelling unit located |
in residential property that is located in a housing |
opportunity area, that is owned by the applicant, and that is |
rented to and occupied by a tenant who is participating in a |
housing choice voucher program administered by a housing |
authority as of January 1st of the tax year for which the |
application is made. |
"Qualified units" means the number of housing opportunity |
units located in the property with the limitation that no more |
than 2 units or 20% of the total units contained within the |
property, whichever is greater, may be considered qualified |
units. Further, no unit may be considered qualified unless the |
property in which it is contained is in substantial compliance |
with local building codes, and, moreover, no unit may be |
considered qualified unless it meets the United States |
Department of Housing and Urban Development's housing quality |
standards as of the most recent housing authority inspection. |
"Qualified township" means a township located within a |
county with 200,000 or more inhabitants whose tax capacity |
exceeds 80% of the average tax capacity of the county in which |
it is located, except for townships located within a county |
|
with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, where a qualified township |
means a township whose tax capacity exceeds 115% of the |
average tax capacity of the county except for townships |
located wholly within a municipality with 1,000,000 or more |
inhabitants. All townships located wholly within a |
municipality with 1,000,000 or more inhabitants are considered |
qualified townships. |
"Tax capacity" means the equalized assessed value of all |
taxable real estate located within a township or county |
divided by the total population of that township or county. |
(c) The owner of property located within a housing |
opportunity area who has a housing choice voucher contract |
with a housing authority may apply for a housing opportunity |
area tax abatement by annually submitting an application to |
the housing authority that administers the housing choice |
voucher contract. The application must include the number of |
housing opportunity units as well as the total number of |
dwelling units contained within the property. The owner must, |
under oath, self-certify as to the total number of dwelling |
units in the property and must self-certify that the property |
is in substantial compliance with local building codes. The |
housing authority shall annually determine the number of |
qualified units located within each property for which an |
application is made. |
The housing authority shall establish rules and procedures |
governing the application processes and may charge an |
|
application fee. The county clerk may audit the applications |
to determine that the properties subject to the tax abatement |
meet the requirements of this Section. The determination of |
eligibility of a property for the housing opportunity area |
abatement shall be made annually; however, no property may |
receive an abatement for more than 10 tax years. |
(d) The housing authority shall determine housing |
opportunity areas within its service area and annually deliver |
to the county clerk, in a manner determined by the county |
clerk, a list of all properties containing qualified units |
within that service area by December 31st of the tax year for |
which the property is eligible for abatement; the list shall |
include the number of qualified units and the total number of |
dwelling units for each property. |
The county clerk shall deliver annually to a housing |
authority, upon that housing authority's request, the most |
recent available equalized assessed value for the county as a |
whole and for those taxing districts and townships so |
specified by the requesting housing authority. |
(e) The county clerk shall abate the tax attributed to a |
portion of the property determined to be eligible for a |
housing opportunity area abatement. The portion eligible for |
abatement shall be determined by reducing the equalized |
assessment value by a percentage calculated using the |
following formula: 19% of the equalized assessed value of the |
property multiplied by a fraction where the numerator is the |
|
number of qualified units and denominator is the total number |
of dwelling units located within the property. |
(f) Any municipality, except for municipalities with |
1,000,000 or more inhabitants, may annually petition the |
county clerk to be excluded from a housing opportunity area if |
it is able to demonstrate that more than 2.5% of the total |
residential units located within that municipality are |
occupied by tenants under the housing choice voucher program. |
Properties located within an excluded municipality shall not |
be eligible for the housing opportunity area abatement for the |
tax year in which the petition is made. |
(g) Applicability. This Section applies to tax years 2004 |
through 2034 2024 , unless extended by law. |

Section 20-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing |
Section 21-355 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/21-355) |
Sec. 21-355. Amount of redemption. Any person desiring to |
redeem shall deposit an amount specified in this Section with |
the county clerk of the county in which the property is |
situated, in legal money of the United States, or by cashier's |
check, certified check, post office money order or money order |
|
issued by a financial institution insured by an agency or |
instrumentality of the United States, payable to the county |
clerk of the proper county. The deposit shall be deemed timely |
only if actually received in person at the county clerk's |
office prior to the close of business as defined in Section |
3-2007 of the Counties Code on or before the expiration of the |
period of redemption or by United States mail with a post |
office cancellation mark dated not less than one day prior to |
the expiration of the period of redemption. The deposit shall |
be in an amount equal to the total of the following: |
(a) the certificate amount, which shall include all |
tax principal, special assessments, interest and penalties |
paid by the tax purchaser together with costs and fees of |
sale and fees paid under Sections 21-295 and 21-315 |
through 21-335, except for the nonrefundable $80 fee paid, |
pursuant to Section 21-295, for each item purchased at the |
tax sale; |
(b) the accrued penalty, computed through the date of |
redemption as a percentage of the certificate amount, as |
follows: |
(1) if the redemption occurs on or before the |
expiration of 6 months from the date of sale, the |
certificate amount times the penalty bid at sale; |
(2) if the redemption occurs after 6 months from |
the date of sale, and on or before the expiration of 12 |
months from the date of sale, the certificate amount |
|
times 2 times the penalty bid at sale; |
(3) if the redemption occurs after 12 months from |
the date of sale and on or before the expiration of 18 |
months from the date of sale, the certificate amount |
times 3 times the penalty bid at sale; |
(4) if the redemption occurs after 18 months from |
the date of sale and on or before the expiration of 24 |
months from the date of sale, the certificate amount |
times 4 times the penalty bid at sale; |
(5) if the redemption occurs after 24 months from |
the date of sale and on or before the expiration of 30 |
months from the date of sale, the certificate amount |
times 5 times the penalty bid at sale; |
(6) if the redemption occurs after 30 months from |
the date of sale and on or before the expiration of 36 |
months from the date of sale, the certificate amount |
times 6 times the penalty bid at sale. |
In the event that the property to be redeemed has been |
purchased under Section 21-405 before January 1, 2024, the |
penalty bid shall be 12% per penalty period as set forth in |
subparagraphs (1) through (6) of this subsection (b). The |
changes to this subdivision (b)(6) made by this amendatory |
Act of the 91st General Assembly are not a new enactment, |
but declaratory of existing law. |
For counties with fewer than 3,000,000 inhabitants, if |
the property to be redeemed is property with respect to |
|
which a tax lien or certificate is acquired after January |
1, 2024 by the county as trustee pursuant to Section |
21-90, the penalty bid at sale shall accrue according to |
the penalty periods established in subparagraphs (1) |
through (6) of this subsection (b). |
For counties with more than 3,000,000 inhabitants, if |
If the property to be redeemed is property with respect to |
which a tax lien or certificate is acquired on or after |
January 1, 2024 by the county as trustee pursuant to |
Section 21-90, the penalty bid is 0.75% and shall accrue |
monthly instead of according to the penalty periods |
established in subparagraphs (1) through (6) of this |
subsection (b). |
(c) The total of all taxes, special assessments, |
accrued interest on those taxes and special assessments |
and costs charged in connection with the payment of those |
taxes or special assessments, except for the nonrefundable |
$80 fee paid, pursuant to Section 21-295, for each item |
purchased at the tax sale, which have been paid by the tax |
certificate holder on or after the date those taxes or |
special assessments became delinquent together with 12% |
penalty on each amount so paid for each year or portion |
thereof intervening between the date of that payment and |
the date of redemption. In counties with less than |
3,000,000 inhabitants, however, a tax certificate holder |
may not pay all or part of an installment of a subsequent |
|
tax or special assessment for any year, nor shall any |
tender of such a payment be accepted, until after the |
second or final installment of the subsequent tax or |
special assessment has become delinquent or until after |
the holder of the certificate of purchase has filed a |
petition for a tax deed under Section 22.30. The person |
redeeming shall also pay the amount of interest charged on |
the subsequent tax or special assessment and paid as a |
penalty by the tax certificate holder. This amendatory Act |
of 1995 applies to tax years beginning with the 1995 |
taxes, payable in 1996, and thereafter. |
(d) Any amount paid to redeem a forfeiture occurring |
before January 1, 2024 but after the tax sale together |
with 12% penalty thereon for each year or portion thereof |
intervening between the date of the forfeiture redemption |
and the date of redemption from the sale. |
(e) Any amount paid by the certificate holder for |
redemption of a subsequently occurring tax sale, including |
tax liens or certificates held by the county as trustee, |
pursuant to Section 21-90. |
(f) All fees paid to the county clerk under Section |
22-5. |
(g) All fees paid to the registrar of titles incident |
to registering the tax certificate in compliance with the |
Registered Titles (Torrens) Act. |
(h) All fees paid to the circuit clerk and the |
|
sheriff, a licensed or registered private detective, or |
the coroner in connection with the filing of the petition |
for tax deed and service of notices under Sections 22-15 |
through 22-30 and 22-40 in addition to (1) a fee of $35 if |
a petition for tax deed has been filed, which fee shall be |
posted to the tax judgement, sale, redemption, and |
forfeiture record, to be paid to the purchaser or his or |
her assignee; (2) a fee of $4 if a notice under Section |
22-5 has been filed, which fee shall be posted to the tax |
judgment, sale, redemption, and forfeiture record, to be |
paid to the purchaser or his or her assignee; (3) all costs |
paid to record a lis pendens notice in connection with |
filing a petition under this Code; and (4) if a petition |
for tax deed has been filed, all fees up to $150 per |
redemption paid to a registered or licensed title |
insurance company or title insurance agent for a title |
search to identify all owners, parties interested, and |
occupants of the property, to be paid to the purchaser or |
his or her assignee. The fees in (1) and (2) of this |
paragraph (h) shall be exempt from the posting |
requirements of Section 21-360. The costs incurred in |
causing notices to be served by a licensed or registered |
private detective under Section 22-15, may not exceed the |
amount that the sheriff would be authorized by law to |
charge if those notices had been served by the sheriff. |
(i) All fees paid for publication of notice of the tax |
|
sale in accordance with Section 22-20. |
(j) All sums paid to any county, city, village or |
incorporated town for reimbursement under Section 22-35. |
(k) All costs and expenses of receivership under |
Section 21-410, to the extent that these costs and |
expenses exceed any income from the property in question, |
if the costs and expenditures have been approved by the |
court appointing the receiver and a certified copy of the |
order or approval is filed and posted by the certificate |
holder with the county clerk. Only actual costs expended |
may be posted on the tax judgment, sale, redemption and |
forfeiture record. |

Sec. 20-15. Information on bill or separate statement. |
There shall be printed on each bill, or on a separate slip |
which shall be mailed with the bill: |
(a) a statement itemizing the rate at which taxes have |
been extended for each of the taxing districts in the |
county in whose district the property is located, and in |
|
those counties utilizing electronic data processing |
equipment the dollar amount of tax due from the person |
assessed allocable to each of those taxing districts, |
including a separate statement of the dollar amount of tax |
due which is allocable to a tax levied under the Illinois |
Local Library Act or to any other tax levied by a |
municipality or township for public library purposes, |
(b) a separate statement for each of the taxing |
districts of the dollar amount of tax due which is |
allocable to a tax levied under the Illinois Pension Code |
or to any other tax levied by a municipality or township |
for public pension or retirement purposes, |
(b-5) a list of each tax increment financing (TIF) |
district in which the property is located and the dollar |
amount of tax due that is allocable to the TIF district, |
(c) the total tax rate, |
(d) the total amount of tax due, and |
(e) the amount by which the total tax and the tax |
allocable to each taxing district differs from the |
taxpayer's last prior tax bill. |
The county treasurer shall ensure that only those taxing |
districts in which a parcel of property is located shall be |
listed on the bill for that property. |
In all counties the statement shall also provide: |
(1) the property index number or other suitable |
description, |
|
(2) the assessment of the property, |
(3) the statutory amount of each homestead exemption |
applied to the property, |
(4) the assessed value of the property after |
application of all homestead exemptions, |
(5) the equalization factors imposed by the county and |
by the Department, and |
(6) the equalized assessment resulting from the |
application of the equalization factors to the basic |
assessment. |
In all counties which do not classify property for |
purposes of taxation, for property on which a single family |
residence is situated the statement shall also include a |
statement to reflect the fair cash value determined for the |
property. In all counties which classify property for purposes |
of taxation in accordance with Section 4 of Article IX of the |
Illinois Constitution, for parcels of residential property in |
the lowest assessment classification the statement shall also |
include a statement to reflect the fair cash value determined |
for the property. |
In all counties, the statement must include information |
that certain taxpayers may be eligible for tax exemptions, |
abatements, and other assistance programs and that, for more |
information, taxpayers should consult with the office of their |
township or county assessor and with the Illinois Department |
of Revenue. For bills mailed on or after January 1, 2026, the |

create a mandatory statutory duty. They are not merely |
directory or discretionary. The failure or neglect of the |
collector to mail the bill, or the failure of the taxpayer to |
receive the bill, shall not affect the validity of any tax, or |
the liability for the payment of any tax. |

Section 30-25 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/30-25) |
Sec. 30-25. Distributions from account. |
(a) At the direction of the corporate authorities of a |
taxing district, the treasurer of the taxing district shall |
disburse the amounts held in the tax reimbursement account. |
Unless the taxing district has divided the moneys as provided |
in subsection (b), disbursements shall be made to all of the |
owners of taxable homestead property within the taxing |
|
district. Each owner of taxable homestead property shall |
receive a proportionate share of the total disbursement based |
on the amount of ad valorem taxes on taxable homestead |
property paid by the owner to the taxing district under the |
most recent tax bill. |
(b) The corporate authorities of a taxing district may |
direct the treasurer to divide the moneys deposited into the |
account into 2 separate pools to be designated the homestead |
property pool and the commercial or industrial property pool. |
The amount to be deposited into each pool shall be determined |
by the corporate authorities of the taxing district, except |
that at least 50% of the moneys in the account shall be |
deposited into the homestead property pool. The treasurer |
shall disburse the amounts held in each pool in the tax |
reimbursement account at the direction of the corporate |
authorities. Disbursements from the homestead property pool |
shall be made to all of the owners of taxable homestead |
property within the taxing district. Each owner of taxable |
homestead property shall receive a proportionate share of the |
total disbursement from the pool based on the amount of ad |
valorem taxes on taxable homestead property paid by the owner |
to the taxing district under the most recent tax bill. |
Disbursements from the commercial or industrial property pool |
shall be made to all of the owners of taxable commercial or |
industrial property, except (i) those owners whose property is |
located within a tax increment financing district , (ii) those |
|
owners who received a tax incentive as a result of a tax |
incentivized development established by an intergovernmental |
agreement to which the taxing district is a party, or (iii) |
those owners whose property is classified as an apartment |
building. Each eligible owner of taxable commercial or |
industrial property shall receive a proportionate share of the |
total disbursement from the pool based on the amount of ad |
valorem taxes on taxable commercial or industrial property |
paid by the owner to the taxing district under the most recent |
tax bill. |
(c) In determining the proportionate share of each owner |
of homestead property, the numerator shall be the amount of |
taxes on homestead property paid by that owner to the taxing |
district under the most recent tax bill, and the denominator |
shall be the aggregate total of all taxes on homestead |
property paid by all owners to the taxing district under the |
most recent tax bills. |
(d) In determining the proportionate share of each owner |
of commercial or industrial property, the numerator shall be |
the amount of taxes on commercial or industrial property paid |
by that owner to the taxing district under the most recent tax |
bill, and the denominator shall be the aggregate total of all |
taxes on commercial or industrial property paid by all owners |
to the taxing district under the most recent tax bills less |
taxes paid on commercial or industrial property located in a |
tax increment financing district , taxes paid on commercial or |
|
industrial property for which the owner received a tax |
incentive as a result of a tax incentivized development |
established by an intergovernmental agreement to which the |
taxing district is a party, and taxes paid on an apartment |
building. |
(e) As used in this Section: |

taxing district to a commercial or industrial property owner |
to promote economic development when, but for the advancement |
of the funds, the development would not be financially |
feasible. |
"Tax incentivized development" means an economic |
development project established by intergovernmental agreement |
whereby a taxing district advances qualified redevelopment |
costs to a commercial or industrial property owner. |

authority of a Financial Oversight Panel pursuant to Article |
1H of the School Code, and except as provided in Section 18-17, |
shall annually certify to the county clerk, on or before the |

ordinance adopted on or before June 30, 2024, amend or |

Sec. 18-190. Direct referendum; new rate or increased |
limiting rate. |
(a) If a new rate is authorized by statute to be imposed |
without referendum or is subject to a backdoor referendum, as |
defined in Section 28-2 of the Election Code, the governing |
body of the affected taxing district before levying the new |
|
rate shall submit the new rate to direct referendum under the |
provisions of this Section and of Article 28 of the Election |
Code. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the levies |
authorized by Sections 21-110 and 21-110.1 of the Illinois |
Pension Code shall not be considered new rates; however, |
nothing in this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly |
authorizes a taxing district to increase its limiting rate or |
its aggregate extension without first obtaining referendum |
approval as provided in this Section. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of law, the levy authorized by Section 18-17 |
is considered part of the annual corporate extension for the |
taxing district and is not considered a new rate. |
Notwithstanding the provisions, requirements, or limitations |
of any other law, any tax levied for the 2005 levy year and all |
subsequent levy years by any taxing district subject to this |
Law may be extended at a rate exceeding the rate established |
for that tax by referendum or statute, provided that the rate |
does not exceed the statutory ceiling above which the tax is |
not authorized to be further increased either by referendum or |
in any other manner. Notwithstanding the provisions, |
requirements, or limitations of any other law, all taxing |
districts subject to this Law shall follow the provisions of |
this Section whenever seeking referenda approval after March |
21, 2006 to (i) levy a new tax rate authorized by statute or |
(ii) increase the limiting rate applicable to the taxing |
district. All taxing districts subject to this Law are |
|
authorized to seek referendum approval of each proposition |
described and set forth in this Section. |
The proposition seeking to obtain referendum approval to |
levy a new tax rate as authorized in clause (i) shall be in |
substantially the following form: |
Shall ... (insert legal name, number, if any, and |
county or counties of taxing district and geographic or |
other common name by which a school or community college |
district is known and referred to), Illinois, be |
authorized to levy a new tax for ... purposes and have an |
additional tax of ...% of the equalized assessed value of |
the taxable property therein extended for such purposes? |
The votes must be recorded as "Yes" or "No". |
The proposition seeking to obtain referendum approval to |
increase the limiting rate as authorized in clause (ii) shall |
be in substantially the following form: |
Shall the limiting rate under the Property Tax |
Extension Limitation Law for ... (insert legal name, |
number, if any, and county or counties of taxing district |
and geographic or other common name by which a school or |
community college district is known and referred to), |
Illinois, be increased by an additional amount equal to |
...% above the limiting rate for the purpose of...(insert |
purpose) for levy year ... (insert the most recent levy |
year for which the limiting rate of the taxing district is |
known at the time the submission of the proposition is |
|
initiated by the taxing district) and be equal to ...% of |
the equalized assessed value of the taxable property |
therein for levy year(s) (insert each levy year for which |
the increase will be applicable, which years must be |
consecutive and may not exceed 4)? |
The votes must be recorded as "Yes" or "No". |
The ballot for any proposition submitted pursuant to this |
Section shall have printed thereon, but not as a part of the |
proposition submitted, only the following supplemental |
information (which shall be supplied to the election authority |
by the taxing district) in substantially the following form: |
(1) The approximate amount of taxes extendable at the |
most recently extended limiting rate is $..., and the |
approximate amount of taxes extendable if the proposition |
is approved is $.... |
(2) For the ... (insert the first levy year for which |
the new rate or increased limiting rate will be |
applicable) levy year the approximate amount of the |
additional tax extendable against property containing a |
single family residence and having a fair market value at |
the time of the referendum of $100,000 is estimated to be |
$.... |
(3) Based upon an average annual percentage increase |
(or decrease) in the market value of such property of %... |
(insert percentage equal to the average annual percentage |
increase or decrease for the prior 3 levy years, at the |
|
time the submission of the proposition is initiated by the |
taxing district, in the amount of (A) the equalized |
assessed value of the taxable property in the taxing |
district less (B) the new property included in the |
equalized assessed value), the approximate amount of the |
additional tax extendable against such property for the |
... levy year is estimated to be $... and for the ... levy |
year is estimated to be $ .... |
(4) If the proposition is approved, the aggregate |
extension for ... (insert each levy year for which the |
increase will apply) will be determined by the limiting |
rate set forth in the proposition, rather than the |
otherwise applicable limiting rate calculated under the |
provisions of the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law |
(commonly known as the Property Tax Cap Law). |
The approximate amount of taxes extendable shown in paragraph |
(1) shall be computed upon the last known equalized assessed |
value of taxable property in the taxing district (at the time |
the submission of the proposition is initiated by the taxing |
district). Paragraph (3) shall be included only if the |
increased limiting rate will be applicable for more than one |
levy year and shall list each levy year for which the increased |
limiting rate will be applicable. The additional tax shown for |
each levy year shall be the approximate dollar amount of the |
increase over the amount of the most recently completed |
extension at the time the submission of the proposition is |
|
initiated by the taxing district. The approximate amount of |
the additional taxes extendable shown in paragraphs (2) and |
(3) shall be calculated by multiplying $100,000 (the fair |
market value of the property without regard to any property |
tax exemptions) by (i) the percentage level of assessment |
prescribed for that property by statute, or by ordinance of |
the county board in counties that classify property for |
purposes of taxation in accordance with Section 4 of Article |
IX of the Illinois Constitution; (ii) the most recent final |
equalization factor certified to the county clerk by the |
Department of Revenue at the time the taxing district |
initiates the submission of the proposition to the electors; |
and (iii) either the new rate or the amount by which the |
limiting rate is to be increased. This amendatory Act of the |
97th General Assembly is intended to clarify the existing |
requirements of this Section, and shall not be construed to |
validate any prior non-compliant referendum language. |
Paragraph (4) shall be included if the proposition concerns a |
limiting rate increase but shall not be included if the |
proposition concerns a new rate. Any notice required to be |
published in connection with the submission of the proposition |
shall also contain this supplemental information and shall not |
contain any other supplemental information regarding the |
proposition. Any error, miscalculation, or inaccuracy in |
computing any amount set forth on the ballot and in the notice |
that is not deliberate shall not invalidate or affect the |
|
validity of any proposition approved. Notice of the referendum |
shall be published and posted as otherwise required by law, |
and the submission of the proposition shall be initiated as |
provided by law. |
If a majority of all ballots cast on the proposition are in |
favor of the proposition, the following provisions shall be |
applicable to the extension of taxes for the taxing district: |
(A) a new tax rate shall be first effective for the |
levy year in which the new rate is approved; |
(B) if the proposition provides for a new tax rate, |
the taxing district is authorized to levy a tax after the |
canvass of the results of the referendum by the election |
authority for the purposes for which the tax is |
authorized; |
(C) a limiting rate increase shall be first effective |
for the levy year in which the limiting rate increase is |
approved, provided that the taxing district may elect to |
have a limiting rate increase be effective for the levy |
year prior to the levy year in which the limiting rate |
increase is approved unless the extension of taxes for the |
prior levy year occurs 30 days or less after the canvass of |
the results of the referendum by the election authority in |
any county in which the taxing district is located; |
(D) in order for the limiting rate increase to be |
first effective for the levy year prior to the levy year of |
the referendum, the taxing district must certify its |
|
election to have the limiting rate increase be effective |
for the prior levy year to the clerk of each county in |
which the taxing district is located not more than 2 days |
after the date the results of the referendum are canvassed |
by the election authority; and |
(E) if the proposition provides for a limiting rate |
increase, the increase may be effective regardless of |
whether the proposition is approved before or after the |
taxing district adopts or files its levy for any levy |
year. |
Rates required to extend taxes on levies subject to a |
backdoor referendum in each year there is a levy are not new |
rates or rate increases under this Section if a levy has been |
made for the fund in one or more of the preceding 3 levy years. |
Changes made by this amendatory Act of 1997 to this Section in |
reference to rates required to extend taxes on levies subject |
to a backdoor referendum in each year there is a levy are |
declarative of existing law and not a new enactment. |
(b) Whenever other applicable law authorizes a taxing |
district subject to the limitation with respect to its |
aggregate extension provided for in this Law to issue bonds or |
other obligations either without referendum or subject to |
backdoor referendum, the taxing district may elect for each |
separate bond issuance to submit the question of the issuance |
of the bonds or obligations directly to the voters of the |
taxing district, and if the referendum passes the taxing |
|
district is not required to comply with any backdoor |
referendum procedures or requirements set forth in the other |
applicable law. The direct referendum shall be initiated by |
ordinance or resolution of the governing body of the taxing |
district, and the question shall be certified to the proper |
election authorities in accordance with the provisions of the |
Election Code. |

Sec. 17-3.2. Additional or supplemental budget. |
(a) Whenever the voters of a school district have voted in |
favor of an increase in the annual tax rate for educational or |
operations and maintenance purposes or both at an election |
held after the adoption of the annual school budget for any |
fiscal year, the board may adopt or pass during that fiscal |
year an additional or supplemental budget under the sole |
authority of this Section by a vote of a majority of the full |
membership of the board, any other provision of this Article |
to the contrary notwithstanding, in and by which such |
additional or supplemental budget the board shall appropriate |
such additional sums of money as it may find necessary to |
defray expenses and liabilities of that district to be |
|
incurred for educational or operations and maintenance |
purposes or both of the district during that fiscal year, but |
not in excess of the additional funds estimated to be |
available by virtue of such voted increase in the annual tax |
rate for educational or operations and maintenance purposes or |
both. Such additional or supplemental budget shall be regarded |
as an amendment of the annual school budget for the fiscal year |
in which it is adopted, and the board may levy the additional |
tax for educational or operations and maintenance purposes or |
both to equal the amount of the additional sums of money |
appropriated in that additional or supplemental budget, |
immediately. |
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, LaMoille |
Community Unit School District #303 may adopt an additional or |
supplemental budget in connection with an amended or |
supplemental levy adopted under Section 18-17 of the Property |
Tax Code without receiving the approval of the voters as |
provided in subsection (a). This subsection (b) is inoperative |
on and after January 1, 2025. |

(g) For amounts deducted or withheld after December 31, |
2009, a taxpayer who makes an election under subsection (f) of |
|
Section 5-15 of the Economic Development for a Growing Economy |
Tax Credit Act for a taxable year shall be allowed a credit |
against payments due under this Section for amounts withheld |
during the first calendar year beginning after the end of that |
taxable year equal to the amount of the credit for the |
incremental income tax attributable to full-time employees of |
the taxpayer awarded to the taxpayer by the Department of |
Commerce and Economic Opportunity under the Economic |
Development for a Growing Economy Tax Credit Act for the |
taxable year and credits not previously claimed and allowed to |
be carried forward under Section 211(4) of this Act as |
provided in subsection (f) of Section 5-15 of the Economic |
Development for a Growing Economy Tax Credit Act. The credit |
or credits may not reduce the taxpayer's obligation for any |
payment due under this Section to less than zero. If the amount |
of the credit or credits exceeds the total payments due under |
this Section with respect to amounts withheld during the |
calendar year, the excess may be carried forward and applied |
against the taxpayer's liability under this Section in the |
succeeding calendar years as allowed to be carried forward |
under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act. The credit or |
credits shall be applied to the earliest year for which there |
is a tax liability. If there are credits from more than one |
taxable year that are available to offset a liability, the |
earlier credit shall be applied first. Each employer who |
deducts and withholds or is required to deduct and withhold |
|
tax under this Act and who retains income tax withholdings |
under subsection (f) of Section 5-15 of the Economic |
Development for a Growing Economy Tax Credit Act must make a |

Department those withheld taxes not retained by the taxpayer. |
For purposes of this subsection (g), the term taxpayer shall |
include taxpayer and members of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group as defined under paragraph (27) of subsection |
(a) of Section 1501 of this Act. This Section is exempt from |
the provisions of Section 250 of this Act. No credit awarded |
under the Economic Development for a Growing Economy Tax |
Credit Act for agreements entered into on or after January 1, |
2015 may be credited against payments due under this Section. |
(g-1) For amounts deducted or withheld after December 31, |
2024, a taxpayer who makes an election under the Reimagining |
Energy and Vehicles in Illinois Act shall be allowed a credit |
against payments due under this Section for amounts withheld |
during the first quarterly reporting period beginning after |
the certificate is issued equal to the portion of the REV |
Illinois Credit attributable to the incremental income tax |
attributable to new employees and retained employees as |
certified by the Department of Commerce and Economic |
Opportunity pursuant to an agreement with the taxpayer under |
the Reimagining Energy and Vehicles in Illinois Act for the |
|
taxable year. The credit or credits may not reduce the |
taxpayer's obligation for any payment due under this Section |
to less than zero. If the amount of the credit or credits |
exceeds the total payments due under this Section with respect |
to amounts withheld during the quarterly reporting period, the |
excess may be carried forward and applied against the |
taxpayer's liability under this Section in the succeeding |
quarterly reporting period as allowed to be carried forward |
under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act. The credit or |
credits shall be applied to the earliest quarterly reporting |
period for which there is a tax liability. If there are credits |
from more than one quarterly reporting period that are |
available to offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be |
applied first. Each employer who deducts and withholds or is |
required to deduct and withhold tax under this Act and who |
retains income tax withholdings this subsection must make a |
return with respect to such taxes and retained amounts in the |
form and manner that the Department, by rule, requires and pay |
to the Department or to a depositary designated by the |
Department those withheld taxes not retained by the taxpayer. |
For purposes of this subsection (g-1), the term taxpayer shall |
include taxpayer and members of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group as defined under paragraph (27) of subsection |
(a) of Section 1501 of this Act. This Section is exempt from |
the provisions of Section 250 of this Act. |
(g-2) For amounts deducted or withheld after December 31, |
|
2024, a taxpayer who makes an election under the Manufacturing |
Illinois Chips for Real Opportunity (MICRO) Act shall be |
allowed a credit against payments due under this Section for |
amounts withheld during the first quarterly reporting period |
beginning after the certificate is issued equal to the portion |
of the MICRO Illinois Credit attributable to the incremental |
income tax attributable to new employees and retained |
employees as certified by the Department of Commerce and |
Economic Opportunity pursuant to an agreement with the |
taxpayer under the Manufacturing Illinois Chips for Real |
Opportunity (MICRO) Act for the taxable year. The credit or |
credits may not reduce the taxpayer's obligation for any |
payment due under this Section to less than zero. If the amount |
of the credit or credits exceeds the total payments due under |
this Section with respect to amounts withheld during the |
quarterly reporting period, the excess may be carried forward |
and applied against the taxpayer's liability under this |
Section in the succeeding quarterly reporting period as |
allowed to be carried forward under paragraph (4) of Section |
211 of this Act. The credit or credits shall be applied to the |
earliest quarterly reporting period for which there is a tax |
liability. If there are credits from more than one quarterly |
reporting period that are available to offset a liability, the |
earlier credit shall be applied first. Each employer who |
deducts and withholds or is required to deduct and withhold |
tax under this Act and who retains income tax withholdings |
|
this subsection must make a return with respect to such taxes |
and retained amounts in the form and manner that the |
Department, by rule, requires and pay to the Department or to a |
depositary designated by the Department those withheld taxes |
not retained by the taxpayer. For purposes of this subsection, |
the term taxpayer shall include taxpayer and members of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group as defined under paragraph |
(27) of subsection (a) of Section 1501 of this Act. This |
Section is exempt from the provisions of Section 250 of this |
Act. |
(h) An employer may claim a credit against payments due |
under this Section for amounts withheld during the first |
calendar year ending after the date on which a tax credit |
certificate was issued under Section 35 of the Small Business |
Job Creation Tax Credit Act. The credit shall be equal to the |
amount shown on the certificate, but may not reduce the |
taxpayer's obligation for any payment due under this Section |
to less than zero. If the amount of the credit exceeds the |
total payments due under this Section with respect to amounts |
withheld during the calendar year, the excess may be carried |
forward and applied against the taxpayer's liability under |
this Section in the 5 succeeding calendar years. The credit |
shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is a tax |
liability. If there are credits from more than one calendar |
year that are available to offset a liability, the earlier |
credit shall be applied first. This Section is exempt from the |
|
provisions of Section 250 of this Act. |
(i) Each employer with 50 or fewer full-time equivalent |
employees during the reporting period may claim a credit |
against the payments due under this Section for each qualified |
employee in an amount equal to the maximum credit allowable. |
The credit may be taken against payments due for reporting |
periods that begin on or after January 1, 2020, and end on or |
before December 31, 2027. An employer may not claim a credit |
for an employee who has worked fewer than 90 consecutive days |
immediately preceding the reporting period; however, such |
credits may accrue during that 90-day period and be claimed |
against payments under this Section for future reporting |
periods after the employee has worked for the employer at |
least 90 consecutive days. In no event may the credit exceed |
the employer's liability for the reporting period. Each |
employer who deducts and withholds or is required to deduct |
and withhold tax under this Act and who retains income tax |
withholdings under this subsection must make a return with |
respect to such taxes and retained amounts in the form and |
manner that the Department, by rule, requires and pay to the |
Department or to a depositary designated by the Department |
those withheld taxes not retained by the employer. |
For each reporting period, the employer may not claim a |
credit or credits for more employees than the number of |
employees making less than the minimum or reduced wage for the |
current calendar year during the last reporting period of the |
|
preceding calendar year. Notwithstanding any other provision |
of this subsection, an employer shall not be eligible for |
credits for a reporting period unless the average wage paid by |
the employer per employee for all employees making less than |
$55,000 during the reporting period is greater than the |
average wage paid by the employer per employee for all |
employees making less than $55,000 during the same reporting |
period of the prior calendar year. |
For purposes of this subsection (i): |
"Compensation paid in Illinois" has the meaning ascribed |
to that term under Section 304(a)(2)(B) of this Act. |
"Employer" and "employee" have the meaning ascribed to |
those terms in the Minimum Wage Law, except that "employee" |
also includes employees who work for an employer with fewer |
than 4 employees. Employers that operate more than one |
establishment pursuant to a franchise agreement or that |
constitute members of a unitary business group shall aggregate |
their employees for purposes of determining eligibility for |
the credit. |
"Full-time equivalent employees" means the ratio of the |
number of paid hours during the reporting period and the |
number of working hours in that period. |
"Maximum credit" means the percentage listed below of the |
difference between the amount of compensation paid in Illinois |
to employees who are paid not more than the required minimum |
wage reduced by the amount of compensation paid in Illinois to |
|
employees who were paid less than the current required minimum |
wage during the reporting period prior to each increase in the |
required minimum wage on January 1. If an employer pays an |
employee more than the required minimum wage and that employee |
previously earned less than the required minimum wage, the |
employer may include the portion that does not exceed the |
required minimum wage as compensation paid in Illinois to |
employees who are paid not more than the required minimum |
wage. |
(1) 25% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2020 and ending on or before December 31, 2020; |
(2) 21% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2021 and ending on or before December 31, 2021; |
(3) 17% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2022 and ending on or before December 31, 2022; |
(4) 13% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2023 and ending on or before December 31, 2023; |
(5) 9% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2024 and ending on or before December 31, 2024; |
(6) 5% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2025 and ending on or before December 31, 2025. |
The amount computed under this subsection may continue to |
be claimed for reporting periods beginning on or after January |
1, 2026 and: |
(A) ending on or before December 31, 2026 for |
employers with more than 5 employees; or |
|

"Qualified employee" means an employee who is paid not |
more than the required minimum wage and has an average wage |
paid per hour by the employer during the reporting period |
equal to or greater than his or her average wage paid per hour |
by the employer during each reporting period for the |
immediately preceding 12 months. A new qualified employee is |
deemed to have earned the required minimum wage in the |
preceding reporting period. |
"Reporting period" means the quarter for which a return is |
required to be filed under subsection (b) of this Section. |
(j) For reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, |
2023, if a private employer grants all of its employees the |
option of taking a paid leave of absence of at least 30 days |
for the purpose of serving as an organ donor or bone marrow |
donor, then the private employer may take a credit against the |
payments due under this Section in an amount equal to the |
amount withheld under this Section with respect to wages paid |
while the employee is on organ donation leave, not to exceed |
$1,000 in withholdings for each employee who takes organ |
donation leave. To be eligible for the credit, such a leave of |
absence must be taken without loss of pay, vacation time, |
compensatory time, personal days, or sick time for at least |
the first 30 days of the leave of absence. The private employer |
shall adopt rules governing organ donation leave, including |
|
rules that (i) establish conditions and procedures for |
requesting and approving leave and (ii) require medical |
documentation of the proposed organ or bone marrow donation |
before leave is approved by the private employer. A private |
employer must provide, in the manner required by the |
Department, documentation from the employee's medical |
provider, which the private employer receives from the |
employee, that verifies the employee's organ donation. The |
private employer must also provide, in the manner required by |
the Department, documentation that shows that a qualifying |
organ donor leave policy was in place and offered to all |
qualifying employees at the time the leave was taken. For the |
private employer to receive the tax credit, the employee |
taking organ donor leave must allow for the applicable medical |
records to be disclosed to the Department. If the private |
employer cannot provide the required documentation to the |
Department, then the private employer is ineligible for the |
credit under this Section. A private employer must also |
provide, in the form required by the Department, any |
additional documentation or information required by the |
Department to administer the credit under this Section. The |
credit under this subsection (j) shall be taken within one |
year after the date upon which the organ donation leave |
begins. If the leave taken spans into a second tax year, the |
employer qualifies for the allowable credit in the later of |
the 2 years. If the amount of credit exceeds the tax liability |
|
for the year, the excess may be carried and applied to the tax |
liability for the 3 taxable years following the excess credit |
year. The tax credit shall be applied to the earliest year for |
which there is a tax liability. If there are credits for more |
than one year that are available to offset liability, the |
earlier credit shall be applied first. |
Nothing in this subsection (j) prohibits a private |
employer from providing an unpaid leave of absence to its |
employees for the purpose of serving as an organ donor or bone |
marrow donor; however, if the employer's policy provides for |
fewer than 30 days of paid leave for organ or bone marrow |
donation, then the employer shall not be eligible for the |
credit under this Section. |
As used in this subsection (j): |
"Organ" means any biological tissue of the human body that |
may be donated by a living donor, including, but not limited |
to, the kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, intestine, bone, skin, |
or any subpart of those organs. |
"Organ donor" means a person from whose body an organ is |
taken to be transferred to the body of another person. |
"Private employer" means a sole proprietorship, |

include a municipality, county, State agency, or other public |
employer. |
This subsection (j) is exempt from the provisions of |
|
Section 250 of this Act. |
(k) A taxpayer who is issued a certificate under the Local |
Journalism Sustainability Act for a taxable year shall be |
allowed a credit against payments due under this Section as |
provided in that Act. |

provided in subsection (f) of Section 5-15 of the Economic |
Development for a Growing Economy Tax Credit Act. The credit |
or credits may not reduce the taxpayer's obligation for any |

Credit Act for agreements entered into on or after January 1, |
2015 may be credited against payments due under this Section. |
(g-1) For amounts deducted or withheld after December 31, |
2024, a taxpayer who makes an election under the Reimagining |
|
Energy and Vehicles in Illinois Act shall be allowed a credit |
against payments due under this Section for amounts withheld |

the certificate is issued equal to the portion of the REV |
Illinois Credit attributable to the incremental income tax |
attributable to new employees and retained employees as |
certified by the Department of Commerce and Economic |
Opportunity pursuant to an agreement with the taxpayer under |
the Reimagining Energy and Vehicles in Illinois Act for the |
taxable year. The credit or credits may not reduce the |
taxpayer's obligation for any payment due under this Section |
to less than zero. If the amount of the credit or credits |
exceeds the total payments due under this Section with respect |
to amounts withheld during the quarterly reporting period, the |
excess may be carried forward and applied against the |
taxpayer's liability under this Section in the succeeding |
quarterly reporting period as allowed to be carried forward |
under paragraph (4) of Section 211 of this Act. The credit or |
credits shall be applied to the earliest quarterly reporting |
period for which there is a tax liability. If there are credits |
from more than one quarterly reporting period that are |
available to offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be |
applied first. Each employer who deducts and withholds or is |
required to deduct and withhold tax under this Act and who |
retains income tax withholdings this subsection must make a |
return with respect to such taxes and retained amounts in the |
|
form and manner that the Department, by rule, requires and pay |

For purposes of this subsection (g-1), the term taxpayer shall |
include taxpayer and members of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group as defined under paragraph (27) of subsection |
(a) of Section 1501 of this Act. This Section is exempt from |

Economic Opportunity pursuant to an agreement with the |
taxpayer under the Manufacturing Illinois Chips for Real |
Opportunity (MICRO) Act for the taxable year. The credit or |
credits may not reduce the taxpayer's obligation for any |
payment due under this Section to less than zero. If the amount |
of the credit or credits exceeds the total payments due under |
this Section with respect to amounts withheld during the |
quarterly reporting period, the excess may be carried forward |
and applied against the taxpayer's liability under this |
|
Section in the succeeding quarterly reporting period as |
allowed to be carried forward under paragraph (4) of Section |
211 of this Act. The credit or credits shall be applied to the |
earliest quarterly reporting period for which there is a tax |
liability. If there are credits from more than one quarterly |
reporting period that are available to offset a liability, the |
earlier credit shall be applied first. Each employer who |
deducts and withholds or is required to deduct and withhold |
tax under this Act and who retains income tax withholdings |
this subsection must make a return with respect to such taxes |
and retained amounts in the form and manner that the |
Department, by rule, requires and pay to the Department or to a |
depositary designated by the Department those withheld taxes |
not retained by the taxpayer. For purposes of this subsection, |
the term taxpayer shall include taxpayer and members of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group as defined under paragraph |
(27) of subsection (a) of Section 1501 of this Act. This |
Section is exempt from the provisions of Section 250 of this |
Act. |
(h) An employer may claim a credit against payments due |
under this Section for amounts withheld during the first |
calendar year ending after the date on which a tax credit |
certificate was issued under Section 35 of the Small Business |
Job Creation Tax Credit Act. The credit shall be equal to the |
amount shown on the certificate, but may not reduce the |
taxpayer's obligation for any payment due under this Section |
|
to less than zero. If the amount of the credit exceeds the |
total payments due under this Section with respect to amounts |
withheld during the calendar year, the excess may be carried |
forward and applied against the taxpayer's liability under |
this Section in the 5 succeeding calendar years. The credit |
shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is a tax |
liability. If there are credits from more than one calendar |
year that are available to offset a liability, the earlier |
credit shall be applied first. This Section is exempt from the |
provisions of Section 250 of this Act. |
(i) Each employer with 50 or fewer full-time equivalent |
employees during the reporting period may claim a credit |
against the payments due under this Section for each qualified |
employee in an amount equal to the maximum credit allowable. |
The credit may be taken against payments due for reporting |
periods that begin on or after January 1, 2020, and end on or |
before December 31, 2027. An employer may not claim a credit |
for an employee who has worked fewer than 90 consecutive days |
immediately preceding the reporting period; however, such |
credits may accrue during that 90-day period and be claimed |
against payments under this Section for future reporting |
periods after the employee has worked for the employer at |
least 90 consecutive days. In no event may the credit exceed |
the employer's liability for the reporting period. Each |
employer who deducts and withholds or is required to deduct |
and withhold tax under this Act and who retains income tax |
|
withholdings under this subsection must make a return with |
respect to such taxes and retained amounts in the form and |
manner that the Department, by rule, requires and pay to the |
Department or to a depositary designated by the Department |
those withheld taxes not retained by the employer. |
For each reporting period, the employer may not claim a |
credit or credits for more employees than the number of |
employees making less than the minimum or reduced wage for the |
current calendar year during the last reporting period of the |
preceding calendar year. Notwithstanding any other provision |
of this subsection, an employer shall not be eligible for |
credits for a reporting period unless the average wage paid by |
the employer per employee for all employees making less than |
$55,000 during the reporting period is greater than the |
average wage paid by the employer per employee for all |
employees making less than $55,000 during the same reporting |
period of the prior calendar year. |
For purposes of this subsection (i): |
"Compensation paid in Illinois" has the meaning ascribed |
to that term under Section 304(a)(2)(B) of this Act. |
"Employer" and "employee" have the meaning ascribed to |
those terms in the Minimum Wage Law, except that "employee" |
also includes employees who work for an employer with fewer |
than 4 employees. Employers that operate more than one |
establishment pursuant to a franchise agreement or that |
constitute members of a unitary business group shall aggregate |
|
their employees for purposes of determining eligibility for |
the credit. |
"Full-time equivalent employees" means the ratio of the |
number of paid hours during the reporting period and the |
number of working hours in that period. |
"Maximum credit" means the percentage listed below of the |
difference between the amount of compensation paid in Illinois |
to employees who are paid not more than the required minimum |
wage reduced by the amount of compensation paid in Illinois to |
employees who were paid less than the current required minimum |
wage during the reporting period prior to each increase in the |
required minimum wage on January 1. If an employer pays an |
employee more than the required minimum wage and that employee |
previously earned less than the required minimum wage, the |
employer may include the portion that does not exceed the |
required minimum wage as compensation paid in Illinois to |
employees who are paid not more than the required minimum |
wage. |
(1) 25% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2020 and ending on or before December 31, 2020; |
(2) 21% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2021 and ending on or before December 31, 2021; |
(3) 17% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2022 and ending on or before December 31, 2022; |
(4) 13% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2023 and ending on or before December 31, 2023; |
|
(5) 9% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2024 and ending on or before December 31, 2024; |
(6) 5% for reporting periods beginning on or after |
January 1, 2025 and ending on or before December 31, 2025. |
The amount computed under this subsection may continue to |
be claimed for reporting periods beginning on or after January |
1, 2026 and: |
(A) ending on or before December 31, 2026 for |
employers with more than 5 employees; or |
(B) ending on or before December 31, 2027 for |
employers with no more than 5 employees. |
"Qualified employee" means an employee who is paid not |
more than the required minimum wage and has an average wage |
paid per hour by the employer during the reporting period |
equal to or greater than his or her average wage paid per hour |
by the employer during each reporting period for the |
immediately preceding 12 months. A new qualified employee is |
deemed to have earned the required minimum wage in the |
preceding reporting period. |
"Reporting period" means the quarter for which a return is |
required to be filed under subsection (b) of this Section. |
(j) For reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, |
2023, if a private employer grants all of its employees the |
option of taking a paid leave of absence of at least 30 days |
for the purpose of serving as an organ donor or bone marrow |
donor, then the private employer may take a credit against the |
|
payments due under this Section in an amount equal to the |
amount withheld under this Section with respect to wages paid |
while the employee is on organ donation leave, not to exceed |
$1,000 in withholdings for each employee who takes organ |
donation leave. To be eligible for the credit, such a leave of |
absence must be taken without loss of pay, vacation time, |
compensatory time, personal days, or sick time for at least |
the first 30 days of the leave of absence. The private employer |
shall adopt rules governing organ donation leave, including |
rules that (i) establish conditions and procedures for |
requesting and approving leave and (ii) require medical |
documentation of the proposed organ or bone marrow donation |
before leave is approved by the private employer. A private |
employer must provide, in the manner required by the |
Department, documentation from the employee's medical |
provider, which the private employer receives from the |
employee, that verifies the employee's organ donation. The |
private employer must also provide, in the manner required by |
the Department, documentation that shows that a qualifying |
organ donor leave policy was in place and offered to all |
qualifying employees at the time the leave was taken. For the |
private employer to receive the tax credit, the employee |
taking organ donor leave must allow for the applicable medical |
records to be disclosed to the Department. If the private |
employer cannot provide the required documentation to the |
Department, then the private employer is ineligible for the |
|
credit under this Section. A private employer must also |
provide, in the form required by the Department, any |
additional documentation or information required by the |
Department to administer the credit under this Section. The |
credit under this subsection (j) shall be taken within one |
year after the date upon which the organ donation leave |
begins. If the leave taken spans into a second tax year, the |
employer qualifies for the allowable credit in the later of |
the 2 years. If the amount of credit exceeds the tax liability |
for the year, the excess may be carried and applied to the tax |
liability for the 3 taxable years following the excess credit |
year. The tax credit shall be applied to the earliest year for |
which there is a tax liability. If there are credits for more |
than one year that are available to offset liability, the |
earlier credit shall be applied first. |
Nothing in this subsection (j) prohibits a private |
employer from providing an unpaid leave of absence to its |
employees for the purpose of serving as an organ donor or bone |
marrow donor; however, if the employer's policy provides for |
fewer than 30 days of paid leave for organ or bone marrow |
donation, then the employer shall not be eligible for the |
credit under this Section. |
As used in this subsection (j): |
"Organ" means any biological tissue of the human body that |
may be donated by a living donor, including, but not limited |
to, the kidney, liver, lung, pancreas, intestine, bone, skin, |
|
or any subpart of those organs. |
"Organ donor" means a person from whose body an organ is |
taken to be transferred to the body of another person. |
"Private employer" means a sole proprietorship, |
corporation, partnership, limited liability company, or other |
entity with one or more employees. "Private employer" does not |
include a municipality, county, State agency, or other public |
employer. |
This subsection (j) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250 of this Act. |
(k) For reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, |
2025 and before January 1, 2027, an employer may claim a credit |
against payments due under this Section for amounts withheld |
during the first reporting period to occur after the date on |
which a tax credit certificate is issued for a non-profit |
theater production under Section 10 of the Live Theater |
Production Tax Credit Act. The credit shall be equal to the |
amount shown on the certificate, but may not reduce the |
taxpayer's obligation for any payment due under this Article |
to less than zero. If the amount of the credit exceeds the |
total amount due under this Article with respect to amounts |
withheld during the first reporting period to occur after the |
date on which a tax credit certificate is issued, the excess |
may be carried forward and applied against the taxpayer's |
liability under this Section for reporting periods that occur |
in the 5 succeeding calendar years. The excess credit shall be |
|
applied to the earliest reporting period for which there is a |
payment due under this Article. If there are credits from more |
than one reporting period that are available to offset a |
liability, the earlier credit shall be applied first. The |
Department of Revenue, in cooperation with the Department of |
Commerce and Economic Opportunity, shall adopt rules to |
enforce and administer the provisions of this subsection. |

ARTICLE 50. |
Section 50-1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the |
Music and Musicians Tax Credit and Jobs Act. References in |
this Article to "this Act" mean this Article. |
Section 50-5. Purpose. The State's economy depends heavily |
on music, professional musicians, music teachers, and |
educators. Illinois is a cultural crown jewel of the United |
States. Illinois and Chicago boast a robust history and |
community of creative artists, writers, musicians, architects, |
orchestras, live music and entertainment venues, civic operas, |
recording studios, and universities. The COVID-19 pandemic and |
the economic fallout that ensued brought on especially |
|
difficult circumstances for the live entertainment industry at |
large. Throughout the State, this has meant the closure of and |
overall decrease in culturally engaging aspects of Illinois |
cities from Cairo to Chicago. |
According to the Americans for the Arts Action Fund, arts |
and culture represent 3.1% of the State's gross domestic |
product and 190,078 jobs. In fact, in 2020, Illinois arts and |
culture was larger than the State's agriculture industry. In |
2015, nonprofit arts organizations in the State generated |
$4,000,000,000 in economic activity that supported 111,068 |
jobs and generated $478,500,000 in State and local government |
revenue. In Chicago specifically, nonprofit arts groups |
generated $3,200,000,000 in total economic activity and |
$336,500,000 in State and local government revenue. Audiences |
exceeded 36,000,000 people. |
Yet, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the arts suffered. As a |
result, Illinois arts and culture value added decreased by 9% |
between 2019 and 2020 and employment decreased by 12%. |
Ultimately, $3,200,000,000 and 26,644 jobs were lost. Even as |
live performances have resumed, audience sizes remain below |
pre-pandemic levels. Regional theaters, local orchestras, |
opera houses, and performing arts organizations are reporting |
persistent drops in attendance. |
It is the policy of this State to promote and encourage the |
training and hiring of Illinois residents who represent the |
diversity of the Illinois population through the creation and |
|
implementation of training, education, and recruitment |
programs organized in cooperation with Illinois colleges and |
universities, labor organizations, and the commercial |
for-profit music industry. |

Sec. 241. Music and Musicians Tax Credits and Jobs Act. |
Taxpayers who have been awarded a credit under the Music and |

against the taxes imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of |
Section 201 of this Act in an amount determined by the |
Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity under that |
Act. The credit shall be claimed in the taxable year in which |
the tax credit award certificate is issued, and the |
certificate shall be attached to the return. If the taxpayer |
is a partnership or Subchapter S corporation, the credit shall |
be allowed to the partners or shareholders in accordance with |
the provisions of Section 251. |
|
The credit may not reduce the taxpayer's liability to less |
than zero. If the amount of the credit exceeds the tax |
liability for the year, the excess may be carried forward and |
applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following |
the excess credit year. The credit shall be applied to the |
earliest year for which there is a tax liability. If there are |
credits from more than one tax year that are available to |
offset a liability, the earlier credit shall be applied first. |

Section 55-5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by |
changing Section 216 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 5/216) |
Sec. 216. Credit for wages paid to returning citizens |

(a) For each taxable year beginning on or after January 1, |
2007, each taxpayer is entitled to a credit against the tax |
imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act |
in an amount equal to 5% of qualified wages paid by the |
taxpayer during the taxable year to one or more Illinois |
residents who are qualified returning citizens ex-offenders . |
For each taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2025, |
each taxpayer is entitled to a credit against the tax imposed |
by subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act in an |
|
amount equal to 15% of qualified wages paid by the taxpayer |
during the taxable year to one or more Illinois residents who |
are qualified returning citizens. The total credit allowed to |
a taxpayer with respect to each qualified returning citizen |
ex-offender may not exceed $1,500 for all taxable years ending |
on or before December 31, 2024 . For taxable years ending on or |
after December 31, 2025, the total credit allowed to a |
taxpayer with respect to each qualified returning citizen may |
not exceed $7,500. For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2025, the total amount in credit that may be |
awarded under this Section may not exceed $1,000,000 per |
taxable year. For taxable years ending before December 31, |
2023, for partners, shareholders of Subchapter S corporations, |
and owners of limited liability companies, if the liability |
company is treated as a partnership for purposes of federal |
and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a credit |
under this Section to be determined in accordance with the |
determination of income and distributive share of income under |
Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue |
Code. For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2023, |
partners and shareholders of subchapter S corporations are |
entitled to a credit under this Section as provided in Section |
251. |
(b) For purposes of this Section, "qualified wages": |
(1) includes only wages that are subject to federal |
unemployment tax under Section 3306 of the Internal |
|
Revenue Code, without regard to any dollar limitation |
contained in that Section; |
(2) does not include any amounts paid or incurred by |
an employer for any period to any qualified returning |
citizen ex-offender for whom the employer receives |
federally funded payments for on-the-job training of that |
qualified returning citizen ex-offender for that period; |
and |
(3) includes only wages attributable to service |
rendered during the one-year period beginning with the day |
the qualified returning citizen ex-offender begins work |
for the employer. |
If the taxpayer has received any payment from a program |
established under Section 482(e)(1) of the federal Social |
Security Act with respect to a qualified returning citizen |
ex-offender , then, for purposes of calculating the credit |
under this Section, the amount of the qualified wages paid to |
that qualified ex-offender must be reduced by the amount of |
the payment. |
(c) For purposes of this Section, "qualified returning |
citizen ex-offender " means any person who: |
(1) has been convicted of a crime in this State or of |
an offense in any other jurisdiction, not including any |

to registration under the Sex Offender Registration Act; |
(2) was sentenced to a period of incarceration in an |
|
Illinois adult correctional center; and |
(3) was hired by the taxpayer within 3 years after |
being released from an Illinois adult correctional center |
if the credit is claimed for a taxable year beginning on or |
before January 1, 2024, or was hired by the taxpayer |
within 5 years after being released from an Illinois adult |
correctional center if the credit is claimed for a taxable |
year beginning on or after January 1, 2025 . |
(d) In no event shall a credit under this Section reduce |
the taxpayer's liability to less than zero. If the amount of |
the credit exceeds the tax liability for the year, the excess |
may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the |
5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The tax |
credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is |
a tax liability. If there are credits for more than one year |
that are available to offset a liability, the earlier credit |
shall be applied first. |

250. |

(35 ILCS 145/3) (from Ch. 120, par. 481b.33) |
Sec. 3. Rate; exemptions. |
(a) A tax is imposed upon hotel operators persons engaged |
in the business of renting, leasing or letting rooms in a hotel |
at the rate of 5% of 94% of the gross rental receipts from |
engaging in business as a hotel operator such renting, leasing |
or letting , excluding, however, from gross rental receipts, |

|
or letting rooms in a hotel at the rate of 1% of 94% of the |
gross rental receipts received by the hotel operator from |
engaging in business as a hotel operator from such renting, |
leasing or letting , excluding, however, from gross rental |
receipts, the proceeds of such renting, leasing or letting to |
permanent residents of that hotel and proceeds from the tax |
imposed under subsection (c) of Section 13 of the Metropolitan |
Pier and Exposition Authority Act. |
(b-5) Beginning on July 1, 2024, if the renting, leasing, |
or letting of a hotel room is done through a re-renter of hotel |
rooms, then, subject to the provisions of Sections 3-2 and |
3-3, the re-renter is the hotel operator for the purposes of |
the taxes under subsections (a) and (b). If the re-renter is |
headquartered outside of this State and has no presence in |
this State other than its business as a re-renter, conducted |
remotely, then, subject to the provisions of Sections 3-2 and |
3-3, such re-renter is the hotel operator for the purposes of |
the taxes under subsections (a) and (b) if it meets one of the |
following thresholds: |
(1) the cumulative gross receipts from rentals in |
Illinois by the re-renter of hotel rooms are $100,000 or |
more; or |
(2) the re-renter of hotel rooms cumulatively enters |
into 200 or more separate transactions for rentals in |
Illinois. |
A re-renter of hotel rooms who is headquartered outside of |
|
this State and has no presence in this State other than its |
business as a re-renter, conducted remotely, shall determine |
on a quarterly basis, ending on the last day of March, June, |
September, and December, whether he or she meets the threshold |
of either paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection (b-5) for the |
preceding 12-month period. If such re-renter of hotel rooms |
meets the threshold of either paragraph (1) or (2) for a |
12-month period, he or she is subject to tax under this Act and |
is required to remit the tax imposed under this Act and file |
returns for the 12-month period beginning on the first day of |
the next month after he or she determines that he or she meets |
the threshold of paragraph (1) or (2). At the end of that |
12-month period, such re-renter of hotel rooms shall determine |
whether he or she continued to meet the threshold of either |
paragraph (1) or (2) during the preceding 12-month period. If |
he or she met the threshold in either paragraph (1) or (2) for |
the preceding 12-month period, he or she is a hotel operator in |
this State and is required to remit the tax imposed under this |
Act and file returns for the subsequent 12-month period. If, |
at the end of a 12-month period during which such re-renter is |
required to remit the tax imposed under this Act, the |
re-renter determines that he or she did not meet the threshold |
in either paragraph (1) or (2) during the preceding 12-month |
period, he or she shall subsequently determine on a quarterly |
basis, ending on the last day of March, June, September, and |
December, whether he or she meets the threshold of either |
|
paragraph (1) or (2) for the preceding 12-month period. |
(c) No funds received pursuant to this Act shall be used to |
advertise for or otherwise promote new competition in the |
hotel business. |
(d) However, such tax is not imposed upon the privilege of |
engaging in any business in Interstate Commerce or otherwise, |
which business may not, under the Constitution and Statutes of |
the United States, be made the subject of taxation by this |
State. In addition, the tax is not imposed upon gross rental |
receipts for which the hotel operator is prohibited from |
obtaining reimbursement for the tax from the customer by |
reason of a federal treaty. |
(d-5) On and after July 1, 2017, the tax imposed by this |
Act shall not apply to gross rental receipts received by an |
entity that is organized and operated exclusively for |
religious purposes and possesses an active Exemption |
Identification Number issued by the Department pursuant to the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act when acting as a hotel operator |
renting, leasing, or letting rooms: |
(1) in furtherance of the purposes for which it is |
organized; or |
(2) to entities that (i) are organized and operated |
exclusively for religious purposes, (ii) possess an active |
Exemption Identification Number issued by the Department |
pursuant to the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, and (iii) |
rent the rooms in furtherance of the purposes for which |
|
they are organized. |
No gross rental receipts are exempt under paragraph (2) of |
this subsection (d-5) unless the hotel operator obtains the |
active Exemption Identification Number from the exclusively |
religious entity to whom it is renting and maintains that |
number in its books and records. Gross rental receipts from |
all rentals other than those described in items (1) or (2) of |
this subsection (d-5) are subject to the tax imposed by this |
Act unless otherwise exempt under this Act. |
This subsection (d-5) is exempt from the sunset provisions |
of Section 3-5 of this Act. |
(d-10) On and after July 1, 2023, the tax imposed by this |
Act shall not apply to gross rental receipts received from the |
renting, leasing, or letting of rooms to an entity that is |
organized and operated exclusively by an organization |
chartered by the United States Congress for the purpose of |
providing disaster relief and that possesses an active |
Exemption Identification Number issued by the Department |
pursuant to the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act if the renting, |
leasing, or letting of the rooms is in furtherance of the |
purposes for which the exempt organization is organized. This |
subsection (d-10) is exempt from the sunset provisions of |
Section 3-5 of this Act. |
(e) Persons subject to the tax imposed by this Act may |
reimburse themselves for their tax liability under this Act by |
separately stating such tax as an additional charge, which |
|
charge may be stated in combination, in a single amount, with |
any tax imposed pursuant to Sections 8-3-13 and 8-3-14 of the |
Illinois Municipal Code, and Section 25.05-10 of "An Act to |
revise the law in relation to counties". |
(f) If any hotel operator collects an amount (however |
designated) which purports to reimburse such operator for |
hotel operators' occupation tax liability measured by receipts |
which are not subject to hotel operators' occupation tax, or |
if any hotel operator, in collecting an amount (however |
designated) which purports to reimburse such operator for |
hotel operators' occupation tax liability measured by receipts |
which are subject to tax under this Act, collects more from the |
guest or re-renter customer than the operators' hotel |
operators' occupation tax liability in the transaction is, the |
guest or re-renter, as applicable, customer shall have a legal |
right to claim a refund of such amount from such operator. |
However, if such amount is not refunded to the guest or |
re-renter, as applicable, customer for any reason, the hotel |
operator is liable to pay such amount to the Department. |

Sec. 3-2. No resale exemption; tax incurred by re-renters |
of hotel rooms. A hotel operator who rents, leases, or lets |
rooms subject to tax under this Act to a re-renter of hotel |

|
receipts it receives from that re-renter of hotel rooms and |
cannot claim any resale exemption. In such situations, the |

3 of this Act to a hotel operator as reimbursement for the tax |
incurred under this Act for the rental of that room for the |
purposes of re-rental. |
(35 ILCS 145/4) (from Ch. 120, par. 481b.34) |
Sec. 4. Books and records. Every operator shall keep |
separate books or records of his business as an operator so as |

he shall be liable to tax at the rate designated in Section 3 |
hereof upon the entire proceeds from his business hotel . The |
Department may adopt rules that establish requirements, |
including record forms and formats, for records required to be |
kept and maintained by taxpayers. For purposes of this |
Section, "records" means all data maintained by the taxpayer, |
|
including data on paper, microfilm, microfiche or any type of |
machine-sensible data compilation. |

Sec. 6. Returns; allocation of proceeds Filing of returns |
and distribution of revenue . Except as provided hereinafter in |
this Section, on or before the last day of each calendar month, |
every person engaged as a hotel operator in the business of |
renting, leasing or letting rooms in a hotel in this State |
during the preceding calendar month shall file a return with |
the Department, stating: |
|
1. The name of the operator; |
2. His residence address and the address of his |
principal place of business and the address of the |
principal place of business (if that is a different |
address) from which he engages in the business as a hotel |
operator of renting, leasing or letting rooms in a hotel |
in this State (including, if required by the Department, |
the address of each hotel from which rental receipts were |
received) ; |
3. Total amount of rental receipts received by him |
during the preceding calendar month from engaging in |
business as a hotel operator renting, leasing or letting |
rooms during such preceding calendar month; |
4. Total amount of rental receipts received by him |
during the preceding calendar month from renting, leasing |
or letting rooms to permanent residents during such |

9. 8. Such other reasonable information as the |
Department may require. |
If the operator's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize |
his 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 30 of such year; with the return for April, May |
and June of a given year being due by July 31 of such year; |
with the return for July, August and September of a given year |
being due by October 31 of such year, and with the return for |
October, November and December of a given year being due by |
January 31 of the following year. |
If the operator's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department does not exceed $50, the Department may authorize |
his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with the return for |
a given year being due by January 31 of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which an operator may file his return, in the |
case of any operator who ceases to engage in a kind of business |
which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act, |
such operator shall file a final return under this Act with the |
Department not more than 1 month after discontinuing such |
|
business. |
Where the same person has more than 1 business registered |
with the Department under separate registrations under this |
Act, such person shall not file each return that is due as a |
single return covering all such registered businesses, but |
shall file separate returns for each such registered business. |
In his return, the operator shall determine the value of |
any consideration other than money received by him in |
connection with engaging in business as a hotel operator the |
renting, leasing or letting of rooms in the course of his |
business and he shall include such value in his return. Such |
determination shall be subject to review and revision by the |
Department in the manner hereinafter provided for the |
correction of returns. |
Where the operator is a corporation, the return filed on |
behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president, |
vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly |
accredited agent of such corporation. |
The person filing the return herein provided for shall, at |
the time of filing such return, pay to the Department the |
amount of tax herein imposed. The operator filing the return |
under this Section shall, at the time of filing such return, |
pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this Act |
less a discount of 2.1% or $25 per calendar year, whichever is |
greater, which is allowed to reimburse the operator for the |
expenses incurred in keeping records, preparing and filing |
|
returns, remitting the tax and supplying data to the |
Department on request. |
If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the |
operator's liabilities under this Act, as shown on an original |
return, the Department may authorize the operator to credit |
such excess payment against liability subsequently to be |
remitted to the Department under this Act, in accordance with |
reasonable rules adopted by the Department. If the Department |
subsequently determines that all or any part of the credit |
taken was not actually due to the operator, the operator's |
discount shall be reduced by an amount equal to the difference |
between the discount as applied to the credit taken and that |
actually due, and that operator shall be liable for penalties |
and interest on such difference. |
There shall be deposited into the Build Illinois Fund in |
the State Treasury for each State fiscal year 40% of the amount |
of total net revenue from the tax imposed by subsection (a) of |
Section 3. Of the remaining 60%: (i) $5,000,000 shall be |
deposited into the Illinois Sports Facilities Fund and |
credited to the Subsidy Account each fiscal year by making |
monthly deposits in the amount of 1/8 of $5,000,000 plus |
cumulative deficiencies in such deposits for prior months, and |
(ii) an amount equal to the then applicable Advance Amount |
shall be deposited into the Illinois Sports Facilities Fund |
and credited to the Advance Account each fiscal year by making |
monthly deposits in the amount of 1/8 of the then applicable |
|
Advance Amount plus any cumulative deficiencies in such |
deposits for prior months. (The deposits of the then |
applicable Advance Amount during each fiscal year shall be |
treated as advances of funds to the Illinois Sports Facilities |
Authority for its corporate purposes to the extent paid to the |
Authority or its trustee and shall be repaid into the General |
Revenue Fund in the State Treasury by the State Treasurer on |
behalf of the Authority pursuant to Section 19 of the Illinois |
Sports Facilities Authority Act, as amended. If in any fiscal |
year the full amount of the then applicable Advance Amount is |
not repaid into the General Revenue Fund, then the deficiency |
shall be paid from the amount in the Local Government |
Distributive Fund that would otherwise be allocated to the |
City of Chicago under the State Revenue Sharing Act.) |
For purposes of the foregoing paragraph, the term "Advance |
Amount" means, for fiscal year 2002, $22,179,000, and for |
subsequent fiscal years through fiscal year 2033, 105.615% of |
the Advance Amount for the immediately preceding fiscal year, |
rounded up to the nearest $1,000. |
Of the remaining 60% of the amount of total net revenue |
beginning on August 1, 2011 through June 30, 2023, from the tax |
imposed by subsection (a) of Section 3 after all required |
deposits into the Illinois Sports Facilities Fund, an amount |
equal to 8% of the net revenue realized from this Act during |
the preceding month shall be deposited as follows: 18% of such |
amount shall be deposited into the Chicago Travel Industry |
|
Promotion Fund for the purposes described in subsection (n) of |
Section 5 of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority |
Act and the remaining 82% of such amount shall be deposited |
into the Local Tourism Fund each month for purposes authorized |
by Section 605-705 of the Department of Commerce and Economic |
Opportunity Law. Beginning on August 1, 2011 and through June |
30, 2023, an amount equal to 4.5% of the net revenue realized |
from this Act during the preceding month shall be deposited as |
follows: 55% of such amount shall be deposited into the |
Chicago Travel Industry Promotion Fund for the purposes |
described in subsection (n) of Section 5 of the Metropolitan |
Pier and Exposition Authority Act and the remaining 45% of |
such amount deposited into the International Tourism Fund for |
the purposes authorized in Section 605-707 of the Department |
of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Law. "Net revenue |
realized" means the revenue collected by the State under this |
Act less the amount paid out as refunds to taxpayers for |
overpayment of liability under this Act. |
Beginning on July 1, 2023, of the remaining 60% of the |
amount of total net revenue realized from the tax imposed |
under subsection (a) of Section 3, after all required deposits |
into the Illinois Sports Facilities Fund: |

under this Act for the preceding month shall be deposited |

(2) an amount equal to 4.5% of the net revenue |
realized under this Act for the preceding month shall be |
deposited as follows: 55% to the Chicago Travel Industry |
Promotion Fund and 45% to the International Tourism Fund. |
After making all these deposits, any remaining net revenue |
realized from the tax imposed under subsection (a) of Section |
3 shall be deposited into the Tourism Promotion Fund in the |
State Treasury. All moneys received by the Department from the |
additional tax imposed under subsection (b) of Section 3 shall |
be deposited into the Build Illinois Fund in the State |
Treasury. |
The Department may, upon separate written notice to a |
taxpayer, require the taxpayer to prepare and file with the |
Department on a form prescribed by the Department within not |
less than 60 days after receipt of the notice an annual |
information return for the tax year specified in the notice. |
Such annual return to the Department shall include a statement |
of gross receipts as shown by the operator's last State income |
tax return. If the total receipts of the business as reported |
in the State income tax return do not agree with the gross |
receipts reported to the Department for the same period, the |
operator shall attach to his annual information return a |
schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2 amounts and the |
reasons for the difference. The operator's annual information |
return to the Department shall also disclose payroll |
information of the operator's business during the year covered |
|
by such return and any additional reasonable information which |
the Department deems would be helpful in determining the |
accuracy of the monthly, quarterly or annual tax returns by |
such operator as hereinbefore provided for in this Section. |
If the annual information return required by this Section |
is not filed when and as required the taxpayer shall be liable |
for a penalty in an amount determined in accordance with |
Section 3-4 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act until such |
return is filed as required, the penalty to be assessed and |
collected in the same manner as any other penalty provided for |
in this Act. |
The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest |
ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the |
accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person who |
willfully signs the annual return containing false or |
inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished |
accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the |
Department shall include a warning that the person signing the |
return may be liable for perjury. |
The foregoing portion of this Section concerning the |
filing of an annual information return shall not apply to an |
operator who is not required to file an income tax return with |
the United States Government. |

the Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax Act and the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if the provisions |
contained in those Acts were set forth herein. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Illinois tourism tax fund. |

by this Section may reimburse themselves for their tax |
liability for that tax by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax imposed under the Hotel |
|

by the State Treasurer, which shall be paid into the General |
Revenue Fund of the State Treasury. |
Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of the |
disbursement certification to the municipalities and the |
General Revenue Fund provided for in this Section to be given |
to the Comptroller by the Department, the Comptroller shall |
|
cause the warrants to be drawn for the respective amounts in |
accordance with the directions contained in the certification. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business that, under the Constitution of the United |
States, may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing a tax hereunder or |
effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be effective on |

of the ordinance or resolution imposing the tax; whereupon, |
the Department of Revenue shall proceed to administer and |

the ordinance or resolution discontinuing the tax or effecting |
a change in rate, transmit to the Department of Revenue a |
certified copy of the ordinance or resolution effecting the |
change or discontinuance. The amounts disbursed to any |
|
municipality under this Section shall be expended by the |
municipality solely to promote tourism, conventions and other |
special events within that municipality or otherwise to |
attract nonresidents to visit the municipality. |
Any municipality receiving and disbursing money under this |
Section shall report on or before the first Monday in January |
of each year to the Advisory Committee of the Illinois Tourism |

Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause a warrant to be drawn for the |

|
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, ex |

|
enforce this subsection on behalf of the Authority as of the |

In the ordinance imposing the tax, the Authority may |
provide for the administration and enforcement of the tax and |
the collection of the tax from persons subject to the tax as |
the Authority determines to be necessary or practicable for |
the effective administration of the tax. The Authority may |
enter into agreements as it deems appropriate with any |
governmental agency providing for that agency to act as the |
Authority's agent to collect the tax. |
In the ordinance imposing the tax, the Authority may |
designate a method or methods for persons subject to the tax to |
reimburse themselves for the tax liability arising under the |
ordinance (i) by separately stating the full amount of the tax |
liability as an additional charge to passengers departing the |
airports, (ii) by separately stating one-half of the tax |
liability as an additional charge to both passengers departing |
from and to passengers arriving at the airports, or (iii) by |
some other method determined by the Authority. |
All taxes, penalties, and interest collected under any |
ordinance adopted under this subsection, less any amounts |
determined to be necessary for the payment of refunds and less |
the taxes, penalties, and interest attributable to any |
increase in the rate of tax authorized by Public Act 96-898, |
shall be paid forthwith to the State Treasurer, ex officio, |
for deposit into a trust fund held outside the State Treasury |
and shall be administered by the State Treasurer as provided |
in subsection (g) of this Section. All taxes, penalties, and |
|
interest attributable to any increase in the rate of tax |
authorized by Public Act 96-898 shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer as follows: 25% for deposit into the Convention |
Center Support Fund, to be used by the Village of Rosemont for |
the repair, maintenance, and improvement of the Donald E. |
Stephens Convention Center and for debt service on debt |
instruments issued for those purposes by the village and 75% |
to the Authority to be used for grants to an organization |
meeting the qualifications set out in Section 5.6 of this Act, |
provided the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority has |
entered into a marketing agreement with such an organization. |
(g) Amounts deposited from the proceeds of taxes imposed |
by the Authority under subsections (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) |
of this Section and amounts deposited under Section 19 of the |
Illinois Sports Facilities Authority Act shall be held in a |
trust fund outside the State Treasury and, other than the |
amounts transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration |
Fund under subsections (b), (c), (d), and (e), shall be |
administered by the Treasurer as follows: |
(1) An amount necessary for the payment of refunds |
with respect to those taxes shall be retained in the trust |
fund and used for those payments. |
(2) On July 20 and on the 20th of each month |
thereafter, provided that the amount requested in the |
annual certificate of the Chairman of the Authority filed |
under Section 8.25f of the State Finance Act has been |
|
appropriated for payment to the Authority, 1/8 of the |
local tax transfer amount, together with any cumulative |
deficiencies in the amounts transferred into the McCormick |
Place Expansion Project Fund under this subparagraph (2) |
during the fiscal year for which the certificate has been |
filed, shall be transferred from the trust fund into the |
McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund in the State |
treasury until 100% of the local tax transfer amount has |
been so transferred. "Local tax transfer amount" shall |
mean the amount requested in the annual certificate, minus |
the reduction amount. "Reduction amount" shall mean $41.7 |
million in fiscal year 2011, $36.7 million in fiscal year |
2012, $36.7 million in fiscal year 2013, $36.7 million in |
fiscal year 2014, and $31.7 million in each fiscal year |
thereafter until 2035, provided that the reduction amount |
shall be reduced by (i) the amount certified by the |
Authority to the State Comptroller and State Treasurer |
under Section 8.25 of the State Finance Act, as amended, |
with respect to that fiscal year and (ii) in any fiscal |
year in which the amounts deposited in the trust fund |
under this Section exceed $343.3 million, exclusive of |
amounts set aside for refunds and for the reserve account, |
one dollar for each dollar of the deposits in the trust |
fund above $343.3 million with respect to that year, |
exclusive of amounts set aside for refunds and for the |
reserve account. |
|
(3) On July 20, 2010, the Comptroller shall certify to |
the Governor, the Treasurer, and the Chairman of the |
Authority the 2010 deficiency amount, which means the |
cumulative amount of transfers that were due from the |
trust fund to the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund |
in fiscal years 2008, 2009, and 2010 under Section 13(g) |
of this Act, as it existed prior to May 27, 2010 (the |
effective date of Public Act 96-898), but not made. On |
July 20, 2011 and on July 20 of each year through July 20, |
2014, the Treasurer shall calculate for the previous |
fiscal year the surplus revenues in the trust fund and pay |
that amount to the Authority. On July 20, 2015 and on July |
20 of each year thereafter to and including July 20, 2017, |
as long as bonds and notes issued under Section 13.2 or |
bonds and notes issued to refund those bonds and notes are |
outstanding, the Treasurer shall calculate for the |
previous fiscal year the surplus revenues in the trust |
fund and pay one-half of that amount to the State |
Treasurer for deposit into the General Revenue Fund until |
the 2010 deficiency amount has been paid and shall pay the |
balance of the surplus revenues to the Authority. On July |
20, 2018 and on July 20 of each year thereafter, the |
Treasurer shall calculate for the previous fiscal year the |
surplus revenues in the trust fund and pay all of such |
surplus revenues to the State Treasurer for deposit into |
the General Revenue Fund until the 2010 deficiency amount |
|
has been paid. After the 2010 deficiency amount has been |
paid, the Treasurer shall pay the balance of the surplus |
revenues to the Authority. "Surplus revenues" means the |
amounts remaining in the trust fund on June 30 of the |
previous fiscal year (A) after the State Treasurer has set |
aside in the trust fund (i) amounts retained for refunds |
under subparagraph (1) and (ii) any amounts necessary to |
meet the reserve account amount and (B) after the State |
Treasurer has transferred from the trust fund to the |
General Revenue Fund 100% of any post-2010 deficiency |
amount. "Reserve account amount" means $15 million in |
fiscal year 2011 and $30 million in each fiscal year |
thereafter. The reserve account amount shall be set aside |
in the trust fund and used as a reserve to be transferred |
to the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund in the event |
the proceeds of taxes imposed under this Section 13 are |
not sufficient to fund the transfer required in |
subparagraph (2). "Post-2010 deficiency amount" means any |
deficiency in transfers from the trust fund to the |
McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund with respect to |
fiscal years 2011 and thereafter. It is the intention of |
this subparagraph (3) that no surplus revenues shall be |
paid to the Authority with respect to any year in which a |
post-2010 deficiency amount has not been satisfied by the |
Authority. |
Moneys received by the Authority as surplus revenues may |
|
be used (i) for the purposes of paying debt service on the |
bonds and notes issued by the Authority, including early |
redemption of those bonds or notes, (ii) for the purposes of |
repair, replacement, and improvement of the grounds, |
buildings, and facilities of the Authority, and (iii) for the |
corporate purposes of the Authority in fiscal years 2011 |
through 2015 in an amount not to exceed $20,000,000 annually |
or $80,000,000 total, which amount shall be reduced $0.75 for |
each dollar of the receipts of the Authority in that year from |
any contract entered into with respect to naming rights at |
McCormick Place under Section 5(m) of this Act. When bonds and |
notes issued under Section 13.2, or bonds or notes issued to |
refund those bonds and notes, are no longer outstanding, the |
balance in the trust fund shall be paid to the Authority. |
(h) The ordinances imposing the taxes authorized by this |
Section shall be repealed when bonds and notes issued under |
Section 13.2 or bonds and notes issued to refund those bonds |
and notes are no longer outstanding. |

Section 65-20. The Illinois Sports Facilities Authority |
Act is amended by changing Section 19 as follows: |
(70 ILCS 3205/19) (from Ch. 85, par. 6019) |
|
Sec. 19. Tax. The Authority may impose an occupation tax |
upon all hotel operators persons engaged in the City of |
Chicago in the business of renting, leasing or letting rooms |
in a hotel , as defined in The Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax |
Act, at a rate not to exceed 2% of the gross rental receipts |
from engaging in business as a hotel operator the renting, |
leasing or letting of hotel rooms located within the City of |
Chicago, excluding, however, from gross rental receipts, the |
proceeds of such renting, leasing or letting of hotel rooms to |
permanent residents of a that hotel and proceeds from the tax |
imposed under subsection (c) of Section 13 of the Metropolitan |
Pier and Exposition Authority Act. |
The tax imposed by the Authority pursuant to this Section |
and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident |
thereof shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The certificate of registration which |
is issued by the Department to a lessor under The Hotel |
Operators' Occupation Tax Act shall permit such registrant to |
engage in a business which is taxable under any ordinance or |
resolution enacted pursuant to this Section without |
registering separately with the Department under such |
ordinance or resolution or under this Section. The Department |
shall have full power to administer and enforce this Section; |
to collect all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose |
of taxes and penalties so collected in the manner provided in |
this Section, and to determine all rights to credit memoranda, |
|
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance with, this |
Section, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
Section shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers and duties, and be subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties and |
definitions of terms, and employ the same modes of procedure, |
as are prescribed in The Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax Act |
(except where that Act is inconsistent herewith), as the same |
is now or may hereafter be amended, as fully as if the |
provisions contained in The Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax |
Act were set forth herein. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in such |
notification from the Department. Such refund shall be paid by |
the State Treasurer out of the amounts held by the State |
Treasurer as trustee for the Authority. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed pursuant to authority |
granted by this Section may reimburse themselves for their tax |
liability for such tax by separately stating such tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax imposed under The Hotel |
Operators' Occupation Tax Act, the municipal tax imposed under |
|
Section 8-3-13 of the Illinois Municipal Code, and the tax |
imposed under Section 13 of the Metropolitan Pier and |
Exposition Authority Act. |
The Department shall forthwith pay over to the State |
Treasurer, ex-officio, as trustee for the Authority, all taxes |
and penalties collected hereunder for deposit in a trust fund |
outside the State Treasury. On or before the 25th day of each |
calendar month, the Department shall certify to the |
Comptroller the amount to be paid to or on behalf of the |
Authority from amounts collected hereunder by the Department, |
and deposited into such trust fund during the second preceding |
calendar month. The amount to be paid to or on behalf of the |
Authority shall be the amount (not including credit memoranda) |
collected hereunder during such second preceding calendar |
month by the Department, less an amount equal to the amount of |
refunds authorized during such second preceding calendar month |
by the Department on behalf of the Authority, and less 4% of |
such balance, which sum shall be retained by the State |
Treasurer to cover the costs incurred by the Department in |
administering and enforcing the provisions of this Section, as |
provided herein. Each such monthly certification by the |
Department shall also certify to the Comptroller the amount to |
be so retained by the State Treasurer for payment into the |
General Revenue Fund of the State Treasury. |
Each monthly certification by the Department shall |
certify, of the amount paid to or on behalf of the Authority, |
|
(i) the portion to be paid to the Authority, (ii) the portion |
to be paid into the General Revenue Fund of the State Treasury |
on behalf of the Authority as repayment of amounts advanced to |
the Authority pursuant to appropriation from the Illinois |
Sports Facilities Fund. |
With respect to each State fiscal year, of the total |
amount to be paid to or on behalf of the Authority, the |
Department shall certify that payments shall first be made |
directly to the Authority in an amount equal to any difference |
between the annual amount certified by the Chairman of the |
Authority pursuant to Section 8.25-4 of the State Finance Act |
and the amount appropriated to the Authority from the Illinois |
Sports Facilities Fund. Next, the Department shall certify |
that payment shall be made into the General Revenue Fund of the |
State Treasury in an amount equal to the difference between |
(i) the lesser of (x) the amount appropriated from the |
Illinois Sports Facilities Fund to the Authority and (y) the |
annual amount certified by the Chairman of the Authority |
pursuant to Section 8.25-4 of the State Finance Act and (ii) |
$10,000,000. The Department shall certify that all additional |
amounts shall be paid to the Authority and used for its |
corporate purposes. |
Within 10 days after receipt, by the Comptroller, of the |
Department's monthly certification of amounts to be paid to or |
on behalf of the Authority and amounts to be paid into the |
General Revenue Fund, the Comptroller shall cause the warrants |
|
to be drawn for the respective amounts in accordance with the |
directions contained in such certification. |
Amounts collected by the Department and paid to the |
Authority pursuant to this Section shall be used for the |
corporate purposes of the Authority. On June 15, 1992 and on |
each June 15 thereafter, the Authority shall repay to the |
State Treasurer all amounts paid to it under this Section and |
otherwise remaining available to the Authority after providing |
for (i) payment of principal and interest on, and other |
payments related to, its obligations issued or to be issued |
under Section 13 of the Act, including any deposits required |
to reserve funds created under any indenture or resolution |
authorizing issuance of the obligations and payments to |
providers of credit enhancement, (ii) payment of obligations |
under the provisions of any management agreement with respect |
to a facility or facilities owned by the Authority or of any |
assistance agreement with respect to any facility for which |
financial assistance is provided under this Act, and payment |
of other capital and operating expenses of the Authority, |
including any deposits required to reserve funds created for |
repair and replacement of capital assets and to meet the |
obligations of the Authority under any management agreement or |
assistance agreement. Amounts repaid by the Authority to the |
State Treasurer hereunder shall be treated as repayment of |
amounts deposited into the Illinois Sports Facilities Fund and |
credited to the Subsidy Account and used for the corporate |
|
purposes of the Authority. The State Treasurer shall deposit |
$5,000,000 of the amount received into the General Revenue |
Fund; thereafter, at the beginning of each fiscal year the |
State Treasurer shall certify to the State Comptroller for all |
prior fiscal years the cumulative amount of any deficiencies |
in repayments to the City of Chicago of amounts in the Local |
Government Distributive Fund that would otherwise have been |
allocated to the City of Chicago under the State Revenue |
Sharing Act but instead were paid into the General Revenue |
Fund under Section 6 of the Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax |
Act and that have not been reimbursed, and the Comptroller |
shall, during the fiscal year at the beginning of which the |
certification was made, cause warrants to be drawn from the |
amount received for the repayment of that cumulative amount to |
the City of Chicago until that cumulative amount has been |
fully reimbursed; thereafter, the State Treasurer shall |
deposit the balance of the amount received into the trust fund |
established outside the State Treasury under subsection (g) of |
Section 13 of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority |
Act. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be |
|
effective on the first day of the second calendar month next |
following the month in which the ordinance or resolution is |
passed. |
If the Authority levies a tax authorized by this Section |
it shall transmit to the Department of Revenue not later than 5 |
days after the adoption of the ordinance or resolution a |
certified copy of the ordinance or resolution imposing such |
tax whereupon the Department of Revenue shall proceed to |
administer and enforce this Section on behalf of the |
Authority. Upon a change in rate of a tax levied hereunder, or |
upon the discontinuance of the tax, the Authority shall not |
later than 5 days after the effective date of the ordinance or |
resolution discontinuing the tax or effecting a change in rate |
transmit to the Department of Revenue a certified copy of the |
ordinance or resolution effecting such change or |
discontinuance. |

ARTICLE 70. |
Section 70-5. The Motor Fuel Tax Law is amended by |
changing Section 2a as follows: |
(35 ILCS 505/2a) (from Ch. 120, par. 418a) |
Sec. 2a. Except as hereinafter provided, on and after |
January 1, 1990 and before January 1, 2030 January 1, 2025 , a |
|
tax of three-tenths of a cent per gallon is imposed upon the |
privilege of being a receiver in this State of fuel for sale or |
use. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the State. |
The tax shall be paid by the receiver in this State who |
first sells or uses fuel. In the case of a sale, the tax shall |
be stated as a separate item on the invoice. |
For the purpose of the tax imposed by this Section, being a |
receiver of "motor fuel" as defined by Section 1.1 of this Act, |
and aviation fuels, home heating oil and kerosene, but |
excluding liquified petroleum gases, is subject to tax without |
regard to whether the fuel is intended to be used for operation |
of motor vehicles on the public highways and waters. However, |
no such tax shall be imposed upon the importation or receipt of |
aviation fuels and kerosene at airports with over 300,000 |
operations per year, for years prior to 1991, and over 170,000 |
operations per year beginning in 1991, located in a city of |
more than 1,000,000 inhabitants for sale to or use by holders |
of certificates of public convenience and necessity or foreign |
air carrier permits, issued by the United States Department of |
Transportation, and their air carrier affiliates, or upon the |
importation or receipt of aviation fuels and kerosene at |
facilities owned or leased by those certificate or permit |
holders and used in their activities at an airport described |
|
above. In addition, no such tax shall be imposed upon the |
importation or receipt of diesel fuel or liquefied natural gas |
sold to or used by a rail carrier registered pursuant to |
Section 18c-7201 of the Illinois Vehicle Code or otherwise |
recognized by the Illinois Commerce Commission as a rail |
carrier, to the extent used directly in railroad operations. |
In addition, no such tax shall be imposed when the sale is made |
with delivery to a purchaser outside this State or when the |
sale is made to a person holding a valid license as a receiver. |
In addition, no tax shall be imposed upon diesel fuel or |
liquefied natural gas consumed or used in the operation of |
ships, barges, or vessels, that are used primarily in or for |
the transportation of property in interstate commerce for hire |
on rivers bordering on this State, if the diesel fuel or |
liquefied natural gas is delivered by a licensed receiver to |
the purchaser's barge, ship, or vessel while it is afloat upon |
that bordering river. A specific notation thereof shall be |
made on the invoices or sales slips covering each sale. |

ARTICLE 75. |
Section 75-5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing |
Sections 2, 3, 3-5, 3-10, 3-55, and 9 and by adding Section |
1.05 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 105/1.05 new) |
Sec. 1.05. Legislative intent; leases. It is the intent of |
the General Assembly in enacting this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly to apply the tax imposed under this |
Act, except as otherwise provided in this Act, to the |
privilege of using in this State tangible personal property, |
other than motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and |
semitrailers, as defined in Section 1-187 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code, that are required to be registered with an |
agency of this State, leased at retail from a retailer, for |
leases in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after January |
1, 2025. |
(35 ILCS 105/2) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.2) |
Sec. 2. Definitions. |
"Use" means the exercise by any person of any right or |
power over tangible personal property incident to the |
|
ownership of that property, or, on and after January 1, 2025, |
incident to the possession or control of, the right to possess |
or control, or a license to use that property through a lease, |
except that it does not include the sale of such property in |
any form as tangible personal property in the regular course |
of business to the extent that such property is not first |
subjected to a use for which it was purchased, and does not |
include the use of such property by its owner for |
demonstration purposes: Provided that the property purchased |
is deemed to be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite |
first being used, to the extent to which it is resold as an |
ingredient of an intentionally produced product or by-product |
of manufacturing. "Use" does not mean the demonstration use or |
interim use of tangible personal property by a retailer before |
he sells that tangible personal property. On and after January |
1, 2025, the lease of tangible personal property to a lessee by |
a retailer who is subject to tax on lease receipts under this |
amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly does not qualify |
as demonstration use or interim use of that property. For |
watercraft or aircraft, if the period of demonstration use or |
interim use by the retailer exceeds 18 months, the retailer |
shall pay on the retailers' original cost price the tax |
imposed by this Act, and no credit for that tax is permitted if |
the watercraft or aircraft is subsequently sold by the |
retailer. "Use" does not mean the physical incorporation of |
tangible personal property, to the extent not first subjected |
|
to a use for which it was purchased, as an ingredient or |
constituent, into other tangible personal property (a) which |
is sold in the regular course of business or (b) which the |
person incorporating such ingredient or constituent therein |
has undertaken at the time of such purchase to cause to be |
transported in interstate commerce to destinations outside the |
State of Illinois: Provided that the property purchased is |
deemed to be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite |
first being used, to the extent to which it is resold as an |
ingredient of an intentionally produced product or by-product |
of manufacturing. |
"Lease" means a transfer of the possession or control of, |
the right to possess or control, or a license to use, but not |
title to, tangible personal property for a fixed or |
indeterminate term for consideration, regardless of the name |
by which the transaction is called. "Lease" does not include a |
lease entered into merely as a security agreement that does |
not involve a transfer of possession or control from the |
lessor to the lessee. |
On and after January 1, 2025, the term "sale", when used in |
this Act, includes a lease. |
"Watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 |
watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration |
and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped |
with an inboard motor. |
"Purchase at retail" means the acquisition of the |
|
ownership of , the or title to , the possession or control of, |
the right to possess or control, or a license to use, tangible |
personal property through a sale at retail. |
"Purchaser" means anyone who, through a sale at retail, |
acquires the ownership of , the title to, the possession or |
control of, the right to possess or control, or a license to |
use, tangible personal property for a valuable consideration. |
"Sale at retail" means any transfer of the ownership of or |
title to tangible personal property to a purchaser, for the |
purpose of use, and not for the purpose of resale in any form |
as tangible personal property to the extent not first |
subjected to a use for which it was purchased, for a valuable |
consideration: Provided that the property purchased is deemed |
to be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite first being |
used, to the extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of |
an intentionally produced product or by-product of |
manufacturing. For this purpose, slag produced as an incident |
to manufacturing pig iron or steel and sold is considered to be |
an intentionally produced by-product of manufacturing. "Sale |
at retail" includes any such transfer made for resale unless |
made in compliance with Section 2c of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, as incorporated by reference into Section |
12 of this Act. Transactions whereby the possession of the |
property is transferred but the seller retains the title as |
security for payment of the selling price are sales. |
"Sale at retail" shall also be construed to include any |
|
Illinois florist's sales transaction in which the purchase |
order is received in Illinois by a florist and the sale is for |
use or consumption, but the Illinois florist has a florist in |
another state deliver the property to the purchaser or the |
purchaser's donee in such other state. |
Nonreusable tangible personal property that is used by |
persons engaged in the business of operating a restaurant, |
cafeteria, or drive-in is a sale for resale when it is |
transferred to customers in the ordinary course of business as |
part of the sale of food or beverages and is used to deliver, |
package, or consume food or beverages, regardless of where |
consumption of the food or beverages occurs. Examples of those |
items include, but are not limited to nonreusable, paper and |
plastic cups, plates, baskets, boxes, sleeves, buckets or |
other containers, utensils, straws, placemats, napkins, doggie |
bags, and wrapping or packaging materials that are transferred |
to customers as part of the sale of food or beverages in the |
ordinary course of business. |
The purchase, employment and transfer of such tangible |
personal property as newsprint and ink for the primary purpose |
of conveying news (with or without other information) is not a |
purchase, use or sale of tangible personal property. |
"Selling price" means the consideration for a sale valued |
in money whether received in money or otherwise, including |
cash, credits, property other than as hereinafter provided, |
and services, but, prior to January 1, 2020 and beginning |
|
again on January 1, 2022, not including the value of or credit |
given for traded-in tangible personal property where the item |
that is traded-in is of like kind and character as that which |
is being sold; beginning January 1, 2020 and until January 1, |
2022, "selling price" includes the portion of the value of or |
credit given for traded-in motor vehicles of the First |
Division as defined in Section 1-146 of the Illinois Vehicle |
Code of like kind and character as that which is being sold |
that exceeds $10,000. "Selling price" shall be determined |
without any deduction on account of the cost of the property |
sold, the cost of materials used, labor or service cost or any |
other expense whatsoever, but does not include interest or |
finance charges which appear as separate items on the bill of |
sale or sales contract nor charges that are added to prices by |
sellers on account of the seller's tax liability under the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, or on account of the seller's |
duty to collect, from the purchaser, the tax that is imposed by |
this Act, or, except as otherwise provided with respect to any |
cigarette tax imposed by a home rule unit, on account of the |
seller's tax liability under any local occupation tax |
administered by the Department, or, except as otherwise |
provided with respect to any cigarette tax imposed by a home |
rule unit on account of the seller's duty to collect, from the |
purchasers, the tax that is imposed under any local use tax |
administered by the Department. Effective December 1, 1985, |
"selling price" shall include charges that are added to prices |
|
by sellers on account of the seller's tax liability under the |
Cigarette Tax Act, on account of the seller's duty to collect, |
from the purchaser, the tax imposed under the Cigarette Use |
Tax Act, and on account of the seller's duty to collect, from |
the purchaser, any cigarette tax imposed by a home rule unit. |
The provisions of this paragraph, which provides only for |
an alternative meaning of "selling price" with respect to the |
sale of certain motor vehicles incident to the contemporaneous |
lease of those motor vehicles, continue in effect and are not |
changed by the tax on leases implemented by this amendatory |
Act of the 103rd General Assembly. Notwithstanding any law to |
the contrary, for any motor vehicle, as defined in Section |
1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that is sold on or after January 1, |
2015 for the purpose of leasing the vehicle for a defined |
period that is longer than one year and (1) is a motor vehicle |
of the second division that: (A) is a self-contained motor |
vehicle designed or permanently converted to provide living |
quarters for recreational, camping, or travel use, with direct |
walk through access to the living quarters from the driver's |
seat; (B) is of the van configuration designed for the |
transportation of not less than 7 nor more than 16 passengers; |
or (C) has a gross vehicle weight rating of 8,000 pounds or |
less or (2) is a motor vehicle of the first division, "selling |
price" or "amount of sale" means the consideration received by |
the lessor pursuant to the lease contract, including amounts |
due at lease signing and all monthly or other regular payments |
|
charged over the term of the lease. Also included in the |
selling price is any amount received by the lessor from the |
lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the |
time the lease is executed, including, but not limited to, |
excess mileage charges and charges for excess wear and tear. |
For sales that occur in Illinois, with respect to any amount |
received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle |
that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, the |
lessor who purchased the motor vehicle does not incur the tax |
imposed by the Use Tax Act on those amounts, and the retailer |
who makes the retail sale of the motor vehicle to the lessor is |
not required to collect the tax imposed by this Act or to pay |
the tax imposed by the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act on those |
amounts. However, the lessor who purchased the motor vehicle |
assumes the liability for reporting and paying the tax on |
those amounts directly to the Department in the same form |
(Illinois Retailers' Occupation Tax, and local retailers' |
occupation taxes, if applicable) in which the retailer would |
have reported and paid such tax if the retailer had accounted |
for the tax to the Department. For amounts received by the |
lessor from the lessee that are not calculated at the time the |
lease is executed, the lessor must file the return and pay the |
tax to the Department by the due date otherwise required by |
this Act for returns other than transaction returns. If the |
retailer is entitled under this Act to a discount for |
collecting and remitting the tax imposed under this Act to the |
|
Department with respect to the sale of the motor vehicle to the |
lessor, then the right to the discount provided in this Act |
shall be transferred to the lessor with respect to the tax paid |
by the lessor for any amount received by the lessor from the |
lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the |
time the lease is executed; provided that the discount is only |
allowed if the return is timely filed and for amounts timely |
paid. The "selling price" of a motor vehicle that is sold on or |
after January 1, 2015 for the purpose of leasing for a defined |
period of longer than one year shall not be reduced by the |
value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal |
property owned by the lessor, nor shall it be reduced by the |
value of or credit given for traded-in tangible personal |
property owned by the lessee, regardless of whether the |
trade-in value thereof is assigned by the lessee to the |
lessor. In the case of a motor vehicle that is sold for the |
purpose of leasing for a defined period of longer than one |
year, the sale occurs at the time of the delivery of the |
vehicle, regardless of the due date of any lease payments. A |
lessor who incurs a Retailers' Occupation Tax liability on the |
sale of a motor vehicle coming off lease may not take a credit |
against that liability for the Use Tax the lessor paid upon the |
purchase of the motor vehicle (or for any tax the lessor paid |
with respect to any amount received by the lessor from the |
lessee for the leased vehicle that was not calculated at the |
time the lease was executed) if the selling price of the motor |
|
vehicle at the time of purchase was calculated using the |
definition of "selling price" as defined in this paragraph. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, lessors shall file all returns and make all payments |
required under this paragraph to the Department by electronic |
means in the manner and form as required by the Department. |
This paragraph does not apply to leases of motor vehicles for |
which, at the time the lease is entered into, the term of the |
lease is not a defined period, including leases with a defined |
initial period with the option to continue the lease on a |
month-to-month or other basis beyond the initial defined |
period. |
The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally |
construed (including but not limited to any form of motor |
vehicle for any form of motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or |
agricultural implement for any other kind of farm or |
agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item |
which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from |
retailers' occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or |
occasional sale. |
"Department" means the Department of Revenue. |
"Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, |
association, joint stock company, joint adventure, public or |
private corporation, limited liability company, or a receiver, |
executor, trustee, guardian or other representative appointed |
by order of any court. |
|
"Retailer" means and includes every person engaged in the |
business of making sales , including, on and after January 1, |
2025, leases, at retail as defined in this Section. With |
respect to leases, a "retailer" also means a "lessor", except |
as otherwise provided in this Act. |
A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged |
(or who habitually engages) in selling tangible personal |
property at retail is a retailer hereunder with respect to |
such sales (and not primarily in a service occupation) |
notwithstanding the fact that such person designs and produces |
such tangible personal property on special order for the |
purchaser and in such a way as to render the property of value |
only to such purchaser, if such tangible personal property so |
produced on special order serves substantially the same |
function as stock or standard items of tangible personal |
property that are sold at retail. |
A person whose activities are organized and conducted |
primarily as a not-for-profit service enterprise, and who |
engages in selling tangible personal property at retail |
(whether to the public or merely to members and their guests) |
is a retailer with respect to such transactions, excepting |
only a person organized and operated exclusively for |
charitable, religious or educational purposes either (1), to |
the extent of sales by such person to its members, students, |
patients or inmates of tangible personal property to be used |
primarily for the purposes of such person, or (2), to the |
|
extent of sales by such person of tangible personal property |
which is not sold or offered for sale by persons organized for |
profit. The selling of school books and school supplies by |
schools at retail to students is not "primarily for the |
purposes of" the school which does such selling. This |
paragraph does not apply to nor subject to taxation occasional |
dinners, social or similar activities of a person organized |
and operated exclusively for charitable, religious or |
educational purposes, whether or not such activities are open |
to the public. |
A person who is the recipient of a grant or contract under |
Title VII of the Older Americans Act of 1965 (P.L. 92-258) and |
serves meals to participants in the federal Nutrition Program |
for the Elderly in return for contributions established in |
amount by the individual participant pursuant to a schedule of |
suggested fees as provided for in the federal Act is not a |
retailer under this Act with respect to such transactions. |
Persons who engage in the business of transferring |
tangible personal property upon the redemption of trading |
stamps are retailers hereunder when engaged in such business. |
The isolated or occasional sale of tangible personal |
property at retail by a person who does not hold himself out as |
being engaged (or who does not habitually engage) in selling |
such tangible personal property at retail or a sale through a |
bulk vending machine does not make such person a retailer |
hereunder. However, any person who is engaged in a business |
|
which is not subject to the tax imposed by the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act because of involving the sale of or a |
contract to sell real estate or a construction contract to |
improve real estate, but who, in the course of conducting such |
business, transfers tangible personal property to users or |
consumers in the finished form in which it was purchased, and |
which does not become real estate, under any provision of a |
construction contract or real estate sale or real estate sales |
agreement entered into with some other person arising out of |
or because of such nontaxable business, is a retailer to the |
extent of the value of the tangible personal property so |
transferred. If, in such transaction, a separate charge is |
made for the tangible personal property so transferred, the |
value of such property, for the purposes of this Act, is the |
amount so separately charged, but not less than the cost of |
such property to the transferor; if no separate charge is |
made, the value of such property, for the purposes of this Act, |
is the cost to the transferor of such tangible personal |
property. |
"Retailer maintaining a place of business in this State", |
or any like term, means and includes any of the following |
retailers: |
(1) A retailer having or maintaining within this |
State, directly or by a subsidiary, an office, |
distribution house, sales house, warehouse or other place |
of business, or any agent or other representative |
|
operating within this State under the authority of the |
retailer or its subsidiary, irrespective of whether such |
place of business or agent or other representative is |
located here permanently or temporarily, or whether such |
retailer or subsidiary is licensed to do business in this |
State. However, the ownership of property that is located |
at the premises of a printer with which the retailer has |
contracted for printing and that consists of the final |
printed product, property that becomes a part of the final |
printed product, or copy from which the printed product is |
produced shall not result in the retailer being deemed to |
have or maintain an office, distribution house, sales |
house, warehouse, or other place of business within this |
State. |
(1.1) A retailer having a contract with a person |
located in this State under which the person, for a |
commission or other consideration based upon the sale of |
tangible personal property by the retailer, directly or |
indirectly refers potential customers to the retailer by |
providing to the potential customers a promotional code or |
other mechanism that allows the retailer to track |
purchases referred by such persons. Examples of mechanisms |
that allow the retailer to track purchases referred by |
such persons include but are not limited to the use of a |
link on the person's Internet website, promotional codes |
distributed through the person's hand-delivered or mailed |
|
material, and promotional codes distributed by the person |
through radio or other broadcast media. The provisions of |
this paragraph (1.1) shall apply only if the cumulative |
gross receipts from sales of tangible personal property by |
the retailer to customers who are referred to the retailer |
by all persons in this State under such contracts exceed |
$10,000 during the preceding 4 quarterly periods ending on |
the last day of March, June, September, and December. A |
retailer meeting the requirements of this paragraph (1.1) |
shall be presumed to be maintaining a place of business in |
this State but may rebut this presumption by submitting |
proof that the referrals or other activities pursued |
within this State by such persons were not sufficient to |
meet the nexus standards of the United States Constitution |
during the preceding 4 quarterly periods. |
(1.2) Beginning July 1, 2011, a retailer having a |
contract with a person located in this State under which: |
(A) the retailer sells the same or substantially |
similar line of products as the person located in this |
State and does so using an identical or substantially |
similar name, trade name, or trademark as the person |
located in this State; and |
(B) the retailer provides a commission or other |
consideration to the person located in this State |
based upon the sale of tangible personal property by |
the retailer. |
|
The provisions of this paragraph (1.2) shall apply |
only if the cumulative gross receipts from sales of |
tangible personal property by the retailer to customers in |
this State under all such contracts exceed $10,000 during |
the preceding 4 quarterly periods ending on the last day |
of March, June, September, and December. |

tangible personal property to purchasers in Illinois |
are $100,000 or more; or |
(B) the retailer enters into 200 or more separate |
transactions for the sale of tangible personal |
property to purchasers in Illinois. |
The retailer shall determine on a quarterly basis, |
ending on the last day of March, June, September, and |
December, whether he or she meets the criteria of either |
subparagraph (A) or (B) of this paragraph (9) for the |
|
preceding 12-month period. If the retailer meets the |
threshold of either subparagraph (A) or (B) for a 12-month |
period, he or she is considered a retailer maintaining a |
place of business in this State and is required to collect |
and remit the tax imposed under this Act and file returns |
for one year. At the end of that one-year period, the |
retailer shall determine whether he or she met the |
threshold of either subparagraph (A) or (B) during the |
preceding 12-month period. If the retailer met the |
criteria in either subparagraph (A) or (B) for the |
preceding 12-month period, he or she is considered a |
retailer maintaining a place of business in this State and |
is required to collect and remit the tax imposed under |
this Act and file returns for the subsequent year. If at |
the end of a one-year period a retailer that was required |
to collect and remit the tax imposed under this Act |
determines that he or she did not meet the threshold in |
either subparagraph (A) or (B) during the preceding |
12-month period, the retailer shall subsequently determine |
on a quarterly basis, ending on the last day of March, |
June, September, and December, whether he or she meets the |
threshold of either subparagraph (A) or (B) for the |
preceding 12-month period. |
Beginning January 1, 2020, neither the gross receipts |
from nor the number of separate transactions for sales of |

marketplace facilitator pursuant to Section 2d of this Act |
shall be included for purposes of determining whether he |
or she has met the thresholds of this paragraph (9). |

facilitator that meets a threshold set forth in subsection |
(b) of Section 2d of this Act. |

Sec. 3. Tax imposed. A tax is imposed upon the privilege of |
using in this State tangible personal property purchased , |
which, on and after January 1, 2025, includes leased, at |
retail from a retailer, including computer software, and |
including photographs, negatives, and positives that are the |
product of photoprocessing, but not including products of |
photoprocessing produced for use in motion pictures for |
commercial exhibition. Beginning January 1, 2001, prepaid |
|
telephone calling arrangements shall be considered tangible |
personal property subject to the tax imposed under this Act |
regardless of the form in which those arrangements may be |
embodied, transmitted, or fixed by any method now known or |
hereafter developed. Purchases of (1) electricity delivered to |
customers by wire; (2) natural or artificial gas that is |
delivered to customers through pipes, pipelines, or mains; and |
(3) water that is delivered to customers through pipes, |
pipelines, or mains are not subject to tax under this Act. The |
provisions of this amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly |
are declaratory of existing law as to the meaning and scope of |
this Act. |
The imposition of the tax under this Act on the privilege |
of using tangible personal property leased at retail applies |
to leases of tangible personal property in effect, entered |
into, or renewed on or after January 1, 2025. In the case of |
leases, except as otherwise provided in this Act, the lessor, |
in collecting the tax, may collect for each tax return period, |
only the tax applicable to that part of the selling price |
actually received during such tax return period. |
The inclusion of leases in the tax imposed under this Act |
by this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly does not, |
however, extend to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and |
semitrailers, as defined in Section 1-187 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code, that are required to be registered with an |
agency of this State. The taxation of these items shall |
|
continue in effect as prior to the effective date of the |
changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly (i.e. dealers owe retailers' occupation |
tax, lessors owe use tax, and lessees are not subject to |
retailers' occupation or use tax). |

the tax imposed under this Act or the Service Use Tax Act, as |
the case may be, based on the fair market value of the property |
at the time the non-qualifying use occurs. No lessor shall |
collect or attempt to collect an amount (however designated) |
that purports to reimburse that lessor for the tax imposed by |

Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in this |
Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of 6.25% of |
either the selling price or the fair market value, if any, of |
the tangible personal property , which, on and after January 1, |
2025, includes leases of tangible personal property . In all |
cases where property functionally used or consumed is the same |
as the property that was purchased at retail, then the tax is |
imposed on the selling price of the property. In all cases |

Section "fair market value" means the price at which property |
would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing |
seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell and |
both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. The |
fair market value shall be established by Illinois sales by |
the taxpayer of the same property as that functionally used or |
consumed, or if there are no such sales by the taxpayer, then |

character in Illinois. |

Sec. 3-55. Multistate exemption. To prevent actual or |
|
likely multistate taxation, the tax imposed by this Act does |
not apply to the use of tangible personal property in this |
State under the following circumstances: |
(a) The use, in this State, of tangible personal property |
acquired outside this State by a nonresident individual and |
brought into this State by the individual for his or her own |
use while temporarily within this State or while passing |
through this State. |
(b) (Blank). |
(c) The use, in this State, by owners or , lessors, |
lessees, or shippers of tangible personal property that is |
utilized by interstate carriers for hire for use as rolling |
stock moving in interstate commerce as long as so used by the |
interstate carriers for hire, and equipment operated by a |
telecommunications provider, licensed as a common carrier by |
the Federal Communications Commission, which is permanently |
installed in or affixed to aircraft moving in interstate |
commerce. |
(d) The use, in this State, of tangible personal property |
that is acquired outside this State and caused to be brought |
into this State by a person who has already paid a tax in |
another State in respect to the sale, purchase, or use of that |
property, to the extent of the amount of the tax properly due |
and paid in the other State. |
(e) The temporary storage, in this State, of tangible |
personal property that is acquired outside this State and |
|
that, after being brought into this State and stored here |
temporarily, is used solely outside this State or is |
physically attached to or incorporated into other tangible |
personal property that is used solely outside this State, or |
is altered by converting, fabricating, manufacturing, |
printing, processing, or shaping, and, as altered, is used |
solely outside this State. |
(f) The temporary storage in this State of building |
materials and fixtures that are acquired either in this State |
or outside this State by an Illinois registered combination |
retailer and construction contractor, and that the purchaser |
thereafter uses outside this State by incorporating that |
property into real estate located outside this State. |
(g) The use or purchase of tangible personal property by a |
common carrier by rail or motor that receives the physical |
possession of the property in Illinois, and that transports |
the property, or shares with another common carrier in the |
transportation of the property, out of Illinois on a standard |
uniform bill of lading showing the seller of the property as |
the shipper or consignor of the property to a destination |
outside Illinois, for use outside Illinois. |
(h) Except as provided in subsection (h-1), the use, in |
this State, of a motor vehicle that was sold in this State to a |
nonresident, even though the motor vehicle is delivered to the |
nonresident in this State, if the motor vehicle is not to be |
titled in this State, and if a drive-away permit is issued to |
|
the motor vehicle as provided in Section 3-603 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code or if the nonresident purchaser has vehicle |
registration plates to transfer to the motor vehicle upon |
returning to his or her home state. The issuance of the |
drive-away permit or having the out-of-state registration |
plates to be transferred shall be prima facie evidence that |
the motor vehicle will not be titled in this State. |
(h-1) The exemption under subsection (h) does not apply if |
the state in which the motor vehicle will be titled does not |
allow a reciprocal exemption for the use in that state of a |
motor vehicle sold and delivered in that state to an Illinois |

Act on the sale of a motor vehicle in this State to a resident |
of another state that does not allow a reciprocal exemption |

taxable property in the state in which the purchaser is a |
resident, except that the tax shall not exceed the tax that |
would otherwise be imposed under this Act. At the time of the |
sale, the purchaser shall execute a statement, signed under |
penalty of perjury, of his or her intent to title the vehicle |
in the state in which the purchaser is a resident within 30 |
days after the sale and of the fact of the payment to the State |
of Illinois of tax in an amount equivalent to the state's rate |
of tax on taxable property in his or her state of residence and |
shall submit the statement to the appropriate tax collection |
agency in his or her state of residence. In addition, the |
|
retailer must retain a signed copy of the statement in his or |
her records. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to |
require the removal of the vehicle from this state following |
the filing of an intent to title the vehicle in the purchaser's |
state of residence if the purchaser titles the vehicle in his |
or her state of residence within 30 days after the date of |
sale. The tax collected under this Act in accordance with this |
subsection (h-1) shall be proportionately distributed as if |
the tax were collected at the 6.25% general rate imposed under |
this Act. |
(h-2) The following exemptions apply with respect to |
certain aircraft: |
(1) Beginning on July 1, 2007, no tax is imposed under |

include the name and address of the purchaser, the |
address of the location where the aircraft is to be |
titled or registered, the address of the primary |
physical location of the aircraft, and other |
information that the Department may reasonably |
require. |
If tax becomes due under this subsection (h-2) because of |
the purchaser's use of the aircraft in this State, the |
purchaser shall file a return with the Department and pay the |
|
tax on the fair market value of the aircraft. This return and |
payment of the tax must be made no later than 30 days after the |
aircraft is used in a taxable manner in this State. The tax is |
based on the fair market value of the aircraft on the date that |
it is first used in a taxable manner in this State. |
For purposes of this subsection (h-2): |
"Based in this State" means hangared, stored, or otherwise |
used, excluding post-sale customizations as defined in this |
Section, for 10 or more days in each 12-month period |

(j) Beginning on January 1, 2002 and through June 30, |
2016, the use of tangible personal property purchased from an |

the property in Illinois, temporarily store the property in |
Illinois (i) for the purpose of subsequently transporting it |
outside this State for use or consumption thereafter solely |
outside this State or (ii) for the purpose of being processed, |
fabricated, or manufactured into, attached to, or incorporated |
into other tangible personal property to be transported |
outside this State and thereafter used or consumed solely |
outside this State. The Director of Revenue shall, pursuant to |

Procedure Act, issue a permit to any taxpayer in good standing |
with the Department who is eligible for the exemption under |
this subsection (j). The permit issued under this subsection |
(j) shall authorize the holder, to the extent and in the manner |

(35 ILCS 105/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9) |
Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, |
and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency |
of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect |
the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the |
amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time |
when he is required to file his return for the period during |
which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to |
January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 |
per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to |
reimburse the retailer for expenses incurred in collecting the |
tax, keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting |
the tax and supplying data to the Department on request. When |
determining the discount allowed under this Section, retailers |
shall include the amount of tax that would have been due at the |
6.25% rate but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales tax holiday |
items under Public Act 102-700. The discount under this |
Section is not allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on |
aviation fuel that is subject to the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. When determining |
the discount allowed under this Section, retailers shall |
include the amount of tax that would have been due at the 1% |
rate but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700. In |
the case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a |
transaction by transaction basis, as provided in this Section, |
such discount shall be taken with each such tax remittance |
|
instead of when such retailer files his periodic return. The |
discount allowed under this Section is allowed only for |
returns that are filed in the manner required by this Act. The |
Department may disallow the discount for retailers whose |
certificate of registration is revoked at the time the return |
is filed, but only if the Department's decision to revoke the |
certificate of registration has become final. A retailer need |
not remit that part of any tax collected by him to the extent |
that he is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed by |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the sale of |
the same property. |
Where such tangible personal property is sold under a |
conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale |
wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is |
extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is |
filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of |
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
In the case of leases, except as otherwise provided in |
this Act, the lessor, in collecting the tax, may collect for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of |
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
|
Except as provided in this Section, on or before the |
twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file |
a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return shall |
be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and shall |
furnish such information as the Department may reasonably |
require. The return shall include the gross receipts on food |
for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises |
where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, food |
consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft drinks, |
and food that has been prepared for immediate consumption) |
which were received during the preceding calendar month, |
quarter, or year, as appropriate, and upon which tax would |
have been due but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act |
102-700. The return shall also include the amount of tax that |
would have been due on food for human consumption that is to be |
consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption) but for the 0% rate imposed under |
Public Act 102-700. |
On and after January 1, 2018, except for returns required |
to be filed prior to January 1, 2023 for motor vehicles, |
watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required to be |
registered with an agency of this State, with respect to |
retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, |
all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
|
filed electronically. On and after January 1, 2023, with |
respect to retailers whose annual gross receipts average |
$20,000 or more, all returns required to be filed pursuant to |
this Act, including, but not limited to, returns for motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State, shall be filed |
electronically. Retailers who demonstrate that they do not |
have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in filing |
electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before |
the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in this State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month from sales of |
tangible personal property by him during such preceding |
calendar month, including receipts from charge and time |
sales, but less all deductions allowed by law; |
|
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; |
5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Each retailer required or authorized to collect the tax |
imposed by this Act on aviation fuel sold at retail in this |
State during the preceding calendar month shall, instead of |
reporting and paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise |
required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate |
aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the |
return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section. |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers collecting tax on aviation fuel shall file |
all aviation fuel tax returns and shall make all aviation fuel |
tax payments by electronic means in the manner and form |
required by the Department. For purposes of this Section, |
"aviation fuel" means jet fuel and aviation gasoline. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
|
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" means the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
|
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, the |
Service Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the preceding 4 |
complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the |
Department each month by the 20th day of the month next |
following the month during which such tax liability is |
incurred and shall make payments to the Department on or |
before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during |
which such liability is incurred. On and after October 1, |
|
2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was |
$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began |
prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month |
or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the |
average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department |
for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the |
month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability |
in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985, and |
prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during |
which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment |
shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability |
|
for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or |
after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal |
to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of |
the preceding year. If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and |
prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar |
month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount |
of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the |
final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. |
Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
|
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for change in such taxpayer's reporting status. On |
and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status |
unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not |
likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall |
be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
1.25% in Public Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not |
occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, |
2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's |
|
liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" |
shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public |
Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. |
Quarter monthly payment status shall be determined under this |
paragraph as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 |
on food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the |
premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, |
food consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft |
drinks, and food that has been prepared for immediate |
consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly payments |
due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and through |
June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year" shall be determined as |
if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 had not |
occurred. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at |
the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the |
taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the |
difference between the minimum amount due and the amount of |
such quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments |
previously due as provided in this Section. The Department |
shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the |
quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment |
dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly |
basis. |
|
If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds |
the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the |
Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return, |
the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum |
no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which |
memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department |
in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the |
taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a |
similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, |
in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be |
prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess |
payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made |
after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued, |
unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made, |
the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax |
liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the |
Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax 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 |
taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall |
be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the |
credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be |
|
liable for penalties and interest on such difference. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to |
the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for |
April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of |
such year; with the return for July, August and September of a |
given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the |
return for October, November and December of a given year |
being due by January 20 of the following year. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or |
quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax |
liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the |
case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business |
which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act, |
such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the |
|
Department not more than one month after discontinuing such |
business. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this |
Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal |
property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be |
prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return |
for each such item of tangible personal property which the |
retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a |
retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers |
transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or |
trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or |
trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer |
of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers |
more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer |
to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as |
provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may |
report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor |
vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the |
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means |
a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section |
3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal |
watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
|
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the |
business of leasing or renting such items and who, in |
connection with such business, sells any such item to a |
retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to |
meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting |
the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, |
or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the |
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form on or before the 20th of the month following the |
month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed |
under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the |
manner and form as required by the Department. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of motor |
vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the |
Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller; |
the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the |
selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
|
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such |
other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the |
Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the |
Department may reasonably require. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft |
and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the |
name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling |
price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and |
such other information as the Department may reasonably |
|
require. |
Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later |
than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is |
being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner |
than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting |
return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax |
that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the |
Department by way of the State agency with which, or State |
officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be |
titled or registered (if titling or registration is required) |
if the Department and such agency or State officer determine |
that this procedure will expedite the processing of |
applications for title or registration. |
With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer |
shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit |
satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is |
the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the |
Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt |
(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied |
that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser |
may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with |
whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property |
that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in |
support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois |
certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such |
tangible personal property. |
|
No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this |
Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the |
retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other |
evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration |
is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has |
paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The |
Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the |
mandate of this paragraph. |
If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer |
wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment |
of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the |
retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not |
paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact |
of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department |
being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit |
the information required by the transaction reporting return |
and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to |
the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption |
determination, in which event the transaction reporting return |
and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be |
credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account |
with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount |
provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays |
the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the |
same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted |
if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer. |
|
Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the |
selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and |
the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal |
property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to |
the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the |
purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When |
filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax |
to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax |
so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax |
which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the |
Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax |
to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by |
such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the |
amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no |
deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the |
purchaser. |
Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also |
include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax |
covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible |
personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer, |
but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected |
from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall |
remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such |
return. |
If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the |
Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint |
|
return which will enable retailers, who are required to file |
returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act, to furnish all the return information required by both |
Acts on the one form. |
Where the retailer has more than one business registered |
with the Department under separate registration under this |
Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a |
single return covering all such registered businesses, but |
shall file separate returns for each such registered business. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special |
fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, the net |
revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax |
imposed under this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate on the selling price of tangible personal |
property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a |
retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of this |
State's government. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special |
fund in the State Treasury, 20% of the net revenue realized for |
the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on the selling |
price of tangible personal property, other than (i) tangible |
|
personal property which is purchased outside Illinois at |
retail from a retailer and which is titled or registered by an |
agency of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel |
only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuels Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% |
rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any |
month, the tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in |
Section 3-6, is imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the |
Department shall pay 100% of the net revenue realized for that |
month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of sales tax |
|
holiday items into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of tangible personal property which is |
purchased outside Illinois at retail from a retailer and which |
is titled or registered by an agency of this State's |
government. |
Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to |
an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of |
candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had |
been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that |
are now taxed at 6.25%. |
Beginning July 1, 2011, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of sorbents used in Illinois in the |
process of sorbent injection as used to comply with the |
Environmental Protection Act or the federal Clean Air Act, but |
the total payment into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund under this |
Act and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed |
$2,000,000 in any fiscal year. |
Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds |
|
collected under this Act, the Service Use Tax Act, the Service |
Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an |
amount equal to the average monthly deficit in the Underground |
Storage Tank Fund during the prior year, as certified annually |
by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total |
payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, |
the Service Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 |
in any State fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the |
"average monthly deficit" shall be equal to the difference |
between the average monthly claims for payment by the fund and |
the average monthly revenues deposited into the fund, |
excluding payments made pursuant to this paragraph. |
Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys |
received by the Department under this Act, the Service Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, each month the Department shall deposit |
$500,000 into the State Crime Laboratory Fund. |
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on |
and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in any fiscal |
year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required |
to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3 |
|
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax |
Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the |
Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts being hereinafter called |
the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act |
Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois |
Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be |
less than the Annual Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), an amount equal to the |
difference shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois |
Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant to |
the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the last |
business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount |
required to be deposited into the Build Illinois Bond Account |
in the Build Illinois Fund during such month and (2) the amount |
transferred during such month to the Build Illinois Fund from |
the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less |
than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to |
the difference shall be immediately paid into the Build |
Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided, that in no |
event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso |
result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund |
pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of |
the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual |
Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided, |
|
that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under |
this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the |
aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture |
securing Bonds issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build |
Illinois Bond Act is sufficient, taking into account any |
future investment income, to fully provide, in accordance with |
such indenture, for the defeasance of or the payment of the |
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds |
secured by such indenture and on any Bonds expected to be |
issued thereafter and all fees and costs payable with respect |
thereto, all as certified by the Director of the Bureau of the |
Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If on |
the last business day of any month in which Bonds are |
outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the |
aggregate of the moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond |
Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less |
than the amount required to be transferred in such month from |
the Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond |
Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the |
Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such deficiency |
shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois |
Fund; provided, however, that any amounts paid to the Build |
Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this sentence |
shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence and shall reduce the amount |
|
otherwise payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence. The moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited |
into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim |
and charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond |
Act. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |
as provided in the preceding paragraph or in any amendment |
thereto hereafter enacted, the following specified monthly |
installment of the amount requested in the certificate of the |
Chairman of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority |
provided under Section 8.25f of the State Finance Act, but not |
in excess of the sums designated as "Total Deposit", shall be |
deposited in the aggregate from collections under Section 9 of |
the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, Section |
9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, and Section 3 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act into the McCormick Place |
Expansion Project Fund in the specified fiscal years. |

Beginning July 20, 1993 and in each month of each fiscal |

the State Treasurer in the respective month under subsection |

shall be deposited into the McCormick Place Expansion Project |
Fund, until the full amount requested for the fiscal year, but |
not in excess of the amount specified above as "Total |
Deposit", has been deposited. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Capital Projects |
Fund, the Clean Air Act Permit Fund, the Build Illinois Fund, |
and the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund pursuant to the |
preceding paragraphs or in any amendments thereto hereafter |
enacted, for aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, |
the Department shall each month deposit into the Aviation Fuel |
Sales Tax Refund Fund an amount estimated by the Department to |
be required for refunds of the 80% portion of the tax on |
aviation fuel under this Act. The Department shall only |
deposit moneys into the Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund |
under this paragraph for so long as the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the State. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |
and the McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund pursuant to the |
preceding paragraphs or in any amendments thereto hereafter |
enacted, beginning July 1, 1993 and ending on September 30, |
2013, the Department shall each month pay into the Illinois |

Sec. 2. Definitions. In this Act: |
"Use" means the exercise by any person of any right or |
power over tangible personal property incident to the |

but does not include the sale or use for demonstration by him |
of that property in any form as tangible personal property in |
the regular course of business. "Use" does not mean the |
interim use of tangible personal property . On and after |
January 1, 2025, the lease of tangible personal property to a |
lessee by a serviceman who is subject to tax on lease receipts |
under this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly does |
not qualify as demonstration use or interim use of that |
property. "Use" does not mean nor the physical incorporation |
of tangible personal property, as an ingredient or |
constituent, into other tangible personal property, (a) which |
is sold in the regular course of business or (b) which the |
person incorporating such ingredient or constituent therein |
has undertaken at the time of such purchase to cause to be |
transported in interstate commerce to destinations outside the |
State of Illinois. |
"Lease" means a transfer of the possession or control of, |
|
the right to possess or control, or a license to use, but not |
title to, tangible personal property for a fixed or |
indeterminate term for consideration, regardless of the name |
by which the transaction is called. "Lease" does not include a |
lease entered into merely as a security agreement that does |
not involve a transfer of possession from the lessor to the |
lessee. |

this Act with respect to tangible personal property, includes |
a lease. |
"Purchased from a serviceman" means the acquisition of the |
ownership of, the or title to, the possession or control of, |
the right to possess or control, or a license to use, tangible |
personal property through a sale of service. |

service, acquires the ownership of, the or title to, the |
possession or control of, the right to possess or control, or a |
license to use, any tangible personal property. |

serviceman for a purchase , including, on and after January 1, |
2025, a lease, valued in money, whether paid in money or |
otherwise, including cash, credits and services, and shall be |
determined without any deduction on account of the supplier's |
cost of the property sold or on account of any other expense |
incurred by the supplier. When a serviceman contracts out part |
or all of the services required in his sale of service, it |
|
shall be presumed that the cost price to the serviceman of the |
property transferred to him or her by his or her subcontractor |
is equal to 50% of the subcontractor's charges to the |
serviceman in the absence of proof of the consideration paid |
by the subcontractor for the purchase of such property. |
"Selling price" means the consideration for a sale , |
including, on and after January 1, 2025, a lease, valued in |
money whether received in money or otherwise, including cash, |
credits and service, and shall be determined without any |
deduction on account of the serviceman's cost of the property |
sold, the cost of materials used, labor or service cost or any |
other expense whatsoever, but does not include interest or |
finance charges which appear as separate items on the bill of |
sale or sales contract nor charges that are added to prices by |
sellers on account of the seller's duty to collect, from the |
purchaser, the tax that is imposed by this Act. |
"Department" means the Department of Revenue. |
"Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, |
association, joint stock company, joint venture, public or |
private corporation, limited liability company, and any |

taxable under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or under |

purpose of resale made in compliance with Section 2c of |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. |

purposes or any not-for-profit corporation, society, |
association, foundation, institution or organization which |
has no compensated officers or employees and which is |
organized and operated primarily for the recreation of |

motor vehicle is used in a manner that would qualify for |
the rolling stock exemption otherwise provided for in this |
Act. For purposes of this paragraph, "used for commercial |
purposes" means the transportation of persons or property |
in furtherance of any commercial or industrial enterprise |

wholesale or retail sale or lease, whether such sale or |
lease is made directly by the manufacturer or by some |
other person, whether the materials used in the process |
are owned by the manufacturer or some other person, or |
whether such sale or lease is made apart from or as an |
incident to the seller's engaging in a service occupation |
and the applicable tax is a Service Use Tax or Service |
Occupation Tax, rather than Use Tax or Retailers' |
Occupation Tax. The exemption provided by this paragraph |

paragraph (5) is exempt from the provisions of Section |
3-75. |

repaired, reconditioned or remodeled the property to a |
destination outside Illinois, for use outside Illinois. |
(5b) a sale or transfer of tangible personal property |
which is produced by the seller thereof on special order |
in such a way as to have made the applicable tax the |
Service Occupation Tax or the Service Use Tax, rather than |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax or the Use Tax, for an |
interstate carrier by rail which receives the physical |
possession of such property in Illinois, and which |
transports such property, or shares with another common |
carrier in the transportation of such property, out of |
Illinois on a standard uniform bill of lading showing the |

price of tangible personal property transferred as an |
incident to the sales of service is less than 35%, or 75% |

However, if a primary serviceman who has made the election |
described in this paragraph subcontracts service work to a |
secondary serviceman who has also made the election |
described in this paragraph, the primary serviceman does |
not incur a Use Tax liability if the secondary serviceman |
(i) has paid or will pay Use Tax on his or her cost price |
of any tangible personal property transferred to the |
primary serviceman and (ii) certifies that fact in writing |
to the primary serviceman. |

(35 ILCS 110/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.39) |
Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect |
the tax herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount |
of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time when he |
is required to file his return for the period during which such |
tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, |
1990 and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar |
|
year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the |
serviceman for expenses incurred in collecting the tax, |
keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting the |
tax and supplying data to the Department on request. When |
determining the discount allowed under this Section, |
servicemen shall include the amount of tax that would have |
been due at the 1% rate but for the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly. The discount |
under this Section is not allowed for the 1.25% portion of |
taxes paid on aviation fuel that is subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. The |
discount allowed under this Section is allowed only for |
returns that are filed in the manner required by this Act. The |
Department may disallow the discount for servicemen whose |
certificate of registration is revoked at the time the return |
is filed, but only if the Department's decision to revoke the |
certificate of registration has become final. A serviceman |
need not remit that part of any tax collected by him to the |
extent that he is required to pay and does pay the tax imposed |
by the Service Occupation Tax Act with respect to his sale of |
service involving the incidental transfer by him of the same |
property. |
Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or |
before the twentieth day of each calendar month, such |
serviceman shall file a return for the preceding calendar |
month in accordance with reasonable Rules and Regulations to |
|
be promulgated by the Department. Such return shall be filed |
on a form prescribed by the Department and shall contain such |
information as the Department may reasonably require. The |
return shall include the gross receipts which were received |
during the preceding calendar month or quarter on the |
following items upon which tax would have been due but for the |
0% rate imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly: (i) food for human consumption that is to be |
consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption); and (ii) food prepared for immediate |
consumption and transferred incident to a sale of service |
subject to this Act or the Service Occupation Tax Act by an |
entity licensed under the Hospital Licensing Act, the Nursing |
Home Care Act, the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, the |
ID/DD Community Care Act, the MC/DD Act, the Specialized |
Mental Health Rehabilitation Act of 2013, or the Child Care |
Act of 1969, or an entity that holds a permit issued pursuant |
to the Life Care Facilities Act. The return shall also include |
the amount of tax that would have been due on the items listed |
in the previous sentence but for the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly. |
In the case of leases, except as otherwise provided in |
this Act, the lessor, in collecting the tax, may collect for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of |
|
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
On and after January 1, 2018, with respect to servicemen |
whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, all |
returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. Servicemen who demonstrate that they do |
not have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in |
filing electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before |
the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in business as a serviceman in this |
State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month, including |
receipts from charge and time sales, but less all |
deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
|
5. The amount of tax due; |
5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Each serviceman required or authorized to collect the tax |
imposed by this Act on aviation fuel transferred as an |
incident of a sale of service in this State during the |
preceding calendar month shall, instead of reporting and |
paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise required by this |
Section, report and pay such tax on a separate aviation fuel |
tax return. The requirements related to the return shall be as |
otherwise provided in this Section. Notwithstanding any other |
provisions of this Act to the contrary, servicemen collecting |
tax on aviation fuel shall file all aviation fuel tax returns |
and shall make all aviation fuel tax payments by electronic |
means in the manner and form required by the Department. For |
purposes of this Section, "aviation fuel" means jet fuel and |
aviation gasoline. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, servicemen subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
|
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" means the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
|
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability |
to the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for April, |
May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year; |
with the return for July, August and September of a given year |
being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for |
October, November and December of a given year being due by |
January 20 of the following year. |
|
If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly |
or quarterly return and if the serviceman's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the |
case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of |
business which makes him responsible for filing returns under |
this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this |
Act with the Department not more than 1 month after |
discontinuing such business. |
Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the |
selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser |
thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds |
the selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman |
shall also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from |
the purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which |
he refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may |
deduct the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the |
purchaser from any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation |
Tax, retailers' occupation tax or use tax which such |
|
serviceman may be required to pay or remit to the Department, |
as shown by such return, provided that the amount of the tax to |
be deducted shall previously have been remitted to the |
Department by such serviceman. If the serviceman shall not |
previously have remitted the amount of such tax to the |
Department, he shall be entitled to no deduction hereunder |
upon refunding such tax to the purchaser. |
Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also |
include the total tax upon the selling price of tangible |
personal property purchased for use by him as an incident to a |
sale of service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount of |
such tax to the Department when filing such return. |
If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the |
Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint |
return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file |
returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax |
Act, to furnish all the return information required by both |
Acts on the one form. |
Where the serviceman has more than one business registered |
with the Department under separate registration hereunder, |
such serviceman shall not file each return that is due as a |
single return covering all such registered businesses, but |
shall file separate returns for each such registered business. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Tax Reform Fund, a special fund in |
the State Treasury, the net revenue realized for the preceding |
|
month from the 1% tax imposed under this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 20% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate on transfers of tangible personal property, other |
than (i) tangible personal property which is purchased outside |
Illinois at retail from a retailer and which is titled or |
registered by an agency of this State's government and (ii) |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This |
exception for aviation fuel only applies for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |

or all of the services required in his sale of service, it |
shall be presumed that the cost price to the serviceman of the |

Act. For purposes of this paragraph, "used for commercial |
purposes" means the transportation of persons or property in |
furtherance of any commercial or industrial enterprise whether |
for-hire or not. |

property in Illinois, and which transports such property, or |

|
directly by the manufacturer or by some other person, whether |
the materials used in the process are owned by the |
manufacturer or some other person, or whether such sale or |
lease is made apart from or as an incident to the seller's |
engaging in a service occupation and the applicable tax is a |
Service Occupation Tax or Service Use Tax, rather than |
Retailers' Occupation Tax or Use Tax. The exemption provided |

An Act in relation to a tax upon persons engaged in the |

form as tangible personal property to the extent not first |
subjected to a use for which it was purchased, for a valuable |
consideration: Provided that the property purchased is deemed |
to be purchased for the purpose of resale, despite first being |
used, to the extent to which it is resold as an ingredient of |
an intentionally produced product or byproduct of |
|
manufacturing. For this purpose, slag produced as an incident |
to manufacturing pig iron or steel and sold is considered to be |
an intentionally produced byproduct of manufacturing. |
Transactions whereby the possession of the property is |
transferred but the seller retains the title as security for |
payment of the selling price shall be deemed to be sales. |
"Sale at retail" shall be construed to include any |
transfer of the ownership of , the or title to , the possession |
or control of, the right to possess or control, or a license to |
use tangible personal property to a purchaser, for use or |
consumption by any other person to whom such purchaser may |
transfer the tangible personal property without a valuable |
consideration, and to include any transfer, whether made for |

order is received in Illinois by a florist and the sale is for |

cafeteria, or drive-in is a sale for resale when it is |
transferred to customers in the ordinary course of business as |
part of the sale of food or beverages and is used to deliver, |
package, or consume food or beverages, regardless of where |
consumption of the food or beverages occurs. Examples of those |
items include, but are not limited to nonreusable, paper and |

extent of sales by such person of tangible personal property |
which is not sold or offered for sale by persons organized for |
profit. The selling of school books and school supplies by |
schools at retail to students is not "primarily for the |
purposes of" the school which does such selling. The |
provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to nor subject to |
taxation occasional dinners, socials or similar activities of |
a person organized and operated exclusively for charitable, |
religious or educational purposes, whether or not such |
activities are open to the public. |

including the value of or credit given for traded-in tangible |
|
personal property where the item that is traded-in is of like |
kind and character as that which is being sold; beginning |
January 1, 2020 and until January 1, 2022, "selling price" |
includes the portion of the value of or credit given for |
traded-in motor vehicles of the First Division as defined in |

account of the cost of the property sold, the cost of materials |
used, labor or service cost or any other expense whatsoever, |
but does not include charges that are added to prices by |
sellers on account of the seller's tax liability under this |
Act, or on account of the seller's duty to collect, from the |
purchaser, the tax that is imposed by the Use Tax Act, or, |
except as otherwise provided with respect to any cigarette tax |
imposed by a home rule unit, on account of the seller's tax |
liability under any local occupation tax administered by the |
Department, or, except as otherwise provided with respect to |
any cigarette tax imposed by a home rule unit on account of the |
seller's duty to collect, from the purchasers, the tax that is |
imposed under any local use tax administered by the |
Department. Effective December 1, 1985, "selling price" shall |
include charges that are added to prices by sellers on account |
of the seller's tax liability under the Cigarette Tax Act, on |
account of the sellers' duty to collect, from the purchaser, |
the tax imposed under the Cigarette Use Tax Act, and on account |
|
of the seller's duty to collect, from the purchaser, any |
cigarette tax imposed by a home rule unit. |
The provisions of this paragraph, which provides only for |
an alternative meaning of "selling price" with respect to the |
sale of certain motor vehicles incident to the contemporaneous |
lease of those motor vehicles, continue in effect and are not |
changed by the tax on leases implemented by this amendatory |
Act of the 103rd General Assembly. Notwithstanding any law to |
the contrary, for any motor vehicle, as defined in Section |
1-146 of the Vehicle Code, that is sold on or after January 1, |
2015 for the purpose of leasing the vehicle for a defined |
period that is longer than one year and (1) is a motor vehicle |
of the second division that: (A) is a self-contained motor |
vehicle designed or permanently converted to provide living |
quarters for recreational, camping, or travel use, with direct |
walk through access to the living quarters from the driver's |
seat; (B) is of the van configuration designed for the |
transportation of not less than 7 nor more than 16 passengers; |
or (C) has a gross vehicle weight rating of 8,000 pounds or |
less or (2) is a motor vehicle of the first division, "selling |
price" or "amount of sale" means the consideration received by |
the lessor pursuant to the lease contract, including amounts |
due at lease signing and all monthly or other regular payments |
charged over the term of the lease. Also included in the |
selling price is any amount received by the lessor from the |
lessee for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the |
|
time the lease is executed, including, but not limited to, |
excess mileage charges and charges for excess wear and tear. |
For sales that occur in Illinois, with respect to any amount |
received by the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle |
that is not calculated at the time the lease is executed, the |
lessor who purchased the motor vehicle does not incur the tax |
imposed by the Use Tax Act on those amounts, and the retailer |
who makes the retail sale of the motor vehicle to the lessor is |
not required to collect the tax imposed by the Use Tax Act or |
to pay the tax imposed by this Act on those amounts. However, |
the lessor who purchased the motor vehicle assumes the |
liability for reporting and paying the tax on those amounts |
directly to the Department in the same form (Illinois |
Retailers' Occupation Tax, and local retailers' occupation |
taxes, if applicable) in which the retailer would have |
reported and paid such tax if the retailer had accounted for |
the tax to the Department. For amounts received by the lessor |
from the lessee that are not calculated at the time the lease |
is executed, the lessor must file the return and pay the tax to |
the Department by the due date otherwise required by this Act |
for returns other than transaction returns. If the retailer is |
entitled under this Act to a discount for collecting and |
remitting the tax imposed under this Act to the Department |
with respect to the sale of the motor vehicle to the lessor, |
then the right to the discount provided in this Act shall be |
transferred to the lessor with respect to the tax paid by the |
|
lessor for any amount received by the lessor from the lessee |
for the leased vehicle that is not calculated at the time the |
lease is executed; provided that the discount is only allowed |
if the return is timely filed and for amounts timely paid. The |
"selling price" of a motor vehicle that is sold on or after |
January 1, 2015 for the purpose of leasing for a defined period |
of longer than one year shall not be reduced by the value of or |
credit given for traded-in tangible personal property owned by |
the lessor, nor shall it be reduced by the value of or credit |
given for traded-in tangible personal property owned by the |
lessee, regardless of whether the trade-in value thereof is |
assigned by the lessee to the lessor. In the case of a motor |
vehicle that is sold for the purpose of leasing for a defined |
period of longer than one year, the sale occurs at the time of |
the delivery of the vehicle, regardless of the due date of any |
lease payments. A lessor who incurs a Retailers' Occupation |
Tax liability on the sale of a motor vehicle coming off lease |
may not take a credit against that liability for the Use Tax |
the lessor paid upon the purchase of the motor vehicle (or for |
any tax the lessor paid with respect to any amount received by |
the lessor from the lessee for the leased vehicle that was not |
calculated at the time the lease was executed) if the selling |
price of the motor vehicle at the time of purchase was |
calculated using the definition of "selling price" as defined |
in this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of this |
Act to the contrary, lessors shall file all returns and make |
|
all payments required under this paragraph to the Department |
by electronic means in the manner and form as required by the |
Department. This paragraph does not apply to leases of motor |
vehicles for which, at the time the lease is entered into, the |
term of the lease is not a defined period, including leases |
with a defined initial period with the option to continue the |
lease on a month-to-month or other basis beyond the initial |
defined period. |
The phrase "like kind and character" shall be liberally |
construed (including but not limited to any form of motor |
vehicle for any form of motor vehicle, or any kind of farm or |
agricultural implement for any other kind of farm or |
agricultural implement), while not including a kind of item |
which, if sold at retail by that retailer, would be exempt from |
retailers' occupation tax and use tax as an isolated or |
occasional sale. |
"Gross receipts" from the sales of tangible personal |
property at retail means the total selling price or the amount |
of such sales, as hereinbefore defined. In the case of charge |
and time sales, the amount thereof shall be included only as |
and when payments are received by the seller. In the case of |
leases, except as otherwise provided in this Act, the amount |
thereof shall be included only as and when gross receipts are |
received by the lessor. Receipts or other consideration |
derived by a seller from the sale, transfer or assignment of |
accounts receivable to a wholly owned subsidiary will not be |
|
deemed payments prior to the time the purchaser makes payment |
on such accounts. |
"Department" means the Department of Revenue. |
"Person" means any natural individual, firm, partnership, |
association, joint stock company, joint adventure, public or |
private corporation, limited liability company, or a receiver, |
executor, trustee, guardian or other representative appointed |
by order of any court. |
The isolated or occasional sale of tangible personal |
property at retail by a person who does not hold himself out as |
being engaged (or who does not habitually engage) in selling |
such tangible personal property at retail, or a sale through a |
bulk vending machine, does not constitute engaging in a |
business of selling such tangible personal property at retail |
within the meaning of this Act; provided that any person who is |
engaged in a business which is not subject to the tax imposed |
by this Act because of involving the sale of or a contract to |
sell real estate or a construction contract to improve real |
estate or a construction contract to engineer, install, and |
maintain an integrated system of products, but who, in the |
course of conducting such business, transfers tangible |
personal property to users or consumers in the finished form |
in which it was purchased, and which does not become real |
estate or was not engineered and installed, under any |
provision of a construction contract or real estate sale or |
real estate sales agreement entered into with some other |
|
person arising out of or because of such nontaxable business, |
is engaged in the business of selling tangible personal |
property at retail to the extent of the value of the tangible |
personal property so transferred. If, in such a transaction, a |
separate charge is made for the tangible personal property so |
transferred, the value of such property, for the purpose of |
this Act, shall be the amount so separately charged, but not |
less than the cost of such property to the transferor; if no |
separate charge is made, the value of such property, for the |
purposes of this Act, is the cost to the transferor of such |
tangible personal property. Construction contracts for the |
improvement of real estate consisting of engineering, |
installation, and maintenance of voice, data, video, security, |
and all telecommunication systems do not constitute engaging |
in a business of selling tangible personal property at retail |
within the meaning of this Act if they are sold at one |
specified contract price. |
A person who holds himself or herself out as being engaged |
(or who habitually engages) in selling tangible personal |
property at retail is a person engaged in the business of |
selling tangible personal property at retail hereunder with |
respect to such sales (and not primarily in a service |
occupation) notwithstanding the fact that such person designs |
and produces such tangible personal property on special order |
for the purchaser and in such a way as to render the property |
of value only to such purchaser, if such tangible personal |
|
property so produced on special order serves substantially the |
same function as stock or standard items of tangible personal |
property that are sold at retail. |
Persons who engage in the business of transferring |
tangible personal property upon the redemption of trading |
stamps are engaged in the business of selling such property at |
retail and shall be liable for and shall pay the tax imposed by |
this Act on the basis of the retail value of the property |
transferred upon redemption of such stamps. |
"Bulk vending machine" means a vending machine, containing |
unsorted confections, nuts, toys, or other items designed |
primarily to be used or played with by children which, when a |
coin or coins of a denomination not larger than $0.50 are |
inserted, are dispensed in equal portions, at random and |
without selection by the customer. |
"Remote retailer" means a retailer that does not maintain |
within this State, directly or by a subsidiary, an office, |
distribution house, sales house, warehouse or other place of |
business, or any agent or other representative operating |
within this State under the authority of the retailer or its |
subsidiary, irrespective of whether such place of business or |
agent is located here permanently or temporarily or whether |
such retailer or subsidiary is licensed to do business in this |
State. |
"Marketplace" means a physical or electronic place, forum, |
platform, application, or other method by which a marketplace |
|
seller sells or offers to sell items. |
"Marketplace facilitator" means a person who, pursuant to |
an agreement with an unrelated third-party marketplace seller, |
directly or indirectly through one or more affiliates |
facilitates a retail sale by an unrelated third party |
marketplace seller by: |
(1) listing or advertising for sale by the marketplace |
seller in a marketplace, tangible personal property that |
is subject to tax under this Act; and |
(2) either directly or indirectly, through agreements |
or arrangements with third parties, collecting payment |
from the customer and transmitting that payment to the |
marketplace seller regardless of whether the marketplace |
facilitator receives compensation or other consideration |
in exchange for its services. |
A person who provides advertising services, including |
listing products for sale, is not considered a marketplace |
facilitator, so long as the advertising service platform or |
forum does not engage, directly or indirectly through one or |
more affiliated persons, in the activities described in |
paragraph (2) of this definition of "marketplace facilitator". |
"Marketplace facilitator" does not include any person |
licensed under the Auction License Act. This exemption does |
not apply to any person who is an Internet auction listing |
service, as defined by the Auction License Act. |
"Marketplace seller" means a person that makes sales |
|
through a marketplace operated by an unrelated third party |
marketplace facilitator. |

(35 ILCS 120/1.05 new) |
Sec. 1.05. Legislative intent; leases. It is the intent of |
the General Assembly in enacting this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly to apply the tax imposed under this |
Act, except as otherwise provided in this Act, to persons |
engaged in the business of leasing at retail tangible personal |
property, other than motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and |
semitrailers, as defined in Section 1-187 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code, that are required to be registered with an |
agency of this State, leased at retail from a retailer, for |
leases in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after January |
1, 2025. |
(35 ILCS 120/2) (from Ch. 120, par. 441) |
Sec. 2. Tax imposed. |
(a) A tax is imposed upon persons engaged in the business |
of selling at retail , which, on and after January 1, 2025, |
includes leasing, tangible personal property, including |
computer software, and including photographs, negatives, and |
positives that are the product of photoprocessing, but not |
|
including products of photoprocessing produced for use in |
motion pictures for public commercial exhibition. Beginning |
January 1, 2001, prepaid telephone calling arrangements shall |
be considered tangible personal property subject to the tax |
imposed under this Act regardless of the form in which those |
arrangements may be embodied, transmitted, or fixed by any |
method now known or hereafter developed. |
The imposition of the tax under this Act on persons |
engaged in the business of leasing tangible personal property |
applies to leases in effect, entered into, or renewed on or |
after January 1, 2025. In the case of leases, except as |
otherwise provided in this Act, the lessor must remit, for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of |
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
The inclusion of leases in the tax imposed under this Act |
by this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly does not, |
however, extend to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and |
semitrailers, as defined in Section 1-187 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code, that are required to be registered with an |
agency of this State. The taxation of these items shall |
continue in effect as prior to the effective date of the |
changes made to this Section by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly (i.e., dealers owe retailers' |
occupation tax, lessors owe use tax, and lessees are not |
subject to retailers' occupation or use tax). |
|
Sales of (1) electricity delivered to customers by wire; |
(2) natural or artificial gas that is delivered to customers |
through pipes, pipelines, or mains; and (3) water that is |
delivered to customers through pipes, pipelines, or mains are |
not subject to tax under this Act. The provisions of this |
amendatory Act of the 98th General Assembly are declaratory of |
existing law as to the meaning and scope of this Act. |
(b) Beginning on January 1, 2021, a remote retailer is |
engaged in the occupation of selling at retail in Illinois for |
purposes of this Act, if: |
(1) the cumulative gross receipts from sales of |
tangible personal property to purchasers in Illinois are |
$100,000 or more; or |
(2) the retailer enters into 200 or more separate |
transactions for the sale of tangible personal property to |
purchasers in Illinois. |
Remote retailers that meet or exceed the threshold in |
either paragraph (1) or (2) above shall be liable for all |
applicable State retailers' and locally imposed retailers' |
occupation taxes administered by the Department on all retail |
sales to Illinois purchasers. |
The remote retailer shall determine on a quarterly basis, |
ending on the last day of March, June, September, and |
December, whether he or she meets the criteria of either |
paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection for the preceding |
12-month period. If the retailer meets the criteria of either |
|
paragraph (1) or (2) for a 12-month period, he or she is |
considered a retailer maintaining a place of business in this |
State and is required to collect and remit the tax imposed |
under this Act and all retailers' occupation tax imposed by |
local taxing jurisdictions in Illinois, provided such local |
taxes are administered by the Department, and to file all |
applicable returns for one year. At the end of that one-year |
period, the retailer shall determine whether the retailer met |
the criteria of either paragraph (1) or (2) for the preceding |
12-month period. If the retailer met the criteria in either |
paragraph (1) or (2) for the preceding 12-month period, he or |
she is considered a retailer maintaining a place of business |
in this State and is required to collect and remit all |
applicable State and local retailers' occupation taxes and |
file returns for the subsequent year. If, at the end of a |
one-year period, a retailer that was required to collect and |
remit the tax imposed under this Act determines that he or she |
did not meet the criteria in either paragraph (1) or (2) during |
the preceding 12-month period, then the retailer shall |
subsequently determine on a quarterly basis, ending on the |
last day of March, June, September, and December, whether he |
or she meets the criteria of either paragraph (1) or (2) for |
the preceding 12-month period. |
(b-5) For the purposes of this Section, neither the gross |
receipts from nor the number of separate transactions for |
sales of tangible personal property to purchasers in Illinois |
|
that a remote retailer makes through a marketplace facilitator |
shall be included for the purposes of determining whether he |
or she has met the thresholds of subsection (b) of this Section |
so long as the remote retailer has received certification from |
the marketplace facilitator that the marketplace facilitator |
is legally responsible for payment of tax on such sales. |
(b-10) A remote retailer required to collect taxes imposed |
under the Use Tax Act on retail sales made to Illinois |
purchasers shall be liable to the Department for such taxes, |
except when the remote retailer is relieved of the duty to |
remit such taxes by virtue of having paid to the Department |
taxes imposed by this Act in accordance with this Section upon |
his or her gross receipts from such sales. |
(c) Marketplace facilitators engaged in the business of |
selling at retail tangible personal property in Illinois. |
Beginning January 1, 2021, a marketplace facilitator is |
engaged in the occupation of selling at retail tangible |
personal property in Illinois for purposes of this Act if, |
during the previous 12-month period: |
(1) the cumulative gross receipts from sales of |
tangible personal property on its own behalf or on behalf |
of marketplace sellers to purchasers in Illinois equals |
$100,000 or more; or |
(2) the marketplace facilitator enters into 200 or |
more separate transactions on its own behalf or on behalf |
of marketplace sellers for the sale of tangible personal |
|
property to purchasers in Illinois, regardless of whether |
the marketplace facilitator or marketplace sellers for |
whom such sales are facilitated are registered as |
retailers in this State. |
A marketplace facilitator who meets either paragraph (1) |
or (2) of this subsection is required to remit the applicable |
State retailers' occupation taxes under this Act and local |
retailers' occupation taxes administered by the Department on |
all taxable sales of tangible personal property made by the |
marketplace facilitator or facilitated for marketplace sellers |
to customers in this State. A marketplace facilitator selling |
or facilitating the sale of tangible personal property to |
customers in this State is subject to all applicable |
procedures and requirements of this Act. |
The marketplace facilitator shall determine on a quarterly |
basis, ending on the last day of March, June, September, and |
December, whether he or she meets the criteria of either |
paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection for the preceding |
12-month period. If the marketplace facilitator meets the |
criteria of either paragraph (1) or (2) for a 12-month period, |
he or she is considered a retailer maintaining a place of |
business in this State and is required to remit the tax imposed |
under this Act and all retailers' occupation tax imposed by |
local taxing jurisdictions in Illinois, provided such local |
taxes are administered by the Department, and to file all |
applicable returns for one year. At the end of that one-year |
|
period, the marketplace facilitator shall determine whether it |
met the criteria of either paragraph (1) or (2) for the |
preceding 12-month period. If the marketplace facilitator met |
the criteria in either paragraph (1) or (2) for the preceding |
12-month period, it is considered a retailer maintaining a |
place of business in this State and is required to collect and |
remit all applicable State and local retailers' occupation |
taxes and file returns for the subsequent year. If at the end |
of a one-year period a marketplace facilitator that was |
required to collect and remit the tax imposed under this Act |
determines that he or she did not meet the criteria in either |
paragraph (1) or (2) during the preceding 12-month period, the |
marketplace facilitator shall subsequently determine on a |
quarterly basis, ending on the last day of March, June, |
September, and December, whether he or she meets the criteria |
of either paragraph (1) or (2) for the preceding 12-month |
period. |
A marketplace facilitator shall be entitled to any |
credits, deductions, or adjustments to the sales price |
otherwise provided to the marketplace seller, in addition to |
any such adjustments provided directly to the marketplace |
facilitator. This Section pertains to, but is not limited to, |
adjustments such as discounts, coupons, and rebates. In |
addition, a marketplace facilitator shall be entitled to the |
retailers' discount provided in Section 3 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act on all marketplace sales, and the |
|
marketplace seller shall not include sales made through a |
marketplace facilitator when computing any retailers' discount |
on remaining sales. Marketplace facilitators shall report and |
remit the applicable State and local retailers' occupation |
taxes on sales facilitated for marketplace sellers separately |
from any sales or use tax collected on taxable retail sales |
made directly by the marketplace facilitator or its |
affiliates. |
The marketplace facilitator is liable for the remittance |
of all applicable State retailers' occupation taxes under this |
Act and local retailers' occupation taxes administered by the |
Department on sales through the marketplace and is subject to |
audit on all such sales. The Department shall not audit |
marketplace sellers for their marketplace sales where a |
marketplace facilitator remitted the applicable State and |
local retailers' occupation taxes unless the marketplace |
facilitator seeks relief as a result of incorrect information |
provided to the marketplace facilitator by a marketplace |
seller as set forth in this Section. The marketplace |
facilitator shall not be held liable for tax on any sales made |
by a marketplace seller that take place outside of the |
marketplace and which are not a part of any agreement between a |
marketplace facilitator and a marketplace seller. In addition, |
marketplace facilitators shall not be held liable to State and |
local governments of Illinois for having charged and remitted |
an incorrect amount of State and local retailers' occupation |
|
tax if, at the time of the sale, the tax is computed based on |
erroneous data provided by the State in database files on tax |
rates, boundaries, or taxing jurisdictions or incorrect |
information provided to the marketplace facilitator by the |
marketplace seller. |
(d) A marketplace facilitator shall: |
(1) certify to each marketplace seller that the |
marketplace facilitator assumes the rights and duties of a |
retailer under this Act with respect to sales made by the |
marketplace seller through the marketplace; and |
(2) remit taxes imposed by this Act as required by |
this Act for sales made through the marketplace. |
(e) A marketplace seller shall retain books and records |
for all sales made through a marketplace in accordance with |
the requirements of this Act. |
(f) A marketplace facilitator is subject to audit on all |
marketplace sales for which it is considered to be the |
retailer, but shall not be liable for tax or subject to audit |
on sales made by marketplace sellers outside of the |
marketplace. |
(g) A marketplace facilitator required to collect taxes |
imposed under the Use Tax Act on marketplace sales made to |
Illinois purchasers shall be liable to the Department for such |
taxes, except when the marketplace facilitator is relieved of |
the duty to remit such taxes by virtue of having paid to the |
Department taxes imposed by this Act in accordance with this |
|
Section upon his or her gross receipts from such sales. |
(h) Nothing in this Section shall allow the Department to |
collect retailers' occupation taxes from both the marketplace |
facilitator and marketplace seller on the same transaction. |
(i) If, for any reason, the Department is prohibited from |
enforcing the marketplace facilitator's duty under this Act to |
remit taxes pursuant to this Section, the duty to remit such |
taxes remains with the marketplace seller. |
(j) Nothing in this Section affects the obligation of any |
consumer to remit use tax for any taxable transaction for |
which a certified service provider acting on behalf of a |
remote retailer or a marketplace facilitator does not collect |
and remit the appropriate tax. |
(k) Nothing in this Section shall allow the Department to |
collect the retailers' occupation tax from both the |
marketplace facilitator and the marketplace seller. |

Sec. 2-12. Location where retailer is deemed to be engaged |
in the business of selling. The purpose of this Section is to |
specify where a retailer is deemed to be engaged in the |
business of selling tangible personal property for the |
purposes of this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act, |
and the Service Occupation Tax Act, and for the purpose of |
collecting any other local retailers' occupation tax |
administered by the Department. This Section applies only with |
respect to the particular selling activities described in the |
following paragraphs. The provisions of this Section are not |
intended to, and shall not be interpreted to, affect where a |
retailer is deemed to be engaged in the business of selling |
with respect to any activity that is not specifically |
|
described in the following paragraphs. |
(1) If a purchaser who is present at the retailer's |
place of business, having no prior commitment to the |
retailer, agrees to purchase and makes payment for |
tangible personal property at the retailer's place of |
business, then the transaction shall be deemed an |
over-the-counter sale occurring at the retailer's same |
place of business where the purchaser was present and made |
payment for that tangible personal property if the |
retailer regularly stocks the purchased tangible personal |
property or similar tangible personal property in the |
quantity, or similar quantity, for sale at the retailer's |
same place of business and then either (i) the purchaser |
takes possession of the tangible personal property at the |
same place of business or (ii) the retailer delivers or |
arranges for the tangible personal property to be |
delivered to the purchaser. |
(2) If a purchaser, having no prior commitment to the |
retailer, agrees to purchase tangible personal property |
and makes payment over the phone, in writing, or via the |
Internet and takes possession of the tangible personal |
property at the retailer's place of business, then the |
sale shall be deemed to have occurred at the retailer's |
place of business where the purchaser takes possession of |
the property if the retailer regularly stocks the item or |
similar items in the quantity, or similar quantities, |
|
purchased by the purchaser. |
(3) A retailer is deemed to be engaged in the business |
of selling food, beverages, or other tangible personal |
property through a vending machine at the location where |
the vending machine is located at the time the sale is made |
if (i) the vending machine is a device operated by coin, |
currency, credit card, token, coupon or similar device; |
(2) the food, beverage or other tangible personal property |
is contained within the vending machine and dispensed from |
the vending machine; and (3) the purchaser takes |
possession of the purchased food, beverage or other |
tangible personal property immediately. |
(4) Minerals. A producer of coal or other mineral |
mined in Illinois is deemed to be engaged in the business |
of selling at the place where the coal or other mineral |
mined in Illinois is extracted from the earth. With |
respect to minerals (i) the term "extracted from the |
earth" means the location at which the coal or other |
mineral is extracted from the mouth of the mine, and (ii) a |
"mineral" includes not only coal, but also oil, sand, |
stone taken from a quarry, gravel and any other thing |
commonly regarded as a mineral and extracted from the |
earth. This paragraph does not apply to coal or another |
mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the seller to |
the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the sale |
is exempt under the United States Constitution as a sale |
|
in interstate or foreign commerce. |
(5) A retailer selling tangible personal property to a |
nominal lessee or bailee pursuant to a lease with a dollar |
or other nominal option to purchase is engaged in the |
business of selling at the location where the property is |
first delivered to the lessee or bailee for its intended |
use. |
(5.5) Lease transactions. The lease of tangible |
personal property that is subject to the tax on leases |
under this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly is |
sourced as follows: |
(i) For a lease that requires recurring periodic |
payments and for which the property is delivered to |
the lessee by the lessor, each periodic payment is |
sourced to the primary property location for each |
period covered by the payment. The primary property |
location shall be as indicated by an address for the |
property provided by the lessee that is available to |
the lessor from its records maintained in the ordinary |
course of business, when use of this address does not |
constitute bad faith. The property location is not |
altered by intermittent use at different locations, |
such as use of business property that accompanies |
employees on business trips and service calls. |
(ii) For all other leases, including a lease that |
does not require recurring periodic payments and any |
|
lease for which the lessee takes possession of the |
property at the lessor's place of business, the |
payment is sourced as otherwise provided under this |
Act for sales at retail other than leases. |
(6) Beginning on January 1, 2021, a remote retailer |
making retail sales of tangible personal property that |
meet or exceed the thresholds established in paragraph (1) |
or (2) of subsection (b) of Section 2 of this Act is |
engaged in the business of selling at the Illinois |
location to which the tangible personal property is |
shipped or delivered or at which possession is taken by |
the purchaser. |
(7) Beginning January 1, 2021, a marketplace |
facilitator facilitating sales of tangible personal |
property that meet or exceed one of the thresholds |
established in paragraph (1) or (2) of subsection (c) of |
Section 2 of this Act is deemed to be engaged in the |
business of selling at the Illinois location to which the |
tangible personal property is shipped or delivered or at |
which possession is taken by the purchaser when the sale |
is made by a marketplace seller on the marketplace |
facilitator's marketplace. |

(35 ILCS 120/2a) (from Ch. 120, par. 441a) |
Sec. 2a. Registration of retailers. It is unlawful for any |
|
person to engage in the business of selling , which, on and |
after January 1, 2025, includes leasing, tangible personal |
property at retail in this State without a certificate of |
registration from the Department. Application for a |
certificate of registration shall be made to the Department |
upon forms furnished by it. Each such application shall be |
signed and verified and shall state: (1) the name and social |
security number of the applicant; (2) the address of his |
principal place of business; (3) the address of the principal |
place of business from which he engages in the business of |
selling tangible personal property at retail in this State and |
the addresses of all other places of business, if any |
(enumerating such addresses, if any, in a separate list |
attached to and made a part of the application), from which he |
engages in the business of selling tangible personal property |
at retail in this State; (4) the name and address of the person |
or persons who will be responsible for filing returns and |
payment of taxes due under this Act; (5) in the case of a |
publicly traded corporation, the name and title of the Chief |
Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, and any other |
officer or employee with responsibility for preparing tax |
returns under this Act, and, in the case of all other |
corporations, the name, title, and social security number of |
each corporate officer; (6) in the case of a limited liability |
company, the name, social security number, and FEIN number of |
each manager and member; and (7) such other information as the |
|
Department may reasonably require. The application shall |
contain an acceptance of responsibility signed by the person |
or persons who will be responsible for filing returns and |
payment of the taxes due under this Act. If the applicant will |
sell tangible personal property at retail through vending |
machines, his application to register shall indicate the |
number of vending machines to be so operated. If requested by |
the Department at any time, that person shall verify the total |
number of vending machines he or she uses in his or her |
business of selling tangible personal property at retail. |
The Department shall provide by rule for an expedited |
business registration process for remote retailers required to |
register and file under subsection (b) of Section 2 who use a |
certified service provider to file their returns under this |
Act. Such expedited registration process shall allow the |
Department to register a taxpayer based upon the same |
registration information required by the Streamlined Sales Tax |
Governing Board for states participating in the Streamlined |
Sales Tax Project. |
The Department may deny a certificate of registration to |
any applicant if a person who is named as the owner, a partner, |
a manager or member of a limited liability company, or a |
corporate officer of the applicant on the application for the |
certificate of registration is or has been named as the owner, |
a partner, a manager or member of a limited liability company, |
or a corporate officer on the application for the certificate |
|
of registration of another retailer that (i) is in default for |
moneys due under this Act or any other tax or fee Act |
administered by the Department or (ii) fails to file any |
return, on or before the due date prescribed for filing that |
return (including any extensions of time granted by the |
Department), that the retailer is required to file under this |
Act or any other tax or fee Act administered by the Department. |
For purposes of this paragraph only, in determining whether a |
person is in default for moneys due, the Department shall |
include only amounts established as a final liability within |
the 23 years prior to the date of the Department's notice of |
denial of a certificate of registration. |
The Department may require an applicant for a certificate |
of registration hereunder to, at the time of filing such |
application, furnish a bond from a surety company authorized |
to do business in the State of Illinois, or an irrevocable bank |
letter of credit or a bond signed by 2 personal sureties who |
have filed, with the Department, sworn statements disclosing |
net assets equal to at least 3 times the amount of the bond to |
be required of such applicant, or a bond secured by an |
assignment of a bank account or certificate of deposit, stocks |
or bonds, conditioned upon the applicant paying to the State |
of Illinois all moneys becoming due under this Act and under |
any other State tax law or municipal or county tax ordinance or |
resolution under which the certificate of registration that is |
issued to the applicant under this Act will permit the |
|
applicant to engage in business without registering separately |
under such other law, ordinance or resolution. In making a |
determination as to whether to require a bond or other |
security, the Department shall take into consideration whether |
the owner, any partner, any manager or member of a limited |
liability company, or a corporate officer of the applicant is |
or has been the owner, a partner, a manager or member of a |
limited liability company, or a corporate officer of another |
retailer that is in default for moneys due under this Act or |
any other tax or fee Act administered by the Department; and |
whether the owner, any partner, any manager or member of a |
limited liability company, or a corporate officer of the |
applicant is or has been the owner, a partner, a manager or |
member of a limited liability company, or a corporate officer |
of another retailer whose certificate of registration has been |
revoked within the previous 5 years under this Act or any other |
tax or fee Act administered by the Department. If a bond or |
other security is required, the Department shall fix the |
amount of the bond or other security, taking into |
consideration the amount of money expected to become due from |
the applicant under this Act and under any other State tax law |
or municipal or county tax ordinance or resolution under which |
the certificate of registration that is issued to the |
applicant under this Act will permit the applicant to engage |
in business without registering separately under such other |
law, ordinance, or resolution. The amount of security required |
|
by the Department shall be such as, in its opinion, will |
protect the State of Illinois against failure to pay the |
amount which may become due from the applicant under this Act |
and under any other State tax law or municipal or county tax |
ordinance or resolution under which the certificate of |
registration that is issued to the applicant under this Act |
will permit the applicant to engage in business without |
registering separately under such other law, ordinance or |
resolution, but the amount of the security required by the |
Department shall not exceed three times the amount of the |
applicant's average monthly tax liability, or $50,000.00, |
whichever amount is lower. |
No certificate of registration under this Act shall be |
issued by the Department until the applicant provides the |
Department with satisfactory security, if required, as herein |
provided for. |
Upon receipt of the application for certificate of |
registration in proper form, and upon approval by the |
Department of the security furnished by the applicant, if |
required, the Department shall issue to such applicant a |
certificate of registration which shall permit the person to |
whom it is issued to engage in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in this State. The certificate of |
registration shall be conspicuously displayed at the place of |
business which the person so registered states in his |
application to be the principal place of business from which |
|
he engages in the business of selling tangible personal |
property at retail in this State. |
No certificate of registration issued prior to July 1, |
2017 to a taxpayer who files returns required by this Act on a |
monthly basis or renewed prior to July 1, 2017 by a taxpayer |
who files returns required by this Act on a monthly basis shall |
be valid after the expiration of 5 years from the date of its |
issuance or last renewal. No certificate of registration |
issued on or after July 1, 2017 to a taxpayer who files returns |
required by this Act on a monthly basis or renewed on or after |
July 1, 2017 by a taxpayer who files returns required by this |
Act on a monthly basis shall be valid after the expiration of |
one year from the date of its issuance or last renewal. The |
expiration date of a sub-certificate of registration shall be |
that of the certificate of registration to which the |
sub-certificate relates. Prior to July 1, 2017, a certificate |
of registration shall automatically be renewed, subject to |
revocation as provided by this Act, for an additional 5 years |
from the date of its expiration unless otherwise notified by |
the Department as provided by this paragraph. On and after |
July 1, 2017, a certificate of registration shall |
automatically be renewed, subject to revocation as provided by |
this Act, for an additional one year from the date of its |
expiration unless otherwise notified by the Department as |
provided by this paragraph. |
Where a taxpayer to whom a certificate of registration is |
|
issued under this Act is in default to the State of Illinois |
for delinquent returns or for moneys due under this Act or any |
other State tax law or municipal or county ordinance |
administered or enforced by the Department, the Department |
shall, not less than 60 days before the expiration date of such |
certificate of registration, give notice to the taxpayer to |
whom the certificate was issued of the account period of the |
delinquent returns, the amount of tax, penalty and interest |
due and owing from the taxpayer, and that the certificate of |
registration shall not be automatically renewed upon its |
expiration date unless the taxpayer, on or before the date of |
expiration, has filed and paid the delinquent returns or paid |
the defaulted amount in full. A taxpayer to whom such a notice |
is issued shall be deemed an applicant for renewal. The |
Department shall promulgate regulations establishing |
procedures for taxpayers who file returns on a monthly basis |
but desire and qualify to change to a quarterly or yearly |
filing basis and will no longer be subject to renewal under |
this Section, and for taxpayers who file returns on a yearly or |
quarterly basis but who desire or are required to change to a |
monthly filing basis and will be subject to renewal under this |
Section. |
The Department may in its discretion approve renewal by an |
applicant who is in default if, at the time of application for |
renewal, the applicant files all of the delinquent returns or |
pays to the Department such percentage of the defaulted amount |
|
as may be determined by the Department and agrees in writing to |
waive all limitations upon the Department for collection of |
the remaining defaulted amount to the Department over a period |
not to exceed 5 years from the date of renewal of the |
certificate; however, no renewal application submitted by an |
applicant who is in default shall be approved if the |
immediately preceding renewal by the applicant was conditioned |
upon the installment payment agreement described in this |
Section. The payment agreement herein provided for shall be in |
addition to and not in lieu of the security that may be |
required by this Section of a taxpayer who is no longer |
considered a prior continuous compliance taxpayer. The |
execution of the payment agreement as provided in this Act |
shall not toll the accrual of interest at the statutory rate. |
The Department may suspend a certificate of registration |
if the Department finds that the person to whom the |
certificate of registration has been issued knowingly sold |
contraband cigarettes. |
A certificate of registration issued under this Act more |
than 5 years before January 1, 1990 (the effective date of |
Public Act 86-383) shall expire and be subject to the renewal |
provisions of this Section on the next anniversary of the date |
of issuance of such certificate which occurs more than 6 |
months after January 1, 1990 (the effective date of Public Act |
86-383). A certificate of registration issued less than 5 |
years before January 1, 1990 (the effective date of Public Act |
|
86-383) shall expire and be subject to the renewal provisions |
of this Section on the 5th anniversary of the issuance of the |
certificate. |
If the person so registered states that he operates other |
places of business from which he engages in the business of |
selling tangible personal property at retail in this State, |
the Department shall furnish him with a sub-certificate of |
registration for each such place of business, and the |
applicant shall display the appropriate sub-certificate of |
registration at each such place of business. All |
sub-certificates of registration shall bear the same |
registration number as that appearing upon the certificate of |
registration to which such sub-certificates relate. |
If the applicant will sell tangible personal property at |
retail through vending machines, the Department shall furnish |
him with a sub-certificate of registration for each such |
vending machine, and the applicant shall display the |
appropriate sub-certificate of registration on each such |
vending machine by attaching the sub-certificate of |
registration to a conspicuous part of such vending machine. If |
a person who is registered to sell tangible personal property |
at retail through vending machines adds an additional vending |
machine or additional vending machines to the number of |
vending machines he or she uses in his or her business of |
selling tangible personal property at retail, he or she shall |
notify the Department, on a form prescribed by the Department, |
|
to request an additional sub-certificate or additional |
sub-certificates of registration, as applicable. With each |
such request, the applicant shall report the number of |
sub-certificates of registration he or she is requesting as |
well as the total number of vending machines from which he or |
she makes retail sales. |
Where the same person engages in 2 or more businesses of |
selling tangible personal property at retail in this State, |
which businesses are substantially different in character or |
engaged in under different trade names or engaged in under |
other substantially dissimilar circumstances (so that it is |
more practicable, from an accounting, auditing or bookkeeping |
standpoint, for such businesses to be separately registered), |
the Department may require or permit such person (subject to |
the same requirements concerning the furnishing of security as |
those that are provided for hereinbefore in this Section as to |
each application for a certificate of registration) to apply |
for and obtain a separate certificate of registration for each |
such business or for any of such businesses, under a single |
certificate of registration supplemented by related |
sub-certificates of registration. |
Any person who is registered under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act as of March 8, 1963, and who, during the |
3-year period immediately prior to March 8, 1963, or during a |
continuous 3-year period part of which passed immediately |
before and the remainder of which passes immediately after |
|
March 8, 1963, has been so registered continuously and who is |
determined by the Department not to have been either |
delinquent or deficient in the payment of tax liability during |
that period under this Act or under any other State tax law or |
municipal or county tax ordinance or resolution under which |
the certificate of registration that is issued to the |
registrant under this Act will permit the registrant to engage |
in business without registering separately under such other |
law, ordinance or resolution, shall be considered to be a |
Prior Continuous Compliance taxpayer. Also any taxpayer who |
has, as verified by the Department, faithfully and |
continuously complied with the condition of his bond or other |
security under the provisions of this Act for a period of 3 |
consecutive years shall be considered to be a Prior Continuous |
Compliance taxpayer. |
Every Prior Continuous Compliance taxpayer shall be exempt |
from all requirements under this Act concerning the furnishing |
of a bond or other security as a condition precedent to his |
being authorized to engage in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in this State. This exemption |
shall continue for each such taxpayer until such time as he may |
be determined by the Department to be delinquent in the filing |
of any returns, or is determined by the Department (either |
through the Department's issuance of a final assessment which |
has become final under the Act, or by the taxpayer's filing of |
a return which admits tax that is not paid to be due) to be |
|
delinquent or deficient in the paying of any tax under this Act |
or under any other State tax law or municipal or county tax |
ordinance or resolution under which the certificate of |
registration that is issued to the registrant under this Act |
will permit the registrant to engage in business without |
registering separately under such other law, ordinance or |
resolution, at which time that taxpayer shall become subject |
to all the financial responsibility requirements of this Act |
and, as a condition of being allowed to continue to engage in |
the business of selling tangible personal property at retail, |
may be required to post bond or other acceptable security with |
the Department covering liability which such taxpayer may |
thereafter incur. Any taxpayer who fails to pay an admitted or |
established liability under this Act may also be required to |
post bond or other acceptable security with this Department |
guaranteeing the payment of such admitted or established |
liability. |
No certificate of registration shall be issued to any |
person who is in default to the State of Illinois for moneys |
due under this Act or under any other State tax law or |
municipal or county tax ordinance or resolution under which |
the certificate of registration that is issued to the |
applicant under this Act will permit the applicant to engage |
in business without registering separately under such other |
law, ordinance or resolution. |
Any person aggrieved by any decision of the Department |
|
under this Section may, within 20 days after notice of such |
decision, protest and request a hearing, whereupon the |
Department shall give notice to such person of the time and |
place fixed for such hearing and shall hold a hearing in |
conformity with the provisions of this Act and then issue its |
final administrative decision in the matter to such person. In |
the absence of such a protest within 20 days, the Department's |
decision shall become final without any further determination |
being made or notice given. |
With respect to security other than bonds (upon which the |
Department may sue in the event of a forfeiture), if the |
taxpayer fails to pay, when due, any amount whose payment such |
security guarantees, the Department shall, after such |
liability is admitted by the taxpayer or established by the |
Department through the issuance of a final assessment that has |
become final under the law, convert the security which that |
taxpayer has furnished into money for the State, after first |
giving the taxpayer at least 10 days' written notice, by |
registered or certified mail, to pay the liability or forfeit |
such security to the Department. If the security consists of |
stocks or bonds or other securities which are listed on a |
public exchange, the Department shall sell such securities |
through such public exchange. If the security consists of an |
irrevocable bank letter of credit, the Department shall |
convert the security in the manner provided for in the Uniform |
Commercial Code. If the security consists of a bank |
|
certificate of deposit, the Department shall convert the |
security into money by demanding and collecting the amount of |
such bank certificate of deposit from the bank which issued |
such certificate. If the security consists of a type of stocks |
or other securities which are not listed on a public exchange, |
the Department shall sell such security to the highest and |
best bidder after giving at least 10 days' notice of the date, |
time and place of the intended sale by publication in the |
"State Official Newspaper". If the Department realizes more |
than the amount of such liability from the security, plus the |
expenses incurred by the Department in converting the security |
into money, the Department shall pay such excess to the |
taxpayer who furnished such security, and the balance shall be |
paid into the State Treasury. |
The Department shall discharge any surety and shall |
release and return any security deposited, assigned, pledged |
or otherwise provided to it by a taxpayer under this Section |
within 30 days after: |
(1) such taxpayer becomes a Prior Continuous |
Compliance taxpayer; or |
(2) such taxpayer has ceased to collect receipts on |
which he is required to remit tax to the Department, has |
filed a final tax return, and has paid to the Department an |
amount sufficient to discharge his remaining tax |
liability, as determined by the Department, under this Act |
and under every other State tax law or municipal or county |
|
tax ordinance or resolution under which the certificate of |
registration issued under this Act permits the registrant |
to engage in business without registering separately under |
such other law, ordinance or resolution. The Department |
shall make a final determination of the taxpayer's |
outstanding tax liability as expeditiously as possible |
after his final tax return has been filed; if the |
Department cannot make such final determination within 45 |
days after receiving the final tax return, within such |
period it shall so notify the taxpayer, stating its |
reasons therefor. |

(35 ILCS 120/2c) (from Ch. 120, par. 441c) |
Sec. 2c. Resales of tangible personal property. If the |
purchaser is not registered with the Department as a taxpayer, |
but claims to be a reseller of the tangible personal property |
in such a way that such resales are not taxable under this Act |
or under some other tax law which the Department may |
administer, such purchaser (except in the case of an |
out-of-State purchaser who will always resell and deliver the |
property to his customers outside Illinois) shall apply to the |
Department for a resale number. Such applicant shall state |
facts which will show the Department why such applicant is not |
liable for tax under this Act or under some other tax law which |
the Department may administer on any of his resales and shall |
|
furnish such additional information as the Department may |
reasonably require. |
Upon approval of the application, the Department shall |
assign a resale number to the applicant and shall certify such |
number to him. The Department may cancel any such number which |
is obtained through misrepresentation, or which is used to |
make a purchase tax-free when the purchase in fact is not a |
purchase for resale, or which no longer applies because of the |
purchaser's having discontinued the making of tax exempt |
resales of the property. |
The Department may restrict the use of the number to one |
year at a time or to some other definite period if the |
Department finds it impracticable or otherwise inadvisable to |
issue such numbers for indefinite periods. |
Except as provided hereinabove in this Section, a sale |
shall be made tax-free on the ground of being a sale for resale |
if the purchaser has an active registration number or resale |
number from the Department and furnishes that number to the |
seller in connection with certifying to the seller that any |
sale to such purchaser is nontaxable because of being a sale |
for resale. On and after January 1, 2025, a sale to a lessor of |
tangible personal property who is subject to the tax on leases |
implemented by this amendatory Act of the 103rd General |
Assembly, for the purpose of leasing that property, shall be |
made tax-free on the ground of being a sale for resale, |
provided the other provisions of this paragraph are met. |
|
Failure to present an active registration number or resale |
number and a certification to the seller that a sale is for |
resale creates a presumption that a sale is not for resale. |
This presumption may be rebutted by other evidence that all of |
the seller's sales are sale for resale, or that a particular |
sale is a sale for resale. |

(35 ILCS 120/3) (from Ch. 120, par. 442) |
Sec. 3. Except as provided in this Section, on or before |
the twentieth day of each calendar month, every person engaged |
in the business of selling , which, on and after January 1, |
2025, includes leasing, tangible personal property at retail |
in this State during the preceding calendar month shall file a |
return with the Department, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. His residence address and the address of his |
principal place of business and the address of the |
principal place of business (if that is a different |
address) from which he engages in the business of selling |
tangible personal property at retail in this State; |
3. Total amount of receipts received by him during the |
preceding calendar month or quarter, as the case may be, |
from sales of tangible personal property, and from |
services furnished, by him during such preceding calendar |
month or quarter; |
|
4. Total amount received by him during the preceding |
calendar month or quarter on charge and time sales of |
tangible personal property, and from services furnished, |
by him prior to the month or quarter for which the return |
is filed; |
5. Deductions allowed by law; |
6. Gross receipts which were received by him during |
the preceding calendar month or quarter and upon the basis |
of which the tax is imposed, including gross receipts on |
food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the |
premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, |
food consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, |
soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for immediate |
consumption) which were received during the preceding |
calendar month or quarter and upon which tax would have |
been due but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act |
102-700; |
7. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
8. The amount of tax due, including the amount of tax |
that would have been due on food for human consumption |
that is to be consumed off the premises where it is sold |
(other than alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or |
infused with adult use cannabis, soft drinks, and food |
that has been prepared for immediate consumption) but for |
the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700; |
|
9. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
10. Such other reasonable information as the |
Department may require. |
In the case of leases, except as otherwise provided in |
this Act, the lessor must remit for each tax return period only |
the tax applicable to that part of the selling price actually |
received during such tax return period. |
On and after January 1, 2018, except for returns required |
to be filed prior to January 1, 2023 for motor vehicles, |
watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required to be |
registered with an agency of this State, with respect to |
retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, |
all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. On and after January 1, 2023, with |
respect to retailers whose annual gross receipts average |
$20,000 or more, all returns required to be filed pursuant to |
this Act, including, but not limited to, returns for motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State, shall be filed |
electronically. Retailers who demonstrate that they do not |
have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in filing |
electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
|
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Each return shall be accompanied by the statement of |
prepaid tax issued pursuant to Section 2e for which credit is |
claimed. |
Prior to October 1, 2003 , and on and after September 1, |
2004 , a retailer may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit |
certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Use Tax as |
provided in Section 3-85 of the Use Tax Act if the purchaser |
provides the appropriate documentation as required by Section |
3-85 of the Use Tax Act. A Manufacturer's Purchase Credit |
certification, accepted by a retailer prior to October 1, 2003 |
and on and after September 1, 2004 as provided in Section 3-85 |
of the Use Tax Act, may be used by that retailer to satisfy |
Retailers' Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in |
the certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject |
to tax from a qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on any original or amended return filed under |
this Act after October 20, 2003 for reporting periods prior to |
September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on annual returns due on or after January 1, |
2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to September 1, |
2004. No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used after |
September 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to satisfy any tax |
liability imposed under this Act, including any audit |
liability. |
Beginning on July 1, 2023 and through December 31, 2032, a |
|
retailer may accept a Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase |
Credit certification from an air common carrier-purchaser in |
satisfaction of Use Tax on aviation fuel as provided in |
Section 3-87 of the Use Tax Act if the purchaser provides the |
appropriate documentation as required by Section 3-87 of the |
Use Tax Act. A Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase Credit |
certification accepted by a retailer in accordance with this |
paragraph may be used by that retailer to satisfy Retailers' |
Occupation Tax liability (but not in satisfaction of penalty |
or interest) in the amount claimed in the certification, not |
to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to tax from a sale of |
aviation fuel. In addition, for a sale of aviation fuel to |
qualify to earn the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase Credit, |
retailers must retain in their books and records a |
certification from the producer of the aviation fuel that the |
aviation fuel sold by the retailer and for which a sustainable |
aviation fuel purchase credit was earned meets the definition |
of sustainable aviation fuel under Section 3-87 of the Use Tax |
Act. The documentation must include detail sufficient for the |
Department to determine the number of gallons of sustainable |
aviation fuel sold. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
|
of the first 2 two months of each calendar quarter, on or |
before the twentieth day of the following calendar month, |
stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in this State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month from sales of |
tangible personal property by him during such preceding |
calendar month, including receipts from charge and time |
sales, but less all deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Every person engaged in the business of selling aviation |
fuel at retail in this State during the preceding calendar |
month shall, instead of reporting and paying tax as otherwise |
required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate |
aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the |
return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section. |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers selling aviation fuel shall file all |
aviation fuel tax returns and shall make all aviation fuel tax |
|
payments by electronic means in the manner and form required |
by the Department. For purposes of this Section, "aviation |
fuel" means jet fuel and aviation gasoline. |
Beginning on October 1, 2003, any person who is not a |
licensed distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer, |
as defined in the Liquor Control Act of 1934, but is engaged in |
the business of selling, at retail, alcoholic liquor shall |
file a statement with the Department of Revenue, in a format |
and at a time prescribed by the Department, showing the total |
amount paid for alcoholic liquor purchased during the |
preceding month and such other information as is reasonably |
required by the Department. The Department may adopt rules to |
require that this statement be filed in an electronic or |
telephonic format. Such rules may provide for exceptions from |
the filing requirements of this paragraph. For the purposes of |
this paragraph, the term "alcoholic liquor" shall have the |
meaning prescribed in the Liquor Control Act of 1934. |
Beginning on October 1, 2003, every distributor, importing |
distributor, and manufacturer of alcoholic liquor as defined |
in the Liquor Control Act of 1934, shall file a statement with |
the Department of Revenue, no later than the 10th day of the |
month for the preceding month during which transactions |
occurred, by electronic means, showing the total amount of |
gross receipts from the sale of alcoholic liquor sold or |
distributed during the preceding month to purchasers; |
identifying the purchaser to whom it was sold or distributed; |
|
the purchaser's tax registration number; and such other |
information reasonably required by the Department. A |
distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer of |
alcoholic liquor must personally deliver, mail, or provide by |
electronic means to each retailer listed on the monthly |
statement a report containing a cumulative total of that |
distributor's, importing distributor's, or manufacturer's |
total sales of alcoholic liquor to that retailer no later than |
the 10th day of the month for the preceding month during which |
the transaction occurred. The distributor, importing |
distributor, or manufacturer shall notify the retailer as to |
the method by which the distributor, importing distributor, or |
manufacturer will provide the sales information. If the |
retailer is unable to receive the sales information by |
electronic means, the distributor, importing distributor, or |
manufacturer shall furnish the sales information by personal |
delivery or by mail. For purposes of this paragraph, the term |
"electronic means" includes, but is not limited to, the use of |
a secure Internet website, e-mail, or facsimile. |
If a total amount of less than $1 is payable, refundable or |
creditable, such amount shall be disregarded if it is less |
than 50 cents and shall be increased to $1 if it is 50 cents or |
more. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
|
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
|
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
Any amount which is required to be shown or reported on any |
return or other document under this Act shall, if such amount |
is not a whole-dollar amount, be increased to the nearest |
whole-dollar amount in any case where the fractional part of a |
dollar is 50 cents or more, and decreased to the nearest |
whole-dollar amount where the fractional part of a dollar is |
less than 50 cents. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to |
the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
|
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for |
April, May , and June of a given year being due by July 20 of |
such year; with the return for July, August , and September of a |
given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the |
return for October, November , and December of a given year |
being due by January 20 of the following year. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or |
quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax |
liability with the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the |
case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business |
which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act, |
such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the |
Department not more than one month after discontinuing such |
business. |
Where the same person has more than one business |
registered with the Department under separate registrations |
|
under this Act, such person may not file each return that is |
due as a single return covering all such registered |
businesses, but shall file separate returns for each such |
registered business. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this |
Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal |
property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be |
prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return |
for each such item of tangible personal property which the |
retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a |
retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles , or trailers |
transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle , |
or trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle |
retailer , or trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or |
(ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or |
trailers transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor |
vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as a qualifying |
rolling stock as provided in Section 2-5 of this Act, then that |
seller may report the transfer of all aircraft, watercraft, |
motor vehicles , or trailers involved in that transaction to |
the Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction |
reporting return form. For purposes of this Section, |
"watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as |
defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety |
|
Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped with an |
inboard motor. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the |
business of leasing or renting such items and who, in |
connection with such business, sells any such item to a |
retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to |
meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting |
the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, |
or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the |
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form on or before the 20th of the month following the |
month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed |
under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the |
manner and form as required by the Department. |
Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax |
liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such |
transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise |
required to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file |
monthly or quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall |
be required to file returns on an annual basis. |
|
The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor |
vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the |
Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller; |
the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the |
selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such |
other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the |
Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the |
Department may reasonably require. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft |
or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the |
name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling |
price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
|
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and |
such other information as the Department may reasonably |
require. |
Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later |
than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is |
being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner |
than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting |
return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the |
Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of |
the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the |
tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if |
titling or registration is required) if the Department and |
such agency or State officer determine that this procedure |
will expedite the processing of applications for title or |
registration. |
With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer |
shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit |
|
satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is |
the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the |
Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax |
receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is |
satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such |
purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State |
officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible |
personal property that is involved (if titling or registration |
is required) in support of such purchaser's application for an |
Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or |
registration to such tangible personal property. |
No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this |
Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the |
retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other |
evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration |
is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has |
paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The |
Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the |
mandate of this paragraph. |
If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer |
wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment |
of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before |
the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has |
not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the |
fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department |
being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit |
|
the information required by the transaction reporting return |
and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to |
the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption |
determination, in which event the transaction reporting return |
and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be |
credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account |
with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount |
provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays |
the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the |
same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted |
if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer. |
Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return |
period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property |
returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under |
subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case |
may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the |
receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a |
return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act |
with respect to such receipts. |
Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on |
behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president, |
vice-president, secretary , or treasurer or by the properly |
accredited agent of such corporation. |
Where the seller is a limited liability company, the |
return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall |
be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent |
|
of the limited liability company. |
Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing |
the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such |
return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this |
Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75% |
on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, |
whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the |
retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records, |
preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying |
data to the Department on request. On and after January 1, |
2021, a certified service provider, as defined in the Leveling |
the Playing Field for Illinois Retail Act, filing the return |
under this Section on behalf of a remote retailer shall, at the |
time of such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax |
imposed by this Act less a discount of 1.75%. A remote retailer |
using a certified service provider to file a return on its |
behalf, as provided in the Leveling the Playing Field for |
Illinois Retail Act, is not eligible for the discount. When |
determining the discount allowed under this Section, retailers |
shall include the amount of tax that would have been due at the |
1% rate but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700. |
When determining the discount allowed under this Section, |
retailers shall include the amount of tax that would have been |
due at the 6.25% rate but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales |
tax holiday items under Public Act 102-700. The discount under |
this Section is not allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid |
|
on aviation fuel that is subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. Any |
prepayment made pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be |
included in the amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is |
computed. In the case of retailers who report and pay the tax |
on a transaction by transaction basis, as provided in this |
Section, such discount shall be taken with each such tax |
remittance instead of when such retailer files his periodic |
return. The discount allowed under this Section is allowed |
only for returns that are filed in the manner required by this |
Act. The Department may disallow the discount for retailers |
whose certificate of registration is revoked at the time the |
return is filed, but only if the Department's decision to |
revoke the certificate of registration has become final. |
Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax |
Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be |
remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was |
$10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average |
|
monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act, the |
Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service |
Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to |
be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was |
$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began |
prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month |
or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the |
average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department |
for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the |
month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability |
in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985 and |
prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during |
which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment |
shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual |
|
liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability |
for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or |
after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal |
to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of |
the preceding year. If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and |
prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar |
month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount |
of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the |
final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. |
Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by |
taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000 |
or more as determined in the manner provided above shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
|
calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement |
of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by |
taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 |
or more as determined in the manner provided above shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status |
unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not |
|
likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall |
be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
0% in Public Act 102-700 on food for human consumption that is |
to be consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly |
payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and |
through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for |
the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be |
determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 |
had not occurred. Quarter monthly payment status shall be |
determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
1.25% in Public Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not |
occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, |
2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's |
liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" |
shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public |
Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. If any |
such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the |
amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be |
liable for penalties and interest on the difference between |
the minimum amount due as a payment and the amount of such |
quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments |
|
previously due as provided in this Section. The Department |
shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the |
quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment |
dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly |
basis. |
The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1, |
2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make |
quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who |
is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit |
prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in |
excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete |
calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as |
required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the |
Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the |
month during which such liability is incurred. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to |
September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221), |
each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the |
taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to |
22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month |
of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such |
tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, |
each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the |
|
taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the |
taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the |
preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments |
shall be credited against the final tax liability of the |
taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or |
Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the |
requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the |
Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until |
such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during |
the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. |
If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or |
in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for |
penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as |
the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in |
excess of the minimum payments previously due. |
The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after |
October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is |
required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above, |
any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to |
collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid |
taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the |
preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return |
with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make |
payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd , |
and last day of the month during which the liability is |
incurred. Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of |
|
the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the |
taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the |
preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments |
shall be credited against the final tax liability of the |
taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or |
Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the |
requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the |
Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the |
taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the |
preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of |
highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less |
than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly |
liability to the Department as computed for each calendar |
quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less |
than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid |
at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be |
liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month in excess of the minimum payments previously due. |
If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the |
taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the |
Service Occupation Tax Act , and the Service Use Tax Act, as |
shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if |
requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit |
memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The |
credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by |
|
the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act , or the Service Use Tax |
Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be |
prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the |
taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability |
subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act, |
the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act , or the Service |
Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and |
regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department |
subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit |
taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's |
2.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or |
1.75% of the difference between the credit taken and that |
actually due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties |
and interest on such difference. |
If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under |
Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability |
to the Department under this Act for the month for which the |
taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the |
taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the |
State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax imposed under |
this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
|
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a special |
fund in the State treasury which is hereby created, 4% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate other than aviation fuel sold on or after |
December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel only |
applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% |
rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any |
month, the tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in |
Section 2-8, is imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the |
Department shall pay 20% of the net revenue realized for that |
month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of sales tax |
holiday items into the County and Mass Transit District Fund. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of tangible personal property other than |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This |
exception for aviation fuel only applies for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
|
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the |
selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any month, the |
tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in Section 2-8, is |
imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the Department shall pay 80% |
of the net revenue realized for that month from the 1.25% rate |
on the selling price of sales tax holiday items into the Local |
Government Tax Fund. |
Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to |
an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of |
candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had |
been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that |
are now taxed at 6.25%. |
|
Beginning July 1, 2011, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of sorbents used in Illinois in the |
process of sorbent injection as used to comply with the |
Environmental Protection Act or the federal Clean Air Act, but |
the total payment into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund under this |
Act and the Use Tax Act shall not exceed $2,000,000 in any |
fiscal year. |
Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds |
collected under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax |
Act, and the Service Occupation Tax Act an amount equal to the |
average monthly deficit in the Underground Storage Tank Fund |
during the prior year, as certified annually by the Illinois |
Environmental Protection Agency, but the total payment into |
the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Service Occupation Tax |
Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in any State fiscal year. As |
used in this paragraph, the "average monthly deficit" shall be |
equal to the difference between the average monthly claims for |
payment by the fund and the average monthly revenues deposited |
into the fund, excluding payments made pursuant to this |
paragraph. |
Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys |
received by the Department under the Use Tax Act, the Service |
|
Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and this Act, each |
month the Department shall deposit $500,000 into the State |
Crime Laboratory Fund. |
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on |
and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in any fiscal |
year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required |
to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to this Act, |
Section 9 of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax |
Act, and Section 9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts |
being hereinafter called the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of |
2.2% or 3.8%, as the case may be, of moneys being hereinafter |
called the "Tax Act Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to |
the Build Illinois Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax |
Reform Fund shall be less than the Annual Specified Amount (as |
hereinafter defined), an amount equal to the difference shall |
be immediately paid into the Build Illinois Fund from other |
moneys received by the Department pursuant to the Tax Acts; |
the "Annual Specified Amount" means the amounts specified |
below for fiscal years 1986 through 1993: |
|
Fiscal Year | Annual Specified Amount | |
1986 | $54,800,000 | |
1987 | $76,650,000 | |
|
|
1988 | $80,480,000 | |
1989 | $88,510,000 | |

1991 | $145,470,000 | |
1992 | $182,730,000 | |
1993 | $206,520,000; |
|
and means the Certified Annual Debt Service Requirement (as |
defined in Section 13 of the Build Illinois Bond Act) or the |
Tax Act Amount, whichever is greater, for fiscal year 1994 and |
each fiscal year thereafter; and further provided, that if on |
the last business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act |
Amount required to be deposited into the Build Illinois Bond |
Account in the Build Illinois Fund during such month and (2) |
the amount transferred to the Build Illinois Fund from the |
State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less than |
1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to the |
difference shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois |
Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant to |
the Tax Acts; and, further provided, that in no event shall the |
payments required under the preceding proviso result in |
aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to |
this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of the greater of |
(i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount for |
such fiscal year. The amounts payable into the Build Illinois |
Fund under clause (b) of the first sentence in this paragraph |
shall be payable only until such time as the aggregate amount |
|
on deposit under each trust indenture securing Bonds issued |
and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act is |
sufficient, taking into account any future investment income, |
to fully provide, in accordance with such indenture, for the |
defeasance of or the payment of the principal of, premium, if |
any, and interest on the Bonds secured by such indenture and on |
any Bonds expected to be issued thereafter and all fees and |
costs payable with respect thereto, all as certified by the |
Director of the Bureau of the Budget (now Governor's Office of |
Management and Budget). If on the last business day of any |
month in which Bonds are outstanding pursuant to the Build |
Illinois Bond Act, the aggregate of moneys deposited in the |
Build Illinois Bond Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such |
month shall be less than the amount required to be transferred |
in such month from the Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build |
Illinois Bond Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section |
13 of the Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such |
deficiency shall be immediately paid from other moneys |
received by the Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the |
Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that any amounts paid |
to the Build Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this |
sentence shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to |
clause (b) of the first sentence of this paragraph and shall |
reduce the amount otherwise payable for such fiscal year |
pursuant to that clause (b). The moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited |
|
into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim |
and charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond |
Act. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |
as provided in the preceding paragraph or in any amendment |
thereto hereafter enacted, the following specified monthly |
installment of the amount requested in the certificate of the |
Chairman of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority |
provided under Section 8.25f of the State Finance Act, but not |
in excess of sums designated as "Total Deposit", shall be |
deposited in the aggregate from collections under Section 9 of |
the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, Section |
9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, and Section 3 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act into the McCormick Place |
Expansion Project Fund in the specified fiscal years. |

2022 and until July 1, 2023, subject to the payment of amounts |
into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, the Local |
|
Government Tax Fund, the Build Illinois Fund, the McCormick |

and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund as provided in |

revenue realized from the taxes imposed on motor fuel and |
gasohol. Beginning July 1, 2023 and until July 1, 2024, |
subject to the payment of amounts into the County and Mass |
Transit District Fund, the Local Government Tax Fund, the |
Build Illinois Fund, the McCormick Place Expansion Project |
Fund, the Illinois Tax Increment Fund, and the Tax Compliance |
and Administration Fund as provided in this Section, the |
Department shall pay each month into the Road Fund the amount |

the taxes imposed on motor fuel and gasohol. Beginning July 1, |
2024 and until July 1, 2025, subject to the payment of amounts |
into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, the Local |
Government Tax Fund, the Build Illinois Fund, the McCormick |
Place Expansion Project Fund, the Illinois Tax Increment Fund, |

Local Government Tax Fund, the Build Illinois Fund, the |
|
McCormick Place Expansion Project Fund, the Illinois Tax |
Increment Fund, and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
as provided in this Section, the Department shall pay each |

Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, 75% thereof shall be paid into the State |
treasury and 25% shall be reserved in a special account and |
used only for the transfer to the Common School Fund as part of |
the monthly transfer from the General Revenue Fund in |
accordance with Section 8a of the State Finance Act. |
The Department may, upon separate written notice to a |
taxpayer, require the taxpayer to prepare and file with the |
Department on a form prescribed by the Department within not |
less than 60 days after receipt of the notice an annual |
information return for the tax year specified in the notice. |
Such annual return to the Department shall include a statement |
of gross receipts as shown by the retailer's last federal |
Federal income tax return. If the total receipts of the |
business as reported in the federal Federal income tax return |
do not agree with the gross receipts reported to the |
Department of Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall |
|
attach to his annual return a schedule showing a |
reconciliation of the 2 amounts and the reasons for the |
difference. The retailer's annual return to the Department |
shall also disclose the cost of goods sold by the retailer |
during the year covered by such return, opening and closing |
inventories of such goods for such year, costs of goods used |
from stock or taken from stock and given away by the retailer |
during such year, payroll information of the retailer's |
business during such year and any additional reasonable |
information which the Department deems would be helpful in |
determining the accuracy of the monthly, quarterly , or annual |
returns filed by such retailer as provided for in this |
Section. |
If the annual information return required by this Section |
is not filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be liable |
as follows: |
(i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be |
liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due from |
such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be |
covered by the annual return for each month or fraction of |
a month until such return is filed as required, the |
penalty to be assessed and collected in the same manner as |
any other penalty provided for in this Act. |
(ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall |
be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act. |
|
The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner , or highest |
ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the |
accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person who |
willfully signs the annual return containing false or |
inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished |
accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the |
Department shall include a warning that the person signing the |
return may be liable for perjury. |
The provisions of this Section concerning the filing of an |
annual information return do not apply to a retailer who is not |
required to file an income tax return with the United States |
Government. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon |
certification of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller |
shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall transfer from |
the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax Fund an amount |
equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized under this Act |
for the second preceding month. Beginning April 1, 2000, this |
transfer is no longer required and shall not be made. |
Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue |
collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount |
paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for |
overpayment of liability. |
For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers, |
importers and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail in |
Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may |
|
assume the responsibility for accounting and paying to the |
Department all tax accruing under this Act with respect to |
such sales, if the retailers who are affected do not make |
written objection to the Department to this arrangement. |
Any person who promotes, organizes, or provides retail |
selling space for concessionaires or other types of sellers at |
the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin State Fair, county fairs, |
local fairs, art shows, flea markets , and similar exhibitions |
or events, including any transient merchant as defined by |
Section 2 of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required to |
file a report with the Department providing the name of the |
merchant's business, the name of the person or persons engaged |
in merchant's business, the permanent address and Illinois |
Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the merchant, |
the dates and location of the event , and other reasonable |
information that the Department may require. The report must |
be filed not later than the 20th day of the month next |
following the month during which the event with retail sales |
was held. Any person who fails to file a report required by |
this Section commits a business offense and is subject to a |
fine not to exceed $250. |
Any person engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail as a concessionaire or other type |
of seller at the Illinois State Fair, county fairs, art shows, |
flea markets , and similar exhibitions or events, or any |
transient merchants, as defined by Section 2 of the Transient |
|
Merchant Act of 1987, may be required to make a daily report of |
the amount of such sales to the Department and to make a daily |
payment of the full amount of tax due. The Department shall |
impose this requirement when it finds that there is a |
significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an |
exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on evidence |
that a substantial number of concessionaires or other sellers |
who are not residents of Illinois will be engaging in the |
business of selling tangible personal property at retail at |
the exhibition or event, or other evidence of a significant |
risk of loss of revenue to the State. The Department shall |
notify concessionaires and other sellers affected by the |
imposition of this requirement. In the absence of notification |
by the Department, the concessionaires and other sellers shall |
file their returns as otherwise required in this Section. |

Section 75-25. The Innovation Development and Economy Act |
is amended by changing Section 31 as follows: |
(50 ILCS 470/31) |
Sec. 31. STAR bond occupation taxes. |
|
(a) If the corporate authorities of a political |
subdivision have established a STAR bond district and have |
elected to impose a tax by ordinance pursuant to subsection |
(b) or (c) of this Section, each year after the date of the |
adoption of the ordinance and until all STAR bond project |
costs and all political subdivision obligations financing the |
STAR bond project costs, if any, have been paid in accordance |
with the STAR bond project plans, but in no event longer than |
the maximum maturity date of the last of the STAR bonds issued |
for projects in the STAR bond district, all amounts generated |
by the retailers' occupation tax and service occupation tax |
shall be collected and the tax shall be enforced by the |
Department of Revenue in the same manner as all retailers' |
occupation taxes and service occupation taxes imposed in the |
political subdivision imposing the tax. The corporate |
authorities of the political subdivision shall deposit the |
proceeds of the taxes imposed under subsections (b) and (c) |
into either (i) a special fund held by the corporate |
authorities of the political subdivision called the STAR Bonds |
Tax Allocation Fund for the purpose of paying STAR bond |
project costs and obligations incurred in the payment of those |
costs if such taxes are designated as pledged STAR revenues by |
resolution or ordinance of the political subdivision or (ii) |
the political subdivision's general corporate fund if such |
taxes are not designated as pledged STAR revenues by |
resolution or ordinance. |
|
The tax imposed under this Section by a municipality may |
be imposed only on the portion of a STAR bond district that is |
within the boundaries of the municipality. For any part of a |
STAR bond district that lies outside of the boundaries of that |
municipality, the municipality in which the other part of the |
STAR bond district lies (or the county, in cases where a |
portion of the STAR bond district lies in the unincorporated |
area of a county) is authorized to impose the tax under this |
Section on that part of the STAR bond district. |
(b) The corporate authorities of a political subdivision |
that has established a STAR bond district under this Act may, |
by ordinance or resolution, impose a STAR Bond Retailers' |
Occupation Tax upon all persons engaged in the business of |
selling tangible personal property, other than an item of |
tangible personal property titled or registered with an agency |
of this State's government, at retail in the STAR bond |
district at a rate not to exceed 1% of the gross receipts from |
the sales made in the course of that business, to be imposed |
only in 0.25% increments. The tax may not be imposed on |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If the District does |
not have an airport-related purpose to which aviation fuel tax |
|
revenue is dedicated, then aviation fuel is excluded from the |
tax. The municipality must comply with the certification |
requirements for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this |
Act, "airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in |
Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. Beginning January 1, |
2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so |
long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and |
49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the District. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The |
certificate of registration that is issued by the Department |
to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall |
permit the retailer to engage in a business that is taxable |
under any ordinance or resolution enacted pursuant to this |
subsection without registering separately with the Department |
under such ordinance or resolution or under this subsection. |
The Department of Revenue shall have full power to administer |
and enforce this subsection, to collect all taxes and |
penalties due under this subsection in the manner hereinafter |
provided, and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
under this subsection. In the administration of, and |
compliance with, this subsection, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this subsection shall have the same rights, |
|
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, and be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms |
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a through 1o, 2 through 2-65 (in respect to all |
provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 2c |
through 2h, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5i, 5j, 5k, |
5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (b), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsection (c) of this Section. |
(c) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a STAR |
Bond Service Occupation Tax shall also be imposed upon all |
persons engaged, in the STAR bond district, in the business of |
making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those |
sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within |
the STAR bond district, either in the form of tangible |
personal property or in the form of real estate as an incident |
to a sale of service. The tax shall be imposed at the same rate |
as the tax imposed in subsection (b) and shall not exceed 1% of |
|
the selling price of tangible personal property so transferred |
within the STAR bond district, to be imposed only in 0.25% |
increments. The tax may not be imposed on tangible personal |
property taxed at the 1% rate under the Service Occupation Tax |
Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this amendatory Act of the |
102nd General Assembly). Beginning December 1, 2019 and |
through December 31, 2020, this tax is not imposed on sales of |
aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for |
airport-related purposes. If the District does not have an |
airport-related purpose to which aviation fuel tax revenue is |
dedicated, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The |
municipality must comply with the certification requirements |
for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Act, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, |
this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the District. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The |
certificate of registration that is issued by the Department |
to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or under |
the Service Occupation Tax Act shall permit the registrant to |
engage in a business that is taxable under any ordinance or |
|
resolution enacted pursuant to this subsection without |
registering separately with the Department under that |
ordinance or resolution or under this subsection. The |
Department of Revenue shall have full power to administer and |
enforce this subsection, to collect all taxes and penalties |
due under this subsection, to dispose of taxes and penalties |
so collected in the manner hereinafter provided, and to |
determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account of |
the erroneous payment of tax or penalty under this subsection. |
In the administration of, and compliance with this subsection, |
the Department and persons who are subject to this subsection |
shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers, and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, |
and definitions of terms and employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 2, 2a through 2d, 3 |
through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions therein other than |
the State rate of tax), 4 (except that the reference to the |
State shall be to the STAR bond district), 5, 7, 8 (except that |
the jurisdiction to which the tax shall be a debt to the extent |
indicated in that Section 8 shall be the political |
subdivision), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the returned merchandise |
credit for this tax may not be taken against any State tax, and |
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
|
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 10, |
11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference |
to the State shall mean the political subdivision), the first |
paragraph of Section 15, and Sections 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of |
the Service Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (c), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsection (b) of this Section. |
(c-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(d) Persons subject to any tax imposed under this Section |
may reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability |
under this Section by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State taxes that sellers are required |
to collect under the Use Tax Act, in accordance with such |
bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
|
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the STAR Bond Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund |
or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex officio, as trustee, all taxes, penalties, and interest |
collected under this Section for deposit into the STAR Bond |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected |
on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, shall be |
immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. On or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named political |
subdivisions from the STAR Bond Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Fund, the political subdivisions to be those from which |
retailers have paid taxes or penalties under this Section to |
the Department during the second preceding calendar month. The |
|
amount to be paid to each political subdivision shall be the |
amount (not including credit memoranda and not including taxes |
and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or after |
December 1, 2019) collected under this Section during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department plus an |
amount the Department determines is necessary to offset any |
amounts that were erroneously paid to a different taxing body, |
and not including an amount equal to the amount of refunds made |
during the second preceding calendar month by the Department, |
less 3% of that amount, which shall be deposited into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund and shall be used by the |
Department, subject to appropriation, to cover the costs of |
the Department in administering and enforcing the provisions |
of this Section, on behalf of such political subdivision, and |
not including any amount that the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts that were payable to a |
different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the |
political subdivision. Within 10 days after receipt by the |
Comptroller of the disbursement certification to the political |
subdivisions provided for in this Section to be given to the |
Comptroller by the Department, the Comptroller shall cause the |
orders to be drawn for the respective amounts in accordance |
with the directions contained in the certification. The |
proceeds of the tax paid to political subdivisions under this |
Section shall be deposited into either (i) the STAR Bonds Tax |
Allocation Fund by the political subdivision if the political |
|
subdivision has designated them as pledged STAR revenues by |
resolution or ordinance or (ii) the political subdivision's |
general corporate fund if the political subdivision has not |
designated them as pledged STAR revenues. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the |
tax under this Section or effecting a change in the rate |
thereof shall either (i) be adopted and a certified copy |
thereof filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
April, whereupon the Department, if all other requirements of |
this Section are met, shall proceed to administer and enforce |
this Section as of the first day of July next following the |
adoption and filing; or (ii) be adopted and a certified copy |
thereof filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon, if all other requirements of this Section |
are met, the Department shall proceed to administer and |
enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
The Department of Revenue shall not administer or enforce |
an ordinance imposing, discontinuing, or changing the rate of |
the tax under this Section until the political subdivision |
also provides, in the manner prescribed by the Department, the |
boundaries of the STAR bond district and each address in the |
STAR bond district in such a way that the Department can |
determine by its address whether a business is located in the |
STAR bond district. The political subdivision must provide |
this boundary and address information to the Department on or |
|
before April 1 for administration and enforcement of the tax |
under this Section by the Department beginning on the |
following July 1 and on or before October 1 for administration |
and enforcement of the tax under this Section by the |
Department beginning on the following January 1. The |
Department of Revenue shall not administer or enforce any |
change made to the boundaries of a STAR bond district or any |
address change, addition, or deletion until the political |
subdivision reports the boundary change or address change, |
addition, or deletion to the Department in the manner |
prescribed by the Department. The political subdivision must |
provide this boundary change or address change, addition, or |
deletion information to the Department on or before April 1 |
for administration and enforcement by the Department of the |
change, addition, or deletion beginning on the following July |
1 and on or before October 1 for administration and |
enforcement by the Department of the change, addition, or |
deletion beginning on the following January 1. The retailers |
in the STAR bond district shall be responsible for charging |
the tax imposed under this Section. If a retailer is |
incorrectly included or excluded from the list of those |
required to collect the tax under this Section, both the |
Department of Revenue and the retailer shall be held harmless |
if they reasonably relied on information provided by the |
political subdivision. |
A political subdivision that imposes the tax under this |
|
Section must submit to the Department of Revenue any other |
information as the Department may require that is necessary |
for the administration and enforcement of the tax. |
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
political subdivision under this Section, the Department shall |
increase or decrease the amount by an amount necessary to |
offset any misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset |
amount shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the |
previous 6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the political subdivision to impose a tax upon the privilege |
of engaging in any business which under the Constitution of |
the United States may not be made the subject of taxation by |
this State. |
(e) When STAR bond project costs, including, without |
limitation, all political subdivision obligations financing |
STAR bond project costs, have been paid, any surplus funds |
then remaining in the STAR Bonds Tax Allocation Fund shall be |
distributed to the treasurer of the political subdivision for |
deposit into the political subdivision's general corporate |
fund. Upon payment of all STAR bond project costs and |
retirement of obligations, but in no event later than the |
maximum maturity date of the last of the STAR bonds issued in |
the STAR bond district, the political subdivision shall adopt |
an ordinance immediately rescinding the taxes imposed pursuant |
to this Section and file a certified copy of the ordinance with |
|
the Department in the form and manner as described in this |
Section. |

Section 75-30. The Counties Code is amended by changing |
Sections 5-1006, 5-1006.5, 5-1006.7, 5-1007, and 5-1008.5 as |
follows: |
(55 ILCS 5/5-1006) (from Ch. 34, par. 5-1006) |
Sec. 5-1006. Home Rule County Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Law. Any county that is a home rule unit may impose a tax upon |
all persons engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property, other than an item of tangible personal |
property titled or registered with an agency of this State's |
government, at retail in the county on the gross receipts from |
such sales made in the course of their business. If imposed, |
this tax shall only be imposed in 1/4% increments. On and after |
September 1, 1991, this additional tax may not be imposed on |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the county does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
|
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The county must comply |
with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" |
has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State |
Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation fuel only applies for |
so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. The changes made |
to this Section by this amendatory Act of the 101st General |
Assembly are a denial and limitation of home rule powers and |
functions under subsection (g) of Section 6 of Article VII of |
the Illinois Constitution. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |
with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
General Assembly. |
The tax imposed by a home rule county pursuant to this |
Section and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an |
incident thereof shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The certificate of registration that is |
issued by the Department to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act shall permit the retailer to engage in a |
|
business that is taxable under any ordinance or resolution |
enacted pursuant to this Section without registering |
separately with the Department under such ordinance or |
resolution or under this Section. The Department shall have |
full power to administer and enforce this Section; to collect |
all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and |
penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account |
of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the |
administration of, and compliance with, this Section, the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers |
and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, |
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, 1n, 2 through |
2-65 (in respect to all provisions therein other than the |
State rate of tax), 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes |
and penalties collected, and except that the retailer's |
discount is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that |
are subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, |
5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 |
and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of |
the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
|
No tax may be imposed by a home rule county pursuant to |
this Section unless the county also imposes a tax at the same |
rate pursuant to Section 5-1007. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed pursuant to the |
authority granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for |
their seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating |
such tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax which sellers |
are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such |
bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the home rule county retailers' occupation |
tax fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as |
appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, ex |
officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
hereunder for deposit into the Home Rule County Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation |
fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, shall be immediately |
paid over by the Department to the State Treasurer, ex |
|
officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay moneys into |
the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under this Section |
for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named counties, the |
counties to be those from which retailers have paid taxes or |
penalties hereunder to the Department during the second |
preceding calendar month. The amount to be paid to each county |
shall be the amount (not including credit memoranda and not |
including taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019) collected hereunder during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department plus an |
amount the Department determines is necessary to offset any |
amounts that were erroneously paid to a different taxing body, |
|
and not including an amount equal to the amount of refunds made |
during the second preceding calendar month by the Department |
on behalf of such county, and not including any amount which |
the Department determines is necessary to offset any amounts |
which were payable to a different taxing body but were |
erroneously paid to the county, and not including any amounts |
that are transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% |
of the remainder, which the Department shall transfer into the |
Tax Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
time of each monthly disbursement to the counties, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this Section. Within 10 days after receipt, by the |
Comptroller, of the disbursement certification to the counties |
and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund provided for in |
this Section to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, |
the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with the directions contained |
in the certification. |
In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding |
paragraph, an allocation shall be made in March of each year to |
each county that received more than $500,000 in disbursements |
under the preceding paragraph in the preceding calendar year. |
The allocation shall be in an amount equal to the average |
monthly distribution made to each such county under the |
preceding paragraph during the preceding calendar year |
|
(excluding the 2 months of highest receipts). The distribution |
made in March of each year subsequent to the year in which an |
allocation was made pursuant to this paragraph and the |
preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the amount allocated |
and disbursed under this paragraph in the preceding calendar |
year. The Department shall prepare and certify to the |
Comptroller for disbursement the allocations made in |
accordance with this paragraph. |
For the purpose of determining the local governmental unit |
whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of coal or |
other mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail at the |
place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois is |
extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a sale |
in interstate or foreign commerce. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in any |
business which under the Constitution of the United States may |
not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be |
adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the Department |
on or before the first day of June, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the |
|
first day of September next following such adoption and |
filing. Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance or resolution |
imposing or discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a |
change in the rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified |
copy thereof filed with the Department on or before the first |
day of July, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce this Section as of the first day of |
October next following such adoption and filing. Beginning |
January 1, 1993, an ordinance or resolution imposing or |
discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a change in the |
rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following such adoption and filing. Beginning April 1, 1998, |
an ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall |
either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with |
the Department on or before the first day of April, whereupon |
the Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of July next following the adoption |
and filing; or (ii) be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
|
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
county under this Section, the Department shall increase or |
decrease such amount by an amount necessary to offset any |
misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset amount |
shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous |
6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
This Section shall be known and may be cited as the Home |
Rule County Retailers' Occupation Tax Law. |

Abuse, or Transportation. |
(a) The county board of any county may impose a tax upon |
all persons engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property, other than personal property titled or |
registered with an agency of this State's government, at |
retail in the county on the gross receipts from the sales made |
in the course of business to provide revenue to be used |
exclusively for public safety, public facility, mental health, |
substance abuse, or transportation purposes in that county |
(except as otherwise provided in this Section), if a |
proposition for the tax has been submitted to the electors of |
that county and approved by a majority of those voting on the |
|
question. If imposed, this tax shall be imposed only in |
one-quarter percent increments. By resolution, the county |
board may order the proposition to be submitted at any |
election. If the tax is imposed for transportation purposes |
for expenditures for public highways or as authorized under |
the Illinois Highway Code, the county board must publish |
notice of the existence of its long-range highway |
transportation plan as required or described in Section 5-301 |
of the Illinois Highway Code and must make the plan publicly |
available prior to approval of the ordinance or resolution |
imposing the tax. If the tax is imposed for transportation |
purposes for expenditures for passenger rail transportation, |
the county board must publish notice of the existence of its |
long-range passenger rail transportation plan and must make |
the plan publicly available prior to approval of the ordinance |
or resolution imposing the tax. |
If a tax is imposed for public facilities purposes, then |
the name of the project may be included in the proposition at |
the discretion of the county board as determined in the |

"This would mean that a consumer would pay an |
additional (insert amount) in sales tax for every $100 of |
tangible personal property bought at retail." |
The county board may also opt to establish a sunset |
provision at which time the additional sales tax would |
cease being collected, if not terminated earlier by a vote |
of the county board. If the county board votes to include a |
sunset provision, the proposition for public safety |
purposes shall be in substantially the following form: |
"To pay for public safety purposes, shall (name of |

This additional tax may not be imposed on tangible |
personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this |
|
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If the county does not |
have an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation |
fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. |
The county must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, |
this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. The tax imposed by a |
county under this Section and all civil penalties that may be |
assessed as an incident of the tax shall be collected and |
enforced by the Illinois Department of Revenue and deposited |
into a special fund created for that purpose. The certificate |
of registration that is issued by the Department to a retailer |
under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall permit the |
retailer to engage in a business that is taxable without |
registering separately with the Department under an ordinance |
or resolution under this Section. The Department has full |
power to administer and enforce this Section, to collect all |
taxes and penalties due under this Section, to dispose of |
taxes and penalties so collected in the manner provided in |
|
this Section, and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of a tax or penalty |
under this Section. In the administration of and compliance |
with this Section, the Department and persons who are subject |
to this Section shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, |
privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to |
the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, |
1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, 1n, 2 through 2-70 (in respect to all |
provisions contained in those Sections other than the State |
rate of tax), 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 (except provisions relating to |
transaction returns and quarter monthly payments, and except |
that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes paid on |
aviation fuel that are deposited into the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, |
5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 11a, 12, and 13 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act as if those provisions were |
set forth in this Section. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their |
sellers' tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax which sellers are required |
to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such bracketed |
|
schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the County Public Safety, Public Facilities, |
Mental Health, Substance Abuse, or Transportation Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust |
Fund, as appropriate. |
(b) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (a), a |
service occupation tax shall also be imposed at the same rate |
upon all persons engaged, in the county, in the business of |
making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those |
sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within |
the county as an incident to a sale of service. This tax may |
not be imposed on tangible personal property taxed at the 1% |
rate under the Service Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate |
imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly). Beginning December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless |
the tax revenue is expended for airport-related purposes. If |
the county does not have an airport-related purpose to which |
it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is |
excluded from the tax. The county must comply with the |
|
certification requirements for airport-related purposes under |
Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For |
purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" has the |
meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. |
Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of |
aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil penalties |
that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be collected |
and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The Department has |
full power to administer and enforce this subsection; to |
collect all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose of |
taxes and penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter |
provided; and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
hereunder. In the administration of and compliance with this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
paragraph shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, |
privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to |
the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, |
exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms, and (iii) |
employ the same modes of procedure as are prescribed in |
Sections 2 (except that the reference to State in the |
definition of supplier maintaining a place of business in this |
State shall mean the county), 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 through 3-50 (in |
respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate of |
|
tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
county), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the tax |
shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 shall |
be the county), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are |
deposited into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund), 10, |
11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference |
to the State shall mean the county), Section 15, 16, 17, 18, |
19, and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, and Section 3-7 |
of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax that servicemen are |
authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, in |
accordance with such bracket schedules as the Department may |
prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
|
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the County Public Safety, Public Facilities, |
Mental Health, Substance Abuse, or Transportation Retailers' |
Occupation Fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, |
as appropriate. |
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to authorize |
the county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(b-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
under this Section to be deposited into the County Public |
Safety, Public Facilities, Mental Health, Substance Abuse, or |
Transportation Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund, which shall be |
an unappropriated trust fund held outside of the State |
treasury. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, |
|
shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Act for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to the counties from |
which retailers have paid taxes or penalties to the Department |
during the second preceding calendar month. The amount to be |
paid to each county, and deposited by the county into its |
special fund created for the purposes of this Section, shall |
be the amount (not including credit memoranda and not |
including taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020) |
collected under this Section during the second preceding |
|
calendar month by the Department plus an amount the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and not including |
(i) an amount equal to the amount of refunds made during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department on behalf of |
the county, (ii) any amount that the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts that were payable to a |
different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the county, |
(iii) any amounts that are transferred to the STAR Bonds |
Revenue Fund, and (iv) 1.5% of the remainder, which shall be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund. |
The Department, at the time of each monthly disbursement to |
the counties, shall prepare and certify to the State |
Comptroller the amount to be transferred into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund under this subsection. |
Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of the |
disbursement certification to the counties and the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund provided for in this |
Section to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, the |
Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with directions contained in |
the certification. |
In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding |
paragraph, an allocation shall be made in March of each year to |
each county that received more than $500,000 in disbursements |
under the preceding paragraph in the preceding calendar year. |
|
The allocation shall be in an amount equal to the average |
monthly distribution made to each such county under the |
preceding paragraph during the preceding calendar year |
(excluding the 2 months of highest receipts). The distribution |
made in March of each year subsequent to the year in which an |
allocation was made pursuant to this paragraph and the |
preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the amount allocated |
and disbursed under this paragraph in the preceding calendar |
year. The Department shall prepare and certify to the |
Comptroller for disbursement the allocations made in |
accordance with this paragraph. |
(d) For the purpose of determining the local governmental |
unit whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of |
coal or another mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail |
at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois |
is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or another mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a sale |
in interstate or foreign commerce. |
(e) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to |
authorize a county to impose a tax upon the privilege of |
engaging in any business that under the Constitution of the |
United States may not be made the subject of taxation by this |
State. |
(e-5) If a county imposes a tax under this Section, the |
|
county board may, by ordinance, discontinue or lower the rate |
of the tax. If the county board lowers the tax rate or |
discontinues the tax, a referendum must be held in accordance |
with subsection (a) of this Section in order to increase the |
rate of the tax or to reimpose the discontinued tax. |
(f) Beginning April 1, 1998 and through December 31, 2013, |
the results of any election authorizing a proposition to |
impose a tax under this Section or effecting a change in the |
rate of tax, or any ordinance lowering the rate or |
discontinuing the tax, shall be certified by the county clerk |
and filed with the Illinois Department of Revenue either (i) |
on or before the first day of April, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce the tax as of the first |
day of July next following the filing; or (ii) on or before the |
first day of October, whereupon the Department shall proceed |
to administer and enforce the tax as of the first day of |
January next following the filing. |
Beginning January 1, 2014, the results of any election |
authorizing a proposition to impose a tax under this Section |
or effecting an increase in the rate of tax, along with the |
ordinance adopted to impose the tax or increase the rate of the |
tax, or any ordinance adopted to lower the rate or discontinue |
the tax, shall be certified by the county clerk and filed with |
the Illinois Department of Revenue either (i) on or before the |
first day of May, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce the tax as of the first day of July next |
|
following the adoption and filing; or (ii) on or before the |
first day of October, whereupon the Department shall proceed |
to administer and enforce the tax as of the first day of |
January next following the adoption and filing. |
(g) When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement |
to a county under this Section, the Department shall increase |
or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary to offset any |
miscalculation of previous disbursements. The offset amount |
shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous |
6 months from the time a miscalculation is discovered. |
(g-5) Every county authorized to levy a tax under this |
Section shall, before it levies such tax, establish a 7-member |
mental health board, which shall have the same powers and |
duties and be constituted in the same manner as a community |
mental health board established under the Community Mental |
Health Act. Proceeds of the tax under this Section that are |
earmarked for mental health or substance abuse purposes shall |
be deposited into a special county occupation tax fund for |
mental health and substance abuse. The 7-member mental health |
board established under this subsection shall administer the |
special county occupation tax fund for mental health and |
substance abuse in the same manner as the community mental |
health board administers the community mental health fund |
under the Community Mental Health Act. |
(h) This Section may be cited as the "Special County |
Occupation Tax For Public Safety, Public Facilities, Mental |
|
Health, Substance Abuse, or Transportation Law". |
(i) For purposes of this Section, "public safety" |
includes, but is not limited to, crime prevention, detention, |
fire fighting, police, medical, ambulance, or other emergency |
services. The county may share tax proceeds received under |
this Section for public safety purposes, including proceeds |
received before August 4, 2009 (the effective date of Public |
Act 96-124), with any fire protection district located in the |
county. For the purposes of this Section, "transportation" |
includes, but is not limited to, the construction, |
maintenance, operation, and improvement of public highways, |
any other purpose for which a county may expend funds under the |
Illinois Highway Code, and passenger rail transportation. For |
the purposes of this Section, "public facilities purposes" |
includes, but is not limited to, the acquisition, development, |
construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, improvement, |
financing, architectural planning, and installation of capital |
facilities consisting of buildings, structures, and durable |
equipment and for the acquisition and improvement of real |
property and interest in real property required, or expected |
to be required, in connection with the public facilities, for |
use by the county for the furnishing of governmental services |
to its citizens, including, but not limited to, museums and |
nursing homes. |
(j) The Department may promulgate rules to implement |
Public Act 95-1002 only to the extent necessary to apply the |
|
existing rules for the Special County Retailers' Occupation |
Tax for Public Safety to this new purpose for public |
facilities. |

Sec. 5-1006.7. School facility and resources occupation |
taxes. |
(a) In any county, a tax shall be imposed upon all persons |
engaged in the business of selling tangible personal property, |
other than personal property titled or registered with an |
agency of this State's government, at retail in the county on |
the gross receipts from the sales made in the course of |
business to provide revenue to be used exclusively for (i) |
school facility purposes (except as otherwise provided in this |
Section), (ii) school resource officers and mental health |
professionals, or (iii) school facility purposes, school |
resource officers, and mental health professionals if a |
proposition for the tax has been submitted to the electors of |
that county and approved by a majority of those voting on the |
question as provided in subsection (c). The tax under this |
Section shall be imposed only in one-quarter percent |
increments and may not exceed 1%. |
This additional tax may not be imposed on tangible |
|
personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under Public Act |
102-700). Beginning December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless |
the tax revenue is expended for airport-related purposes. If |
the county does not have an airport-related purpose to which |
it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is |
excluded from the tax. The county must comply with the |
certification requirements for airport-related purposes under |
Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For |
purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" has the |
meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. |
Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of |
aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
The Department of Revenue has full power to administer and |
enforce this subsection, to collect all taxes and penalties |
due under this subsection, to dispose of taxes and penalties |
so collected in the manner provided in this subsection, and to |
determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account of |
the erroneous payment of a tax or penalty under this |
subsection. The Department shall deposit all taxes and |
penalties collected under this subsection into a special fund |
created for that purpose. |
In the administration of and compliance with this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
|
subsection (i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) are subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) shall employ the same modes of |
procedure as are set forth in Sections 1 through 1o, 2 through |
2-70 (in respect to all provisions contained in those Sections |
other than the State rate of tax), 2a through 2h, 3 (except as |
to the disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and |
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, |
5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, |
6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 11a, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of the Uniform Penalty |
and Interest Act as if those provisions were set forth in this |
subsection. |
The certificate of registration that is issued by the |
Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act permits the retailer to engage in a business that is |
taxable without registering separately with the Department |
under an ordinance or resolution under this subsection. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
seller's tax liability by separately stating that tax as an |
additional charge, which may be stated in combination, in a |
single amount, with State tax that sellers are required to |
|
collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to any bracketed |
schedules set forth by the Department. |
(b) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (a), then a |
service occupation tax must also be imposed at the same rate |
upon all persons engaged, in the county, in the business of |
making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those |
sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within |
the county as an incident to a sale of service. |
This tax may not be imposed on tangible personal property |
taxed at the 1% rate under the Service Occupation Tax Act (or |
at the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700). Beginning |
December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If the county does not |
have an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation |
fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. |
The county must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, |
this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
|
collected and enforced by the Department and deposited into a |
special fund created for that purpose. The Department has full |
power to administer and enforce this subsection, to collect |
all taxes and penalties due under this subsection, to dispose |
of taxes and penalties so collected in the manner provided in |
this subsection, and to determine all rights to credit |
memoranda arising on account of the erroneous payment of a tax |
or penalty under this subsection. |
In the administration of and compliance with this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
subsection shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, |
privileges, immunities, powers and duties, (ii) be subject to |
the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties and |
definition of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are set forth in Sections 2 (except that that |
reference to State in the definition of supplier maintaining a |
place of business in this State means the county), 2a through |
2d, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions contained in |
those Sections other than the State rate of tax), 4 (except |
that the reference to the State shall be to the county), 5, 7, |
8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the tax is a debt to |
the extent indicated in that Section 8 is the county), 9 |
(except as to the disposition of taxes and penalties |
collected, and except that the retailer's discount is not |
allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
|
47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any |
reference to the State means the county), 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, |
and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of |
the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which may be stated in combination, in a |
single amount, with State tax that servicemen are authorized |
to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, pursuant to any |
bracketed schedules set forth by the Department. |
(b-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(c) The tax under this Section may not be imposed until the |
question of imposing the tax has been submitted to the |
electors of the county at a regular election and approved by a |
majority of the electors voting on the question. For all |
regular elections held prior to August 23, 2011 (the effective |
|
date of Public Act 97-542), upon a resolution by the county |
board or a resolution by school district boards that represent |
at least 51% of the student enrollment within the county, the |
county board must certify the question to the proper election |

purposes? |
The election authority must record the votes as "Yes" or |
"No". |
If a majority of the electors voting on the question vote |
in the affirmative, then the county may, thereafter, impose |
the tax. |
For all regular elections held on or after August 23, 2011 |
(the effective date of Public Act 97-542), the regional |
superintendent of schools for the county must, upon receipt of |
a resolution or resolutions of school district boards that |
represent more than 50% of the student enrollment within the |
county, certify the question to the proper election authority |
for submission to the electors of the county at the next |
|
regular election at which the question lawfully may be |
submitted to the electors, all in accordance with the Election |
Code. |
For all regular elections held on or after August 23, 2011 |
(the effective date of Public Act 97-542) and before August |
23, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act 101-455), the |
election authority must submit the question in substantially |
the following form: |
Shall a retailers' occupation tax and a service |
occupation tax (commonly referred to as a "sales tax") be |
imposed in (name of county) at a rate of (insert rate) to |
be used exclusively for school facility purposes? |

mental health professionals, the question shall be in |
substantially the following form: |
In addition to school facility purposes, shall |
|
(name of county) school districts be authorized to use |

(3) If the referendum is to impose a tax in a county |
that has not previously imposed a tax under this Section |
exclusively for school facility purposes, the question |
shall be in substantially the following form: |
Shall a retailers' occupation tax and a service |
occupation tax (commonly referred to as a sales tax) |
be imposed in (name of county) at a rate of (insert |

The election authority must record the votes as "Yes" or |
"No". |
If a majority of the electors voting on the question vote |

For the purposes of this subsection (c), "enrollment" |
|
means the head count of the students residing in the county on |
the last school day of September of each year, which must be |
reported on the Illinois State Board of Education Public |
School Fall Enrollment/Housing Report. |
(d) Except as otherwise provided, the Department shall |
immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as |
trustee, all taxes and penalties collected under this Section |
to be deposited into the School Facility Occupation Tax Fund, |
which shall be an unappropriated trust fund held outside the |
State treasury. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel |
sold on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020, shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the |
State Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the |
Local Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall |
only pay moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund |
under this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
county. |
On or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to the regional |
superintendents of schools in counties from which retailers or |
servicemen have paid taxes or penalties to the Department |
during the second preceding calendar month. The amount to be |
paid to each regional superintendent of schools and disbursed |
to him or her in accordance with Section 3-14.31 of the School |
|
Code, is equal to the amount (not including credit memoranda |
and not including taxes and penalties collected on aviation |
fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020) collected from the county under this Section during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department, (i) less 2% |
of that amount (except the amount collected on aviation fuel |
sold on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020), of which 50% shall be deposited into the Tax Compliance |
and Administration Fund and shall be used by the Department, |
subject to appropriation, to cover the costs of the Department |
in administering and enforcing the provisions of this Section, |
on behalf of the county, and 50% shall be distributed to the |
regional superintendent of schools to cover the costs in |
administering and enforcing the provisions of this Section; |
(ii) plus an amount that the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts that were erroneously paid to |
a different taxing body; (iii) less an amount equal to the |
amount of refunds made during the second preceding calendar |
month by the Department on behalf of the county; and (iv) less |
any amount that the Department determines is necessary to |
offset any amounts that were payable to a different taxing |
body but were erroneously paid to the county. When certifying |
the amount of a monthly disbursement to a regional |
superintendent of schools under this Section, the Department |
shall increase or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary |
to offset any miscalculation of previous disbursements within |
|
the previous 6 months from the time a miscalculation is |
discovered. |
Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller from the |
Department of the disbursement certification to the regional |
superintendents of the schools provided for in this Section, |
the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with directions contained in |
the certification. |
If the Department determines that a refund should be made |
under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a credit |
memorandum, then the Department shall notify the Comptroller, |
who shall cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified |
and to the person named in the notification from the |
Department. The refund shall be paid by the Treasurer out of |
the School Facility Occupation Tax Fund or the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
(e) For the purposes of determining the local governmental |
unit whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of |
coal or another mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail |
at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois |
is extracted from the earth. This subsection does not apply to |
coal or another mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a sale |
in interstate or foreign commerce. |
(f) Nothing in this Section may be construed to authorize |
|
a tax to be imposed upon the privilege of engaging in any |
business that under the Constitution of the United States may |
not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
(g) If a county board imposes a tax under this Section |
pursuant to a referendum held before August 23, 2011 (the |
effective date of Public Act 97-542) at a rate below the rate |
set forth in the question approved by a majority of electors of |
that county voting on the question as provided in subsection |
(c), then the county board may, by ordinance, increase the |
rate of the tax up to the rate set forth in the question |
approved by a majority of electors of that county voting on the |
question as provided in subsection (c). If a county board |
imposes a tax under this Section pursuant to a referendum held |
before August 23, 2011 (the effective date of Public Act |
97-542), then the board may, by ordinance, discontinue or |
reduce the rate of the tax. If a tax is imposed under this |
Section pursuant to a referendum held on or after August 23, |
2011 (the effective date of Public Act 97-542) and before |
August 23, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act 101-455), |
then the county board may reduce or discontinue the tax, but |
only in accordance with subsection (h-5) of this Section. If a |
tax is imposed under this Section pursuant to a referendum |
held on or after August 23, 2019 (the effective date of Public |
Act 101-455), then the county board may reduce or discontinue |
the tax, but only in accordance with subsection (h-10). If, |
however, a school board issues bonds that are secured by the |
|
proceeds of the tax under this Section, then the county board |
may not reduce the tax rate or discontinue the tax if that rate |
reduction or discontinuance would adversely affect the school |
board's ability to pay the principal and interest on those |
bonds as they become due or necessitate the extension of |
additional property taxes to pay the principal and interest on |
those bonds. If the county board reduces the tax rate or |
discontinues the tax, then a referendum must be held in |
accordance with subsection (c) of this Section in order to |
increase the rate of the tax or to reimpose the discontinued |
tax. |
Until January 1, 2014, the results of any election that |
imposes, reduces, or discontinues a tax under this Section |
must be certified by the election authority, and any ordinance |
that increases or lowers the rate or discontinues the tax must |
be certified by the county clerk and, in each case, filed with |
the Illinois Department of Revenue either (i) on or before the |
first day of April, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce the tax or change in the rate as of the |
first day of July next following the filing; or (ii) on or |
before the first day of October, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce the tax or change in |
the rate as of the first day of January next following the |
filing. |
Beginning January 1, 2014, the results of any election |
that imposes, reduces, or discontinues a tax under this |
|
Section must be certified by the election authority, and any |
ordinance that increases or lowers the rate or discontinues |
the tax must be certified by the county clerk and, in each |
case, filed with the Illinois Department of Revenue either (i) |
on or before the first day of May, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce the tax or change in |
the rate as of the first day of July next following the filing; |
or (ii) on or before the first day of October, whereupon the |
Department shall proceed to administer and enforce the tax or |
change in the rate as of the first day of January next |
following the filing. |
(h) For purposes of this Section, "school facility |
purposes" means (i) the acquisition, development, |
construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, improvement, |
financing, architectural planning, and installation of capital |
facilities consisting of buildings, structures, and durable |
equipment and for the acquisition and improvement of real |
property and interest in real property required, or expected |
to be required, in connection with the capital facilities and |
(ii) the payment of bonds or other obligations heretofore or |
hereafter issued, including bonds or other obligations |
heretofore or hereafter issued to refund or to continue to |
refund bonds or other obligations issued, for school facility |
purposes, provided that the taxes levied to pay those bonds |
are abated by the amount of the taxes imposed under this |
Section that are used to pay those bonds. "School facility |
|
purposes" also includes fire prevention, safety, energy |
conservation, accessibility, school security, and specified |
repair purposes set forth under Section 17-2.11 of the School |
Code. |
(h-5) A county board in a county where a tax has been |
imposed under this Section pursuant to a referendum held on or |
after August 23, 2011 (the effective date of Public Act |
97-542) and before August 23, 2019 (the effective date of |
Public Act 101-455) may, by ordinance or resolution, submit to |
the voters of the county the question of reducing or |
discontinuing the tax. In the ordinance or resolution, the |
county board shall certify the question to the proper election |
authority in accordance with the Election Code. The election |
authority must submit the question in substantially the |
following form: |
Shall the school facility retailers' occupation tax |
and service occupation tax (commonly referred to as the |
"school facility sales tax") currently imposed in (name of |
county) at a rate of (insert rate) be (reduced to (insert |
rate))(discontinued)? |
If a majority of the electors voting on the question vote in |
the affirmative, then, subject to the provisions of subsection |
(g) of this Section, the tax shall be reduced or discontinued |
as set forth in the question. |
(h-10) A county board in a county where a tax has been |
imposed under this Section pursuant to a referendum held on or |
|
after August 23, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act |
101-455) may, by ordinance or resolution, submit to the voters |
of the county the question of reducing or discontinuing the |
tax. In the ordinance or resolution, the county board shall |
certify the question to the proper election authority in |
accordance with the Election Code. The election authority must |
submit the question in substantially the following form: |
Shall the school facility and resources retailers' |
occupation tax and service occupation tax (commonly |
referred to as the school facility and resources sales |
tax) currently imposed in (name of county) at a rate of |
(insert rate) be (reduced to (insert rate)) |
(discontinued)? |
The election authority must record the votes as "Yes" or |
"No". |
If a majority of the electors voting on the question vote |
in the affirmative, then, subject to the provisions of |
subsection (g) of this Section, the tax shall be reduced or |
discontinued as set forth in the question. |
(i) This Section does not apply to Cook County. |
(j) This Section may be cited as the County School |
Facility and Resources Occupation Tax Law. |

(55 ILCS 5/5-1007) (from Ch. 34, par. 5-1007) |
|
Sec. 5-1007. Home Rule County Service Occupation Tax Law. |
The corporate authorities of a home rule county may impose a |
tax upon all persons engaged, in such county, in the business |
of making sales of service at the same rate of tax imposed |
pursuant to Section 5-1006 of the selling price of all |
tangible personal property transferred by such servicemen |
either in the form of tangible personal property or in the form |
of real estate as an incident to a sale of service. If imposed, |
such tax shall only be imposed in 1/4% increments. On and after |
September 1, 1991, this additional tax may not be imposed on |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Service Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the county does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The county must comply |
with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" |
has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State |
Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation fuel only applies for |
so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. The changes made |
to this Section by this amendatory Act of the 101st General |
|
Assembly are a denial and limitation of home rule powers and |
functions under subsection (g) of Section 6 of Article VII of |
the Illinois Constitution. The tax imposed by a home rule |
county pursuant to this Section and all civil penalties that |
may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be collected and |
enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The certificate |
of registration which is issued by the Department to a |
retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or under the |
Service Occupation Tax Act shall permit such registrant to |
engage in a business which is taxable under any ordinance or |
resolution enacted pursuant to this Section without |
registering separately with the Department under such |
ordinance or resolution or under this Section. The Department |
shall have full power to administer and enforce this Section; |
to collect all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose |
of taxes and penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter |
provided; and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance with, this |
Section the Department and persons who are subject to this |
Section shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers and duties, and be subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties and |
definitions of terms, and employ the same modes of procedure, |
as are prescribed in Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in |
respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate of |
|
tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
taxing county), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which |
the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section |
8 shall be the taxing county), 9 (except as to the disposition |
of taxes and penalties collected, and except that the returned |
merchandise credit for this county tax may not be taken |
against any State tax, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to |
Section 2b of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except |
that any reference to the State shall mean the taxing county), |
the first paragraph of Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of the |
Service Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth herein. |
No tax may be imposed by a home rule county pursuant to |
this Section unless such county also imposes a tax at the same |
rate pursuant to Section 5-1006. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |
with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
|
General Assembly. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed pursuant to the |
authority granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for |
their serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately |
stating such tax as an additional charge, which charge may be |
stated in combination, in a single amount, with State tax |
which servicemen are authorized to collect under the Service |
Use Tax Act, pursuant to such bracket schedules as the |
Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in such |
notification from the Department. Such refund shall be paid by |
the State Treasurer out of the home rule county retailers' |
occupation tax fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust |
Fund, as appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, ex |
officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
hereunder for deposit into the Home Rule County Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation |
fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, shall be immediately |
paid over by the Department to the State Treasurer, ex |
officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local Government |
|
Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay moneys into |
the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under this Section |
for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named counties, the |
counties to be those from which suppliers and servicemen have |
paid taxes or penalties hereunder to the Department during the |
second preceding calendar month. The amount to be paid to each |
county shall be the amount (not including credit memoranda and |
not including taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel |
sold on or after December 1, 2019) collected hereunder during |
the second preceding calendar month by the Department, and not |
including an amount equal to the amount of refunds made during |
the second preceding calendar month by the Department on |
behalf of such county, and not including any amounts that are |
|
transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% of the |
remainder, which the Department shall transfer into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
time of each monthly disbursement to the counties, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this Section. Within 10 days after receipt, by the |
Comptroller, of the disbursement certification to the counties |
and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund provided for in |
this Section to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, |
the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with the directions contained |
in such certification. |
In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding |
paragraph, an allocation shall be made in each year to each |
county which received more than $500,000 in disbursements |
under the preceding paragraph in the preceding calendar year. |
The allocation shall be in an amount equal to the average |
monthly distribution made to each such county under the |
preceding paragraph during the preceding calendar year |
(excluding the 2 months of highest receipts). The distribution |
made in March of each year subsequent to the year in which an |
allocation was made pursuant to this paragraph and the |
preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the amount allocated |
and disbursed under this paragraph in the preceding calendar |
year. The Department shall prepare and certify to the |
|
Comptroller for disbursement the allocations made in |
accordance with this paragraph. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in any |
business which under the Constitution of the United States may |
not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be |
adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the Department |
on or before the first day of June, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the |
first day of September next following such adoption and |
filing. Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance or resolution |
imposing or discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a |
change in the rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified |
copy thereof filed with the Department on or before the first |
day of July, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce this Section as of the first day of |
October next following such adoption and filing. Beginning |
January 1, 1993, an ordinance or resolution imposing or |
discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a change in the |
rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following such adoption and filing. Beginning April 1, 1998, |
|
an ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall |
either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with |
the Department on or before the first day of April, whereupon |
the Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of July next following the adoption |
and filing; or (ii) be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
This Section shall be known and may be cited as the Home |
Rule County Service Occupation Tax Law. |

Sec. 5-1008.5. Use and occupation taxes. |
(a) The Rock Island County Board may adopt a resolution |
that authorizes a referendum on the question of whether the |
county shall be authorized to impose a retailers' occupation |
tax, a service occupation tax, and a use tax at a rate of 1/4 |
of 1% on behalf of the economic development activities of Rock |
Island County and communities located within the county. The |
county board shall certify the question to the proper election |
authorities who shall submit the question to the voters of the |
|
county at the next regularly scheduled election in accordance |
with the general election law. The question shall be in |
substantially the following form: |
Shall Rock Island County be authorized to impose a |
retailers' occupation tax, a service occupation tax, and a |
use tax at the rate of 1/4 of 1% for the sole purpose of |
economic development activities, including creation and |
retention of job opportunities, support of affordable |
housing opportunities, and enhancement of quality of life |
improvements? |
Votes shall be recorded as "yes" or "no". If a majority of |
all votes cast on the proposition are in favor of the |
proposition, the county is authorized to impose the tax. |
(b) The county shall impose the retailers' occupation tax |
upon all persons engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in the county, at the rate |
approved by referendum, on the gross receipts from the sales |
made in the course of those businesses within the county. This |
additional tax may not be imposed on tangible personal |
property taxed at the 1% rate under the Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Act. Beginning December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for |
airport-related purposes. If the county does not have an |
airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel |
tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The |
county must comply with the certification requirements for |
|
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
county. The tax imposed under this Section and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident of the tax shall |
be collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The |
Department has full power to administer and enforce this |
Section; to collect all taxes and penalties so collected in |
the manner provided in this Section; and to determine all |
rights to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
payment of tax or penalty under this Section. In the |
administration of, and compliance with, this Section, the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
(i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers and duties, (ii) be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, |
and definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1c, 1d, |
1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, 1n, 2, 2-5, 2-5.5, 2-10 (in respect to |
all provisions other than the State rate of tax), 2-15 through |
2-70, 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected and provisions related to quarter monthly |
payments, and except that the retailer's discount is not |
|
allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |

Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and |
Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were set forth in |
this subsection. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under this subsection |
may reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability by |
separately stating the tax as an additional charge, which |
charge may be stated in combination, in a single amount, with |
State taxes that sellers are required to collect, in |
accordance with bracket schedules prescribed by the |
Department. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, |
as appropriate. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (b), a tax shall |
also be imposed at the same rate under subsections (c) and (d) |
of this Section. |
|
For the purpose of determining whether a tax authorized |
under this Section is applicable, a retail sale, by a producer |
of coal or another mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at |
retail at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in |
Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not |
apply to coal or another mineral when it is delivered or |
shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a point outside |
Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the federal |
Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business that under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
(c) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a |
service occupation tax shall also be imposed at the same rate |
upon all persons engaged, in the county, in the business of |
making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those |
sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within |
the county as an incident to a sale of service. This additional |
tax may not be imposed on tangible personal property taxed at |
the 1% rate under the Service Occupation Tax Act. Beginning |
December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the county does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The county must comply |
|
with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" |
has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State |
Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation fuel only applies for |
so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the county. The tax imposed |
under this subsection and all civil penalties that may be |
assessed as an incident of the tax shall be collected and |
enforced by the Department of Revenue. The Department has full |
power to administer and enforce this paragraph; to collect all |
taxes and penalties due under this Section; to dispose of |
taxes and penalties so collected in the manner provided in |
this Section; and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
under this Section. In the administration of, and compliance |
with this paragraph, the Department and persons who are |
subject to this paragraph shall (i) have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms, |
and (iii) employ the same modes of procedure as are prescribed |
in Sections 2 (except that the reference to State in the |
definition of supplier maintaining a place of business in this |
State shall mean the county), 2a, 2b, 3 through 3-55 (in |
respect to all provisions other than the State rate of tax), 4 |
|
(except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
county), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the tax |
shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 shall |
be the county), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the returned merchandise |
credit for this tax may not be taken against any State tax, and |
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 11, |
12 (except the reference to Section 2b of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference to the |
State shall mean the county), 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of the |
Service Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth in this subsection. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax that servicemen are |
authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, in |
accordance with bracket schedules prescribed by the |
Department. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
|
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, |
as appropriate. |
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize |
the county to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business that under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(c-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(d) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a use |
tax shall also be imposed at the same rate upon the privilege |
of using, in the county, any item of tangible personal |
property that is purchased outside the county at retail from a |
retailer, and that is titled or registered at a location |
within the county with an agency of this State's government. |
"Selling price" is defined as in the Use Tax Act. The tax shall |
be collected from persons whose Illinois address for titling |
|
or registration purposes is given as being in the county. The |
tax shall be collected by the Department of Revenue for the |
county. The tax must be paid to the State, or an exemption |
determination must be obtained from the Department of Revenue, |
before the title or certificate of registration for the |
property may be issued. The tax or proof of exemption may be |
transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with |
which, or the State officer with whom, the tangible personal |
property must be titled or registered if the Department and |
the State agency or State officer determine that this |
procedure will expedite the processing of applications for |
title or registration. |
The Department has full power to administer and enforce |
this paragraph; to collect all taxes, penalties, and interest |
due under this Section; to dispose of taxes, penalties, and |
interest so collected in the manner provided in this Section; |
and to determine all rights to credit memoranda or refunds |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty, |
or interest under this Section. In the administration of, and |
compliance with, this subsection, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this paragraph shall (i) have the same |
rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, |
(ii) be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, |
limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 2 (except the |
|
definition of "retailer maintaining a place of business in |
this State"), 3, 3-5, 3-10, 3-45, 3-55, 3-65, 3-70, 3-85, 3a, |
4, 6, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the tax shall |
be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 shall be |
the county), 9 (except provisions relating to quarter monthly |
payments), 10, 11, 12, 12a, 12b, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21, and 22 |
of the Use Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and |
Interest Act, that are not inconsistent with this paragraph, |
as fully as if those provisions were set forth in this |
subsection. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section. |
(e) A certificate of registration issued by the State |
Department of Revenue to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act |
shall permit the registrant to engage in a business that is |
taxed under the tax imposed under paragraphs (b), (c), or (d) |
of this Section and no additional registration shall be |
required. A certificate issued under the Use Tax Act or the |
Service Use Tax Act shall be applicable with regard to any tax |
|
imposed under paragraph (c) of this Section. |
(f) The results of any election authorizing a proposition |
to impose a tax under this Section or effecting a change in the |
rate of tax shall be certified by the proper election |
authorities and filed with the Illinois Department on or |
before the first day of October. In addition, an ordinance |
imposing, discontinuing, or effecting a change in the rate of |
tax under this Section shall be adopted and a certified copy of |
the ordinance filed with the Department on or before the first |
day of October. After proper receipt of the certifications, |
the Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of January next following the |
adoption and filing. |
(g) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (g-2), the |
Department of Revenue shall, upon collecting any taxes and |
penalties as provided in this Section, pay the taxes and |
penalties over to the State Treasurer as trustee for the |
county. The taxes and penalties shall be held in a trust fund |
outside the State Treasury. On or before the 25th day of each |
calendar month, the Department of Revenue shall prepare and |
certify to the Comptroller of the State of Illinois the amount |
to be paid to the county, which shall be the balance in the |
fund, less any amount determined by the Department to be |
necessary for the payment of refunds. Within 10 days after |
receipt by the Comptroller of the certification of the amount |
to be paid to the county, the Comptroller shall cause an order |
|
to be drawn for payment for the amount in accordance with the |
directions contained in the certification. Amounts received |
from the tax imposed under this Section shall be used only for |
the economic development activities of the county and |
communities located within the county. |
(g-2) Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019, shall be immediately paid over by |
the Department to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, |
for deposit into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund. The |
Department shall only pay moneys into the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund under this Section for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the county. |
(h) When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement |
to the county under this Section, the Department shall |
increase or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary to |
offset any miscalculation of previous disbursements. The |
offset amount shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within |
the previous 6 months from the time a miscalculation is |
discovered. |

and Occupation Tax Law. |

Section 75-35. The Illinois Municipal Code is amended by |
|
changing Sections 8-11-1, 8-11-1.3, 8-11-1.4, 8-11-1.6, |
8-11-1.7, and 11-74.3-6 as follows: |
(65 ILCS 5/8-11-1) (from Ch. 24, par. 8-11-1) |
Sec. 8-11-1. Home Rule Municipal Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. The corporate authorities of a home rule municipality may |
impose a tax upon all persons engaged in the business of |
selling tangible personal property, other than an item of |
tangible personal property titled or registered with an agency |
of this State's government, at retail in the municipality on |
the gross receipts from these sales made in the course of such |
business. If imposed, the tax shall only be imposed in 1/4% |
increments. On and after September 1, 1991, this additional |
tax may not be imposed on tangible personal property taxed at |
the 1% rate under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act (or at the |
0% rate imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly). Beginning December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed |
on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended |
for airport-related purposes. If a municipality does not have |
an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel |
tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. Each |
municipality must comply with the certification requirements |
for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
|
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
municipality. The changes made to this Section by this |
amendatory Act of the 101st General Assembly are a denial and |
limitation of home rule powers and functions under subsection |
(g) of Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois Constitution. |
The tax imposed by a home rule municipality under this Section |
and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident of |
the tax shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The certificate of registration that is |
issued by the Department to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act shall permit the retailer to engage in a |
business that is taxable under any ordinance or resolution |
enacted pursuant to this Section without registering |
separately with the Department under such ordinance or |
resolution or under this Section. The Department shall have |
full power to administer and enforce this Section; to collect |
all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and |
penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account |
of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the |
administration of, and compliance with, this Section the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers |
and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, |
|
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, 1n, 2 through 2-65 |
(in respect to all provisions therein other than the State |
rate of tax), 2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, |
5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth herein. |
No tax may be imposed by a home rule municipality under |
this Section unless the municipality also imposes a tax at the |
same rate under Section 8-11-5 of this Act. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |
with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
General Assembly. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their |
seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating that |
|
tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax which sellers |
are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such |
bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the home rule municipal retailers' occupation |
tax fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as |
appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
hereunder for deposit into the Home Rule Municipal Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation |
fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, shall be immediately |
paid over by the Department to the State Treasurer, ex |
officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay moneys into |
the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under this Section |
for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
|
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named municipalities, |
the municipalities to be those from which retailers have paid |
taxes or penalties hereunder to the Department during the |
second preceding calendar month. The amount to be paid to each |
municipality shall be the amount (not including credit |
memoranda and not including taxes and penalties collected on |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019) collected |
hereunder during the second preceding calendar month by the |
Department plus an amount the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts that were erroneously paid to |
a different taxing body, and not including an amount equal to |
the amount of refunds made during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department on behalf of such |
municipality, and not including any amount that the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
payable to a different taxing body but were erroneously paid |
|
to the municipality, and not including any amounts that are |
transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% of the |
remainder, which the Department shall transfer into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
time of each monthly disbursement to the municipalities, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this Section. Within 10 days after receipt by the |
Comptroller of the disbursement certification to the |
municipalities and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
provided for in this Section to be given to the Comptroller by |
the Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be |
drawn for the respective amounts in accordance with the |
directions contained in the certification. |
In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding |
paragraph and in order to mitigate delays caused by |
distribution procedures, an allocation shall, if requested, be |
made within 10 days after January 14, 1991, and in November of |
1991 and each year thereafter, to each municipality that |
received more than $500,000 during the preceding fiscal year, |
(July 1 through June 30) whether collected by the municipality |
or disbursed by the Department as required by this Section. |
Within 10 days after January 14, 1991, participating |
municipalities shall notify the Department in writing of their |
intent to participate. In addition, for the initial |
distribution, participating municipalities shall certify to |
|
the Department the amounts collected by the municipality for |
each month under its home rule occupation and service |
occupation tax during the period July 1, 1989 through June 30, |
1990. The allocation within 10 days after January 14, 1991, |
shall be in an amount equal to the monthly average of these |
amounts, excluding the 2 months of highest receipts. The |
monthly average for the period of July 1, 1990 through June 30, |
1991 will be determined as follows: the amounts collected by |
the municipality under its home rule occupation and service |
occupation tax during the period of July 1, 1990 through |
September 30, 1990, plus amounts collected by the Department |
and paid to such municipality through June 30, 1991, excluding |
the 2 months of highest receipts. The monthly average for each |
subsequent period of July 1 through June 30 shall be an amount |
equal to the monthly distribution made to each such |
municipality under the preceding paragraph during this period, |
excluding the 2 months of highest receipts. The distribution |
made in November 1991 and each year thereafter under this |
paragraph and the preceding paragraph shall be reduced by the |
amount allocated and disbursed under this paragraph in the |
preceding period of July 1 through June 30. The Department |
shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller for disbursement |
the allocations made in accordance with this paragraph. |
For the purpose of determining the local governmental unit |
whose tax is applicable, a retail sale by a producer of coal or |
other mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail at the |
|
place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois is |
extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a sale |
in interstate or foreign commerce. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
An ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing a tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be |
adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the Department |
on or before the first day of June, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the |
first day of September next following the adoption and filing. |
Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance or resolution imposing |
or discontinuing the tax hereunder or effecting a change in |
the rate thereof shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of July, |
whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer and |
enforce this Section as of the first day of October next |
following such adoption and filing. Beginning January 1, 1993, |
an ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be |
adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with the Department |
|
on or before the first day of October, whereupon the |
Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of January next following the |
adoption and filing. However, a municipality located in a |
county with a population in excess of 3,000,000 that elected |
to become a home rule unit at the general primary election in |
1994 may adopt an ordinance or resolution imposing the tax |
under this Section and file a certified copy of the ordinance |
or resolution with the Department on or before July 1, 1994. |
The Department shall then proceed to administer and enforce |
this Section as of October 1, 1994. Beginning April 1, 1998, an |
ordinance or resolution imposing or discontinuing the tax |
hereunder or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall |
either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with |
the Department on or before the first day of April, whereupon |
the Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of July next following the adoption |
and filing; or (ii) be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this Section as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
municipality under this Section, the Department shall increase |
or decrease the amount by an amount necessary to offset any |
misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset amount |
|
shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous |
6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
Any unobligated balance remaining in the Municipal |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund on December 31, 1989, which |
fund was abolished by Public Act 85-1135, and all receipts of |
municipal tax as a result of audits of liability periods prior |
to January 1, 1990, shall be paid into the Local Government Tax |
Fund for distribution as provided by this Section prior to the |
enactment of Public Act 85-1135. All receipts of municipal tax |
as a result of an assessment not arising from an audit, for |
liability periods prior to January 1, 1990, shall be paid into |
the Local Government Tax Fund for distribution before July 1, |
1990, as provided by this Section prior to the enactment of |
Public Act 85-1135; and on and after July 1, 1990, all such |
receipts shall be distributed as provided in Section 6z-18 of |
the State Finance Act. |
As used in this Section, "municipal" and "municipality" |
means a city, village or incorporated town, including an |
incorporated town that has superseded a civil township. |

Sec. 8-11-1.3. Non-Home Rule Municipal Retailers' |
|
Occupation Tax Act. The corporate authorities of a non-home |
rule municipality may impose a tax upon all persons engaged in |
the business of selling tangible personal property, other than |
on an item of tangible personal property which is titled and |
registered by an agency of this State's Government, at retail |
in the municipality for expenditure on public infrastructure |
or for property tax relief or both as defined in Section |
8-11-1.2 if approved by referendum as provided in Section |
8-11-1.1, of the gross receipts from such sales made in the |
course of such business. If the tax is approved by referendum |
on or after July 14, 2010 (the effective date of Public Act |
96-1057), the corporate authorities of a non-home rule |
municipality may, until July 1, 2030, use the proceeds of the |
tax for expenditure on municipal operations, in addition to or |
in lieu of any expenditure on public infrastructure or for |
property tax relief. The tax imposed may not be more than 1% |
and may be imposed only in 1/4% increments. The tax may not be |
imposed on tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate |
under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate |
imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly). Beginning December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed |
on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended |
for airport-related purposes. If a municipality does not have |
an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel |
tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. Each |
municipality must comply with the certification requirements |
|
for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
municipality. The tax imposed by a municipality pursuant to |
this Section and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an |
incident thereof shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The certificate of registration which |
is issued by the Department to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act shall permit such retailer to engage in a |
business which is taxable under any ordinance or resolution |
enacted pursuant to this Section without registering |
separately with the Department under such ordinance or |
resolution or under this Section. The Department shall have |
full power to administer and enforce this Section; to collect |
all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and |
penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter provided, and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda, arising on |
account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. |
In the administration of, and compliance with, this Section, |
the Department and persons who are subject to this Section |
shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, |
|
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65 (in |
respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate of |
tax), 2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |

Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth herein. |
No municipality may impose a tax under this Section unless |
the municipality also imposes a tax at the same rate under |
Section 8-11-1.4 of this Code. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |
with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
General Assembly. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed pursuant to the |
authority granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for |
their seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating |
|
such tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax which sellers |
are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such |
bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in such |
notification from the Department. Such refund shall be paid by |
the State Treasurer out of the non-home rule municipal |
retailers' occupation tax fund or the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided, the Department shall |
forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as |
trustee, all taxes and penalties collected hereunder for |
deposit into the Non-Home Rule Municipal Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019, shall be immediately paid over by |
the Department to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, |
for deposit into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund. The |
Department shall only pay moneys into the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund under this Section for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the municipality. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
|
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named municipalities, |
the municipalities to be those from which retailers have paid |
taxes or penalties hereunder to the Department during the |
second preceding calendar month. The amount to be paid to each |
municipality shall be the amount (not including credit |
memoranda and not including taxes and penalties collected on |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019) collected |
hereunder during the second preceding calendar month by the |
Department plus an amount the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts which were erroneously paid to |
a different taxing body, and not including an amount equal to |
the amount of refunds made during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department on behalf of such |
municipality, and not including any amount which the |
Department determines is necessary to offset any amounts which |
were payable to a different taxing body but were erroneously |
|
paid to the municipality, and not including any amounts that |
are transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% of |
the remainder, which the Department shall transfer into the |
Tax Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
time of each monthly disbursement to the municipalities, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this Section. Within 10 days after receipt, by the |
Comptroller, of the disbursement certification to the |
municipalities and the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
provided for in this Section to be given to the Comptroller by |
the Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be |
drawn for the respective amounts in accordance with the |
directions contained in such certification. |
For the purpose of determining the local governmental unit |
whose tax is applicable, a retail sale, by a producer of coal |
or other mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at retail at the |
place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois is |
extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the Federal Constitution as a sale in |
interstate or foreign commerce. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the constitution of the United States |
|
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
municipality under this Section, the Department shall increase |
or decrease such amount by an amount necessary to offset any |
misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset amount |
shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous |
6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
The Department of Revenue shall implement Public Act |
91-649 so as to collect the tax on and after January 1, 2002. |
As used in this Section, "municipal" and "municipality" |
mean a city, village, or incorporated town, including an |
incorporated town which has superseded a civil township. |

Sec. 8-11-1.4. Non-Home Rule Municipal Service Occupation |
Tax Act. The corporate authorities of a non-home rule |
municipality may impose a tax upon all persons engaged, in |
such municipality, in the business of making sales of service |
for expenditure on public infrastructure or for property tax |
relief or both as defined in Section 8-11-1.2 if approved by |
referendum as provided in Section 8-11-1.1, of the selling |
|
price of all tangible personal property transferred by such |
servicemen either in the form of tangible personal property or |
in the form of real estate as an incident to a sale of service. |
If the tax is approved by referendum on or after July 14, 2010 |
(the effective date of Public Act 96-1057), the corporate |
authorities of a non-home rule municipality may, until |
December 31, 2030, use the proceeds of the tax for expenditure |
on municipal operations, in addition to or in lieu of any |
expenditure on public infrastructure or for property tax |
relief. The tax imposed may not be more than 1% and may be |
imposed only in 1/4% increments. The tax may not be imposed on |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Service Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If a municipality does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. Each municipality must |
comply with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" |
has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State |
Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation fuel only applies for |
so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the municipality. The tax |
|
imposed by a municipality pursuant to this Section and all |
civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof |
shall be collected and enforced by the State Department of |
Revenue. The certificate of registration which is issued by |
the Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act shall permit |
such registrant to engage in a business which is taxable under |
any ordinance or resolution enacted pursuant to this Section |
without registering separately with the Department under such |
ordinance or resolution or under this Section. The Department |
shall have full power to administer and enforce this Section; |
to collect all taxes and penalties due hereunder; to dispose |
of taxes and penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter |
provided, and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance with, this |
Section the Department and persons who are subject to this |
Section shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers and duties, and be subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties and |

as are prescribed in Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in |
respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate of |
tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
taxing municipality), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to |
which the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that |
|
Section 8 shall be the taxing municipality), 9 (except as to |
the disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and except |
that the returned merchandise credit for this municipal tax |
may not be taken against any State tax, and except that the |
retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation |
fuel that are subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the |

No municipality may impose a tax under this Section unless |
the municipality also imposes a tax at the same rate under |
Section 8-11-1.3 of this Code. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |

hereunder for deposit into the municipal retailers' occupation |
tax fund. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |

or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be adopted and |
a certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or |
before the first day of October, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the |
first day of January next following such adoption and filing. |
The certificate of registration that is issued by the |
Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act shall permit the |
registrant to engage in a business that is taxable under any |
ordinance or resolution enacted under this Section without |
registering separately with the Department under the ordinance |
or resolution or under this Section. The Department shall have |
full power to administer and enforce this Section, to collect |
all taxes and penalties due hereunder, to dispose of taxes and |
penalties so collected in a manner hereinafter provided, and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account |
of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the |
administration of and compliance with this Section, the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers, and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
|
restrictions, limitations, penalties and definitions of terms, |
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all |
provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 4 |
(except that the reference to the State shall be to the taxing |
municipality), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which |
the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section |
8 shall be the taxing municipality), 9 (except as to the |
disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and except that |
the returned merchandise credit for this municipal tax may not |
be taken against any State tax, and except that the retailer's |
discount is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that |
are subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 10, 11, 12, (except the |
reference therein to Section 2b of the Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference to the State shall mean |
the taxing municipality), the first paragraph of Sections 15, |
16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and |
Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully |
as if those provisions were set forth herein. |
A tax may not be imposed by a municipality under this |
Section unless the municipality also imposes a tax at the same |
rate under Section 8-11-1.6 of this Act. |
If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government has in |
effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, 2025, |
a unit of local government imposes a tax under this Section, |
|
then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal property |
in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that date in |
the same manner as the tax under this Section and in accordance |
with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
General Assembly. |
Person subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their |
servicemen's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the |
tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax that |
servicemen are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax |
Act, under such bracket schedules as the Department may |
prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in such |
notification from the Department. The refund shall be paid by |
the State Treasurer out of the Non-Home Rule Municipal |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund or the Local Government |
Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, ex |
officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
hereunder for deposit into the Non-Home Rule Municipal |
|
Retailers' Occupation Tax Fund. Taxes and penalties collected |
on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, shall be |
immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
Municipality. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named municipalities, |
the municipalities to be those from which suppliers and |
servicemen have paid taxes or penalties hereunder to the |
Department during the second preceding calendar month. The |
amount to be paid to each municipality shall be the amount (not |
including credit memoranda and not including taxes and |
|
penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December |
1, 2019) collected hereunder during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department, and not including an amount |
equal to the amount of refunds made during the second |
preceding calendar month by the Department on behalf of such |
municipality, and not including any amounts that are |
transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% of the |
remainder, which the Department shall transfer into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
time of each monthly disbursement to the municipalities, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this Section. Within 10 days after receipt by the |
Comptroller of the disbursement certification to the |
municipalities, the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund, |
and the General Revenue Fund, provided for in this Section to |
be given to the Comptroller by the Department, the Comptroller |
shall cause the orders to be drawn for the respective amounts |
in accordance with the directions contained in the |
certification. |
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
municipality under this Section, the Department shall increase |
or decrease the amount by an amount necessary to offset any |
misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset amount |
shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the previous |
6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
|
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize a |
municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |

Sec. 11-74.3-6. Business district revenue and obligations; |
business district tax allocation fund. |
(a) If the corporate authorities of a municipality have |
approved a business district plan, have designated a business |
district, and have elected to impose a tax by ordinance |
pursuant to subsection (10) or (11) of Section 11-74.3-3, then |
each year after the date of the approval of the ordinance but |
terminating upon the date all business district project costs |
and all obligations paying or reimbursing business district |
project costs, if any, have been paid, but in no event later |
than the dissolution date, all amounts generated by the |
retailers' occupation tax and service occupation tax shall be |
collected and the tax shall be enforced by the Department of |
Revenue in the same manner as all retailers' occupation taxes |
and service occupation taxes imposed in the municipality |
imposing the tax and all amounts generated by the hotel |
operators' occupation tax shall be collected and the tax shall |
be enforced by the municipality in the same manner as all hotel |
|
operators' occupation taxes imposed in the municipality |
imposing the tax. The corporate authorities of the |
municipality shall deposit the proceeds of the taxes imposed |
under subsections (10) and (11) of Section 11-74.3-3 into a |
special fund of the municipality called the "[Name of] |
Business District Tax Allocation Fund" for the purpose of |
paying or reimbursing business district project costs and |
obligations incurred in the payment of those costs. |
(b) The corporate authorities of a municipality that has |
designated a business district under this Law may, by |
ordinance, impose a Business District Retailers' Occupation |
Tax upon all persons engaged in the business of selling |
tangible personal property, other than an item of tangible |
personal property titled or registered with an agency of this |
State's government, at retail in the business district at a |
rate not to exceed 1% of the gross receipts from the sales made |
in the course of such business, to be imposed only in 0.25% |
increments. The tax may not be imposed on tangible personal |
property taxed at the rate of 1% under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If the District does |
not have an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates |
aviation fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from |
|
the tax. Each municipality must comply with the certification |
requirements for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this |
Section, "airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed |
in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. Beginning January |
1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel for |
so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the District. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The |
certificate of registration that is issued by the Department |
to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall |
permit the retailer to engage in a business that is taxable |
under any ordinance or resolution enacted pursuant to this |
subsection without registering separately with the Department |
under such ordinance or resolution or under this subsection. |
The Department of Revenue shall have full power to administer |
and enforce this subsection; to collect all taxes and |
penalties due under this subsection in the manner hereinafter |
provided; and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
under this subsection. In the administration of, and |
compliance with, this subsection, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this subsection shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be |
|
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms |
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a through 1o, 2 through 2-65 (in respect to all |
provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 2c |
through 2h, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, |
6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of the Uniform Penalty |
and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were set |
forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under this subsection |
may reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability |
under this subsection by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State taxes that sellers are required |
to collect under the Use Tax Act, in accordance with such |
bracket schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
|
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the business district retailers' occupation |
tax fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as |
appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex officio, as trustee, all taxes, penalties, and interest |
collected under this subsection for deposit into the business |
district retailers' occupation tax fund. Taxes and penalties |
collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, |
shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this subsection during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
|
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named municipalities |
from the business district retailers' occupation tax fund, the |
municipalities to be those from which retailers have paid |
taxes or penalties under this subsection to the Department |
during the second preceding calendar month. The amount to be |
paid to each municipality shall be the amount (not including |
credit memoranda and not including taxes and penalties |
collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019) |
collected under this subsection during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department plus an amount the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and not including |
an amount equal to the amount of refunds made during the second |
preceding calendar month by the Department, less 2% of that |
amount (except the amount collected on aviation fuel sold on |
or after December 1, 2019), which shall be deposited into the |
Tax Compliance and Administration Fund and shall be used by |
the Department, subject to appropriation, to cover the costs |
of the Department in administering and enforcing the |
provisions of this subsection, on behalf of such municipality, |
and not including any amount that the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts that were payable to a |
different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the |
municipality, and not including any amounts that are |
|
transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund. Within 10 days |
after receipt by the Comptroller of the disbursement |
certification to the municipalities provided for in this |
subsection to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, |
the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with the directions contained |
in the certification. The proceeds of the tax paid to |
municipalities under this subsection shall be deposited into |
the Business District Tax Allocation Fund by the municipality. |
An ordinance imposing or discontinuing the tax under this |
subsection or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall |
either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with |
the Department on or before the first day of April, whereupon |
the Department, if all other requirements of this subsection |
are met, shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
subsection as of the first day of July next following the |
adoption and filing; or (ii) be adopted and a certified copy |
thereof filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon, if all other requirements of this |
subsection are met, the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce this subsection as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
The Department of Revenue shall not administer or enforce |
an ordinance imposing, discontinuing, or changing the rate of |
the tax under this subsection, until the municipality also |
provides, in the manner prescribed by the Department, the |
|
boundaries of the business district and each address in the |
business district in such a way that the Department can |
determine by its address whether a business is located in the |
business district. The municipality must provide this boundary |
and address information to the Department on or before April 1 |
for administration and enforcement of the tax under this |
subsection by the Department beginning on the following July 1 |
and on or before October 1 for administration and enforcement |
of the tax under this subsection by the Department beginning |
on the following January 1. The Department of Revenue shall |
not administer or enforce any change made to the boundaries of |
a business district or address change, addition, or deletion |
until the municipality reports the boundary change or address |
change, addition, or deletion to the Department in the manner |
prescribed by the Department. The municipality must provide |
this boundary change information or address change, addition, |
or deletion to the Department on or before April 1 for |
administration and enforcement by the Department of the change |
beginning on the following July 1 and on or before October 1 |
for administration and enforcement by the Department of the |
change beginning on the following January 1. The retailers in |
the business district shall be responsible for charging the |
tax imposed under this subsection. If a retailer is |
incorrectly included or excluded from the list of those |
required to collect the tax under this subsection, both the |
Department of Revenue and the retailer shall be held harmless |
|
if they reasonably relied on information provided by the |
municipality. |
A municipality that imposes the tax under this subsection |
must submit to the Department of Revenue any other information |
as the Department may require for the administration and |
enforcement of the tax. |
When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement to a |
municipality under this subsection, the Department shall |
increase or decrease the amount by an amount necessary to |
offset any misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset |
amount shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the |
previous 6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to authorize |
the municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of |
engaging in any business which under the Constitution of the |
United States may not be made the subject of taxation by this |
State. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (b), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsection (c) of this Section. |
(c) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a |
Business District Service Occupation Tax shall also be imposed |
upon all persons engaged, in the business district, in the |
business of making sales of service, who, as an incident to |
making those sales of service, transfer tangible personal |
property within the business district, either in the form of |
tangible personal property or in the form of real estate as an |
|
incident to a sale of service. The tax shall be imposed at the |
same rate as the tax imposed in subsection (b) and shall not |
exceed 1% of the selling price of tangible personal property |
so transferred within the business district, to be imposed |
only in 0.25% increments. The tax may not be imposed on |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Service Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the District does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. Each municipality must |
comply with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Act, "airport-related purposes" has |
the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance |
Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the District. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The |
certificate of registration which is issued by the Department |
to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or under |
|
the Service Occupation Tax Act shall permit such registrant to |
engage in a business which is taxable under any ordinance or |
resolution enacted pursuant to this subsection without |
registering separately with the Department under such |
ordinance or resolution or under this subsection. The |
Department of Revenue shall have full power to administer and |
enforce this subsection; to collect all taxes and penalties |
due under this subsection; to dispose of taxes and penalties |
so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to |
determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account of |
the erroneous payment of tax or penalty under this subsection. |
In the administration of, and compliance with this subsection, |
the Department and persons who are subject to this subsection |
shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, |
and definitions of terms and employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 2, 2a through 2d, 3 |
through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions therein other than |
the State rate of tax), 4 (except that the reference to the |
State shall be to the business district), 5, 7, 8 (except that |
the jurisdiction to which the tax shall be a debt to the extent |
indicated in that Section 8 shall be the municipality), 9 |
(except as to the disposition of taxes and penalties |
collected, and except that the returned merchandise credit for |
this tax may not be taken against any State tax, and except |
|
that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes paid on |
aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 10, 11, 12 (except |
the reference therein to Section 2b of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference to the |
State shall mean the municipality), the first paragraph of |
Section 15, and Sections 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of the Service |
Occupation Tax Act and all provisions of the Uniform Penalty |
and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were set |
forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the |
tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax that |
servicemen are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax |
Act, in accordance with such bracket schedules as the |
Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in such |
notification from the Department. Such refund shall be paid by |
the State Treasurer out of the business district retailers' |
occupation tax fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust |
|
Fund, as appropriate. |
Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall forthwith pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex-officio, as trustee, all taxes, penalties, and interest |
collected under this subsection for deposit into the business |
district retailers' occupation tax fund. Taxes and penalties |
collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, |
shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |

on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to named municipalities |
|
from the business district retailers' occupation tax fund, the |
municipalities to be those from which suppliers and servicemen |

Department during the second preceding calendar month. The |
amount to be paid to each municipality shall be the amount (not |
including credit memoranda and not including taxes and |
penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December |
1, 2019) collected under this subsection during the second |
preceding calendar month by the Department, less 2% of that |
amount (except the amount collected on aviation fuel sold on |
or after December 1, 2019), which shall be deposited into the |
Tax Compliance and Administration Fund and shall be used by |
the Department, subject to appropriation, to cover the costs |
of the Department in administering and enforcing the |
provisions of this subsection, and not including an amount |
equal to the amount of refunds made during the second |
preceding calendar month by the Department on behalf of such |
municipality, and not including any amounts that are |
transferred to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund. Within 10 days |
after receipt, by the Comptroller, of the disbursement |
certification to the municipalities, provided for in this |
subsection to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, |
the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with the directions contained |

the Business District Tax Allocation Fund by the municipality. |
An ordinance imposing or discontinuing the tax under this |
subsection or effecting a change in the rate thereof shall |
either (i) be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed with |

thereof filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon, if all other conditions of this subsection |
are met, the Department shall proceed to administer and |
enforce this subsection as of the first day of January next |
following the adoption and filing. |
The Department of Revenue shall not administer or enforce |
an ordinance imposing, discontinuing, or changing the rate of |
the tax under this subsection, until the municipality also |
provides, in the manner prescribed by the Department, the |
boundaries of the business district in such a way that the |
Department can determine by its address whether a business is |
located in the business district. The municipality must |
provide this boundary and address information to the |
Department on or before April 1 for administration and |
enforcement of the tax under this subsection by the Department |
beginning on the following July 1 and on or before October 1 |
for administration and enforcement of the tax under this |
|
subsection by the Department beginning on the following |

enforce any change made to the boundaries of a business |
district or address change, addition, or deletion until the |
municipality reports the boundary change or address change, |
addition, or deletion to the Department in the manner |
prescribed by the Department. The municipality must provide |
this boundary change information or address change, addition, |
or deletion to the Department on or before April 1 for |
administration and enforcement by the Department of the change |
beginning on the following July 1 and on or before October 1 |
for administration and enforcement by the Department of the |

incorrectly included or excluded from the list of those |
required to collect the tax under this subsection, both the |
Department of Revenue and the retailer shall be held harmless |
if they reasonably relied on information provided by the |
municipality. |
A municipality that imposes the tax under this subsection |
must submit to the Department of Revenue any other information |
as the Department may require for the administration and |
enforcement of the tax. |
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to authorize |
the municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of |
|
engaging in any business which under the Constitution of the |
United States may not be made the subject of taxation by the |
State. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (c), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsection (b) of this Section. |
(c-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(d) By ordinance, a municipality that has designated a |
business district under this Law may impose an occupation tax |
upon all persons engaged in the business district in the |
business of renting, leasing, or letting rooms in a hotel, as |
defined in the Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax Act, at a rate |
not to exceed 1% of the gross rental receipts from the renting, |
leasing, or letting of hotel rooms within the business |
district, to be imposed only in 0.25% increments, excluding, |
however, from gross rental receipts the proceeds of renting, |
leasing, or letting to permanent residents of a hotel, as |
defined in the Hotel Operators' Occupation Tax Act, and |
proceeds from the tax imposed under subsection (c) of Section |
13 of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority Act. |
|
The tax imposed by the municipality under this subsection |
and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident to |
that tax shall be collected and enforced by the municipality |
imposing the tax. The municipality shall have full power to |
administer and enforce this subsection, to collect all taxes |
and penalties due under this subsection, to dispose of taxes |
and penalties so collected in the manner provided in this |
subsection, and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
under this subsection. In the administration of and compliance |
with this subsection, the municipality and persons who are |
subject to this subsection shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, shall be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, and definitions of terms, and shall employ the same |
modes of procedure as are employed with respect to a tax |
adopted by the municipality under Section 8-3-14 of this Code. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
tax liability for that tax by separately stating that tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State taxes imposed under the Hotel |
Operators' Occupation Tax Act, and with any other tax. |
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to authorize |
a municipality to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging |
in any business which under the Constitution of the United |
|
States may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
The proceeds of the tax imposed under this subsection |
shall be deposited into the Business District Tax Allocation |
Fund. |
(e) Obligations secured by the Business District Tax |
Allocation Fund may be issued to provide for the payment or |
reimbursement of business district project costs. Those |
obligations, when so issued, shall be retired in the manner |
provided in the ordinance authorizing the issuance of those |
obligations by the receipts of taxes imposed pursuant to |
subsections (10) and (11) of Section 11-74.3-3 and by other |
revenue designated or pledged by the municipality. A |
municipality may in the ordinance pledge, for any period of |
time up to and including the dissolution date, all or any part |
of the funds in and to be deposited in the Business District |
Tax Allocation Fund to the payment of business district |
project costs and obligations. Whenever a municipality pledges |
all of the funds to the credit of a business district tax |
allocation fund to secure obligations issued or to be issued |
to pay or reimburse business district project costs, the |
municipality may specifically provide that funds remaining to |
the credit of such business district tax allocation fund after |
the payment of such obligations shall be accounted for |
annually and shall be deemed to be "surplus" funds, and such |
"surplus" funds shall be expended by the municipality for any |
business district project cost as approved in the business |
|
district plan. Whenever a municipality pledges less than all |
of the monies to the credit of a business district tax |
allocation fund to secure obligations issued or to be issued |
to pay or reimburse business district project costs, the |
municipality shall provide that monies to the credit of the |
business district tax allocation fund and not subject to such |
pledge or otherwise encumbered or required for payment of |
contractual obligations for specific business district project |
costs shall be calculated annually and shall be deemed to be |
"surplus" funds, and such "surplus" funds shall be expended by |
the municipality for any business district project cost as |
approved in the business district plan. |
No obligation issued pursuant to this Law and secured by a |
pledge of all or any portion of any revenues received or to be |
received by the municipality from the imposition of taxes |
pursuant to subsection (10) of Section 11-74.3-3, shall be |
deemed to constitute an economic incentive agreement under |
Section 8-11-20, notwithstanding the fact that such pledge |
provides for the sharing, rebate, or payment of retailers' |
occupation taxes or service occupation taxes imposed pursuant |
to subsection (10) of Section 11-74.3-3 and received or to be |
received by the municipality from the development or |
redevelopment of properties in the business district. |
Without limiting the foregoing in this Section, the |
municipality may further secure obligations secured by the |
business district tax allocation fund with a pledge, for a |
|
period not greater than the term of the obligations and in any |
case not longer than the dissolution date, of any part or any |
combination of the following: (i) net revenues of all or part |
of any business district project; (ii) taxes levied or imposed |
by the municipality on any or all property in the |
municipality, including, specifically, taxes levied or imposed |
by the municipality in a special service area pursuant to the |
Special Service Area Tax Law; (iii) the full faith and credit |
of the municipality; (iv) a mortgage on part or all of the |
business district project; or (v) any other taxes or |
anticipated receipts that the municipality may lawfully |
pledge. |
Such obligations may be issued in one or more series, bear |
such date or dates, become due at such time or times as therein |
provided, but in any case not later than (i) 20 years after the |
date of issue or (ii) the dissolution date, whichever is |
earlier, bear interest payable at such intervals and at such |
rate or rates as set forth therein, except as may be limited by |
applicable law, which rate or rates may be fixed or variable, |
be in such denominations, be in such form, either coupon, |
registered, or book-entry, carry such conversion, registration |
and exchange privileges, be subject to defeasance upon such |
terms, have such rank or priority, be executed in such manner, |
be payable in such medium or payment at such place or places |
within or without the State, make provision for a corporate |
trustee within or without the State with respect to such |
|
obligations, prescribe the rights, powers, and duties thereof |
to be exercised for the benefit of the municipality and the |
benefit of the owners of such obligations, provide for the |
holding in trust, investment, and use of moneys, funds, and |
accounts held under an ordinance, provide for assignment of |
and direct payment of the moneys to pay such obligations or to |
be deposited into such funds or accounts directly to such |
trustee, be subject to such terms of redemption with or |
without premium, and be sold at such price, all as the |
corporate authorities shall determine. No referendum approval |
of the electors shall be required as a condition to the |
issuance of obligations pursuant to this Law except as |
provided in this Section. |
In the event the municipality authorizes the issuance of |
obligations pursuant to the authority of this Law secured by |
the full faith and credit of the municipality, or pledges ad |
valorem taxes pursuant to this subsection, which obligations |
are other than obligations which may be issued under home rule |
powers provided by Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois |
Constitution or which ad valorem taxes are other than ad |
valorem taxes which may be pledged under home rule powers |
provided by Section 6 of Article VII of the Illinois |
Constitution or which are levied in a special service area |
pursuant to the Special Service Area Tax Law, the ordinance |
authorizing the issuance of those obligations or pledging |
those taxes shall be published within 10 days after the |
|
ordinance has been adopted, in a newspaper having a general |
circulation within the municipality. The publication of the |
ordinance shall be accompanied by a notice of (i) the specific |
number of voters required to sign a petition requesting the |
question of the issuance of the obligations or pledging such |
ad valorem taxes to be submitted to the electors; (ii) the time |
within which the petition must be filed; and (iii) the date of |
the prospective referendum. The municipal clerk shall provide |
a petition form to any individual requesting one. |
If no petition is filed with the municipal clerk, as |
hereinafter provided in this Section, within 21 days after the |
publication of the ordinance, the ordinance shall be in |
effect. However, if within that 21-day period a petition is |
filed with the municipal clerk, signed by electors numbering |
not less than 15% of the number of electors voting for the |
mayor or president at the last general municipal election, |
asking that the question of issuing obligations using full |
faith and credit of the municipality as security for the cost |
of paying or reimbursing business district project costs, or |
of pledging such ad valorem taxes for the payment of those |
obligations, or both, be submitted to the electors of the |
municipality, the municipality shall not be authorized to |
issue obligations of the municipality using the full faith and |
credit of the municipality as security or pledging such ad |
valorem taxes for the payment of those obligations, or both, |
until the proposition has been submitted to and approved by a |
|
majority of the voters voting on the proposition at a |
regularly scheduled election. The municipality shall certify |
the proposition to the proper election authorities for |
submission in accordance with the general election law. |
The ordinance authorizing the obligations may provide that |
the obligations shall contain a recital that they are issued |
pursuant to this Law, which recital shall be conclusive |
evidence of their validity and of the regularity of their |
issuance. |
In the event the municipality authorizes issuance of |
obligations pursuant to this Law secured by the full faith and |
credit of the municipality, the ordinance authorizing the |
obligations may provide for the levy and collection of a |
direct annual tax upon all taxable property within the |
municipality sufficient to pay the principal thereof and |
interest thereon as it matures, which levy may be in addition |
to and exclusive of the maximum of all other taxes authorized |
to be levied by the municipality, which levy, however, shall |
be abated to the extent that monies from other sources are |
available for payment of the obligations and the municipality |
certifies the amount of those monies available to the county |
clerk. |
A certified copy of the ordinance shall be filed with the |
county clerk of each county in which any portion of the |
municipality is situated, and shall constitute the authority |
for the extension and collection of the taxes to be deposited |
|
in the business district tax allocation fund. |
A municipality may also issue its obligations to refund, |
in whole or in part, obligations theretofore issued by the |
municipality under the authority of this Law, whether at or |
prior to maturity. However, the last maturity of the refunding |
obligations shall not be expressed to mature later than the |
dissolution date. |
In the event a municipality issues obligations under home |
rule powers or other legislative authority, the proceeds of |
which are pledged to pay or reimburse business district |
project costs, the municipality may, if it has followed the |
procedures in conformance with this Law, retire those |
obligations from funds in the business district tax allocation |
fund in amounts and in such manner as if those obligations had |
been issued pursuant to the provisions of this Law. |
No obligations issued pursuant to this Law shall be |
regarded as indebtedness of the municipality issuing those |
obligations or any other taxing district for the purpose of |
any limitation imposed by law. |
Obligations issued pursuant to this Law shall not be |
subject to the provisions of the Bond Authorization Act. |
(f) When business district project costs, including, |
without limitation, all obligations paying or reimbursing |
business district project costs have been paid, any surplus |
funds then remaining in the Business District Tax Allocation |
Fund shall be distributed to the municipal treasurer for |
|
deposit into the general corporate fund of the municipality. |
Upon payment of all business district project costs and |
retirement of all obligations paying or reimbursing business |
district project costs, but in no event more than 23 years |
after the date of adoption of the ordinance imposing taxes |
pursuant to subsection (10) or (11) of Section 11-74.3-3, the |
municipality shall adopt an ordinance immediately rescinding |
the taxes imposed pursuant to subsection (10) or (11) of |
Section 11-74.3-3. |

Section 75-40. The Civic Center Code is amended by |
changing Section 245-12 as follows: |
(70 ILCS 200/245-12) |
Sec. 245-12. Use and occupation taxes. |
(a) The Authority may adopt a resolution that authorizes a |
referendum on the question of whether the Authority shall be |
authorized to impose a retailers' occupation tax, a service |
occupation tax, and a use tax in one-quarter percent |
increments at a rate not to exceed 1%. The Authority shall |
certify the question to the proper election authorities who |
shall submit the question to the voters of the metropolitan |
area at the next regularly scheduled election in accordance |
with the general election law. The question shall be in |
|
substantially the following form: |
"Shall the Salem Civic Center Authority be authorized to |
impose a retailers' occupation tax, a service occupation |
tax, and a use tax at the rate of (rate) for the sole |
purpose of obtaining funds for the support, construction, |
maintenance, or financing of a facility of the Authority?" |
Votes shall be recorded as "yes" or "no". |
If a majority of all votes cast on the proposition are in |
favor of the proposition, the Authority is authorized to |
impose the tax. |
(b) The Authority shall impose the retailers' occupation |
tax upon all persons engaged in the business of selling |
tangible personal property at retail in the metropolitan area, |
at the rate approved by referendum, on the gross receipts from |
the sales made in the course of such business within the |
metropolitan area. Beginning December 1, 2019 and through |
December 31, 2020, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the Authority does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The Authority must |
comply with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Section, "airport-related purposes" |
has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State |
Finance Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not |
|
imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue |
use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the Authority. |
The tax imposed under this Section and all civil penalties |
that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be collected |
and enforced by the Department of Revenue. The Department has |
full power to administer and enforce this Section; to collect |
all taxes and penalties so collected in the manner provided in |
this Section; and to determine all rights to credit memoranda |
arising on account of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty |
hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance with, this |
Section, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
Section shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers and duties, (ii) be subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, |
exemptions, and definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the |
same modes of procedure as are prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, |
1a-1, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, 1n, 2, 2-5, 2-5.5, 2-10 |
(in respect to all provisions therein other than the State |
rate of tax), 2-12, 2-15 through 2-70, 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 (except as |
to the disposition of taxes and penalties collected and |
provisions related to quarter monthly payments, and except |
that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes paid on |
aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, |
5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, |
|
11a, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and |
Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully |
as if those provisions were set forth in this subsection. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under this subsection |
may reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability by |
separately stating the tax as an additional charge, which |
charge may be stated in combination, in a single amount, with |
State taxes that sellers are required to collect, in |
accordance with such bracket schedules as the Department may |
prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, |
as appropriate. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (b), a tax shall |
also be imposed at the same rate under subsections (c) and (d) |
of this Section. |
For the purpose of determining whether a tax authorized |
under this Section is applicable, a retail sale, by a producer |
of coal or other mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at retail |
at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois |
|
is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the Federal Constitution as a sale in |
interstate or foreign commerce. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by this State. |
(c) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a |
service occupation tax shall also be imposed at the same rate |
upon all persons engaged, in the metropolitan area, in the |
business of making sales of service, who, as an incident to |
making those sales of service, transfer tangible personal |
property within the metropolitan area as an incident to a sale |
of service. The tax imposed under this subsection and all |
civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof |
shall be collected and enforced by the Department of Revenue. |
Beginning December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, |
this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the |
tax revenue is expended for airport-related purposes. If the |
Authority does not have an airport-related purpose to which it |
dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel is |
excluded from the tax. The Authority must comply with the |
certification requirements for airport-related purposes under |
Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. Beginning |
|
January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of aviation |
fuel for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the Authority. |
The Department has full power to administer and enforce |
this paragraph; to collect all taxes and penalties due |
hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected in |
the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights |
to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, |
and compliance with this paragraph, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this paragraph shall (i) have the same |
rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, |
(ii) be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, |
limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 2 (except that the |
reference to State in the definition of supplier maintaining a |
place of business in this State shall mean the metropolitan |
area), 2a, 2b, 3 through 3-55 (in respect to all provisions |
therein other than the State rate of tax), 4 (except that the |
reference to the State shall be to the Authority), 5, 7, 8 |
(except that the jurisdiction to which the tax shall be a debt |
to the extent indicated in that Section 8 shall be the |
Authority), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the returned merchandise |
credit for this tax may not be taken against any State tax, and |
|
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 11, |
12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference |
to the State shall mean the Authority), 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and |
20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax that servicemen are |
authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, in |
accordance with such bracket schedules as the Department may |
prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, |
as appropriate. |
|
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize |
the Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(c-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(d) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a use |
tax shall also be imposed at the same rate upon the privilege |
of using, in the metropolitan area, any item of tangible |
personal property that is purchased outside the metropolitan |
area at retail from a retailer, and that is titled or |
registered at a location within the metropolitan area with an |
agency of this State's government. "Selling price" is defined |
as in the Use Tax Act. The tax shall be collected from persons |
whose Illinois address for titling or registration purposes is |
given as being in the metropolitan area. The tax shall be |
collected by the Department of Revenue for the Authority. The |
tax must be paid to the State, or an exemption determination |
must be obtained from the Department of Revenue, before the |
title or certificate of registration for the property may be |
|
issued. The tax or proof of exemption may be transmitted to the |
Department by way of the State agency with which, or the State |
officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be |
titled or registered if the Department and the State agency or |
State officer determine that this procedure will expedite the |
processing of applications for title or registration. |
The Department has full power to administer and enforce |
this paragraph; to collect all taxes, penalties and interest |
due hereunder; to dispose of taxes, penalties and interest so |
collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine |
all rights to credit memoranda or refunds arising on account |
of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty or interest |
hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance with, this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
paragraph shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, |
privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to |
the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, |
exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms, and (iii) |
employ the same modes of procedure as are prescribed in |
Sections 2 (except the definition of "retailer maintaining a |
place of business in this State"), 3, 3-5, 3-10, 3-45, 3-55, |
3-65, 3-70, 3-85, 3a, 4, 6, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction |
to which the tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in |
that Section 8 shall be the Authority), 9 (except provisions |
relating to quarter monthly payments), 10, 11, 12, 12a, 12b, |
13, 14, 15, 19, 20, 21, and 22 of the Use Tax Act and Section |
|
3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, that are not |
inconsistent with this paragraph, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the tax fund referenced under paragraph (g) |
of this Section. |
(e) A certificate of registration issued by the State |
Department of Revenue to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act |
shall permit the registrant to engage in a business that is |
taxed under the tax imposed under paragraphs (b), (c), or (d) |
of this Section and no additional registration shall be |
required. A certificate issued under the Use Tax Act or the |
Service Use Tax Act shall be applicable with regard to any tax |
imposed under paragraph (c) of this Section. |
(f) The results of any election authorizing a proposition |
to impose a tax under this Section or effecting a change in the |
rate of tax shall be certified by the proper election |
authorities and filed with the Illinois Department on or |
before the first day of April. In addition, an ordinance |
imposing, discontinuing, or effecting a change in the rate of |
|
tax under this Section shall be adopted and a certified copy |
thereof filed with the Department on or before the first day of |
April. After proper receipt of such certifications, the |
Department shall proceed to administer and enforce this |
Section as of the first day of July next following such |
adoption and filing. |
(g) Except as otherwise provided, the Department of |
Revenue shall, upon collecting any taxes and penalties as |
provided in this Section, pay the taxes and penalties over to |
the State Treasurer as trustee for the Authority. The taxes |
and penalties shall be held in a trust fund outside the State |
Treasury. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, |
shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Section for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. On or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department of Revenue shall prepare and certify to the |
Comptroller of the State of Illinois the amount to be paid to |
the Authority, which shall be the balance in the fund, less any |
amount determined by the Department to be necessary for the |
payment of refunds and not including taxes and penalties |
collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. |
|
Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of the |
certification of the amount to be paid to the Authority, the |
Comptroller shall cause an order to be drawn for payment for |
the amount in accordance with the directions contained in the |
certification. Amounts received from the tax imposed under |
this Section shall be used only for the support, construction, |
maintenance, or financing of a facility of the Authority. |
(h) When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement |
to the Authority under this Section, the Department shall |
increase or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary to |
offset any miscalculation of previous disbursements. The |
offset amount shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within |
the previous 6 months from the time a miscalculation is |
discovered. |
(i) This Section may be cited as the Salem Civic Center Use |
and Occupation Tax Law. |

Section 75-45. The Flood Prevention District Act is |
amended by changing Section 25 as follows: |
(70 ILCS 750/25) |
Sec. 25. Flood prevention retailers' and service |
occupation taxes. |
(a) If the Board of Commissioners of a flood prevention |
district determines that an emergency situation exists |
|
regarding levee repair or flood prevention, and upon an |
ordinance confirming the determination adopted by the |
affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the county |
board of the county in which the district is situated, the |
county may impose a flood prevention retailers' occupation tax |
upon all persons engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail within the territory of the |
district to provide revenue to pay the costs of providing |
emergency levee repair and flood prevention and to secure the |
payment of bonds, notes, and other evidences of indebtedness |
issued under this Act for a period not to exceed 25 years or as |
required to repay the bonds, notes, and other evidences of |
indebtedness issued under this Act. The tax rate shall be |
0.25% of the gross receipts from all taxable sales made in the |
course of that business. Beginning December 1, 2019 and |
through December 31, 2020, this tax is not imposed on sales of |
aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for |
airport-related purposes. If the District does not have an |
airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel |
tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The |
County must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. The tax imposed under this Section and all |
civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof |
shall be collected and enforced by the State Department of |
Revenue. The Department shall have full power to administer |
|
and enforce this Section; to collect all taxes and penalties |
so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to |
determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account of |
the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. |
For purposes of this Act, "airport-related purposes" has |
the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance |
Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the District. |
In the administration of and compliance with this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
subsection (i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) are subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) shall employ the same modes of |
procedure as are set forth in Sections 1 through 1o, 2 through |
2-70 (in respect to all provisions contained in those Sections |
other than the State rate of tax), 2a through 2h, 3 (except as |
to the disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and |
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, |
5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, |
8, 9, 10, 11, 11a, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act and all provisions of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act |
|
as if those provisions were set forth in this subsection. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under this Section may |
reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability |
hereunder by separately stating the tax as an additional |
charge, which charge may be stated in combination in a single |
amount with State taxes that sellers are required to collect |
under the Use Tax Act, under any bracket schedules the |
Department may prescribe. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (a), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsection (b) of this Section. |
(b) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (a), a flood |
prevention service occupation tax shall also be imposed upon |
all persons engaged within the territory of the district in |
the business of making sales of service, who, as an incident to |
making the sales of service, transfer tangible personal |
property, either in the form of tangible personal property or |
in the form of real estate as an incident to a sale of service |
to provide revenue to pay the costs of providing emergency |
levee repair and flood prevention and to secure the payment of |
bonds, notes, and other evidences of indebtedness issued under |
this Act for a period not to exceed 25 years or as required to |
repay the bonds, notes, and other evidences of indebtedness. |
The tax rate shall be 0.25% of the selling price of all |
tangible personal property transferred. Beginning December 1, |
2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is expended for |
|
airport-related purposes. If the District does not have an |
airport-related purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel |
tax revenue, then aviation fuel is excluded from the tax. The |
County must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Act, "airport-related |
purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the |
State Finance Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue |
use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the District. |
The tax imposed under this subsection and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The |
Department shall have full power to administer and enforce |
this subsection; to collect all taxes and penalties due |
hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties collected in the |
manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights to |
credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous payment |
of tax or penalty hereunder. |
In the administration of and compliance with this |
subsection, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
subsection shall (i) have the same rights, remedies, |
privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to |
the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
|
procedure as are set forth in Sections 2 (except that the |
reference to State in the definition of supplier maintaining a |
place of business in this State means the district), 2a |
through 2d, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions |
contained in those Sections other than the State rate of tax), |
4 (except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
district), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the |
tax is a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 is the |
district), 9 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to |
Section 2b of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except |
that any reference to the State means the district), Section |
15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act |
and all provisions of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as |
fully as if those provisions were set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the |
tax as an additional charge, that charge may be stated in |
combination in a single amount with State tax that servicemen |
are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, under |
any bracket schedules the Department may prescribe. |
(c) The taxes imposed in subsections (a) and (b) may not be |
|
imposed on personal property titled or registered with an |
agency of the State or on personal property taxed at the 1% |
rate under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and the Service |
Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). |
(c-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(d) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to |
authorize the district to impose a tax upon the privilege of |
engaging in any business that under the Constitution of the |
United States may not be made the subject of taxation by the |
State. |
(e) The certificate of registration that is issued by the |
Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act or a serviceman under the Service Occupation Tax Act |
permits the retailer or serviceman to engage in a business |
that is taxable without registering separately with the |
Department under an ordinance or resolution under this |
Section. |
(f) Except as otherwise provided, the Department shall |
|
immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as |
trustee, all taxes and penalties collected under this Section |
to be deposited into the Flood Prevention Occupation Tax Fund, |
which shall be an unappropriated trust fund held outside the |
State treasury. Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel |
sold on or after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020, shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the |
State Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the |
Local Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall |
only pay moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund |
under this Act for so long as the revenue use requirements of |
49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
On or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to the counties from |
which retailers or servicemen have paid taxes or penalties to |
the Department during the second preceding calendar month. The |
amount to be paid to each county is equal to the amount (not |
including credit memoranda and not including taxes and |
penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December |
1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020) collected from the |
county under this Section during the second preceding calendar |
month by the Department, (i) less 2% of that amount (except the |
amount collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, |
2019 and through December 31, 2020), which shall be deposited |
|
into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund and shall be |
used by the Department in administering and enforcing the |
provisions of this Section on behalf of the county, (ii) plus |
an amount that the Department determines is necessary to |
offset any amounts that were erroneously paid to a different |
taxing body; (iii) less an amount equal to the amount of |
refunds made during the second preceding calendar month by the |
Department on behalf of the county; and (iv) less any amount |
that the Department determines is necessary to offset any |
amounts that were payable to a different taxing body but were |
erroneously paid to the county. When certifying the amount of |
a monthly disbursement to a county under this Section, the |
Department shall increase or decrease the amounts by an amount |
necessary to offset any miscalculation of previous |
disbursements within the previous 6 months from the time a |
miscalculation is discovered. |
Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller from the |
Department of the disbursement certification to the counties |
provided for in this Section, the Comptroller shall cause the |
orders to be drawn for the respective amounts in accordance |
with directions contained in the certification. |
If the Department determines that a refund should be made |
under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a credit |
memorandum, then the Department shall notify the Comptroller, |
who shall cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified |
and to the person named in the notification from the |
|
Department. The refund shall be paid by the Treasurer out of |
the Flood Prevention Occupation Tax Fund or the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
(g) If a county imposes a tax under this Section, then the |
county board shall, by ordinance, discontinue the tax upon the |
payment of all indebtedness of the flood prevention district. |
The tax shall not be discontinued until all indebtedness of |
the District has been paid. |
(h) Any ordinance imposing the tax under this Section, or |
any ordinance that discontinues the tax, must be certified by |
the county clerk and filed with the Illinois Department of |
Revenue either (i) on or before the first day of April, |
whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer and |
enforce the tax or change in the rate as of the first day of |
July next following the filing; or (ii) on or before the first |
day of October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce the tax or change in the rate as of the |
first day of January next following the filing. |
(j) County Flood Prevention Occupation Tax Fund. All |
proceeds received by a county from a tax distribution under |
this Section must be maintained in a special fund known as the |
[name of county] flood prevention occupation tax fund. The |
county shall, at the direction of the flood prevention |
district, use moneys in the fund to pay the costs of providing |
emergency levee repair and flood prevention and to pay bonds, |
notes, and other evidences of indebtedness issued under this |
|
Act. |
(k) This Section may be cited as the Flood Prevention |
Occupation Tax Law. |

Section 75-50. The Metro-East Park and Recreation District |
Act is amended by changing Section 30 as follows: |
(70 ILCS 1605/30) |
Sec. 30. Taxes. |
(a) The board shall impose a tax upon all persons engaged |
in the business of selling tangible personal property, other |
than personal property titled or registered with an agency of |
this State's government, at retail in the District on the |
gross receipts from the sales made in the course of business. |
This tax shall be imposed only at the rate of one-tenth of one |
per cent. |
This additional tax may not be imposed on tangible |
personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly). Beginning |
December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, this tax is not |
imposed on sales of aviation fuel unless the tax revenue is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If the District does |
not have an airport-related purpose to which it dedicates |
|
aviation fuel tax revenue, then aviation fuel shall be |
excluded from tax. The board must comply with the |
certification requirements for airport-related purposes under |
Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For |
purposes of this Act, "airport-related purposes" has the |
meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. |
Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on sales of |
aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. The tax imposed by the Board under this Section and |
all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident of the |
tax shall be collected and enforced by the Department of |
Revenue. The certificate of registration that is issued by the |
Department to a retailer under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act shall permit the retailer to engage in a business that is |
taxable without registering separately with the Department |
under an ordinance or resolution under this Section. The |
Department has full power to administer and enforce this |
Section, to collect all taxes and penalties due under this |
Section, to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected in the |
manner provided in this Section, and to determine all rights |
to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
payment of a tax or penalty under this Section. In the |
administration of and compliance with this Section, the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
(i) have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
|
powers, and duties, (ii) be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties, and definitions of |
terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of procedure as are |
prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 1k, 1m, |
1n, 2, 2-5, 2-5.5, 2-10 (in respect to all provisions |
contained in those Sections other than the State rate of tax), |
2-12, 2-15 through 2-70, 2a, 2b, 2c, 3 (except provisions |
relating to transaction returns and quarter monthly payments, |
and except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for |
taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, |
5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, |
6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 11a, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act and the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act as |
if those provisions were set forth in this Section. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their |
sellers' tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax which sellers are required |
to collect under the Use Tax Act, pursuant to such bracketed |
schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
|
amount specified and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the State Metro-East Park and Recreation |
District Fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as |
appropriate. |
(b) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (a), a |
service occupation tax shall also be imposed at the same rate |
upon all persons engaged, in the District, in the business of |
making sales of service, who, as an incident to making those |
sales of service, transfer tangible personal property within |
the District as an incident to a sale of service. This tax may |
not be imposed on tangible personal property taxed at the 1% |
rate under the Service Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate |
imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly). Beginning December 1, 2019 and through December 31, |
2020, this tax may not be imposed on sales of aviation fuel |
unless the tax revenue is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If the District does not have an airport-related |
purpose to which it dedicates aviation fuel tax revenue, then |
aviation fuel shall be excluded from tax. The board must |
comply with the certification requirements for airport-related |
purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act. For purposes of this Act, "airport-related purposes" has |
the meaning ascribed in Section 6z-20.2 of the State Finance |
Act. Beginning January 1, 2021, this tax is not imposed on |
sales of aviation fuel for so long as the revenue use |
|
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the District. The tax imposed under this subsection |
and all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident |
thereof shall be collected and enforced by the Department of |
Revenue. The Department has full power to administer and |
enforce this subsection; to collect all taxes and penalties |
due hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected |
in the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all |
rights to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, |
and compliance with this subsection, the Department and |
persons who are subject to this paragraph shall (i) have the |
same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and |
duties, (ii) be subject to the same conditions, restrictions, |
limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and |
definitions of terms, and (iii) employ the same modes of |
procedure as are prescribed in Sections 2 (except that the |
reference to State in the definition of supplier maintaining a |
place of business in this State shall mean the District), 2a, |
2b, 2c, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all provisions therein |
other than the State rate of tax), 4 (except that the reference |
to the State shall be to the District), 5, 7, 8 (except that |
the jurisdiction to which the tax shall be a debt to the extent |
indicated in that Section 8 shall be the District), 9 (except |
as to the disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and |
except that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes |
|
paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 10, |
11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any reference |
to the State shall mean the District), Sections 15, 16, 17, 18, |
19 and 20 of the Service Occupation Tax Act and the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this subsection may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability by separately stating the tax as an |
additional charge, which charge may be stated in combination, |
in a single amount, with State tax that servicemen are |
authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, in |
accordance with such bracket schedules as the Department may |
prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this subsection to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the State Metro-East Park and Recreation |
District Fund or the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as |
appropriate. |
Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to authorize |
|
the board to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in any |
business which under the Constitution of the United States may |
not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(b-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under this Section, or if, after January 1, |
2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax under this |
Section, then that tax applies to leases of tangible personal |
property in effect, entered into, or renewed on or after that |
date in the same manner as the tax under this Section and in |
accordance with the changes made by this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly. |
(c) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the |
Department shall immediately pay over to the State Treasurer, |
ex officio, as trustee, all taxes and penalties collected |
under this Section to be deposited into the State Metro-East |
Park and Recreation District Fund, which shall be an |
unappropriated trust fund held outside of the State treasury. |
Taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or |
after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020, shall be |
immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Act for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
|
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. The Department shall make |
this certification only if the Metro East Park and Recreation |
District imposes a tax on real property as provided in the |
definition of "local sales taxes" under the Innovation |
Development and Economy Act. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money pursuant to Section 35 of |
this Act to the District from which retailers have paid taxes |
or penalties to the Department during the second preceding |
calendar month. The amount to be paid to the District shall be |
the amount (not including credit memoranda and not including |
taxes and penalties collected on aviation fuel sold on or |
after December 1, 2019 and through December 31, 2020) |
collected under this Section during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department plus an amount the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and not including |
|
(i) an amount equal to the amount of refunds made during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department on behalf of |
the District, (ii) any amount that the Department determines |
is necessary to offset any amounts that were payable to a |
different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the |
District, (iii) any amounts that are transferred to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund, and (iv) 1.5% of the remainder, which the |
Department shall transfer into the Tax Compliance and |
Administration Fund. The Department, at the time of each |
monthly disbursement to the District, shall prepare and |
certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be transferred |
into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund under this |
subsection. Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of |
the disbursement certification to the District and the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund provided for in this |
Section to be given to the Comptroller by the Department, the |
Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn for the |
respective amounts in accordance with directions contained in |
the certification. |
(d) For the purpose of determining whether a tax |
authorized under this Section is applicable, a retail sale by |
a producer of coal or another mineral mined in Illinois is a |
sale at retail at the place where the coal or other mineral |
mined in Illinois is extracted from the earth. This paragraph |
does not apply to coal or another mineral when it is delivered |
or shipped by the seller to the purchaser at a point outside |
|
Illinois so that the sale is exempt under the United States |
Constitution as a sale in interstate or foreign commerce. |
(e) Nothing in this Section shall be construed to |
authorize the board to impose a tax upon the privilege of |
engaging in any business that under the Constitution of the |
United States may not be made the subject of taxation by this |
State. |
(f) An ordinance imposing a tax under this Section or an |
ordinance extending the imposition of a tax to an additional |
county or counties shall be certified by the board and filed |
with the Department of Revenue either (i) on or before the |
first day of April, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce the tax as of the first day of July next |
following the filing; or (ii) on or before the first day of |
October, whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer |
and enforce the tax as of the first day of January next |
following the filing. |
(g) When certifying the amount of a monthly disbursement |
to the District under this Section, the Department shall |
increase or decrease the amounts by an amount necessary to |
offset any misallocation of previous disbursements. The offset |
amount shall be the amount erroneously disbursed within the |
previous 6 months from the time a misallocation is discovered. |

Section 75-55. The Local Mass Transit District Act is |
amended by changing Section 5.01 as follows: |
(70 ILCS 3610/5.01) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 355.01) |
Sec. 5.01. Metro East Mass Transit District; use and |
occupation taxes. |
(a) The Board of Trustees of any Metro East Mass Transit |
District may, by ordinance adopted with the concurrence of |
two-thirds of the then trustees, impose throughout the |
District any or all of the taxes and fees provided in this |
Section. Except as otherwise provided, all taxes and fees |
imposed under this Section shall be used only for public mass |
transportation systems, and the amount used to provide mass |
transit service to unserved areas of the District shall be in |
the same proportion to the total proceeds as the number of |
persons residing in the unserved areas is to the total |
population of the District. Except as otherwise provided in |
this Act, taxes imposed under this Section and civil penalties |
imposed incident thereto shall be collected and enforced by |
the State Department of Revenue. The Department shall have the |
power to administer and enforce the taxes and to determine all |
rights for refunds for erroneous payments of the taxes. |
(b) The Board may impose a Metro East Mass Transit |
District Retailers' Occupation Tax upon all persons engaged in |
the business of selling tangible personal property at retail |
in the district at a rate of 1/4 of 1%, or as authorized under |
|
subsection (d-5) of this Section, of the gross receipts from |
the sales made in the course of such business within the |
district, except that the rate of tax imposed under this |
Section on sales of aviation fuel on or after December 1, 2019 |
shall be 0.25% in Madison County unless the Metro-East Mass |
Transit District in Madison County has an "airport-related |
purpose" and any additional amount authorized under subsection |
(d-5) is expended for airport-related purposes. If there is no |
airport-related purpose to which aviation fuel tax revenue is |
dedicated, then aviation fuel is excluded from any additional |
amount authorized under subsection (d-5). The rate in St. |
Clair County shall be 0.25% unless the Metro-East Mass Transit |
District in St. Clair County has an "airport-related purpose" |
and the additional 0.50% of the 0.75% tax on aviation fuel |
imposed in that County is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If there is no airport-related purpose to which |
aviation fuel tax revenue is dedicated, then aviation fuel is |
excluded from the additional 0.50% of the 0.75% tax. |
The Board must comply with the certification requirements |
for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
|
The tax imposed under this Section and all civil penalties |
that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be collected |
and enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The |
Department shall have full power to administer and enforce |
this Section; to collect all taxes and penalties so collected |
in the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all |
rights to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, |
and compliance with, this Section, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this Section shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions and definitions of terms and |
employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65 |
(in respect to all provisions therein other than the State |
rate of tax), 2c, 3 (except as to the disposition of taxes and |
penalties collected, and except that the retailer's discount |
is not allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject |
to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5c, 5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, |
5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform |
Penalty and Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were |
set forth herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the Section may |
|
reimburse themselves for their seller's tax liability |
hereunder by separately stating the tax as an additional |
charge, which charge may be stated in combination, in a single |
amount, with State taxes that sellers are required to collect |
under the Use Tax Act, in accordance with such bracket |
schedules as the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Metro East Mass Transit District tax fund |
established under paragraph (h) of this Section or the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (b), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsections (c) and (d) of this Section. |
For the purpose of determining whether a tax authorized |
under this Section is applicable, a retail sale, by a producer |
of coal or other mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at retail |
at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois |
is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the Federal Constitution as a sale in |
interstate or foreign commerce. |
|
No tax shall be imposed or collected under this subsection |
on the sale of a motor vehicle in this State to a resident of |
another state if that motor vehicle will not be titled in this |
State. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the Metro East Mass Transit District to impose a tax upon the |
privilege of engaging in any business which under the |
Constitution of the United States may not be made the subject |
of taxation by this State. |
(c) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a Metro |
East Mass Transit District Service Occupation Tax shall also |
be imposed upon all persons engaged, in the district, in the |
business of making sales of service, who, as an incident to |
making those sales of service, transfer tangible personal |
property within the District, either in the form of tangible |
personal property or in the form of real estate as an incident |
to a sale of service. The tax rate shall be 1/4%, or as |
authorized under subsection (d-5) of this Section, of the |
selling price of tangible personal property so transferred |
within the district, except that the rate of tax imposed in |
these Counties under this Section on sales of aviation fuel on |
or after December 1, 2019 shall be 0.25% in Madison County |
unless the Metro-East Mass Transit District in Madison County |
has an "airport-related purpose" and any additional amount |
authorized under subsection (d-5) is expended for |
airport-related purposes. If there is no airport-related |
|
purpose to which aviation fuel tax revenue is dedicated, then |
aviation fuel is excluded from any additional amount |
authorized under subsection (d-5). The rate in St. Clair |
County shall be 0.25% unless the Metro-East Mass Transit |
District in St. Clair County has an "airport-related purpose" |
and the additional 0.50% of the 0.75% tax on aviation fuel is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If there is no |
airport-related purpose to which aviation fuel tax revenue is |
dedicated, then aviation fuel is excluded from the additional |
0.50% of the 0.75% tax. |
The Board must comply with the certification requirements |
for airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
The tax imposed under this paragraph and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The |
Department shall have full power to administer and enforce |
this paragraph; to collect all taxes and penalties due |
hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties so collected in |
the manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights |
to credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous |
|
payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration of, |
and compliance with this paragraph, the Department and persons |
who are subject to this paragraph shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions and definitions of terms and |
employ the same modes of procedure as are prescribed in |
Sections 1a-1, 2 (except that the reference to State in the |
definition of supplier maintaining a place of business in this |
State shall mean the Authority), 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in |
respect to all provisions therein other than the State rate of |
tax), 4 (except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
Authority), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the |
tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 |
shall be the District), 9 (except as to the disposition of |
taxes and penalties collected, and except that the returned |
merchandise credit for this tax may not be taken against any |
State tax, and except that the retailer's discount is not |
allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any |
reference to the State shall mean the District), the first |
paragraph of Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 of the Service |
Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and |
Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were set forth |
|
herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this paragraph may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the |
tax as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination, in a single amount, with State tax that |
servicemen are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax |
Act, in accordance with such bracket schedules as the |
Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Metro East Mass Transit District tax fund |
established under paragraph (h) of this Section or the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize |
the District to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business which under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(d) If a tax has been imposed under subsection (b), a Metro |
East Mass Transit District Use Tax shall also be imposed upon |
the privilege of using, in the district, any item of tangible |
personal property that is purchased outside the district at |
|
retail from a retailer, and that is titled or registered with |
an agency of this State's government, at a rate of 1/4%, or as |
authorized under subsection (d-5) of this Section, of the |
selling price of the tangible personal property within the |
District, as "selling price" is defined in the Use Tax Act. The |
tax shall be collected from persons whose Illinois address for |
titling or registration purposes is given as being in the |
District. The tax shall be collected by the Department of |
Revenue for the Metro East Mass Transit District. The tax must |
be paid to the State, or an exemption determination must be |
obtained from the Department of Revenue, before the title or |
certificate of registration for the property may be issued. |
The tax or proof of exemption may be transmitted to the |
Department by way of the State agency with which, or the State |
officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be |
titled or registered if the Department and the State agency or |
State officer determine that this procedure will expedite the |
processing of applications for title or registration. |
The Department shall have full power to administer and |
enforce this paragraph; to collect all taxes, penalties and |
interest due hereunder; to dispose of taxes, penalties and |
interest so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda or refunds arising |
on account of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty or |
interest hereunder. In the administration of, and compliance |
with, this paragraph, the Department and persons who are |
|
subject to this paragraph shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers and duties, and be |
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions and definitions of terms and |
employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 2 (except the definition of "retailer maintaining a |
place of business in this State"), 3 through 3-80 (except |
provisions pertaining to the State rate of tax, and except |
provisions concerning collection or refunding of the tax by |
retailers), 4, 11, 12, 12a, 14, 15, 19 (except the portions |
pertaining to claims by retailers and except the last |
paragraph concerning refunds), 20, 21 and 22 of the Use Tax Act |
and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, that |
are not inconsistent with this paragraph, as fully as if those |
provisions were set forth herein. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Metro East Mass Transit District tax fund |
established under paragraph (h) of this Section. |
(d-1) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under subsections (b), (c), and (d) or if, |
after January 1, 2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax |
|
under subsections (b), (c), and (d), then that tax applies to |
leases of tangible personal property in effect, entered into, |
or renewed on or after that date in the same manner as the tax |
under this Section and in accordance with the changes made by |
this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly. |
(d-5) (A) The county board of any county participating in |
the Metro East Mass Transit District may authorize, by |
ordinance, a referendum on the question of whether the tax |
rates for the Metro East Mass Transit District Retailers' |
Occupation Tax, the Metro East Mass Transit District Service |
Occupation Tax, and the Metro East Mass Transit District Use |
Tax for the District should be increased from 0.25% to 0.75%. |
Upon adopting the ordinance, the county board shall certify |
the proposition to the proper election officials who shall |
submit the proposition to the voters of the District at the |
next election, in accordance with the general election law. |
The proposition shall be in substantially the following |
form: |
Shall the tax rates for the Metro East Mass Transit |
District Retailers' Occupation Tax, the Metro East Mass |
Transit District Service Occupation Tax, and the Metro |
East Mass Transit District Use Tax be increased from 0.25% |
to 0.75%? |
(B) Two thousand five hundred electors of any Metro East |
Mass Transit District may petition the Chief Judge of the |
Circuit Court, or any judge of that Circuit designated by the |
|
Chief Judge, in which that District is located to cause to be |
submitted to a vote of the electors the question whether the |
tax rates for the Metro East Mass Transit District Retailers' |
Occupation Tax, the Metro East Mass Transit District Service |
Occupation Tax, and the Metro East Mass Transit District Use |
Tax for the District should be increased from 0.25% to 0.75%. |
Upon submission of such petition the court shall set a |
date not less than 10 nor more than 30 days thereafter for a |
hearing on the sufficiency thereof. Notice of the filing of |
such petition and of such date shall be given in writing to the |
District and the County Clerk at least 7 days before the date |

following proposition: |
Shall the tax rates for the Metro East Mass Transit |
District Retailers' Occupation Tax, the Metro East Mass |
Transit District Service Occupation Tax, and the Metro |

|
to 0.75%? |
Name Address, with Street and Number. |

...................... | ........................................ | |
...................... | ........................................ |
|
(C) The votes shall be recorded as "YES" or "NO". If a |
majority of all votes cast on the proposition are for the |
increase in the tax rates, the Metro East Mass Transit |
District shall begin imposing the increased rates in the |
District, and the Department of Revenue shall begin collecting |
the increased amounts, as provided under this Section. An |
ordinance imposing or discontinuing a tax hereunder or |
effecting a change in the rate thereof shall be adopted and a |
certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or before |
the first day of October, whereupon the Department shall |
proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the first |
day of January next following the adoption and filing, or on or |
before the first day of April, whereupon the Department shall |
proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the first |
day of July next following the adoption and filing. |
(D) If the voters have approved a referendum under this |
subsection, before November 1, 1994, to increase the tax rate |
under this subsection, the Metro East Mass Transit District |
Board of Trustees may adopt by a majority vote an ordinance at |
any time before January 1, 1995 that excludes from the rate |
increase tangible personal property that is titled or |
registered with an agency of this State's government. The |
|
ordinance excluding titled or registered tangible personal |
property from the rate increase must be filed with the |
Department at least 15 days before its effective date. At any |
time after adopting an ordinance excluding from the rate |
increase tangible personal property that is titled or |
registered with an agency of this State's government, the |
Metro East Mass Transit District Board of Trustees may adopt |
an ordinance applying the rate increase to that tangible |
personal property. The ordinance shall be adopted, and a |
certified copy of that ordinance shall be filed with the |
Department, on or before October 1, whereupon the Department |
shall proceed to administer and enforce the rate increase |
against tangible personal property titled or registered with |
an agency of this State's government as of the following |
January 1. After December 31, 1995, any reimposed rate |
increase in effect under this subsection shall no longer apply |
to tangible personal property titled or registered with an |
agency of this State's government. Beginning January 1, 1996, |
the Board of Trustees of any Metro East Mass Transit District |
may never reimpose a previously excluded tax rate increase on |
tangible personal property titled or registered with an agency |
of this State's government. After July 1, 2004, if the voters |
have approved a referendum under this subsection to increase |
the tax rate under this subsection, the Metro East Mass |
Transit District Board of Trustees may adopt by a majority |
vote an ordinance that excludes from the rate increase |
|
tangible personal property that is titled or registered with |
an agency of this State's government. The ordinance excluding |
titled or registered tangible personal property from the rate |
increase shall be adopted, and a certified copy of that |
ordinance shall be filed with the Department on or before |
October 1, whereupon the Department shall administer and |
enforce this exclusion from the rate increase as of the |
following January 1, or on or before April 1, whereupon the |
Department shall administer and enforce this exclusion from |
the rate increase as of the following July 1. The Board of |
Trustees of any Metro East Mass Transit District may never |
reimpose a previously excluded tax rate increase on tangible |
personal property titled or registered with an agency of this |
State's government. |
(d-6) If the Board of Trustees of any Metro East Mass |
Transit District has imposed a rate increase under subsection |
(d-5) and filed an ordinance with the Department of Revenue |
excluding titled property from the higher rate, then that |
Board may, by ordinance adopted with the concurrence of |
two-thirds of the then trustees, impose throughout the |
District a fee. The fee on the excluded property shall not |
exceed $20 per retail transaction or an amount equal to the |
amount of tax excluded, whichever is less, on tangible |
personal property that is titled or registered with an agency |
of this State's government. Beginning July 1, 2004, the fee |
shall apply only to titled property that is subject to either |
|
the Metro East Mass Transit District Retailers' Occupation Tax |
or the Metro East Mass Transit District Service Occupation |
Tax. No fee shall be imposed or collected under this |
subsection on the sale of a motor vehicle in this State to a |
resident of another state if that motor vehicle will not be |
titled in this State. |
(d-7) Until June 30, 2004, if a fee has been imposed under |
subsection (d-6), a fee shall also be imposed upon the |
privilege of using, in the district, any item of tangible |
personal property that is titled or registered with any agency |
of this State's government, in an amount equal to the amount of |
the fee imposed under subsection (d-6). |
(d-7.1) Beginning July 1, 2004, any fee imposed by the |
Board of Trustees of any Metro East Mass Transit District |
under subsection (d-6) and all civil penalties that may be |
assessed as an incident of the fees shall be collected and |
enforced by the State Department of Revenue. Reference to |
"taxes" in this Section shall be construed to apply to the |
administration, payment, and remittance of all fees under this |
Section. For purposes of any fee imposed under subsection |
(d-6), 4% of the fee, penalty, and interest received by the |
Department in the first 12 months that the fee is collected and |
enforced by the Department and 2% of the fee, penalty, and |
interest following the first 12 months (except the amount |
collected on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019) |
shall be deposited into the Tax Compliance and Administration |
|
Fund and shall be used by the Department, subject to |
appropriation, to cover the costs of the Department. No |
retailers' discount shall apply to any fee imposed under |
subsection (d-6). |
(d-8) No item of titled property shall be subject to both |
the higher rate approved by referendum, as authorized under |
subsection (d-5), and any fee imposed under subsection (d-6) |
or (d-7). |
(d-9) (Blank). |
(d-10) (Blank). |
(e) A certificate of registration issued by the State |
Department of Revenue to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act |
shall permit the registrant to engage in a business that is |
taxed under the tax imposed under paragraphs (b), (c) or (d) of |
this Section and no additional registration shall be required |
under the tax. A certificate issued under the Use Tax Act or |
the Service Use Tax Act shall be applicable with regard to any |
tax imposed under paragraph (c) of this Section. |
(f) (Blank). |
(g) Any ordinance imposing or discontinuing any tax under |
this Section shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before June 1, whereupon the |
Department of Revenue shall proceed to administer and enforce |
this Section on behalf of the Metro East Mass Transit District |
as of September 1 next following such adoption and filing. |
|
Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance or resolution imposing |
or discontinuing the tax hereunder shall be adopted and a |
certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or before |
the first day of July, whereupon the Department shall proceed |
to administer and enforce this Section as of the first day of |
October next following such adoption and filing. Beginning |
January 1, 1993, except as provided in subsection (d-5) of |
this Section, an ordinance or resolution imposing or |
discontinuing the tax hereunder shall be adopted and a |
certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or before |
the first day of October, whereupon the Department shall |
proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the first |
day of January next following such adoption and filing, or, |
beginning January 1, 2004, on or before the first day of April, |
whereupon the Department shall proceed to administer and |
enforce this Section as of the first day of July next following |
the adoption and filing. |
(h) Except as provided in subsection (d-7.1), the State |
Department of Revenue shall, upon collecting any taxes as |
provided in this Section, pay the taxes over to the State |
Treasurer as trustee for the District. The taxes shall be held |
in a trust fund outside the State Treasury. If an |
airport-related purpose has been certified, taxes and |
penalties collected in St. Clair County on aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019 from the 0.50% of the 0.75% rate |
shall be immediately paid over by the Department to the State |
|
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, for deposit into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund. The Department shall only pay |
moneys into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund under |
this Act for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
District. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. The Department shall make |
this certification only if the local mass transit district |
imposes a tax on real property as provided in the definition of |
"local sales taxes" under the Innovation Development and |
Economy Act. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the State |
Department of Revenue shall prepare and certify to the |
Comptroller of the State of Illinois the amount to be paid to |
the District, which shall be the amount (not including credit |
memoranda and not including taxes and penalties collected on |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019 that are |
deposited into the Local Government Aviation Trust Fund) |
|
collected under this Section during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department plus an amount the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and not including |
any amount equal to the amount of refunds made during the |
second preceding calendar month by the Department on behalf of |
the District, and not including any amount that the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts that were |
payable to a different taxing body but were erroneously paid |
to the District, and less any amounts that are transferred to |
the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, less 1.5% of the remainder, which |
the Department shall transfer into the Tax Compliance and |
Administration Fund. The Department, at the time of each |
monthly disbursement to the District, shall prepare and |
certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be transferred |
into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund under this |
subsection. Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller of |
the certification of the amount to be paid to the District and |
the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund, the Comptroller |
shall cause an order to be drawn for payment for the amount in |
accordance with the direction in the certification. |

Section 75-60. The Regional Transportation Authority Act |
is amended by changing Section 4.03 as follows: |
|
(70 ILCS 3615/4.03) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 704.03) |
Sec. 4.03. Taxes. |
(a) In order to carry out any of the powers or purposes of |
the Authority, the Board may by ordinance adopted with the |
concurrence of 12 of the then Directors, impose throughout the |
metropolitan region any or all of the taxes provided in this |
Section. Except as otherwise provided in this Act, taxes |
imposed under this Section and civil penalties imposed |
incident thereto shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The Department shall have the power to |
administer and enforce the taxes and to determine all rights |
for refunds for erroneous payments of the taxes. Nothing in |
Public Act 95-708 is intended to invalidate any taxes |
currently imposed by the Authority. The increased vote |
requirements to impose a tax shall only apply to actions taken |
after January 1, 2008 (the effective date of Public Act |
95-708). |
(b) The Board may impose a public transportation tax upon |
all persons engaged in the metropolitan region in the business |
of selling at retail motor fuel for operation of motor |
vehicles upon public highways. The tax shall be at a rate not |
to exceed 5% of the gross receipts from the sales of motor fuel |
in the course of the business. As used in this Act, the term |
"motor fuel" shall have the same meaning as in the Motor Fuel |
Tax Law. The Board may provide for details of the tax. The |
|
provisions of any tax shall conform, as closely as may be |
practicable, to the provisions of the Municipal Retailers |
Occupation Tax Act, including without limitation, conformity |
to penalties with respect to the tax imposed and as to the |
powers of the State Department of Revenue to promulgate and |
enforce rules and regulations relating to the administration |
and enforcement of the provisions of the tax imposed, except |
that reference in the Act to any municipality shall refer to |
the Authority and the tax shall be imposed only with regard to |
receipts from sales of motor fuel in the metropolitan region, |
at rates as limited by this Section. |
(c) In connection with the tax imposed under paragraph (b) |
of this Section, the Board may impose a tax upon the privilege |
of using in the metropolitan region motor fuel for the |
operation of a motor vehicle upon public highways, the tax to |
be at a rate not in excess of the rate of tax imposed under |
paragraph (b) of this Section. The Board may provide for |
details of the tax. |
(d) The Board may impose a motor vehicle parking tax upon |
the privilege of parking motor vehicles at off-street parking |
facilities in the metropolitan region at which a fee is |
charged, and may provide for reasonable classifications in and |
exemptions to the tax, for administration and enforcement |
thereof and for civil penalties and refunds thereunder and may |
provide criminal penalties thereunder, the maximum penalties |
not to exceed the maximum criminal penalties provided in the |
|
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. The Authority may collect and |
enforce the tax itself or by contract with any unit of local |
government. The State Department of Revenue shall have no |
responsibility for the collection and enforcement unless the |
Department agrees with the Authority to undertake the |
collection and enforcement. As used in this paragraph, the |
term "parking facility" means a parking area or structure |
having parking spaces for more than 2 vehicles at which motor |
vehicles are permitted to park in return for an hourly, daily, |
or other periodic fee, whether publicly or privately owned, |
but does not include parking spaces on a public street, the use |
of which is regulated by parking meters. |
(e) The Board may impose a Regional Transportation |
Authority Retailers' Occupation Tax upon all persons engaged |
in the business of selling tangible personal property at |
retail in the metropolitan region. In Cook County, the tax |
rate shall be 1.25% of the gross receipts from sales of |
tangible personal property taxed at the 1% rate under the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under |
this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly), and 1% of |
the gross receipts from other taxable sales made in the course |
of that business. In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will |
counties, the tax rate shall be 0.75% of the gross receipts |
from all taxable sales made in the course of that business. The |
rate of tax imposed in DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will |
counties under this Section on sales of aviation fuel on or |
|
after December 1, 2019 shall, however, be 0.25% unless the |
Regional Transportation Authority in DuPage, Kane, Lake, |
McHenry, and Will counties has an "airport-related purpose" |
and the additional 0.50% of the 0.75% tax on aviation fuel is |
expended for airport-related purposes. If there is no |
airport-related purpose to which aviation fuel tax revenue is |
dedicated, then aviation fuel is excluded from the additional |
0.50% of the 0.75% tax. The tax imposed under this Section and |
all civil penalties that may be assessed as an incident |
thereof shall be collected and enforced by the State |
Department of Revenue. The Department shall have full power to |
administer and enforce this Section; to collect all taxes and |
penalties so collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and |
to determine all rights to credit memoranda arising on account |
of the erroneous payment of tax or penalty hereunder. In the |
administration of, and compliance with this Section, the |
Department and persons who are subject to this Section shall |
have the same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, |
powers, and duties, and be subject to the same conditions, |
restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, exemptions, |
and definitions of terms, and employ the same modes of |
procedure, as are prescribed in Sections 1, 1a, 1a-1, 1c, 1d, |
1e, 1f, 1i, 1j, 2 through 2-65 (in respect to all provisions |
therein other than the State rate of tax), 2c, 3 (except as to |
the disposition of taxes and penalties collected, and except |
that the retailer's discount is not allowed for taxes paid on |
|
aviation fuel that are subject to the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133), 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, |
5d, 5e, 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, 5j, 5k, 5l, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 6d, 7, 8, 9, |
10, 11, 12, and 13 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and |
Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, as fully |
as if those provisions were set forth herein. |
The Board and DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will |
counties must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
Authority. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this Section may reimburse themselves for their |
seller's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the tax |
as an additional charge, which charge may be stated in |
combination in a single amount with State taxes that sellers |
are required to collect under the Use Tax Act, under any |
bracket schedules the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this Section to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
|
amount specified, and to the person named, in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation Authority tax |
fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section or the |
Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
If a tax is imposed under this subsection (e), a tax shall |
also be imposed under subsections (f) and (g) of this Section. |
For the purpose of determining whether a tax authorized |
under this Section is applicable, a retail sale by a producer |
of coal or other mineral mined in Illinois, is a sale at retail |
at the place where the coal or other mineral mined in Illinois |
is extracted from the earth. This paragraph does not apply to |
coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the |
seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that the |
sale is exempt under the Federal Constitution as a sale in |
interstate or foreign commerce. |
No tax shall be imposed or collected under this subsection |
on the sale of a motor vehicle in this State to a resident of |
another state if that motor vehicle will not be titled in this |
State. |
Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize |
the Regional Transportation Authority to impose a tax upon the |
privilege of engaging in any business that under the |
Constitution of the United States may not be made the subject |
of taxation by this State. |
(f) If a tax has been imposed under paragraph (e), a |
|
Regional Transportation Authority Service Occupation Tax shall |
also be imposed upon all persons engaged, in the metropolitan |
region in the business of making sales of service, who as an |
incident to making the sales of service, transfer tangible |
personal property within the metropolitan region, either in |
the form of tangible personal property or in the form of real |
estate as an incident to a sale of service. In Cook County, the |
tax rate shall be: (1) 1.25% of the serviceman's cost price of |
food prepared for immediate consumption and transferred |
incident to a sale of service subject to the service |
occupation tax by an entity licensed under the Hospital |
Licensing Act, the Nursing Home Care Act, the Specialized |
Mental Health Rehabilitation Act of 2013, the ID/DD Community |
Care Act, or the MC/DD Act that is located in the metropolitan |
region; (2) 1.25% of the selling price of tangible personal |
property taxed at the 1% rate under the Service Occupation Tax |
Act (or at the 0% rate imposed under this amendatory Act of the |
102nd General Assembly); and (3) 1% of the selling price from |
other taxable sales of tangible personal property transferred. |
In DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties, the rate |
shall be 0.75% of the selling price of all tangible personal |
property transferred. The rate of tax imposed in DuPage, Kane, |
Lake, McHenry, and Will counties under this Section on sales |
of aviation fuel on or after December 1, 2019 shall, however, |
be 0.25% unless the Regional Transportation Authority in |
DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties has an |
|
"airport-related purpose" and the additional 0.50% of the |
0.75% tax on aviation fuel is expended for airport-related |
purposes. If there is no airport-related purpose to which |
aviation fuel tax revenue is dedicated, then aviation fuel is |
excluded from the additional 0.5% of the 0.75% tax. |
The Board and DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will |
counties must comply with the certification requirements for |
airport-related purposes under Section 2-22 of the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act. For purposes of this Section, |
"airport-related purposes" has the meaning ascribed in Section |
6z-20.2 of the State Finance Act. This exclusion for aviation |
fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements |
of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the |
Authority. |
The tax imposed under this paragraph and all civil |
penalties that may be assessed as an incident thereof shall be |
collected and enforced by the State Department of Revenue. The |
Department shall have full power to administer and enforce |
this paragraph; to collect all taxes and penalties due |
hereunder; to dispose of taxes and penalties collected in the |
manner hereinafter provided; and to determine all rights to |
credit memoranda arising on account of the erroneous payment |
of tax or penalty hereunder. In the administration of and |
compliance with this paragraph, the Department and persons who |
are subject to this paragraph shall have the same rights, |
remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and duties, and be |
|
subject to the same conditions, restrictions, limitations, |
penalties, exclusions, exemptions, and definitions of terms, |
and employ the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in |
Sections 1a-1, 2, 2a, 3 through 3-50 (in respect to all |
provisions therein other than the State rate of tax), 4 |
(except that the reference to the State shall be to the |
Authority), 5, 7, 8 (except that the jurisdiction to which the |
tax shall be a debt to the extent indicated in that Section 8 |
shall be the Authority), 9 (except as to the disposition of |
taxes and penalties collected, and except that the returned |
merchandise credit for this tax may not be taken against any |
State tax, and except that the retailer's discount is not |
allowed for taxes paid on aviation fuel that are subject to the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133), 10, 11, 12 (except the reference therein to Section 2b |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), 13 (except that any |
reference to the State shall mean the Authority), the first |
paragraph of Section 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, and 20 of the Service |
Occupation Tax Act and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and |
Interest Act, as fully as if those provisions were set forth |
herein. |
Persons subject to any tax imposed under the authority |
granted in this paragraph may reimburse themselves for their |
serviceman's tax liability hereunder by separately stating the |
tax as an additional charge, that charge may be stated in |
combination in a single amount with State tax that servicemen |
|
are authorized to collect under the Service Use Tax Act, under |
any bracket schedules the Department may prescribe. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the warrant to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation Authority tax |
fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section or the |
Local Government Aviation Trust Fund, as appropriate. |
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to authorize |
the Authority to impose a tax upon the privilege of engaging in |
any business that under the Constitution of the United States |
may not be made the subject of taxation by the State. |
(g) If a tax has been imposed under paragraph (e), a tax |
shall also be imposed upon the privilege of using in the |
metropolitan region, any item of tangible personal property |
that is purchased outside the metropolitan region at retail |
from a retailer, and that is titled or registered with an |
agency of this State's government. In Cook County, the tax |
rate shall be 1% of the selling price of the tangible personal |
property, as "selling price" is defined in the Use Tax Act. In |
DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will counties, the tax rate |
shall be 0.75% of the selling price of the tangible personal |
property, as "selling price" is defined in the Use Tax Act. The |
|
tax shall be collected from persons whose Illinois address for |
titling or registration purposes is given as being in the |
metropolitan region. The tax shall be collected by the |
Department of Revenue for the Regional Transportation |
Authority. The tax must be paid to the State, or an exemption |
determination must be obtained from the Department of Revenue, |
before the title or certificate of registration for the |
property may be issued. The tax or proof of exemption may be |
transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with |
which, or the State officer with whom, the tangible personal |
property must be titled or registered if the Department and |
the State agency or State officer determine that this |
procedure will expedite the processing of applications for |
title or registration. |
The Department shall have full power to administer and |
enforce this paragraph; to collect all taxes, penalties, and |
interest due hereunder; to dispose of taxes, penalties, and |
interest collected in the manner hereinafter provided; and to |
determine all rights to credit memoranda or refunds arising on |
account of the erroneous payment of tax, penalty, or interest |
hereunder. In the administration of and compliance with this |
paragraph, the Department and persons who are subject to this |
paragraph shall have the same rights, remedies, privileges, |
immunities, powers, and duties, and be subject to the same |
conditions, restrictions, limitations, penalties, exclusions, |
exemptions, and definitions of terms and employ the same modes |
|
of procedure, as are prescribed in Sections 2 (except the |
definition of "retailer maintaining a place of business in |
this State"), 3 through 3-80 (except provisions pertaining to |
the State rate of tax, and except provisions concerning |
collection or refunding of the tax by retailers), 4, 11, 12, |
12a, 14, 15, 19 (except the portions pertaining to claims by |
retailers and except the last paragraph concerning refunds), |
20, 21, and 22 of the Use Tax Act, and are not inconsistent |
with this paragraph, as fully as if those provisions were set |
forth herein. |
Whenever the Department determines that a refund should be |
made under this paragraph to a claimant instead of issuing a |
credit memorandum, the Department shall notify the State |
Comptroller, who shall cause the order to be drawn for the |
amount specified, and to the person named in the notification |
from the Department. The refund shall be paid by the State |
Treasurer out of the Regional Transportation Authority tax |
fund established under paragraph (n) of this Section. |
(g-5) If, on January 1, 2025, a unit of local government |
has in effect a tax under subsections (e), (f), and (g), or if, |
after January 1, 2025, a unit of local government imposes a tax |
under subsections (e), (f), and (g), then that tax applies to |
leases of tangible personal property in effect, entered into, |
or renewed on or after that date in the same manner as the tax |
under this Section and in accordance with the changes made by |
this amendatory Act of the 103rd General Assembly. |
|
(h) The Authority may impose a replacement vehicle tax of |
$50 on any passenger car as defined in Section 1-157 of the |
Illinois Vehicle Code purchased within the metropolitan region |
by or on behalf of an insurance company to replace a passenger |
car of an insured person in settlement of a total loss claim. |
The tax imposed may not become effective before the first day |
of the month following the passage of the ordinance imposing |
the tax and receipt of a certified copy of the ordinance by the |
Department of Revenue. The Department of Revenue shall collect |
the tax for the Authority in accordance with Sections 3-2002 |
and 3-2003 of the Illinois Vehicle Code. |
The Department shall immediately pay over to the State |
Treasurer, ex officio, as trustee, all taxes collected |
hereunder. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, |
beginning January 1, 2011, upon certification of the |
Department of Revenue, the Comptroller shall order |
transferred, and the Treasurer shall transfer, to the STAR |
Bonds Revenue Fund the local sales tax increment, as defined |
in the Innovation Development and Economy Act, collected under |
this Section during the second preceding calendar month for |
sales within a STAR bond district. |
After the monthly transfer to the STAR Bonds Revenue Fund, |
on or before the 25th day of each calendar month, the |
Department shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller the |
disbursement of stated sums of money to the Authority. The |
|
amount to be paid to the Authority shall be the amount |
collected hereunder during the second preceding calendar month |
by the Department, less any amount determined by the |
Department to be necessary for the payment of refunds, and |
less any amounts that are transferred to the STAR Bonds |
Revenue Fund. Within 10 days after receipt by the Comptroller |
of the disbursement certification to the Authority provided |
for in this Section to be given to the Comptroller by the |
Department, the Comptroller shall cause the orders to be drawn |
for that amount in accordance with the directions contained in |
the certification. |
(i) The Board may not impose any other taxes except as it |
may from time to time be authorized by law to impose. |
(j) A certificate of registration issued by the State |
Department of Revenue to a retailer under the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act or under the Service Occupation Tax Act |
shall permit the registrant to engage in a business that is |
taxed under the tax imposed under paragraphs (b), (e), (f) or |
(g) of this Section and no additional registration shall be |
required under the tax. A certificate issued under the Use Tax |
Act or the Service Use Tax Act shall be applicable with regard |
to any tax imposed under paragraph (c) of this Section. |
(k) The provisions of any tax imposed under paragraph (c) |
of this Section shall conform as closely as may be practicable |
to the provisions of the Use Tax Act, including without |
limitation conformity as to penalties with respect to the tax |
|
imposed and as to the powers of the State Department of Revenue |
to promulgate and enforce rules and regulations relating to |
the administration and enforcement of the provisions of the |
tax imposed. The taxes shall be imposed only on use within the |
metropolitan region and at rates as provided in the paragraph. |
(l) The Board in imposing any tax as provided in |
paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, shall, after seeking |
the advice of the State Department of Revenue, provide means |
for retailers, users or purchasers of motor fuel for purposes |
other than those with regard to which the taxes may be imposed |
as provided in those paragraphs to receive refunds of taxes |
improperly paid, which provisions may be at variance with the |
refund provisions as applicable under the Municipal Retailers |
Occupation Tax Act. The State Department of Revenue may |
provide for certificates of registration for users or |
purchasers of motor fuel for purposes other than those with |
regard to which taxes may be imposed as provided in paragraphs |
(b) and (c) of this Section to facilitate the reporting and |
nontaxability of the exempt sales or uses. |
(m) Any ordinance imposing or discontinuing any tax under |
this Section shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof |
filed with the Department on or before June 1, whereupon the |
Department of Revenue shall proceed to administer and enforce |
this Section on behalf of the Regional Transportation |
Authority as of September 1 next following such adoption and |
filing. Beginning January 1, 1992, an ordinance or resolution |
|
imposing or discontinuing the tax hereunder shall be adopted |
and a certified copy thereof filed with the Department on or |
before the first day of July, whereupon the Department shall |
proceed to administer and enforce this Section as of the first |
day of October next following such adoption and filing. |
Beginning January 1, 1993, an ordinance or resolution |
imposing, increasing, decreasing, or discontinuing the tax |
hereunder shall be adopted and a certified copy thereof filed |
with the Department, whereupon the Department shall proceed to |
administer and enforce this Section as of the first day of the |
first month to occur not less than 60 days following such |
adoption and filing. Any ordinance or resolution of the |
Authority imposing a tax under this Section and in effect on |
August 1, 2007 shall remain in full force and effect and shall |
be administered by the Department of Revenue under the terms |
and conditions and rates of tax established by such ordinance |
or resolution until the Department begins administering and |
enforcing an increased tax under this Section as authorized by |
Public Act 95-708. The tax rates authorized by Public Act |
95-708 are effective only if imposed by ordinance of the |
Authority. |
(n) Except as otherwise provided in this subsection (n), |
the State Department of Revenue shall, upon collecting any |
taxes as provided in this Section, pay the taxes over to the |
State Treasurer as trustee for the Authority. The taxes shall |
be held in a trust fund outside the State Treasury. If an |
|
airport-related purpose has been certified, taxes and |
penalties collected in DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will |
counties on aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019 |
from the 0.50% of the 0.75% rate shall be immediately paid over |
by the Department to the State Treasurer, ex officio, as |
trustee, for deposit into the Local Government Aviation Trust |
Fund. The Department shall only pay moneys into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund under this Act for so long as |
the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the Authority. On or before the |
25th day of each calendar month, the State Department of |
Revenue shall prepare and certify to the Comptroller of the |
State of Illinois and to the Authority (i) the amount of taxes |
collected in each county other than Cook County in the |
metropolitan region, (not including, if an airport-related |
purpose has been certified, the taxes and penalties collected |
from the 0.50% of the 0.75% rate on aviation fuel sold on or |
after December 1, 2019 that are deposited into the Local |
Government Aviation Trust Fund) (ii) the amount of taxes |
collected within the City of Chicago, and (iii) the amount |
collected in that portion of Cook County outside of Chicago, |
each amount less the amount necessary for the payment of |
refunds to taxpayers located in those areas described in items |
(i), (ii), and (iii), and less 1.5% of the remainder, which |
shall be transferred from the trust fund into the Tax |
Compliance and Administration Fund. The Department, at the |
|
time of each monthly disbursement to the Authority, shall |
prepare and certify to the State Comptroller the amount to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund |
under this subsection. Within 10 days after receipt by the |
Comptroller of the certification of the amounts, the |
Comptroller shall cause an order to be drawn for the transfer |
of the amount certified into the Tax Compliance and |
Administration Fund and the payment of two-thirds of the |
amounts certified in item (i) of this subsection to the |
Authority and one-third of the amounts certified in item (i) |
of this subsection to the respective counties other than Cook |
County and the amount certified in items (ii) and (iii) of this |
subsection to the Authority. |
In addition to the disbursement required by the preceding |
paragraph, an allocation shall be made in July 1991 and each |
year thereafter to the Regional Transportation Authority. The |
allocation shall be made in an amount equal to the average |
monthly distribution during the preceding calendar year |
(excluding the 2 months of lowest receipts) and the allocation |
shall include the amount of average monthly distribution from |
the Regional Transportation Authority Occupation and Use Tax |
Replacement Fund. The distribution made in July 1992 and each |
year thereafter under this paragraph and the preceding |
paragraph shall be reduced by the amount allocated and |
disbursed under this paragraph in the preceding calendar year. |
The Department of Revenue shall prepare and certify to the |
|
Comptroller for disbursement the allocations made in |
accordance with this paragraph. |
(o) Failure to adopt a budget ordinance or otherwise to |
comply with Section 4.01 of this Act or to adopt a Five-year |
Capital Program or otherwise to comply with paragraph (b) of |
Section 2.01 of this Act shall not affect the validity of any |
tax imposed by the Authority otherwise in conformity with law. |
(p) At no time shall a public transportation tax or motor |
vehicle parking tax authorized under paragraphs (b), (c), and |
(d) of this Section be in effect at the same time as any |
retailers' occupation, use or service occupation tax |
authorized under paragraphs (e), (f), and (g) of this Section |
is in effect. |
Any taxes imposed under the authority provided in |
paragraphs (b), (c), and (d) shall remain in effect only until |
the time as any tax authorized by paragraph (e), (f), or (g) of |
this Section are imposed and becomes effective. Once any tax |
authorized by paragraph (e), (f), or (g) is imposed the Board |
may not reimpose taxes as authorized in paragraphs (b), (c), |
and (d) of the Section unless any tax authorized by paragraph |
(e), (f), or (g) of this Section becomes ineffective by means |
other than an ordinance of the Board. |
(q) Any existing rights, remedies and obligations |
(including enforcement by the Regional Transportation |
Authority) arising under any tax imposed under paragraph (b), |
(c), or (d) of this Section shall not be affected by the |
|
imposition of a tax under paragraph (e), (f), or (g) of this |
Section. |

ARTICLE 80. |
Section 80-5. The Cigarette Tax Act is amended by changing |
Sections 4b, 9, 9e, and 9f as follows: |
(35 ILCS 130/4b) (from Ch. 120, par. 453.4b) |
Sec. 4b. (a) The Department may, in its discretion, upon |
application, issue permits authorizing the payment of the tax |
herein imposed by out-of-State cigarette manufacturers who are |
not required to be licensed as distributors of cigarettes in |
this State, but who elect to qualify under this Act as |
distributors of cigarettes in this State, and who, to the |
satisfaction of the Department, furnish adequate security to |
insure payment of the tax, provided that any such permit shall |
extend only to cigarettes which such permittee manufacturer |
places in original packages that are contained inside a sealed |
transparent wrapper. Such permits shall be issued without |
charge in such form as the Department may prescribe and shall |
not be transferable or assignable. |
The following are ineligible to receive a distributor's |
permit under this subsection: |
|
(1) a person who is not of good character and |
reputation in the community in which he resides; the |
Department may consider past conviction of a felony but |
the conviction shall not operate as an absolute bar to |
receiving a permit; |
(2) a person who has been convicted of a felony under |
any Federal or State law, if the Department, after |
investigation and a hearing and consideration of |
mitigating factors and evidence of rehabilitation |
contained in the applicant's record, including those in |
Section 4i of this Act, determines that such person has |
not been sufficiently rehabilitated to warrant the public |
trust and the conviction will impair the ability of the |
person to engage in the position for which a permit is |
sought; |
(3) a corporation, if any officer, manager or director |
thereof, or any stockholder or stockholders owning in the |
aggregate more than 5% of the stock of such corporation, |
would not be eligible to receive a permit under this Act |
for any reason. |
With respect to cigarettes which come within the scope of |
such a permit and which any such permittee delivers or causes |
to be delivered in Illinois to licensed distributors, such |
permittee shall remit the tax imposed by this Act at the times |
provided for in Section 3 of this Act. Each such remittance |
shall be accompanied by a return filed with the Department on a |
|
form to be prescribed and furnished by the Department and |
shall disclose such information as the Department may lawfully |
require. Information that the Department may lawfully require |
includes information related to the uniform regulation and |
taxation of cigarettes. The Department may promulgate rules to |
require that the permittee's return be accompanied by |
appropriate computer-generated magnetic media supporting |
schedule data in the format prescribed by the Department, |
unless, as provided by rule, the Department grants an |
exception upon petition of the permittee. Each such return |
shall be accompanied by a copy of each invoice rendered by the |
permittee to any licensed distributor to whom the permittee |
delivered cigarettes of the type covered by the permit (or |
caused cigarettes of the type covered by the permit to be |
delivered) in Illinois during the period covered by such |
return. |
Such permit may be suspended, canceled or revoked when, at |
any time, the Department considers that the security given is |
inadequate, or that such tax can more effectively be collected |
from distributors located in this State, or whenever the |
permittee violates any provision of this Act or any lawful |
rule or regulation issued by the Department pursuant to this |
Act or is determined to be ineligible for a distributor's |
permit under this Act as provided in this Section, whenever |
the permittee shall notify the Department in writing of his |
desire to have the permit canceled. The Department shall have |
|
the power, in its discretion, to issue a new permit after such |
suspension, cancellation or revocation, except when the person |
who would receive the permit is ineligible to receive a |
distributor's permit under this Act. |
All permits issued by the Department under this Act shall |
be valid for not to exceed one year after issuance unless |
sooner revoked, canceled or suspended as in this Act provided. |
(b) Out-of-state cigarette manufacturers who are not |
required to be licensed as distributors of cigarettes in this |
State and who do not elect to obtain approval under subsection |
4b(a) to pay the tax imposed by this Act, but who elect to |
qualify under this Act as distributors of cigarettes in this |
State for purposes of shipping and delivering unstamped |
original packages of cigarettes into this State to licensed |
distributors, shall obtain a permit from the Department. These |
permits shall be issued without charge in such form as the |
Department may prescribe and shall not be transferable or |
assignable. |
The following are ineligible to receive a distributor's |
permit under this subsection: |
(1) a person who is not of good character and |
reputation in the community in which he or she resides; |
the Department may consider past conviction of a felony |
but the conviction shall not operate as an absolute bar to |
receiving a permit; |
(2) a person who has been convicted of a felony under |
|
any federal or State law, if the Department, after |
investigation and a hearing and consideration of |
mitigating factors and evidence of rehabilitation |
contained in the applicant's record, including those set |
forth in Section 4i of this Act, determines that the |
person has not been sufficiently rehabilitated to warrant |
the public trust and the conviction will impair the |
ability of the person to engage in the position for which a |
permit is sought; and |
(3) a corporation, if any officer, manager, or |
director thereof, or any stockholder or stockholders |
owning in the aggregate more than 5% of the stock of the |
corporation, would not be eligible to receive a permit |
under this Act for any reason. |
With respect to original packages of cigarettes that such |
permittee delivers or causes to be delivered in Illinois and |
distributes to the public for promotional purposes without |
consideration, the permittee shall pay the tax imposed by this |
Act by remitting the amount thereof to the Department by the |
5th day of each month covering cigarettes shipped or otherwise |
delivered in Illinois for those purposes during the preceding |
calendar month. The permittee, before delivering those |
cigarettes or causing those cigarettes to be delivered in this |
State, shall evidence his or her obligation to remit the taxes |
due with respect to those cigarettes by imprinting language to |
be prescribed by the Department on each original package of |
|
cigarettes, in such place thereon and in such manner also to be |
prescribed by the Department. The imprinted language shall |
acknowledge the permittee's payment of or liability for the |
tax imposed by this Act with respect to the distribution of |
those cigarettes. |
With respect to cigarettes that the permittee delivers or |
causes to be delivered in Illinois to Illinois licensed |
distributors or distributed to the public for promotional |
purposes, the permittee shall, by the 5th day of each month, |
file with the Department, a report covering cigarettes shipped |
or otherwise delivered in Illinois to licensed distributors or |
distributed to the public for promotional purposes during the |
preceding calendar month on a form to be prescribed and |
furnished by the Department and shall disclose such other |
information as the Department may lawfully require. |
Information that the Department may lawfully require includes |
information related to the uniform regulation and taxation of |
cigarettes. The Department may promulgate rules to require |
that the permittee's report be accompanied by appropriate |
computer-generated magnetic media supporting schedule data in |
the format prescribed by the Department, unless, as provided |
by rule, the Department grants an exception upon petition of |
the permittee. Each such report shall be accompanied by a copy |
of each invoice rendered by the permittee to any purchaser to |
whom the permittee delivered cigarettes of the type covered by |
the permit (or caused cigarettes of the type covered by the |
|
permit to be delivered) in Illinois during the period covered |
by such report. |
Such permit may be suspended, canceled, or revoked |
whenever the permittee violates any provision of this Act or |
any lawful rule or regulation issued by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, is determined to be ineligible for a |
distributor's permit under this Act as provided in this |
Section, or notifies the Department in writing of his or her |
desire to have the permit canceled. The Department shall have |
the power, in its discretion, to issue a new permit after such |
suspension, cancellation, or revocation, except when the |
person who would receive the permit is ineligible to receive a |
distributor's permit under this Act. |
All permits issued by the Department under this Act shall |
be valid for a period not to exceed one year after issuance |
unless sooner revoked, canceled, or suspended as provided in |
this Act. |

ARTICLE 85. |
Section 85-5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by |
changing Section 304 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 5/304) (from Ch. 120, par. 3-304) |
Sec. 304. Business income of persons other than residents. |
(a) In general. The business income of a person other than |
a resident shall be allocated to this State if such person's |
business income is derived solely from this State. If a person |
other than a resident derives business income from this State |
and one or more other states, then, for tax years ending on or |
before December 30, 1998, and except as otherwise provided by |
this Section, such person's business income shall be |
apportioned to this State by multiplying the income by a |
fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the property |
factor (if any), the payroll factor (if any) and 200% of the |
sales factor (if any), and the denominator of which is 4 |
|
reduced by the number of factors other than the sales factor |
which have a denominator of zero and by an additional 2 if the |
sales factor has a denominator of zero. For tax years ending on |
or after December 31, 1998, and except as otherwise provided |
by this Section, persons other than residents who derive |
business income from this State and one or more other states |
shall compute their apportionment factor by weighting their |
property, payroll, and sales factors as provided in subsection |
(h) of this Section. |
(1) Property factor. |
(A) The property factor is a fraction, the numerator |
of which is the average value of the person's real and |
tangible personal property owned or rented and used in the |
trade or business in this State during the taxable year |
and the denominator of which is the average value of all |
the person's real and tangible personal property owned or |
rented and used in the trade or business during the |
taxable year. |
(B) Property owned by the person is valued at its |
original cost. Property rented by the person is valued at |
8 times the net annual rental rate. Net annual rental rate |
is the annual rental rate paid by the person less any |
annual rental rate received by the person from |
sub-rentals. |
(C) The average value of property shall be determined |
by averaging the values at the beginning and ending of the |
|
taxable year , but the Director may require the averaging |
of monthly values during the taxable year if reasonably |
required to reflect properly the average value of the |
person's property. |
(2) Payroll factor. |
(A) The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the total amount paid in this State during the |
taxable year by the person for compensation, and the |
denominator of which is the total compensation paid |
everywhere during the taxable year. |
(B) Compensation is paid in this State if: |
(i) The individual's service is performed entirely |
within this State; |
(ii) The individual's service is performed both |
within and without this State, but the service |
performed without this State is incidental to the |
individual's service performed within this State; or |
(iii) For tax years ending prior to December 31, |
2020, some of the service is performed within this |
State and either the base of operations, or if there is |
no base of operations, the place from which the |
service is directed or controlled is within this |
State, or the base of operations or the place from |
which the service is directed or controlled is not in |
any state in which some part of the service is |
performed, but the individual's residence is in this |
|
State. For tax years ending on or after December 31, |
2020, compensation is paid in this State if some of the |
individual's service is performed within this State, |
the individual's service performed within this State |
is nonincidental to the individual's service performed |
without this State, and the individual's service is |
performed within this State for more than 30 working |
days during the tax year. The amount of compensation |
paid in this State shall include the portion of the |
individual's total compensation for services performed |
on behalf of his or her employer during the tax year |
which the number of working days spent within this |
State during the tax year bears to the total number of |
working days spent both within and without this State |
during the tax year. For purposes of this paragraph: |
(a) The term "working day" means all days |
during the tax year in which the individual |
performs duties on behalf of his or her employer. |
All days in which the individual performs no |
duties on behalf of his or her employer (e.g., |
weekends, vacation days, sick days, and holidays) |
are not working days. |
(b) A working day is spent within this State |
if: |
(1) the individual performs service on |
behalf of the employer and a greater amount of |
|
time on that day is spent by the individual |
performing duties on behalf of the employer |
within this State, without regard to time |
spent traveling, than is spent performing |
duties on behalf of the employer without this |
State; or |
(2) the only service the individual |
performs on behalf of the employer on that day |
is traveling to a destination within this |
State, and the individual arrives on that day. |
(c) Working days spent within this State do |
not include any day in which the employee is |
performing services in this State during a |
disaster period solely in response to a request |
made to his or her employer by the government of |
this State, by any political subdivision of this |
State, or by a person conducting business in this |
State to perform disaster or emergency-related |
services in this State. For purposes of this item |
(c): |
"Declared State disaster or emergency" |
means a disaster or emergency event (i) for |
which a Governor's proclamation of a state of |
emergency has been issued or (ii) for which a |
Presidential declaration of a federal major |
disaster or emergency has been issued. |
|
"Disaster period" means a period that |
begins 10 days prior to the date of the |
Governor's proclamation or the President's |
declaration (whichever is earlier) and extends |
for a period of 60 calendar days after the end |
of the declared disaster or emergency period. |
"Disaster or emergency-related services" |
means repairing, renovating, installing, |
building, or rendering services or conducting |
other business activities that relate to |
infrastructure that has been damaged, |
impaired, or destroyed by the declared State |
disaster or emergency. |
"Infrastructure" means property and |
equipment owned or used by a public utility, |
communications network, broadband and internet |
service provider, cable and video service |
provider, electric or gas distribution system, |
or water pipeline that provides service to |
more than one customer or person, including |
related support facilities. "Infrastructure" |
includes, but is not limited to, real and |
personal property such as buildings, offices, |
power lines, cable lines, poles, |
communications lines, pipes, structures, and |
equipment. |
|
(iv) Compensation paid to nonresident professional |
athletes. |
(a) General. The Illinois source income of a |
nonresident individual who is a member of a |
professional athletic team includes the portion of the |
individual's total compensation for services performed |
as a member of a professional athletic team during the |
taxable year which the number of duty days spent |
within this State performing services for the team in |
any manner during the taxable year bears to the total |
number of duty days spent both within and without this |
State during the taxable year. |
(b) Travel days. Travel days that do not involve |
either a game, practice, team meeting, or other |
similar team event are not considered duty days spent |
in this State. However, such travel days are |
considered in the total duty days spent both within |
and without this State. |
(c) Definitions. For purposes of this subpart |
(iv): |
(1) The term "professional athletic team" |
includes, but is not limited to, any professional |
baseball, basketball, football, soccer, or hockey |
team. |
(2) The term "member of a professional |
athletic team" includes those employees who are |
|
active players, players on the disabled list, and |
any other persons required to travel and who |
travel with and perform services on behalf of a |
professional athletic team on a regular basis. |
This includes, but is not limited to, coaches, |
managers, and trainers. |
(3) Except as provided in items (C) and (D) of |
this subpart (3), the term "duty days" means all |
days during the taxable year from the beginning of |
the professional athletic team's official |
pre-season training period through the last game |
in which the team competes or is scheduled to |
compete. Duty days shall be counted for the year |
in which they occur, including where a team's |
official pre-season training period through the |
last game in which the team competes or is |
scheduled to compete, occurs during more than one |
tax year. |
(A) Duty days shall also include days on |
which a member of a professional athletic team |
performs service for a team on a date that |
does not fall within the foregoing period |
(e.g., participation in instructional leagues, |
the "All Star Game", or promotional |
"caravans"). Performing a service for a |
professional athletic team includes conducting |
|
training and rehabilitation activities, when |
such activities are conducted at team |
facilities. |
(B) Also included in duty days are game |
days, practice days, days spent at team |
meetings, promotional caravans, preseason |
training camps, and days served with the team |
through all post-season games in which the |
team competes or is scheduled to compete. |
(C) Duty days for any person who joins a |
team during the period from the beginning of |
the professional athletic team's official |
pre-season training period through the last |
game in which the team competes, or is |
scheduled to compete, shall begin on the day |
that person joins the team. Conversely, duty |
days for any person who leaves a team during |
this period shall end on the day that person |
leaves the team. Where a person switches teams |
during a taxable year, a separate duty-day |
calculation shall be made for the period the |
person was with each team. |
(D) Days for which a member of a |
professional athletic team is not compensated |
and is not performing services for the team in |
any manner, including days when such member of |
|
a professional athletic team has been |
suspended without pay and prohibited from |
performing any services for the team, shall |
not be treated as duty days. |
(E) Days for which a member of a |
professional athletic team is on the disabled |
list and does not conduct rehabilitation |
activities at facilities of the team, and is |
not otherwise performing services for the team |
in Illinois, shall not be considered duty days |
spent in this State. All days on the disabled |
list, however, are considered to be included |
in total duty days spent both within and |
without this State. |
(4) The term "total compensation for services |
performed as a member of a professional athletic |
team" means the total compensation received during |
the taxable year for services performed: |
(A) from the beginning of the official |
pre-season training period through the last |
game in which the team competes or is |
scheduled to compete during that taxable year; |
and |
(B) during the taxable year on a date |
which does not fall within the foregoing |
period (e.g., participation in instructional |
|
leagues, the "All Star Game", or promotional |
caravans). |
This compensation shall include, but is not |
limited to, salaries, wages, bonuses as described |
in this subpart, and any other type of |
compensation paid during the taxable year to a |
member of a professional athletic team for |
services performed in that year. This compensation |
does not include strike benefits, severance pay, |
termination pay, contract or option year buy-out |
payments, expansion or relocation payments, or any |
other payments not related to services performed |
for the team. |
For purposes of this subparagraph, "bonuses" |
included in "total compensation for services |
performed as a member of a professional athletic |
team" subject to the allocation described in |
Section 302(c)(1) are: bonuses earned as a result |
of play (i.e., performance bonuses) during the |
season, including bonuses paid for championship, |
playoff or "bowl" games played by a team, or for |
selection to all-star league or other honorary |
positions; and bonuses paid for signing a |
contract, unless the payment of the signing bonus |
is not conditional upon the signee playing any |
games for the team or performing any subsequent |
|
services for the team or even making the team, the |
signing bonus is payable separately from the |
salary and any other compensation, and the signing |
bonus is nonrefundable. |
(3) Sales factor. |
(A) The sales factor is a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the total sales of the person in this State during |
the taxable year, and the denominator of which is the |
total sales of the person everywhere during the taxable |
year. |
(B) Sales of tangible personal property are in this |
State if: |
(i) The property is delivered or shipped to a |
purchaser, other than the United States government, |
within this State regardless of the f. o. b. point or |
other conditions of the sale; or |
(ii) The property is shipped from an office, |
store, warehouse, factory or other place of storage in |
this State and either the purchaser is the United |
States government or the person is not taxable in the |
state of the purchaser; provided, however, that |
premises owned or leased by a person who has |
independently contracted with the seller for the |
printing of newspapers, periodicals or books shall not |
be deemed to be an office, store, warehouse, factory |
or other place of storage for purposes of this |
|
Section. Sales of tangible personal property are not |
in this State if the seller and purchaser would be |
members of the same unitary business group but for the |
fact that either the seller or purchaser is a person |
with 80% or more of total business activity outside of |
the United States and the property is purchased for |
resale. |
(B-1) Patents, copyrights, trademarks, and similar |
items of intangible personal property. |
(i) Gross receipts from the licensing, sale, or |
other disposition of a patent, copyright, trademark, |
or similar item of intangible personal property, other |
than gross receipts governed by paragraph (B-7) of |
this item (3), are in this State to the extent the item |
is utilized in this State during the year the gross |
receipts are included in gross income. |
(ii) Place of utilization. |
(I) A patent is utilized in a state to the |
extent that it is employed in production, |
fabrication, manufacturing, or other processing in |
the state or to the extent that a patented product |
is produced in the state. If a patent is utilized |
in more than one state, the extent to which it is |
utilized in any one state shall be a fraction |
equal to the gross receipts of the licensee or |
purchaser from sales or leases of items produced, |

|
sales factor. |
(B-2) Gross receipts from the license, sale, or other |
disposition of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and |
similar items of intangible personal property, other than |
gross receipts governed by paragraph (B-7) of this item |
(3), may be included in the numerator or denominator of |
the sales factor only if gross receipts from licenses, |
sales, or other disposition of such items comprise more |
than 50% of the taxpayer's total gross receipts included |
in gross income during the tax year and during each of the |
2 immediately preceding tax years; provided that, when a |

reasonable and consistent method. |
(B-7) For taxable years ending on or after December |

(B-7), the following terms have the following meanings: |
"Advertising revenue" means consideration received |
by the taxpayer in exchange for broadcasting services |
or allowing the broadcasting of commercials or |
announcements in connection with the broadcasting of |
film or radio programming, from sponsorships of the |
programming, or from product placements in the |
programming. |
"Audience factor" means the ratio that the |
audience or subscribers located in this State of a |
station, a network, or a cable system bears to the |
total audience or total subscribers for that station, |
network, or cable system. The audience factor for film |
or radio programming shall be determined by reference |
to the books and records of the taxpayer or by |
reference to published rating statistics provided the |
method used by the taxpayer is consistently used from |
|
year to year for this purpose and fairly represents |
the taxpayer's activity in this State. |
"Broadcast" or "broadcasting" or "broadcasting |
services" means the transmission or provision of film |
or radio programming, whether through the public |
airwaves, by cable, by direct or indirect satellite |
transmission, or by any other means of communication, |
either through a station, a network, or a cable |
system. |
"Film" or "film programming" means the broadcast |
on television of any and all performances, events, or |
productions, including, but not limited to, news, |
sporting events, plays, stories, or other literary, |
commercial, educational, or artistic works, either |
live or through the use of video tape, disc, or any |
other type of format or medium. Each episode of a |
series of films produced for television shall |
constitute separate "film" notwithstanding that the |
series relates to the same principal subject and is |
produced during one or more tax periods. |
"Radio" or "radio programming" means the broadcast |
on radio of any and all performances, events, or |
productions, including, but not limited to, news, |
sporting events, plays, stories, or other literary, |
commercial, educational, or artistic works, either |
live or through the use of an audio tape, disc, or any |
|
other format or medium. Each episode in a series of |
radio programming produced for radio broadcast shall |
constitute a separate "radio programming" |
notwithstanding that the series relates to the same |
principal subject and is produced during one or more |
tax periods. |
(i) In the case of advertising revenue from |
broadcasting, the customer is the advertiser and |
the service is received in this State if the |
commercial domicile of the advertiser is in this |
State. |
(ii) In the case where film or radio |
programming is broadcast by a station, a network, |
or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration |
received from the recipient of the broadcast, the |
portion of the service that is received in this |
State is measured by the portion of the recipients |
of the broadcast located in this State. |
Accordingly, the fee or other remuneration for |
such service that is included in the Illinois |
numerator of the sales factor is the total of |
those fees or other remuneration received from |
recipients in Illinois. For purposes of this |
paragraph, a taxpayer may determine the location |
of the recipients of its broadcast using the |
address of the recipient shown in its contracts |
|
with the recipient or using the billing address of |
the recipient in the taxpayer's records. |
(iii) In the case where film or radio |
programming is broadcast by a station, a network, |
or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration |
from the person providing the programming, the |
portion of the broadcast service that is received |
by such station, network, or cable system in this |
State is measured by the portion of recipients of |
the broadcast located in this State. Accordingly, |
the amount of revenue related to such an |
arrangement that is included in the Illinois |
numerator of the sales factor is the total fee or |
other total remuneration from the person providing |
the programming related to that broadcast |
multiplied by the Illinois audience factor for |
that broadcast. |
(iv) In the case where film or radio |
programming is provided by a taxpayer that is a |
network or station to a customer for broadcast in |
exchange for a fee or other remuneration from that |
customer the broadcasting service is received at |
the location of the office of the customer from |
which the services were ordered in the regular |
course of the customer's trade or business. |
Accordingly, in such a case the revenue derived by |
|
the taxpayer that is included in the taxpayer's |
Illinois numerator of the sales factor is the |
revenue from such customers who receive the |
broadcasting service in Illinois. |
(v) In the case where film or radio |
programming is provided by a taxpayer that is not |
a network or station to another person for |
broadcasting in exchange for a fee or other |
remuneration from that person, the broadcasting |
service is received at the location of the office |
of the customer from which the services were |
ordered in the regular course of the customer's |
trade or business. Accordingly, in such a case the |
revenue derived by the taxpayer that is included |
in the taxpayer's Illinois numerator of the sales |
factor is the revenue from such customers who |
receive the broadcasting service in Illinois. |
(B-8) Gross receipts from winnings under the Illinois |
Lottery Law from the assignment of a prize under Section |

(B-2), and (B-8) are in this State if: |
(i) The income-producing activity is performed in |
this State; or |
(ii) The income-producing activity is performed |
both within and without this State and a greater |
proportion of the income-producing activity is |
performed within this State than without this State, |
based on performance costs. |
(C-5) For taxable years ending on or after December |
31, 2008, sales, other than sales governed by paragraphs |
(B), (B-1), (B-2), (B-5), and (B-7), are in this State if |

but not limited to, motor vehicles, rolling stock, |
aircraft, vessels, or mobile equipment are in this |
State to the extent that the property is used in this |
State. |
(iii) In the case of interest, net gains (but not |
less than zero) and other items of income from |
intangible personal property, the sale is in this |
State if: |
(a) in the case of a taxpayer who is a dealer |
in the item of intangible personal property within |
the meaning of Section 475 of the Internal Revenue |
Code, the income or gain is received from a |
customer in this State. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, a customer is in this State if the |
customer is an individual, trust or estate who is |
a resident of this State and, for all other |
customers, if the customer's commercial domicile |
is in this State. Unless the dealer has actual |
knowledge of the residence or commercial domicile |
of a customer during a taxable year, the customer |
shall be deemed to be a customer in this State if |
the billing address of the customer, as shown in |
the records of the dealer, is in this State; or |
|
(b) in all other cases, if the |
income-producing activity of the taxpayer is |
performed in this State or, if the |
income-producing activity of the taxpayer is |
performed both within and without this State, if a |
greater proportion of the income-producing |
activity of the taxpayer is performed within this |
State than in any other state, based on |
performance costs. |
(iv) Sales of services are in this State if the |
services are received in this State. For the purposes |
of this section, gross receipts from the performance |
of services provided to a corporation, partnership, or |
trust may only be attributed to a state where that |
corporation, partnership, or trust has a fixed place |
of business. If the state where the services are |
received is not readily determinable or is a state |
where the corporation, partnership, or trust receiving |
the service does not have a fixed place of business, |
the services shall be deemed to be received at the |
location of the office of the customer from which the |
services were ordered in the regular course of the |
customer's trade or business. If the ordering office |
cannot be determined, the services shall be deemed to |
be received at the office of the customer to which the |
services are billed. If the taxpayer is not taxable in |
|
the state in which the services are received, the sale |
must be excluded from both the numerator and the |
denominator of the sales factor. The Department shall |
adopt rules prescribing where specific types of |
service are received, including, but not limited to, |
publishing, and utility service. |
(D) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, |
1995, the following items of income shall not be included |
in the numerator or denominator of the sales factor: |
dividends; amounts included under Section 78 of the |
Internal Revenue Code; and Subpart F income as defined in |
Section 952 of the Internal Revenue Code. No inference |
shall be drawn from the enactment of this paragraph (D) in |
construing this Section for taxable years ending before |
December 31, 1995. |
(E) Paragraphs (B-1) and (B-2) shall apply to tax |
years ending on or after December 31, 1999, provided that |
a taxpayer may elect to apply the provisions of these |
paragraphs to prior tax years. Such election shall be made |
in the form and manner prescribed by the Department, shall |
be irrevocable, and shall apply to all tax years; provided |
that, if a taxpayer's Illinois income tax liability for |
any tax year, as assessed under Section 903 prior to |
January 1, 1999, was computed in a manner contrary to the |
provisions of paragraphs (B-1) or (B-2), no refund shall |
be payable to the taxpayer for that tax year to the extent |
|
such refund is the result of applying the provisions of |
paragraph (B-1) or (B-2) retroactively. In the case of a |
unitary business group, such election shall apply to all |
members of such group for every tax year such group is in |
existence, but shall not apply to any taxpayer for any |
period during which that taxpayer is not a member of such |
group. |
(b) Insurance companies. |
(1) In general. Except as otherwise provided by |
paragraph (2), business income of an insurance company for |
a taxable year shall be apportioned to this State by |
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon |
property or risk in this State, and the denominator of |
which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon |
property or risk everywhere. For purposes of this |
subsection, the term "direct premiums written" means the |
total amount of direct premiums written, assessments and |
annuity considerations as reported for the taxable year on |
the annual statement filed by the company with the |
Illinois Director of Insurance in the form approved by the |
National Convention of Insurance Commissioners or such |
other form as may be prescribed in lieu thereof. |
(2) Reinsurance. If the principal source of premiums |
written by an insurance company consists of premiums for |
reinsurance accepted by it, the business income of such |
|
company shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying |
such income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the |
sum of (i) direct premiums written for insurance upon |
property or risk in this State, plus (ii) premiums written |
for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk in |
this State, and the denominator of which is the sum of |
(iii) direct premiums written for insurance upon property |
or risk everywhere, plus (iv) premiums written for |
reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk |
everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, premiums |
written for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or |
risk in this State, whether or not otherwise determinable, |
may, at the election of the company, be determined on the |
basis of the proportion which premiums written for |
reinsurance accepted from companies commercially domiciled |
in Illinois bears to premiums written for reinsurance |
accepted from all sources, or, alternatively, in the |
proportion which the sum of the direct premiums written |
for insurance upon property or risk in this State by each |
ceding company from which reinsurance is accepted bears to |
the sum of the total direct premiums written by each such |
ceding company for the taxable year. The election made by |
a company under this paragraph for its first taxable year |
ending on or after December 31, 2011, shall be binding for |
that company for that taxable year and for all subsequent |
taxable years, and may be altered only with the written |
|
permission of the Department, which shall not be |
unreasonably withheld. |
(c) Financial organizations. |
(1) In general. For taxable years ending before |
December 31, 2008, business income of a financial |
organization shall be apportioned to this State by |
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is its business income from sources within this |
State, and the denominator of which is its business income |
from all sources. For the purposes of this subsection, the |
business income of a financial organization from sources |
within this State is the sum of the amounts referred to in |
subparagraphs (A) through (E) following, but excluding the |
adjusted income of an international banking facility as |
determined in paragraph (2): |
(A) Fees, commissions or other compensation for |
financial services rendered within this State; |
(B) Gross profits from trading in stocks, bonds or |
other securities managed within this State; |
(C) Dividends, and interest from Illinois |
customers, which are received within this State; |
(D) Interest charged to customers at places of |
business maintained within this State for carrying |
debit balances of margin accounts, without deduction |
of any costs incurred in carrying such accounts; and |
(E) Any other gross income resulting from the |
|
operation as a financial organization within this |
State. |
In computing the amounts referred to in paragraphs (A) |
through (E) of this subsection, any amount received by a |
member of an affiliated group (determined under Section |
1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code but without reference |
to whether any such corporation is an "includible |
corporation" under Section 1504(b) of the Internal Revenue |
Code) from another member of such group shall be included |
only to the extent such amount exceeds expenses of the |
recipient directly related thereto. |
(2) International Banking Facility. For taxable years |
ending before December 31, 2008: |
(A) Adjusted Income. The adjusted income of an |
international banking facility is its income reduced |
by the amount of the floor amount. |
(B) Floor Amount. The floor amount shall be the |
amount, if any, determined by multiplying the income |
of the international banking facility by a fraction, |
not greater than one, which is determined as follows: |
(i) The numerator shall be: |
The average aggregate, determined on a |
quarterly basis, of the financial organization's |
loans to banks in foreign countries, to foreign |
domiciled borrowers (except where secured |
primarily by real estate) and to foreign |
|
governments and other foreign official |
institutions, as reported for its branches, |
agencies and offices within the state on its |
"Consolidated Report of Condition", Schedule A, |
Lines 2.c., 5.b., and 7.a., which was filed with |
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and |
other regulatory authorities, for the year 1980, |
minus |
The average aggregate, determined on a |
quarterly basis, of such loans (other than loans |
of an international banking facility), as reported |
by the financial institution for its branches, |
agencies and offices within the state, on the |
corresponding Schedule and lines of the |
Consolidated Report of Condition for the current |
taxable year, provided, however, that in no case |
shall the amount determined in this clause (the |
subtrahend) exceed the amount determined in the |
preceding clause (the minuend); and |
(ii) the denominator shall be the average |
aggregate, determined on a quarterly basis, of the |
international banking facility's loans to banks in |
foreign countries, to foreign domiciled borrowers |
(except where secured primarily by real estate) |
and to foreign governments and other foreign |
official institutions, which were recorded in its |
|
financial accounts for the current taxable year. |
(C) Change to Consolidated Report of Condition and |
in Qualification. In the event the Consolidated Report |
of Condition which is filed with the Federal Deposit |
Insurance Corporation and other regulatory authorities |
is altered so that the information required for |
determining the floor amount is not found on Schedule |
A, lines 2.c., 5.b. and 7.a., the financial |
institution shall notify the Department and the |
Department may, by regulations or otherwise, prescribe |
or authorize the use of an alternative source for such |
information. The financial institution shall also |
notify the Department should its international banking |
facility fail to qualify as such, in whole or in part, |
or should there be any amendment or change to the |
Consolidated Report of Condition, as originally filed, |
to the extent such amendment or change alters the |
information used in determining the floor amount. |
(3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, |
2008, the business income of a financial organization |
shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying such |
income by a fraction, the numerator of which is its gross |
receipts from sources in this State or otherwise |
attributable to this State's marketplace and the |
denominator of which is its gross receipts everywhere |
during the taxable year. "Gross receipts" for purposes of |
|
this subparagraph (3) means gross income, including net |
taxable gain on disposition of assets, including |
securities and money market instruments, when derived from |
transactions and activities in the regular course of the |
financial organization's trade or business. The following |
examples are illustrative: |
(i) Receipts from the lease or rental of real or |
tangible personal property are in this State if the |
property is located in this State during the rental |
period. Receipts from the lease or rental of tangible |
personal property that is characteristically moving |
property, including, but not limited to, motor |
vehicles, rolling stock, aircraft, vessels, or mobile |
equipment are from sources in this State to the extent |
that the property is used in this State. |
(ii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on |
disposition, and other receipts from assets in the |
nature of loans that are secured primarily by real |
estate or tangible personal property are from sources |
in this State if the security is located in this State. |
(iii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on |
disposition, and other receipts from consumer loans |
that are not secured by real or tangible personal |
property are from sources in this State if the debtor |
is a resident of this State. |
(iv) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on |
|
disposition, and other receipts from commercial loans |
and installment obligations that are not secured by |
real or tangible personal property are from sources in |
this State if the proceeds of the loan are to be |
applied in this State. If it cannot be determined |
where the funds are to be applied, the income and |
receipts are from sources in this State if the office |
of the borrower from which the loan was negotiated in |
the regular course of business is located in this |
State. If the location of this office cannot be |
determined, the income and receipts shall be excluded |
from the numerator and denominator of the sales |
factor. |
(v) Interest income, fees, gains on disposition, |
service charges, merchant discount income, and other |
receipts from credit card receivables are from sources |
in this State if the card charges are regularly billed |
to a customer in this State. |
(vi) Receipts from the performance of services, |
including, but not limited to, fiduciary, advisory, |
and brokerage services, are in this State if the |
services are received in this State within the meaning |
of subparagraph (a)(3)(C-5)(iv) of this Section. |
(vii) Receipts from the issuance of travelers |
checks and money orders are from sources in this State |
if the checks and money orders are issued from a |
|
location within this State. |
(viii) For tax years ending before December 31, |
2024, receipts Receipts from investment assets and |
activities and trading assets and activities are |
included in the receipts factor as follows: |
(1) Interest, dividends, net gains (but not |
less than zero) and other income from investment |
assets and activities from trading assets and |
activities shall be included in the receipts |
factor. Investment assets and activities and |
trading assets and activities include, but are not |
limited to: investment securities; trading account |
assets; federal funds; securities purchased and |
sold under agreements to resell or repurchase; |
options; futures contracts; forward contracts; |
notional principal contracts such as swaps; |
equities; and foreign currency transactions. With |
respect to the investment and trading assets and |
activities described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) |
of this paragraph, the receipts factor shall |
include the amounts described in such |
subparagraphs. |
(A) The receipts factor shall include the |
amount by which interest from federal funds |
sold and securities purchased under resale |
agreements exceeds interest expense on federal |
|
funds purchased and securities sold under |
repurchase agreements. |
(B) The receipts factor shall include the |
amount by which interest, dividends, gains and |
other income from trading assets and |
activities, including, but not limited to, |
assets and activities in the matched book, in |
the arbitrage book, and foreign currency |
transactions, exceed amounts paid in lieu of |
interest, amounts paid in lieu of dividends, |
and losses from such assets and activities. |
(2) The numerator of the receipts factor |
includes interest, dividends, net gains (but not |
less than zero), and other income from investment |
assets and activities and from trading assets and |
activities described in paragraph (1) of this |
subsection that are attributable to this State. |
(A) The amount of interest, dividends, net |
gains (but not less than zero), and other |
income from investment assets and activities |
in the investment account to be attributed to |
this State and included in the numerator is |
determined by multiplying all such income from |
such assets and activities by a fraction, the |
numerator of which is the gross income from |
such assets and activities which are properly |
|
assigned to a fixed place of business of the |
taxpayer within this State and the denominator |
of which is the gross income from all such |
assets and activities. |
(B) The amount of interest from federal |
funds sold and purchased and from securities |
purchased under resale agreements and |
securities sold under repurchase agreements |
attributable to this State and included in the |
numerator is determined by multiplying the |
amount described in subparagraph (A) of |
paragraph (1) of this subsection from such |
funds and such securities by a fraction, the |
numerator of which is the gross income from |
such funds and such securities which are |
properly assigned to a fixed place of business |
of the taxpayer within this State and the |
denominator of which is the gross income from |
all such funds and such securities. |
(C) The amount of interest, dividends, |
gains, and other income from trading assets |
and activities, including, but not limited to, |
assets and activities in the matched book, in |
the arbitrage book and foreign currency |
transactions (but excluding amounts described |
in subparagraphs (A) or (B) of this |
|
paragraph), attributable to this State and |
included in the numerator is determined by |
multiplying the amount described in |
subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of this |
subsection by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the gross income from such trading |
assets and activities which are properly |
assigned to a fixed place of business of the |
taxpayer within this State and the denominator |
of which is the gross income from all such |
assets and activities. |
(D) Properly assigned, for purposes of |
this paragraph (2) of this subsection, means |
the investment or trading asset or activity is |
assigned to the fixed place of business with |
which it has a preponderance of substantive |
contacts. An investment or trading asset or |
activity assigned by the taxpayer to a fixed |
place of business without the State shall be |
presumed to have been properly assigned if: |
(i) the taxpayer has assigned, in the |
regular course of its business, such asset |
or activity on its records to a fixed |
place of business consistent with federal |
or state regulatory requirements; |
(ii) such assignment on its records is |
|
based upon substantive contacts of the |
asset or activity to such fixed place of |
business; and |
(iii) the taxpayer uses such records |
reflecting assignment of such assets or |
activities for the filing of all state and |
local tax returns for which an assignment |
of such assets or activities to a fixed |
place of business is required. |
(E) The presumption of proper assignment |
of an investment or trading asset or activity |
provided in subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2) |
of this subsection may be rebutted upon a |
showing by the Department, supported by a |
preponderance of the evidence, that the |
preponderance of substantive contacts |
regarding such asset or activity did not occur |
at the fixed place of business to which it was |
assigned on the taxpayer's records. If the |
fixed place of business that has a |
preponderance of substantive contacts cannot |
be determined for an investment or trading |
asset or activity to which the presumption in |
subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2) of this |
subsection does not apply or with respect to |
which that presumption has been rebutted, that |
|
asset or activity is properly assigned to the |
state in which the taxpayer's commercial |
domicile is located. For purposes of this |
subparagraph (E), it shall be presumed, |
subject to rebuttal, that taxpayer's |
commercial domicile is in the state of the |
United States or the District of Columbia to |
which the greatest number of employees are |
regularly connected with the management of the |
investment or trading income or out of which |
they are working, irrespective of where the |
services of such employees are performed, as |
of the last day of the taxable year. |
(ix) For tax years ending on or after December 31, |
2024, receipts from investment assets and activities |
and trading assets and activities are included in the |
receipts factor as follows: |
(1) Interest, dividends, net gains (but not |
less than zero), and other income from investment |
assets and activities from trading assets and |
activities shall be included in the receipts |
factor. Investment assets and activities and |
trading assets and activities include, but are not |
limited to the following: investment securities; |
trading account assets; federal funds; securities |
purchased and sold under agreements to resell or |
|
repurchase; options; futures contracts; forward |
contracts; notional principal contracts, such as |
swaps; equities; and foreign currency |
transactions. With respect to the investment and |
trading assets and activities described in |
subparagraphs (A) and (B) of this paragraph, the |
receipts factor shall include the amounts |
described in those subparagraphs. |
(A) The receipts factor shall include the |
amount by which interest from federal funds |
sold and securities purchased under resale |
agreements exceeds interest expense on federal |
funds purchased and securities sold under |
repurchase agreements. |
(B) The receipts factor shall include the |
amount by which interest, dividends, gains and |
other income from trading assets and |
activities, including, but not limited to, |
assets and activities in the matched book, in |
the arbitrage book, and foreign currency |
transactions, exceed amounts paid in lieu of |
interest, amounts paid in lieu of dividends, |
and losses from such assets and activities. |
(2) The numerator of the receipts factor |
includes interest, dividends, net gains (but not |
less than zero), and other income from investment |
|
assets and activities and from trading assets and |
activities described in paragraph (1) of this |
subsection that are attributable to this State. |
(A) The amount of interest, dividends, net |
gains (but not less than zero), and other |
income from investment assets and activities |
in the investment account to be attributed to |
this State and included in the numerator is |
determined by multiplying all of the income |
from those assets and activities by a |
fraction, the numerator of which is the total |
receipts included in the numerator pursuant to |
items (i) through (vii) of this subparagraph |
(3) and the denominator of which is all total |
receipts included in the denominator, other |
than interest, dividends, net gains (but not |
less than zero), and other income from |
investment assets and activities and trading |
assets and activities. |
(B) The amount of interest from federal |
funds sold and purchased and from securities |
purchased under resale agreements and |
securities sold under repurchase agreements |
attributable to this State and included in the |
numerator is determined by multiplying the |
amount described in subparagraph (A) of |
|
paragraph (1) of this subsection from such |
funds and such securities by a fraction, the |
numerator of which is the total receipts |
included in the numerator pursuant to items |
(i) through (vii) of this subparagraph (3) and |
the denominator of which is all total receipts |
included in the denominator, other than |
interest, dividends, net gains (but not less |
than zero), and other income from investment |
assets and activities and trading assets and |
activities. |
(C) The amount of interest, dividends, |
gains, and other income from trading assets |
and activities, including, but not limited to, |
assets and activities in the matched book, in |
the arbitrage book and foreign currency |
transactions (but excluding amounts described |
in subparagraphs (A) or (B) of this |
paragraph), attributable to this State and |
included in the numerator is determined by |
multiplying the amount described in |
subparagraph (B) of paragraph (1) of this |
subsection by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the total receipts included in the |
numerator pursuant to items (i) through (vii) |
of this subparagraph (3) and the denominator |
|
of which is all total receipts included in the |
denominator, other than interest, dividends, |
net gains (but not less than zero), and other |
income from investment assets and activities |
and trading assets and activities. |
(4) (Blank). |
(5) (Blank). |
(c-1) Federally regulated exchanges. For taxable years |
ending on or after December 31, 2012, business income of a |
federally regulated exchange shall, at the option of the |
federally regulated exchange, be apportioned to this State by |
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of which |
is its business income from sources within this State, and the |
denominator of which is its business income from all sources. |
For purposes of this subsection, the business income within |
this State of a federally regulated exchange is the sum of the |
following: |
(1) Receipts attributable to transactions executed on |
a physical trading floor if that physical trading floor is |
located in this State. |
(2) Receipts attributable to all other matching, |
execution, or clearing transactions, including without |
limitation receipts from the provision of matching, |
execution, or clearing services to another entity, |
multiplied by (i) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2012 but before December 31, 2013, 63.77%; |
|
and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after December 31, |
2013, 27.54%. |
(3) All other receipts not governed by subparagraphs |
(1) or (2) of this subsection (c-1), to the extent the |
receipts would be characterized as "sales in this State" |
under item (3) of subsection (a) of this Section. |
"Federally regulated exchange" means (i) a "registered |
entity" within the meaning of 7 U.S.C. Section 1a(40)(A), (B), |
or (C), (ii) an "exchange" or "clearing agency" within the |
meaning of 15 U.S.C. Section 78c (a)(1) or (23), (iii) any such |
entities regulated under any successor regulatory structure to |
the foregoing, and (iv) all taxpayers who are members of the |
same unitary business group as a federally regulated exchange, |
determined without regard to the prohibition in Section |
1501(a)(27) of this Act against including in a unitary |
business group taxpayers who are ordinarily required to |
apportion business income under different subsections of this |
Section; provided that this subparagraph (iv) shall apply only |
if 50% or more of the business receipts of the unitary business |
group determined by application of this subparagraph (iv) for |
the taxable year are attributable to the matching, execution, |
or clearing of transactions conducted by an entity described |
in subparagraph (i), (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph. |
In no event shall the Illinois apportionment percentage |
computed in accordance with this subsection (c-1) for any |
taxpayer for any tax year be less than the Illinois |
|
apportionment percentage computed under this subsection (c-1) |
for that taxpayer for the first full tax year ending on or |
after December 31, 2013 for which this subsection (c-1) |
applied to the taxpayer. |
(d) Transportation services. For taxable years ending |
before December 31, 2008, business income derived from |
furnishing transportation services shall be apportioned to |
this State in accordance with paragraphs (1) and (2): |
(1) Such business income (other than that derived from |
transportation by pipeline) shall be apportioned to this |
State by multiplying such income by a fraction, the |
numerator of which is the revenue miles of the person in |
this State, and the denominator of which is the revenue |
miles of the person everywhere. For purposes of this |
paragraph, a revenue mile is the transportation of 1 |
passenger or 1 net ton of freight the distance of 1 mile |
for a consideration. Where a person is engaged in the |
transportation of both passengers and freight, the |
fraction above referred to shall be determined by means of |
an average of the passenger revenue mile fraction and the |
freight revenue mile fraction, weighted to reflect the |
person's |
(A) relative railway operating income from total |
passenger and total freight service, as reported to |
the Interstate Commerce Commission, in the case of |
transportation by railroad, and |
|
(B) relative gross receipts from passenger and |
freight transportation, in case of transportation |
other than by railroad. |
(2) Such business income derived from transportation |
by pipeline shall be apportioned to this State by |
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and |
the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the |
person everywhere. For the purposes of this paragraph, a |
revenue mile is the transportation by pipeline of 1 barrel |
of oil, 1,000 cubic feet of gas, or of any specified |
quantity of any other substance, the distance of 1 mile |
for a consideration. |
(3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, |
2008, business income derived from providing |
transportation services other than airline services shall |
be apportioned to this State by using a fraction, (a) the |
numerator of which shall be (i) all receipts from any |
movement or shipment of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or |
any other substance (other than by airline) that both |
originates and terminates in this State, plus (ii) that |
portion of the person's gross receipts from movements or |
shipments of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other |
substance (other than by airline) that originates in one |
state or jurisdiction and terminates in another state or |
jurisdiction, that is determined by the ratio that the |
|
miles traveled in this State bears to total miles |
everywhere and (b) the denominator of which shall be all |
revenue derived from the movement or shipment of people, |
goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other substance (other than |
by airline). Where a taxpayer is engaged in the |
transportation of both passengers and freight, the |
fraction above referred to shall first be determined |
separately for passenger miles and freight miles. Then an |
average of the passenger miles fraction and the freight |
miles fraction shall be weighted to reflect the |
taxpayer's: |
(A) relative railway operating income from total |
passenger and total freight service, as reported to |
the Surface Transportation Board, in the case of |
transportation by railroad; and |
(B) relative gross receipts from passenger and |
freight transportation, in case of transportation |
other than by railroad. |
(4) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, |
2008, business income derived from furnishing airline |
transportation services shall be apportioned to this State |
by multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of |
which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and |
the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the |
person everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, a |
revenue mile is the transportation of one passenger or one |
|
net ton of freight the distance of one mile for a |
consideration. If a person is engaged in the |
transportation of both passengers and freight, the |
fraction above referred to shall be determined by means of |
an average of the passenger revenue mile fraction and the |
freight revenue mile fraction, weighted to reflect the |
person's relative gross receipts from passenger and |
freight airline transportation. |
(e) Combined apportionment. Where 2 or more persons are |
engaged in a unitary business as described in subsection |
(a)(27) of Section 1501, a part of which is conducted in this |
State by one or more members of the group, the business income |
attributable to this State by any such member or members shall |
be apportioned by means of the combined apportionment method. |
(f) Alternative allocation. If the allocation and |
apportionment provisions of subsections (a) through (e) and of |
subsection (h) do not, for taxable years ending before |
December 31, 2008, fairly represent the extent of a person's |
business activity in this State, or, for taxable years ending |
on or after December 31, 2008, fairly represent the market for |
the person's goods, services, or other sources of business |
income, the person may petition for, or the Director may, |
without a petition, permit or require, in respect of all or any |
part of the person's business activity, if reasonable: |
(1) Separate accounting; |
(2) The exclusion of any one or more factors; |
|
(3) The inclusion of one or more additional factors |
which will fairly represent the person's business |
activities or market in this State; or |
(4) The employment of any other method to effectuate |
an equitable allocation and apportionment of the person's |
business income. |
(g) Cross reference. For allocation of business income by |
residents, see Section 301(a). |
(h) For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998, the |
apportionment factor of persons who apportion their business |
income to this State under subsection (a) shall be equal to: |
(1) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998 |
and before December 31, 1999, 16 2/3% of the property |
factor plus 16 2/3% of the payroll factor plus 66 2/3% of |
the sales factor; |
(2) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1999 |
and before December 31, 2000, 8 1/3% of the property |
factor plus 8 1/3% of the payroll factor plus 83 1/3% of |
the sales factor; |
(3) for tax years ending on or after December 31, |
2000, the sales factor. |
If, in any tax year ending on or after December 31, 1998 and |
before December 31, 2000, the denominator of the payroll, |
property, or sales factor is zero, the apportionment factor |
computed in paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection for that |
year shall be divided by an amount equal to 100% minus the |
|
percentage weight given to each factor whose denominator is |
equal to zero. |

Sec. 218. Credit for student-assistance contributions. |
(a) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2009 |
and on or before December 31, 2029 2024 , each taxpayer who, |
during the taxable year, makes a contribution (i) to a |
specified individual College Savings Pool Account under |
Section 16.5 of the State Treasurer Act or (ii) to the Illinois |
Prepaid Tuition Trust Fund in an amount matching a |
contribution made in the same taxable year by an employee of |
the taxpayer to that Account or Fund is entitled to a credit |
against the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of |
Section 201 in an amount equal to 25% of that matching |
contribution, but not to exceed $500 per contributing employee |
per taxable year. |
(b) For taxable years ending before December 31, 2023, for |
partners, shareholders of Subchapter S corporations, and |
|
owners of limited liability companies, if the liability |
company is treated as a partnership for purposes of federal |
and State income taxation, there is allowed a credit under |
this Section to be determined in accordance with the |
determination of income and distributive share of income under |
Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue |
Code. For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2023, |
partners and shareholders of subchapter S corporations are |
entitled to a credit under this Section as provided in Section |
251. |
(c) The credit may not be carried back. If the amount of |
the credit exceeds the tax liability for the year, the excess |
may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the |
5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The tax |
credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is |
a tax liability. If there are credits for more than one year |
that are available to offset a liability, the earlier credit |
shall be applied first. |
(d) A taxpayer claiming the credit under this Section must |
maintain and record any information that the Illinois Student |
Assistance Commission, the Office of the State Treasurer, or |
the Department may require regarding the matching contribution |
for which the credit is claimed. |

Sec. 227. Adoption credit. |
(a) Beginning with tax years ending on or after December |
31, 2018 and ending with tax years ending on or before December |
31, 2029 , in the case of an individual taxpayer there shall be |
allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) |
and (b) of Section 201 in an amount equal to the amount of the |
federal adoption tax credit received pursuant to Section 23 of |
the Internal Revenue Code with respect to the adoption of a |
qualifying dependent child, subject to the limitations set |
forth in this subsection and subsection (b). The aggregate |
amount of qualified adoption expenses which may be taken into |
account under this Section for all taxable years with respect |
to the adoption of a qualifying dependent child by the |
taxpayer shall not exceed $2,000 ($1,000 in the case of a |
married individual filing a separate return). The credit under |
this Section shall be allowed: (i) in the case of any expense |
paid or incurred before the taxable year in which such |
adoption becomes final, for the taxable year following the |
taxable year during which such expense is paid or incurred, |
and (ii) in the case of an expense paid or incurred during or |
after the taxable year in which such adoption becomes final, |
for the taxable year in which such expense is paid or incurred. |
No credit shall be allowed under this Section for any expense |
to the extent that funds for such expense are received under |
any federal, State, or local program. For purposes of this |
Section, spouses filing a joint return shall be considered one |
|
taxpayer. |
For a non-resident or part-year resident, the amount of |
the credit under this Section shall be in proportion to the |
amount of income attributable to this State. |
(b) Increased credit amount for resident children. With |
respect to the adoption of an eligible child who is at least |
one year old and resides in Illinois at the time the expenses |
are paid or incurred, subsection (a) shall be applied by |
substituting $5,000 ($2,500 in the case of a married |
individual filing a separate return) for $2,000. |
(c) In no event shall a credit under this Section reduce |
the taxpayer's liability to less than zero. If the amount of |
the credit exceeds the income tax liability for the applicable |
tax year, the excess may be carried forward and applied to the |
tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess |
credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest year |
for which there is a tax liability. If there are credits from |
more than one year that are available to offset a liability, |
the earlier credit shall be applied first. |
(d) The term "qualified adoption expenses" shall have the |
same meaning as under Section 23(d) of the Internal Revenue |
Code. |

Section 95-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by changing |
Section 20-130 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/20-130) |
Sec. 20-130. Distribution of taxes in counties of less |
than 3,000,000; return of erroneous distribution. |
(a) All distributions of taxes collected and interest |
earned thereon by a county on behalf of taxing districts must |
be made by the county treasurer, in counties with less than |
3,000,000 inhabitants, within 30 days after the due date and |
at 30 days intervals thereafter, unless the amount to be |
distributed is less than $5. The county treasurer shall |
distribute the taxes collected at the next 30-day interval if |
the taxes collected are $5 or more. If the tax collections for |
a taxing district are less than $5 for 3 consecutive 30-day |
intervals, the county treasurer shall automatically distribute |
the taxes collected to the unit of local government on the |
third 30-day interval. All interest earned by a county on |
behalf of taxing districts must be distributed by the county |
treasurer, in counties with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants, |
no later than the last distribution of taxes. The county |
treasurer shall determine the manner in which all |
distributions under this Section are to be made. The manner of |
distribution may include, but is not limited to, check or |
electronic funds transfer. |
(b) Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, if a |
|
county makes an erroneous distribution of taxes collected and |
interest earned thereon, upon majority vote of the governing |
board of the taxing district that received the erroneous |
distribution, the taxing district shall return the funds to |
the county treasurer. |

child who is younger than 12 years of age as of the last day of |
the taxable year is entitled to a credit against the tax |
imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201. For tax |

year. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2025, the |
amount of the credit shall be equal to 40% of the credit |
allowed to the taxpayer under Section 212 of this Act for that |
taxable year. |
|
(b) If the amount of the credit exceeds the income tax |
liability for the applicable tax year, then the excess credit |
shall be refunded the taxpayer. The amount of the refund under |
this Section shall not be included in the taxpayer's income or |
resources for the purposes of determining eligibility or |
benefit level in any means-tested benefit program administered |
by a governmental entity unless required by federal law. |
(c) The Department may adopt rules to carry out the |
provisions of this Section. |
(d) As used in this Section, "qualifying child" has the |
meaning given to that term in Section 152 of the Internal |

Section 105-5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by |
changing Section 207 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 5/207) (from Ch. 120, par. 2-207) |
Sec. 207. Net Losses. |
(a) If after applying all of the (i) modifications |
provided for in paragraph (2) of Section 203(b), paragraph (2) |
of Section 203(c) and paragraph (2) of Section 203(d) and (ii) |
the allocation and apportionment provisions of Article 3 of |
|
this Act and subsection (c) of this Section, the taxpayer's |
net income results in a loss; |
(1) for any taxable year ending prior to December 31, |
1999, such loss shall be allowed as a carryover or |
carryback deduction in the manner allowed under Section |
172 of the Internal Revenue Code; |
(2) for any taxable year ending on or after December |
31, 1999 and prior to December 31, 2003, such loss shall be |
allowed as a carryback to each of the 2 taxable years |
preceding the taxable year of such loss and shall be a net |
operating loss carryover to each of the 20 taxable years |
following the taxable year of such loss; |
(3) for any taxable year ending on or after December |
31, 2003 and prior to December 31, 2021, such loss shall be |
allowed as a net operating loss carryover to each of the 12 |
taxable years following the taxable year of such loss, |
except as provided in subsection (d); and |
(4) for any taxable year ending on or after December |
31, 2021, and for any net loss incurred in a taxable year |
prior to a taxable year ending on or after December 31, |
2021 for which the statute of limitation for utilization |
of such net loss has not expired, such loss shall be |
allowed as a net operating loss carryover to each of the 20 |
taxable years following the taxable year of such loss, |
except as provided in subsection (d). |
(a-5) Election to relinquish carryback and order of |
|
application of losses. |
(A) For losses incurred in tax years ending prior |
to December 31, 2003, the taxpayer may elect to |
relinquish the entire carryback period with respect to |
such loss. Such election shall be made in the form and |
manner prescribed by the Department and shall be made |
by the due date (including extensions of time) for |
filing the taxpayer's return for the taxable year in |
which such loss is incurred, and such election, once |
made, shall be irrevocable. |
(B) The entire amount of such loss shall be |
carried to the earliest taxable year to which such |
loss may be carried. The amount of such loss which |
shall be carried to each of the other taxable years |
shall be the excess, if any, of the amount of such loss |
over the sum of the deductions for carryback or |
carryover of such loss allowable for each of the prior |
taxable years to which such loss may be carried. |
(b) Any loss determined under subsection (a) of this |
Section must be carried back or carried forward in the same |
manner for purposes of subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 |
of this Act as for purposes of subsections (c) and (d) of |
Section 201 of this Act. |
(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, for |
each taxable year ending on or after December 31, 2008, for |
purposes of computing the loss for the taxable year under |
|
subsection (a) of this Section and the deduction taken into |
account for the taxable year for a net operating loss |
carryover under paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of subsection (a) |
of this Section, the loss and net operating loss carryover |
shall be reduced in an amount equal to the reduction to the net |
operating loss and net operating loss carryover to the taxable |
year, respectively, required under Section 108(b)(2)(A) of the |
Internal Revenue Code, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator |
of which is the amount of discharge of indebtedness income |
that is excluded from gross income for the taxable year (but |
only if the taxable year ends on or after December 31, 2008) |
under Section 108(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and that |
would have been allocated and apportioned to this State under |
Article 3 of this Act but for that exclusion, and the |
denominator of which is the total amount of discharge of |
indebtedness income excluded from gross income under Section |
108(a) of the Internal Revenue Code for the taxable year. The |
reduction required under this subsection (c) shall be made |
after the determination of Illinois net income for the taxable |
year in which the indebtedness is discharged. |
(d) In the case of a corporation (other than a Subchapter S |
corporation) : , |
(1) no carryover deduction shall be allowed under this |
Section for any taxable year ending after December 31, |
2010 and prior to December 31, 2012 ; , and |
(2) no carryover deduction shall exceed $100,000 for |
|
any taxable year ending on or after December 31, 2012 and |
prior to December 31, 2014 and for any taxable year ending |
on or after December 31, 2021 and prior to December 31, |
2024; and |
(3) no carryover deduction shall exceed $500,000 for |
any taxable year ending on or after December 31, 2024 and |
prior to December 31, 2027. |
For the provided that, for purposes of determining the |
taxable years to which a net loss may be carried under |
subsection (a) of this Section, no taxable year for which a |
deduction is disallowed under this subsection, or for which |
the deduction would exceed $100,000 or $500,000, as |
applicable, if not for this subsection, shall be counted. |
(e) In the case of a residual interest holder in a real |
estate mortgage investment conduit subject to Section 860E of |
the Internal Revenue Code, the net loss in subsection (a) |
shall be equal to: |
(1) the amount computed under subsection (a), without |
regard to this subsection (e), or if that amount is |
positive, zero; |
(2) minus an amount equal to the amount computed under |
subsection (a), without regard to this subsection (e), |
minus the amount that would be computed under subsection |
(a) if the taxpayer's federal taxable income were computed |
without regard to Section 860E of the Internal Revenue |
Code and without regard to this subsection (e). |
|
The modification in this subsection (e) is exempt from the |
provisions of Section 250. |

ARTICLE 110. |
Section 110-5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing |
Section 9 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 105/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9) |
Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, |
and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency |
of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect |
the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the |
amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time |
when he is required to file his return for the period during |
which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to |
January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 |
per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to |
reimburse the retailer for expenses incurred in collecting the |
tax, keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting |
the tax and supplying data to the Department on request. |
Beginning with returns due on or after January 1, 2025, the |
discount allowed in this Section, the Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use |
Tax Act, including any local tax administered by the |
|
Department and reported on the same return, shall not exceed |
$1,000 per month in the aggregate for returns other than |
transaction returns filed during the month. When determining |
the discount allowed under this Section, retailers shall |
include the amount of tax that would have been due at the 6.25% |
rate but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales tax holiday items |
under Public Act 102-700. The discount under this Section is |
not allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on aviation |
fuel that is subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. When determining the |
discount allowed under this Section, retailers shall include |
the amount of tax that would have been due at the 1% rate but |
for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700. In the case |
of retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by |
transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount |
shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when |
such retailer files his periodic return , but, beginning with |
returns due on or after January 1, 2025, the discount allowed |
under this Section and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
including any local tax administered by the Department and |
reported on the same transaction return, shall not exceed |
$1,000 per month for all transaction returns filed during the |
month . The discount allowed under this Section is allowed only |
for returns that are filed in the manner required by this Act. |
The Department may disallow the discount for retailers whose |
certificate of registration is revoked at the time the return |
|
is filed, but only if the Department's decision to revoke the |
certificate of registration has become final. A retailer need |
not remit that part of any tax collected by him to the extent |
that he is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed by |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the sale of |
the same property. |
Where such tangible personal property is sold under a |
conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale |
wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is |
extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is |
filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of |
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
Except as provided in this Section, on or before the |
twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file |
a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return shall |
be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and shall |
furnish such information as the Department may reasonably |
require. The return shall include the gross receipts on food |
for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises |
where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, food |
consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft drinks, |
and food that has been prepared for immediate consumption) |
|
which were received during the preceding calendar month, |
quarter, or year, as appropriate, and upon which tax would |
have been due but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act |
102-700. The return shall also include the amount of tax that |
would have been due on food for human consumption that is to be |
consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption) but for the 0% rate imposed under |
Public Act 102-700. |
On and after January 1, 2018, except for returns required |
to be filed prior to January 1, 2023 for motor vehicles, |
watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required to be |
registered with an agency of this State, with respect to |
retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, |
all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. On and after January 1, 2023, with |
respect to retailers whose annual gross receipts average |
$20,000 or more, all returns required to be filed pursuant to |
this Act, including, but not limited to, returns for motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State, shall be filed |
electronically. Retailers who demonstrate that they do not |
have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in filing |
electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
|
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before |
the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail in this State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month from sales of |
tangible personal property by him during such preceding |
calendar month, including receipts from charge and time |
sales, but less all deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; |
5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Each retailer required or authorized to collect the tax |
imposed by this Act on aviation fuel sold at retail in this |
State during the preceding calendar month shall, instead of |
reporting and paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise |
|
required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate |
aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the |
return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section. |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers collecting tax on aviation fuel shall file |
all aviation fuel tax returns and shall make all aviation fuel |
tax payments by electronic means in the manner and form |
required by the Department. For purposes of this Section, |
"aviation fuel" means jet fuel and aviation gasoline. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
|
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" means the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
|
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, the |
Service Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the preceding 4 |
complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the |
Department each month by the 20th day of the month next |
following the month during which such tax liability is |
incurred and shall make payments to the Department on or |
before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during |
which such liability is incurred. On and after October 1, |
2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was |
$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began |
|
prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month |
or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the |
average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department |
for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the |
month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability |
in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985, and |
prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during |
which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment |
shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability |
for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or |
after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal |
to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of |
the preceding year. If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and |
prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
|
month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar |
month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount |
of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the |
final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. |
Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for change in such taxpayer's reporting status. On |
and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such |
|
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status |
unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not |
likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall |
be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
1.25% in Public Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not |
occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, |
2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's |
liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" |
shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public |
Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. |
Quarter monthly payment status shall be determined under this |
paragraph as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 |
on food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the |
premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, |
food consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft |
drinks, and food that has been prepared for immediate |
consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly payments |
|
due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and through |
June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year" shall be determined as |
if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 had not |
occurred. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at |
the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the |
taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the |
difference between the minimum amount due and the amount of |
such quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments |
previously due as provided in this Section. The Department |
shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the |
quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment |
dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly |
basis. |
If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds |
the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the |
Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return, |
the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum |
no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which |
memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department |
in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the |
taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a |
similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
|
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, |
in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be |
prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess |
payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made |
after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued, |
unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made, |
the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax |
liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the |
Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax 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 |
taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall |
be reduced , if necessary, to reflect by 2.1% or 1.75% of the |
difference between the credit taken and that actually due, and |
the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on |
such difference. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to |
the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for |
April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of |
such year; with the return for July, August and September of a |
|
given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the |
return for October, November and December of a given year |
being due by January 20 of the following year. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or |
quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax |
liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the |
case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business |
which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act, |
such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the |
Department not more than one month after discontinuing such |
business. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this |
Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal |
property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be |
prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return |
for each such item of tangible personal property which the |
|
retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a |
retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers |
transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or |
trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or |
trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer |
of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers |
more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer |
to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as |
provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may |
report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor |
vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the |
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means |
a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section |
3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal |
watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the |
business of leasing or renting such items and who, in |
connection with such business, sells any such item to a |
retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to |
meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting |
the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, |
or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the |
|
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form on or before the 20th of the month following the |
month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed |
under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the |
manner and form as required by the Department. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of motor |
vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the |
Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller; |
the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the |
selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such |
other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the |
Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the |
|
Department may reasonably require. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft |
and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the |
name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling |
price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and |
such other information as the Department may reasonably |
require. |
Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later |
than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is |
being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner |
than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting |
return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax |
that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the |
Department by way of the State agency with which, or State |
officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be |
|
titled or registered (if titling or registration is required) |
if the Department and such agency or State officer determine |
that this procedure will expedite the processing of |
applications for title or registration. |
With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer |
shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit |
satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is |
the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the |
Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt |
(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied |
that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser |
may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with |
whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property |
that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in |
support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois |
certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such |
tangible personal property. |
No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this |
Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the |
retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other |
evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration |
is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has |
paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The |
Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the |
mandate of this paragraph. |
If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer |
|
wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment |
of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the |
retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not |
paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact |
of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department |
being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit |
the information required by the transaction reporting return |
and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to |
the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption |
determination, in which event the transaction reporting return |
and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be |
credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account |
with the Department, but without the vendor's 2.1% or 1.75% |
discount provided for in this Section being allowed. When the |
user pays the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the |
tax in the same amount and in the same form in which it would |
be remitted if the tax had been remitted to the Department by |
the retailer. |
Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the |
selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and |
the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal |
property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to |
the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the |
purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When |
filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax |
to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax |
|
so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax |
which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the |
Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax |
to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by |
such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the |
amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no |
deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the |
purchaser. |
Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also |
include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax |
covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible |
personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer, |
but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected |
from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall |
remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such |
return. |
If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the |
Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint |
return which will enable retailers, who are required to file |
returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act, to furnish all the return information required by both |
Acts on the one form. |
Where the retailer has more than one business registered |
with the Department under separate registration under this |
Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a |
single return covering all such registered businesses, but |
|
shall file separate returns for each such registered business. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special |
fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, the net |
revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax |
imposed under this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate on the selling price of tangible personal |
property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a |
retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of this |
State's government. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special |

price of tangible personal property, other than (i) tangible |
personal property which is purchased outside Illinois at |
retail from a retailer and which is titled or registered by an |
agency of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold |
on or after December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel |
only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
|
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuels Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% |
rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any |
month, the tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in |
Section 3-6, is imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the |
Department shall pay 100% of the net revenue realized for that |
month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of sales tax |
holiday items into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of tangible personal property which is |
purchased outside Illinois at retail from a retailer and which |
is titled or registered by an agency of this State's |
government. |
|
Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to |
an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of |
candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had |
been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that |
are now taxed at 6.25%. |
Beginning July 1, 2011, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of sorbents used in Illinois in the |
process of sorbent injection as used to comply with the |
Environmental Protection Act or the federal Clean Air Act, but |
the total payment into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund under this |
Act and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed |
$2,000,000 in any fiscal year. |
Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds |
collected under this Act, the Service Use Tax Act, the Service |
Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an |
amount equal to the average monthly deficit in the Underground |
Storage Tank Fund during the prior year, as certified annually |
by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total |
payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, |
the Service Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and |
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 |
|
in any State fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the |
"average monthly deficit" shall be equal to the difference |
between the average monthly claims for payment by the fund and |
the average monthly revenues deposited into the fund, |
excluding payments made pursuant to this paragraph. |
Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys |
received by the Department under this Act, the Service Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' |
Occupation Tax Act, each month the Department shall deposit |
$500,000 into the State Crime Laboratory Fund. |
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on |
and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in any fiscal |
year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required |
to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax |
Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the |
Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts being hereinafter called |
the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act |
Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois |
Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be |
less than the Annual Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3 |
|
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), an amount equal to the |
difference shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois |
Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant to |
the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the last |
business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount |
required to be deposited into the Build Illinois Bond Account |
in the Build Illinois Fund during such month and (2) the amount |
transferred during such month to the Build Illinois Fund from |
the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less |
than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to |
the difference shall be immediately paid into the Build |
Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided, that in no |
event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso |
result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund |
pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of |
the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual |
Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided, |
that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under |
this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the |
aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture |
securing Bonds issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build |
Illinois Bond Act is sufficient, taking into account any |
future investment income, to fully provide, in accordance with |
such indenture, for the defeasance of or the payment of the |
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds |
|
secured by such indenture and on any Bonds expected to be |
issued thereafter and all fees and costs payable with respect |
thereto, all as certified by the Director of the Bureau of the |
Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If on |
the last business day of any month in which Bonds are |
outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the |
aggregate of the moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond |
Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less |
than the amount required to be transferred in such month from |
the Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond |
Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the |
Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such deficiency |
shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois |
Fund; provided, however, that any amounts paid to the Build |
Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this sentence |
shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence and shall reduce the amount |
otherwise payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence. The moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited |
into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim |
and charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond |
Act. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |

Administration Fund as provided in this Section, the |
Department shall pay each month into the Road Fund the amount |
estimated to represent 80% of the net revenue realized from |
the taxes imposed on motor fuel and gasohol. As used in this |
paragraph "motor fuel" has the meaning given to that term in |
Section 1.1 of the Motor Fuel Tax Law, and "gasohol" has the |
meaning given to that term in Section 3-40 of this Act. |
|
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, 75% thereof shall be paid into the State |
Treasury and 25% shall be reserved in a special account and |
used only for the transfer to the Common School Fund as part of |
the monthly transfer from the General Revenue Fund in |
accordance with Section 8a of the State Finance Act. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon |
certification of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller |
shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall transfer from |
the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax Fund an amount |
equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized under this Act |
for the second preceding month. Beginning April 1, 2000, this |
transfer is no longer required and shall not be made. |
Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue |
collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount |
paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for |
overpayment of liability. |
For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers, |
importers and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail in |
Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may |
assume the responsibility for accounting and paying to the |
Department all tax accruing under this Act with respect to |
such sales, if the retailers who are affected do not make |
written objection to the Department to this arrangement. |

Section 110-10. The Service Use Tax Act is amended by |
changing Section 9 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 110/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.39) |
Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect |
the tax herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount |
of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time when he |
is required to file his return for the period during which such |
tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, |
1990 and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar |
year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the |
serviceman for expenses incurred in collecting the tax, |
keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting the |
tax and supplying data to the Department on request. Beginning |
with returns due on or after January 1, 2025, the vendor's |
discount allowed in this Section, the Retailers' Occupation |
Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Use Tax Act, |
including any local tax administered by the Department and |
reported on the same return, shall not exceed $1,000 per month |
in the aggregate. When determining the discount allowed under |
this Section, servicemen shall include the amount of tax that |
would have been due at the 1% rate but for the 0% rate imposed |
under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly. The |
|
discount under this Section is not allowed for the 1.25% |
portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel that is subject to the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133. The discount allowed under this Section is allowed only |
for returns that are filed in the manner required by this Act. |
The Department may disallow the discount for servicemen whose |
certificate of registration is revoked at the time the return |
is filed, but only if the Department's decision to revoke the |
certificate of registration has become final. A serviceman |
need not remit that part of any tax collected by him to the |
extent that he is required to pay and does pay the tax imposed |
by the Service Occupation Tax Act with respect to his sale of |
service involving the incidental transfer by him of the same |
property. |
Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or |
before the twentieth day of each calendar month, such |
serviceman shall file a return for the preceding calendar |
month in accordance with reasonable Rules and Regulations to |
be promulgated by the Department. Such return shall be filed |
on a form prescribed by the Department and shall contain such |
information as the Department may reasonably require. The |
return shall include the gross receipts which were received |
during the preceding calendar month or quarter on the |
following items upon which tax would have been due but for the |
0% rate imposed under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly: (i) food for human consumption that is to be |
|
consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption); and (ii) food prepared for immediate |
consumption and transferred incident to a sale of service |
subject to this Act or the Service Occupation Tax Act by an |
entity licensed under the Hospital Licensing Act, the Nursing |
Home Care Act, the Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, the |
ID/DD Community Care Act, the MC/DD Act, the Specialized |
Mental Health Rehabilitation Act of 2013, or the Child Care |
Act of 1969, or an entity that holds a permit issued pursuant |
to the Life Care Facilities Act. The return shall also include |
the amount of tax that would have been due on the items listed |
in the previous sentence but for the 0% rate imposed under this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly. |
On and after January 1, 2018, with respect to servicemen |
whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, all |
returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. Servicemen who demonstrate that they do |
not have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in |
filing electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
|
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before |
the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in business as a serviceman in this |
State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month, including |
receipts from charge and time sales, but less all |
deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; |
5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Each serviceman required or authorized to collect the tax |
imposed by this Act on aviation fuel transferred as an |
incident of a sale of service in this State during the |
preceding calendar month shall, instead of reporting and |
paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise required by this |
Section, report and pay such tax on a separate aviation fuel |
tax return. The requirements related to the return shall be as |
otherwise provided in this Section. Notwithstanding any other |
provisions of this Act to the contrary, servicemen collecting |
|
tax on aviation fuel shall file all aviation fuel tax returns |
and shall make all aviation fuel tax payments by electronic |
means in the manner and form required by the Department. For |
purposes of this Section, "aviation fuel" means jet fuel and |
aviation gasoline. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, servicemen subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
|
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" means the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
|
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability |
to the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for April, |
May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year; |
with the return for July, August and September of a given year |
being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for |
October, November and December of a given year being due by |
January 20 of the following year. |
If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly |
or quarterly return and if the serviceman's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the |
case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of |
business which makes him responsible for filing returns under |
|
this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this |
Act with the Department not more than 1 month after |
discontinuing such business. |
Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the |
selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser |
thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds |
the selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman |
shall also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from |
the purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which |
he refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may |
deduct the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the |
purchaser from any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation |
Tax, retailers' occupation tax or use tax which such |
serviceman may be required to pay or remit to the Department, |
as shown by such return, provided that the amount of the tax to |
be deducted shall previously have been remitted to the |
Department by such serviceman. If the serviceman shall not |
previously have remitted the amount of such tax to the |
Department, he shall be entitled to no deduction hereunder |
upon refunding such tax to the purchaser. |
Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also |
include the total tax upon the selling price of tangible |
personal property purchased for use by him as an incident to a |
sale of service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount of |
such tax to the Department when filing such return. |
If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the |
|
Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint |
return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file |
returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax |
Act, to furnish all the return information required by both |
Acts on the one form. |
Where the serviceman has more than one business registered |
with the Department under separate registration hereunder, |
such serviceman shall not file each return that is due as a |
single return covering all such registered businesses, but |
shall file separate returns for each such registered business. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Tax Reform Fund, a special fund in |
the State Treasury, the net revenue realized for the preceding |
month from the 1% tax imposed under this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 20% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate on transfers of tangible personal property, other |
than (i) tangible personal property which is purchased outside |
Illinois at retail from a retailer and which is titled or |
registered by an agency of this State's government and (ii) |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This |
exception for aviation fuel only applies for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
|
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% |
rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. |
Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to |
an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of |
candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had |
been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that |
are now taxed at 6.25%. |
Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds |
collected under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service |
Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an |
|
amount equal to the average monthly deficit in the Underground |
Storage Tank Fund during the prior year, as certified annually |
by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total |
payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, |
the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in |
any State fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the "average |
monthly deficit" shall be equal to the difference between the |
average monthly claims for payment by the fund and the average |
monthly revenues deposited into the fund, excluding payments |
made pursuant to this paragraph. |
Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys |
received by the Department under the Use Tax Act, this Act, the |
Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act, each month the Department shall deposit $500,000 into the |
State Crime Laboratory Fund. |
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on |
and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the |
Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in any fiscal |
year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required |
to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax |
Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the |
|
Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts being hereinafter called |
the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act |
Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois |
Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be |
less than the Annual Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), an amount equal to the |
difference shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois |
Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant to |
the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the last |
business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount |
required to be deposited into the Build Illinois Bond Account |
in the Build Illinois Fund during such month and (2) the amount |
transferred during such month to the Build Illinois Fund from |
the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less |
than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to |
the difference shall be immediately paid into the Build |
Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided, that in no |
event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso |
result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund |
pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of |
the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual |
Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided, |
that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under |
this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the |
|
aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture |
securing Bonds issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build |
Illinois Bond Act is sufficient, taking into account any |
future investment income, to fully provide, in accordance with |
such indenture, for the defeasance of or the payment of the |
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds |
secured by such indenture and on any Bonds expected to be |
issued thereafter and all fees and costs payable with respect |
thereto, all as certified by the Director of the Bureau of the |
Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If on |
the last business day of any month in which Bonds are |
outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the |
aggregate of the moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond |
Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less |
than the amount required to be transferred in such month from |
the Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond |
Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the |
Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such deficiency |
shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois |
Fund; provided, however, that any amounts paid to the Build |
Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this sentence |
shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence and shall reduce the amount |
otherwise payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence. The moneys received by the |
|
Department pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited |
into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim |
and charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond |
Act. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |
as provided in the preceding paragraph or in any amendment |
thereto hereafter enacted, the following specified monthly |
installment of the amount requested in the certificate of the |
Chairman of the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority |
provided under Section 8.25f of the State Finance Act, but not |
in excess of the sums designated as "Total Deposit", shall be |
deposited in the aggregate from collections under Section 9 of |
the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, Section |
9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, and Section 3 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act into the McCormick Place |
Expansion Project Fund in the specified fiscal years. |

binding on the State. |
Subject to payment of amounts into the Build Illinois Fund |

each month, from the collections made under Section 9 of the |

|
Section 110-15. The Service Occupation Tax Act is amended |
by changing Section 9 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 115/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.109) |
Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect |
the tax herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount |
of such tax at the time when he is required to file his return |
for the period during which such tax was collectible, less a |
discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and |
after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is |
greater, which is allowed to reimburse the serviceman for |
expenses incurred in collecting the tax, keeping records, |
preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax , and supplying |
data to the Department on request. Beginning with returns due |
on or after January 1, 2025, the vendor's discount allowed in |
this Section, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax |
Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, including any local tax |
administered by the Department and reported on the same |
return, shall not exceed $1,000 per month in the aggregate. |
When determining the discount allowed under this Section, |
servicemen shall include the amount of tax that would have |
been due at the 1% rate but for the 0% rate imposed under |
Public Act 102-700 this amendatory Act of the 102nd General |
Assembly . The discount under this Section is not allowed for |
the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel that is |
|
subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) |
and 49 U.S.C. 47133. The discount allowed under this Section |
is allowed only for returns that are filed in the manner |
required by this Act. The Department may disallow the discount |
for servicemen whose certificate of registration is revoked at |
the time the return is filed, but only if the Department's |
decision to revoke the certificate of registration has become |
final. |
Where such tangible personal property is sold under a |
conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale |
wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is |
extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is |
filed, the serviceman, in collecting the tax may collect, for |
each tax return period, only the tax applicable to the part of |
the selling price actually received during such tax return |
period. |
Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or |
before the twentieth day of each calendar month, such |
serviceman shall file a return for the preceding calendar |
month in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to |
be promulgated by the Department of Revenue. Such return shall |
be filed on a form prescribed by the Department and shall |
contain such information as the Department may reasonably |
require. The return shall include the gross receipts which |
were received during the preceding calendar month or quarter |
on the following items upon which tax would have been due but |
|
for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700 this |
amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly : (i) food for |
human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises |
where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, food |
consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft drinks, |
and food that has been prepared for immediate consumption); |
and (ii) food prepared for immediate consumption and |
transferred incident to a sale of service subject to this Act |
or the Service Use Tax Act by an entity licensed under the |
Hospital Licensing Act, the Nursing Home Care Act, the |
Assisted Living and Shared Housing Act, the ID/DD Community |
Care Act, the MC/DD Act, the Specialized Mental Health |
Rehabilitation Act of 2013, or the Child Care Act of 1969, or |
an entity that holds a permit issued pursuant to the Life Care |
Facilities Act. The return shall also include the amount of |
tax that would have been due on the items listed in the |
previous sentence but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act |
102-700 this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly . |
On and after January 1, 2018, with respect to servicemen |
whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, all |
returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. Servicemen who demonstrate that they do |
not have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in |
filing electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
|
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before |
the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in business as a serviceman in this |
State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |
him during the preceding calendar month, including |
receipts from charge and time sales, but less all |
deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; |
5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Each serviceman required or authorized to collect the tax |
herein imposed on aviation fuel acquired as an incident to the |
purchase of a service in this State during the preceding |
calendar month shall, instead of reporting and paying tax as |
otherwise required by this Section, report and pay such tax on |
a separate aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related |
|
to the return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section. |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the |
contrary, servicemen transferring aviation fuel incident to |
sales of service shall file all aviation fuel tax returns and |
shall make all aviation fuel tax payments by electronic means |
in the manner and form required by the Department. For |
purposes of this Section, "aviation fuel" means jet fuel and |
aviation gasoline. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, servicemen subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Prior to October 1, 2003, and on and after September 1, |
2004 a serviceman may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit |
certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Service Use |
Tax as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act if |
the purchaser provides the appropriate documentation as |
required by Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act. A |
Manufacturer's Purchase Credit certification, accepted prior |
to October 1, 2003 or on or after September 1, 2004 by a |
serviceman as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax |
|
Act, may be used by that serviceman to satisfy Service |
Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in the |
certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to |
tax from a qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on any original or amended return filed under |
this Act after October 20, 2003 for reporting periods prior to |
September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on annual returns due on or after January 1, |
2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to September 1, |
2004. No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used after |
September 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to satisfy any tax |
liability imposed under this Act, including any audit |
liability. |
Beginning on July 1, 2023 and through December 31, 2032, a |
serviceman may accept a Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase |
Credit certification from an air common carrier-purchaser in |
satisfaction of Service Use Tax as provided in Section 3-72 of |
the Service Use Tax Act if the purchaser provides the |
appropriate documentation as required by Section 3-72 of the |
Service Use Tax Act. A Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase |
Credit certification accepted by a serviceman in accordance |
with this paragraph may be used by that serviceman to satisfy |
service occupation tax liability (but not in satisfaction of |
penalty or interest) in the amount claimed in the |
certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to |
tax from a sale of aviation fuel. In addition, for a sale of |
|
aviation fuel to qualify to earn the Sustainable Aviation Fuel |
Purchase Credit, servicemen must retain in their books and |
records a certification from the producer of the aviation fuel |
that the aviation fuel sold by the serviceman and for which a |
sustainable aviation fuel purchase credit was earned meets the |
definition of sustainable aviation fuel under Section 3-72 of |
the Service Use Tax Act. The documentation must include detail |
sufficient for the Department to determine the number of |
gallons of sustainable aviation fuel sold. |
If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize |
his 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 20 of such year; with the return for April, May , |
and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year; |
with the return for July, August , and September of a given year |
being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for |
October, November , and December of a given year being due by |
January 20 of the following year. |
If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to the |
Department does not exceed $50, the Department may authorize |
his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with the return for |
a given year being due by January 20 of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
|
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the |
case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of |
business which makes him responsible for filing returns under |
this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this |
Act with the Department not more than one 1 month after |
discontinuing such business. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" means the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
|
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the |
selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and |
the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal |
property and the serviceman refunds the selling price thereof |
to the purchaser, such serviceman shall also refund, to the |
|
purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When |
filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax |
to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct the amount of the |
tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other Service |
Occupation Tax, Service Use Tax, Retailers' Occupation Tax , or |
Use Tax which such serviceman may be required to pay or remit |
to the Department, as shown by such return, provided that the |
amount of the tax to be deducted shall previously have been |
remitted to the Department by such serviceman. If the |
serviceman shall not previously have remitted the amount of |
such tax to the Department, he shall be entitled to no |
deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to the purchaser. |
If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the |
Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint |
return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file |
returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax |
Act, the Use Tax Act , or the Service Use Tax Act, to furnish |
all the return information required by all said Acts on the one |
form. |
Where the serviceman has more than one business registered |
with the Department under separate registrations hereunder, |
such serviceman shall file separate returns for each |
registered business. |

pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the |
revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate on sales of tangible personal property other than |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This |
exception for aviation fuel only applies for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |

pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on transfers of tangible personal property other than aviation |
fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This exception for |
aviation fuel only applies for so long as the revenue use |
requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are |
binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |

from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
|
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |

Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an amount equal to |
the average monthly deficit in the Underground Storage Tank |
Fund during the prior year, as certified annually by the |
Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total |
payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, |
the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Retailers' |
|
Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in any State |
fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the "average monthly |
deficit" shall be equal to the difference between the average |
monthly claims for payment by the fund and the average monthly |
revenues deposited into the fund, excluding payments made |
pursuant to this paragraph. |
Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys |
received by the Department under the Use Tax Act, the Service |
Use Tax Act, this Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, |
each month the Department shall deposit $500,000 into the |
State Crime Laboratory Fund. |
Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |

Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on |
and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the |

year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required |
to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax |
Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the |
Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts being hereinafter called |
the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case |
may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act |
Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois |
Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be |
|
less than the Annual Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3 |
of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act), an amount equal to the |
difference shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois |
Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant to |
the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the last |
business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount |
required to be deposited into the Build Illinois Account in |
the Build Illinois Fund during such month and (2) the amount |
transferred during such month to the Build Illinois Fund from |
the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less |
than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to |
the difference shall be immediately paid into the Build |
Illinois Fund from other moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided, that in no |
event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso |
result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund |
pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of |
the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual |
Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided, |
that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under |
this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the |
aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture |
securing Bonds issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build |
Illinois Bond Act is sufficient, taking into account any |
future investment income, to fully provide, in accordance with |
such indenture, for the defeasance of or the payment of the |
|
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds |
secured by such indenture and on any Bonds expected to be |
issued thereafter and all fees and costs payable with respect |
thereto, all as certified by the Director of the Bureau of the |
Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If on |
the last business day of any month in which Bonds are |
outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the |
aggregate of the moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond |
Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less |
than the amount required to be transferred in such month from |
the Build Illinois Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond |
Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the |
Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such deficiency |
shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois |
Fund; provided, however, that any amounts paid to the Build |
Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this sentence |
shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence and shall reduce the amount |
otherwise payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b) |
of the preceding sentence. The moneys received by the |
Department pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited |
into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim |
and charge set forth in Section 12 of the Build Illinois Bond |
Act. |

subject to the payment of amounts into the County and Mass |
Transit District Fund, the Local Government Tax Fund, the |
Build Illinois Fund, the McCormick Place Expansion Project |

Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department |
pursuant to this Act, 75% shall be paid into the General |

the Common School Fund as part of the monthly transfer from the |

State Finance Act. |
The Department may, upon separate written notice to a |
taxpayer, require the taxpayer to prepare and file with the |
Department on a form prescribed by the Department within not |
less than 60 days after receipt of the notice an annual |
information return for the tax year specified in the notice. |
Such annual return to the Department shall include a statement |
of gross receipts as shown by the taxpayer's last federal |
Federal income tax return. If the total receipts of the |
business as reported in the federal Federal income tax return |
do not agree with the gross receipts reported to the |
Department of Revenue for the same period, the taxpayer shall |
attach to his annual return a schedule showing a |
reconciliation of the 2 amounts and the reasons for the |
difference. The taxpayer's annual return to the Department |
shall also disclose the cost of goods sold by the taxpayer |
|
during the year covered by such return, opening and closing |
inventories of such goods for such year, cost of goods used |
from stock or taken from stock and given away by the taxpayer |
during such year, pay roll information of the taxpayer's |
business during such year and any additional reasonable |
information which the Department deems would be helpful in |
determining the accuracy of the monthly, quarterly or annual |
returns filed by such taxpayer as hereinbefore provided for in |
this Section. |
If the annual information return required by this Section |
is not filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be liable |
as follows: |
(i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be |
liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due from |
such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be |
covered by the annual return for each month or fraction of |
a month until such return is filed as required, the |
penalty to be assessed and collected in the same manner as |
any other penalty provided for in this Act. |
(ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall |
be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act. |
The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner , or highest |
ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the |
accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person who |
willfully signs the annual return containing false or |
|
inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished |
accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the |
Department shall include a warning that the person signing the |
return may be liable for perjury. |
The foregoing portion of this Section concerning the |
filing of an annual information return shall not apply to a |
serviceman who is not required to file an income tax return |
with the United States Government. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon |
certification of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller |
shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall transfer from |
the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax Fund an amount |
equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized under this Act |
for the second preceding month. Beginning April 1, 2000, this |
transfer is no longer required and shall not be made. |
Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue |
collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount |
paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for |
overpayment of liability. |
For greater simplicity of administration, it shall be |
permissible for manufacturers, importers and wholesalers whose |
products are sold by numerous servicemen in Illinois, and who |
wish to do so, to assume the responsibility for accounting and |
paying to the Department all tax accruing under this Act with |
respect to such sales, if the servicemen who are affected do |
not make written objection to the Department to this |
|
arrangement. |

10. Such other reasonable information as the |

to be filed prior to January 1, 2023 for motor vehicles, |
watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required to be |
registered with an agency of this State, with respect to |
retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more, |
all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be |
filed electronically. On and after January 1, 2023, with |
respect to retailers whose annual gross receipts average |
$20,000 or more, all returns required to be filed pursuant to |
this Act, including, but not limited to, returns for motor |
vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required |
to be registered with an agency of this State, shall be filed |
electronically. Retailers who demonstrate that they do not |
have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in filing |
electronically may petition the Department to waive the |
electronic filing requirement. |
If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after |
the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department, |
the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be |
due on the return shall be deemed assessed. |
Each return shall be accompanied by the statement of |
prepaid tax issued pursuant to Section 2e for which credit is |
claimed. |
Prior to October 1, 2003 , and on and after September 1, |
2004 , a retailer may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit |
|
certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Use Tax as |
provided in Section 3-85 of the Use Tax Act if the purchaser |
provides the appropriate documentation as required by Section |
3-85 of the Use Tax Act. A Manufacturer's Purchase Credit |
certification, accepted by a retailer prior to October 1, 2003 |
and on and after September 1, 2004 as provided in Section 3-85 |
of the Use Tax Act, may be used by that retailer to satisfy |
Retailers' Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in |
the certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject |
to tax from a qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on any original or amended return filed under |
this Act after October 20, 2003 for reporting periods prior to |
September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's Purchase |
Credit reported on annual returns due on or after January 1, |
2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to September 1, |
2004. No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used after |
September 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to satisfy any tax |
liability imposed under this Act, including any audit |
liability. |
Beginning on July 1, 2023 and through December 31, 2032, a |

satisfaction of Use Tax on aviation fuel as provided in |
Section 3-87 of the Use Tax Act if the purchaser provides the |
appropriate documentation as required by Section 3-87 of the |
Use Tax Act. A Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase Credit |
|
certification accepted by a retailer in accordance with this |
paragraph may be used by that retailer to satisfy Retailers' |
Occupation Tax liability (but not in satisfaction of penalty |
or interest) in the amount claimed in the certification, not |
to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to tax from a sale of |
aviation fuel. In addition, for a sale of aviation fuel to |
qualify to earn the Sustainable Aviation Fuel Purchase Credit, |
retailers must retain in their books and records a |
certification from the producer of the aviation fuel that the |
aviation fuel sold by the retailer and for which a sustainable |
aviation fuel purchase credit was earned meets the definition |
of sustainable aviation fuel under Section 3-87 of the Use Tax |
Act. The documentation must include detail sufficient for the |
Department to determine the number of gallons of sustainable |
aviation fuel sold. |
The Department may require returns to be filed on a |
quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar |
quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the |
calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The |
taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each |
of the first 2 two months of each calendar quarter, on or |
before the twentieth day of the following calendar month, |
stating: |
1. The name of the seller; |
2. The address of the principal place of business from |
which he engages in the business of selling tangible |
|
personal property at retail in this State; |
3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by |

tangible personal property by him during such preceding |
calendar month, including receipts from charge and time |
sales, but less all deductions allowed by law; |
4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this |
Act; |
5. The amount of tax due; and |
6. Such other reasonable information as the Department |
may require. |
Every person engaged in the business of selling aviation |
fuel at retail in this State during the preceding calendar |
month shall, instead of reporting and paying tax as otherwise |
required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate |
aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the |
return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section. |
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers selling aviation fuel shall file all |
aviation fuel tax returns and shall make all aviation fuel tax |
payments by electronic means in the manner and form required |
by the Department. For purposes of this Section, "aviation |
fuel" means jet fuel and aviation gasoline. |
Beginning on October 1, 2003, any person who is not a |
licensed distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer, |
as defined in the Liquor Control Act of 1934, but is engaged in |
|
the business of selling, at retail, alcoholic liquor shall |
file a statement with the Department of Revenue, in a format |
and at a time prescribed by the Department, showing the total |
amount paid for alcoholic liquor purchased during the |
preceding month and such other information as is reasonably |
required by the Department. The Department may adopt rules to |
require that this statement be filed in an electronic or |
telephonic format. Such rules may provide for exceptions from |
the filing requirements of this paragraph. For the purposes of |
this paragraph, the term "alcoholic liquor" shall have the |
meaning prescribed in the Liquor Control Act of 1934. |
Beginning on October 1, 2003, every distributor, importing |
distributor, and manufacturer of alcoholic liquor as defined |
in the Liquor Control Act of 1934, shall file a statement with |
the Department of Revenue, no later than the 10th day of the |
month for the preceding month during which transactions |
occurred, by electronic means, showing the total amount of |
gross receipts from the sale of alcoholic liquor sold or |
distributed during the preceding month to purchasers; |
identifying the purchaser to whom it was sold or distributed; |
the purchaser's tax registration number; and such other |
information reasonably required by the Department. A |
distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer of |
alcoholic liquor must personally deliver, mail, or provide by |
electronic means to each retailer listed on the monthly |
statement a report containing a cumulative total of that |
|
distributor's, importing distributor's, or manufacturer's |
total sales of alcoholic liquor to that retailer no later than |
the 10th day of the month for the preceding month during which |
the transaction occurred. The distributor, importing |
distributor, or manufacturer shall notify the retailer as to |
the method by which the distributor, importing distributor, or |
manufacturer will provide the sales information. If the |
retailer is unable to receive the sales information by |
electronic means, the distributor, importing distributor, or |
manufacturer shall furnish the sales information by personal |
delivery or by mail. For purposes of this paragraph, the term |
"electronic means" includes, but is not limited to, the use of |
a secure Internet website, e-mail, or facsimile. |
If a total amount of less than $1 is payable, refundable or |
creditable, such amount shall be disregarded if it is less |
than 50 cents and shall be increased to $1 if it is 50 cents or |
more. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act to the |
contrary, retailers subject to tax on cannabis shall file all |
cannabis tax returns and shall make all cannabis tax payments |
by electronic means in the manner and form required by the |
Department. |
Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average |
monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all |
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic |
funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has |
|
an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall |
make all payments required by rules of the Department by |
electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a |
taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 |
or more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1, |
2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000 or |
more shall make all payments required by rules of the |
Department by electronic funds transfer. The term "annual tax |
liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year. The term "average monthly |
tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities |
under this Act, and under all other State and local occupation |
and use tax laws administered by the Department, for the |
immediately preceding calendar year divided by 12. Beginning |
on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has a tax liability in the |
amount set forth in subsection (b) of Section 2505-210 of the |
Department of Revenue Law shall make all payments required by |
rules of the Department by electronic funds transfer. |
Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the |
Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make |
payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required |
to make payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. |
|
Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic |
funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer |
with the permission of the Department. |
All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds |
transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make |
payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those |
payments in the manner authorized by the Department. |
The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to |
effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the |
requirements of this Section. |
Any amount which is required to be shown or reported on any |
return or other document under this Act shall, if such amount |
is not a whole-dollar amount, be increased to the nearest |
whole-dollar amount in any case where the fractional part of a |
dollar is 50 cents or more, and decreased to the nearest |
whole-dollar amount where the fractional part of a dollar is |
less than 50 cents. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly |
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to |
the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may |
authorize his 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 20 of such year; with the return for |
April, May , and June of a given year being due by July 20 of |
such year; with the return for July, August , and September of a |
given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the |
|
return for October, November , and December of a given year |
being due by January 20 of the following year. |
If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or |
quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax |
liability with the Department does not exceed $50, the |
Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual |
basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20 |
of the following year. |
Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and |
substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as |
monthly returns. |
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning |
the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the |
case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business |
which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act, |
such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the |
Department not more than one month after discontinuing such |
business. |
Where the same person has more than one business |
registered with the Department under separate registrations |
under this Act, such person may not file each return that is |
due as a single return covering all such registered |
businesses, but shall file separate returns for each such |
registered business. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
|
an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this |
Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal |
property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be |
prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return |
for each such item of tangible personal property which the |
retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a |
retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles , or trailers |
transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle , |
or trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle |
retailer , or trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or |
(ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or |
trailers transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor |
vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as a qualifying |
rolling stock as provided in Section 2-5 of this Act, then that |
seller may report the transfer of all aircraft, watercraft, |
motor vehicles , or trailers involved in that transaction to |
the Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction |
reporting return form. For purposes of this Section, |
"watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as |
defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety |
Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped with an |
inboard motor. |
In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the |
business of leasing or renting such items and who, in |
|
connection with such business, sells any such item to a |
retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to |
meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting |
the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, |
or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the |
Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting |
return form on or before the 20th of the month following the |
month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed |
under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the |
manner and form as required by the Department. |
Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft, |
aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax |
liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such |
transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise |
required to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file |
monthly or quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall |
be required to file returns on an annual basis. |
The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor |
vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with |
an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the |
Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois |
Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller; |
the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the |
|
selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such |
other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the |
Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the |
Department may reasonably require. |
The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft |
or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the |
name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling |
price including the amount allowed by the retailer for |
traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer |
for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the |
extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for |
the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after |
deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling |
price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to |
such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the |
|
purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory |
evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance, |
if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the |
sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and |
such other information as the Department may reasonably |
require. |
Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later |
than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is |
being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner |
than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting |
return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the |
Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of |
the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the |
tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if |
titling or registration is required) if the Department and |
such agency or State officer determine that this procedure |
will expedite the processing of applications for title or |
registration. |
With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer |
shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit |
satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is |
the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the |
Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax |
receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is |
satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such |
purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State |
|
officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible |
personal property that is involved (if titling or registration |
is required) in support of such purchaser's application for an |
Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or |
registration to such tangible personal property. |
No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this |
Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the |
retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other |
evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration |
is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has |
paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The |
Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the |
mandate of this paragraph. |
If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer |
wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment |
of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before |
the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has |
not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the |
fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department |
being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit |
the information required by the transaction reporting return |
and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to |
the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption |
determination, in which event the transaction reporting return |
and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be |
credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account |
|
with the Department, but without the vendor's 2.1% or 1.75% |
discount provided for in this Section being allowed. When the |
user pays the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the |
tax in the same amount and in the same form in which it would |
be remitted if the tax had been remitted to the Department by |
the retailer. |
Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return |
period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property |
returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under |
subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case |
may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the |
receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a |
return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act |
with respect to such receipts. |
Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on |
behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president, |
vice-president, secretary , or treasurer or by the properly |
accredited agent of such corporation. |
Where the seller is a limited liability company, the |
return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall |
be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent |
of the limited liability company. |
Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing |
the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such |
return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this |
Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75% |
|
on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, |
whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the |
retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records, |
preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying |
data to the Department on request. On and after January 1, |
2021, a certified service provider, as defined in the Leveling |
the Playing Field for Illinois Retail Act, filing the return |
under this Section on behalf of a remote retailer shall, at the |
time of such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax |
imposed by this Act less a discount of 1.75%. A remote retailer |
using a certified service provider to file a return on its |
behalf, as provided in the Leveling the Playing Field for |
Illinois Retail Act, is not eligible for the discount. |
Beginning with returns due on or after January 1, 2025, the |
vendor's discount allowed in this Section, the Service |
Occupation Tax Act, the Use Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax |
Act, including any local tax administered by the Department |
and reported on the same return, shall not exceed $1,000 per |
month in the aggregate for returns other than transaction |
returns filed during the month. When determining the discount |
allowed under this Section, retailers shall include the amount |
of tax that would have been due at the 1% rate but for the 0% |
rate imposed under Public Act 102-700. When determining the |
discount allowed under this Section, retailers shall include |
the amount of tax that would have been due at the 6.25% rate |
but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales tax holiday items under |
|
Public Act 102-700. The discount under this Section is not |
allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel |
that is subject to the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. |
47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. Any prepayment made pursuant to |
Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on which |
such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of |
retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by |
transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount |
shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when |
such retailer files his periodic return , but, beginning with |
returns due on or after January 1, 2025, the vendor's discount |
allowed under this Section and the Use Tax Act, including any |
local tax administered by the Department and reported on the |
same transaction return, shall not exceed $1,000 per month for |
all transaction returns filed during the month . The discount |
allowed under this Section is allowed only for returns that |
are filed in the manner required by this Act. The Department |
may disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of |
registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but |
only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of |
registration has become final. |
Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly |
tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax |
Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be |
remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was |
|
$10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average |
monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act, the |
Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service |
Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to |
be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was |
$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each |
month by the 20th day of the month next following the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make |
payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and |
last day of the month during which such liability is incurred. |
If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began |
prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month |
or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the |
average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department |
for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the |
month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability |
in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985 and |
|
prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same |
calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during |
which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment |
shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability |
for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or |
after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal |
to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of |
the preceding year. If the month during which such tax |
liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and |
prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount |
equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the |
month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar |
month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual |
liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount |
of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the |
final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. |
Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of |
the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by |
taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000 |
|
or more as determined in the manner provided above shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement |
of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by |
taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 |
or more as determined in the manner provided above shall |
continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to |
the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar |
quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the |
month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such |
taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as |
computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete |
calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a |
taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in |
|
the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer |
to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the |
reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 |
threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the |
Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. |
The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status |
unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not |
likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall |
be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
0% in Public Act 102-700 on food for human consumption that is |
to be consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than |
alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult |
use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for |
immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly |
payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and |
through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for |
the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be |
determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 |
had not occurred. Quarter monthly payment status shall be |
determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to |
1.25% in Public Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not |
occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, |
2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's |
liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" |
shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public |
Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. If any |
|
such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the |
amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be |
liable for penalties and interest on the difference between |
the minimum amount due as a payment and the amount of such |
quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments |
previously due as provided in this Section. The Department |
shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the |
quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment |
dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly |
basis. |
The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1, |
2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make |
quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who |
is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit |
prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in |
excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete |
calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as |
required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the |
Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the |
month during which such liability is incurred. If the month |
during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to |
September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221), |
each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the |
taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month |
|
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after |
January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to |
22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or |
27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month |
of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such |
tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, |
each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the |
taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the |
taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the |
preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments |
shall be credited against the final tax liability of the |
taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or |
Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the |
requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the |
Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until |
such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during |
the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. |
If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or |
in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for |
penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as |
the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in |
excess of the minimum payments previously due. |
The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after |
October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is |
required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above, |
any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to |
|
collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid |
taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the |
preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return |
with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make |
payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd , |
and last day of the month during which the liability is |
incurred. Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of |
the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the |
taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the |
preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments |
shall be credited against the final tax liability of the |
taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or |
Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the |
requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the |
Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the |
taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the |
preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of |
highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less |
than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly |
liability to the Department as computed for each calendar |
quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less |
than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid |
at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be |
liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except |
insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that |
month in excess of the minimum payments previously due. |
|
If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the |
taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the |
Service Occupation Tax Act , and the Service Use Tax Act, as |
shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if |
requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit |
memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The |
credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by |
the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act , or the Service Use Tax |
Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be |
prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the |
taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability |
subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act, |
the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act , or the Service |
Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and |
regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department |
subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit |
taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's |
2.1% and 1.75 % vendor's discount shall be reduced , if |
necessary, to reflect by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference |
between the credit taken and that actually due, and that |
taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such |
difference. |
If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under |
Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability |
to the Department under this Act for the month for which the |
|
taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the |
taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the |
State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax imposed under |
this Act. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a special |
fund in the State treasury which is hereby created, 4% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% |
general rate other than aviation fuel sold on or after |
December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel only |
applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 |
U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% |
rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any |
month, the tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in |
Section 2-8, is imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the |
Department shall pay 20% of the net revenue realized for that |
month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of sales tax |
holiday items into the County and Mass Transit District Fund. |
Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue |
|
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of tangible personal property other than |
aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019. This |
exception for aviation fuel only applies for so long as the |
revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. |
47133 are binding on the State. |
For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each |
month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program |
Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month |
from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation |
fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be |
required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation |
fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only |
pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the |
Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long |
as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 |
U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. |
Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the |
selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any month, the |
tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in Section 2-8, is |
imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the Department shall pay 80% |
of the net revenue realized for that month from the 1.25% rate |
on the selling price of sales tax holiday items into the Local |
|
Government Tax Fund. |
Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to |
an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the |
net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of |
candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had |
been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that |
are now taxed at 6.25%. |
Beginning July 1, 2011, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund 80% of the net revenue |
realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate |
on the selling price of sorbents used in Illinois in the |
process of sorbent injection as used to comply with the |
Environmental Protection Act or the federal Clean Air Act, but |
the total payment into the Clean Air Act Permit Fund under this |
Act and the Use Tax Act shall not exceed $2,000,000 in any |
fiscal year. |
Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall |
pay into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds |
collected under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax |
Act, and the Service Occupation Tax Act an amount equal to the |
average monthly deficit in the Underground Storage Tank Fund |
during the prior year, as certified annually by the Illinois |
Environmental Protection Agency, but the total payment into |
the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act, the Use Tax |
Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Service Occupation Tax |
|
Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in any State fiscal year. As |
used in this paragraph, the "average monthly deficit" shall be |
equal to the difference between the average monthly claims for |
payment by the fund and the average monthly revenues deposited |
into the fund, excluding payments made pursuant to this |
paragraph. |

The Department may, upon separate written notice to a |
taxpayer, require the taxpayer to prepare and file with the |
Department on a form prescribed by the Department within not |
|
less than 60 days after receipt of the notice an annual |
information return for the tax year specified in the notice. |
Such annual return to the Department shall include a statement |
of gross receipts as shown by the retailer's last federal |
Federal income tax return. If the total receipts of the |
business as reported in the federal Federal income tax return |
do not agree with the gross receipts reported to the |
Department of Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall |
attach to his annual return a schedule showing a |
reconciliation of the 2 amounts and the reasons for the |
difference. The retailer's annual return to the Department |
shall also disclose the cost of goods sold by the retailer |
during the year covered by such return, opening and closing |
inventories of such goods for such year, costs of goods used |
from stock or taken from stock and given away by the retailer |

business during such year and any additional reasonable |
information which the Department deems would be helpful in |
determining the accuracy of the monthly, quarterly , or annual |
returns filed by such retailer as provided for in this |
Section. |
If the annual information return required by this Section |
is not filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be liable |
as follows: |
(i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be |
liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due from |
|
such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be |
covered by the annual return for each month or fraction of |
a month until such return is filed as required, the |
penalty to be assessed and collected in the same manner as |
any other penalty provided for in this Act. |
(ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall |
be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the |
Uniform Penalty and Interest Act. |
The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner , or highest |
ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the |
accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person who |
willfully signs the annual return containing false or |
inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished |
accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the |
Department shall include a warning that the person signing the |
return may be liable for perjury. |
The provisions of this Section concerning the filing of an |
annual information return do not apply to a retailer who is not |
required to file an income tax return with the United States |
Government. |
As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon |
certification of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller |
shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall transfer from |
the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax Fund an amount |
equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized under this Act |
for the second preceding month. Beginning April 1, 2000, this |
|
transfer is no longer required and shall not be made. |
Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue |
collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount |
paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for |
overpayment of liability. |
For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers, |
importers and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail in |
Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may |
assume the responsibility for accounting and paying to the |
Department all tax accruing under this Act with respect to |
such sales, if the retailers who are affected do not make |
written objection to the Department to this arrangement. |
Any person who promotes, organizes, or provides retail |
selling space for concessionaires or other types of sellers at |
the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin State Fair, county fairs, |
local fairs, art shows, flea markets , and similar exhibitions |
or events, including any transient merchant as defined by |
Section 2 of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required to |
file a report with the Department providing the name of the |
merchant's business, the name of the person or persons engaged |
in merchant's business, the permanent address and Illinois |
Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the merchant, |
the dates and location of the event , and other reasonable |
information that the Department may require. The report must |
be filed not later than the 20th day of the month next |
following the month during which the event with retail sales |
|
was held. Any person who fails to file a report required by |
this Section commits a business offense and is subject to a |
fine not to exceed $250. |
Any person engaged in the business of selling tangible |
personal property at retail as a concessionaire or other type |
of seller at the Illinois State Fair, county fairs, art shows, |
flea markets , and similar exhibitions or events, or any |
transient merchants, as defined by Section 2 of the Transient |
Merchant Act of 1987, may be required to make a daily report of |
the amount of such sales to the Department and to make a daily |
payment of the full amount of tax due. The Department shall |
impose this requirement when it finds that there is a |
significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an |
exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on evidence |
that a substantial number of concessionaires or other sellers |
who are not residents of Illinois will be engaging in the |
business of selling tangible personal property at retail at |
the exhibition or event, or other evidence of a significant |
risk of loss of revenue to the State. The Department shall |
notify concessionaires and other sellers affected by the |
imposition of this requirement. In the absence of notification |
by the Department, the concessionaires and other sellers shall |
file their returns as otherwise required in this Section. |

Section 110-25. The Prepaid Wireless 9-1-1 Surcharge Act |
is amended by changing Section 20 as follows: |
(50 ILCS 753/20) |
Sec. 20. Administration of prepaid wireless 9-1-1 |
surcharge. |
(a) In the administration and enforcement of this Act, the |
provisions of Sections 2a, 2b, 2c, 3, 4, 5, 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, |
5f, 5g, 5i, 5j, 6, 6a, 6b, 6c, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act that are not inconsistent with |
this Act, and Section 3-7 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest |
Act shall apply, as far as practicable, to the subject matter |
of this Act to the same extent as if those provisions were |
included in this Act. References to "taxes" in these |
incorporated Sections shall be construed to apply to the |
administration, payment, and remittance of all surcharges |
under this Act. The Department shall establish registration |
and payment procedures that substantially coincide with the |
registration and payment procedures that apply to the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. |
(b) A seller shall be permitted to deduct and retain 3% of |
prepaid wireless 9-1-1 surcharges that are collected by the |
seller from consumers and that are remitted and timely filed |
|
with the Department. Beginning with returns due on or after |
January 1, 2025, the 3% deduction allowed under this |
subsection, including any local surcharge administered by the |
Department and reported on the same return, shall not exceed |
$1,000 per month. Beginning January 1, 2018, the seller is |
allowed to deduct and retain a portion of the prepaid wireless |
9-1-1 surcharges as authorized by this subsection only if the |
return is filed electronically as provided in Section 3 of the |
Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. Sellers who demonstrate that |
they do not have access to the Internet or demonstrate |
hardship in filing electronically may petition the Department |
to waive the electronic filing requirement. |
(c) Other than the amounts for deposit into the Municipal |
Wireless Service Emergency Fund, the Department shall pay to |
the State Treasurer all prepaid wireless E911 charges, |
penalties, and interest collected under this Act for deposit |
into the Statewide 9-1-1 Fund. On or before the 25th day of |
each calendar month, the Department shall prepare and certify |
to the Comptroller the amount available to the Illinois State |
Police for distribution out of the Statewide 9-1-1 Fund. The |
amount certified shall be the amount (not including credit |
memoranda) collected during the second preceding calendar |
month by the Department plus an amount the Department |
determines is necessary to offset any amounts which were |
erroneously paid to a different taxing body. The amount paid |
to the Statewide 9-1-1 Fund shall not include any amount equal |
|
to the amount of refunds made during the second preceding |
calendar month by the Department of Revenue to retailers under |
this Act or any amount that the Department determines is |
necessary to offset any amounts which were payable to a |
different taxing body but were erroneously paid to the |
Statewide 9-1-1 Fund. The Illinois State Police shall |
distribute the funds in accordance with Section 30 of the |
Emergency Telephone Safety Act. The Department may deduct an |
amount, not to exceed 2% of remitted charges, to be |
transferred into the Tax Compliance and Administration Fund to |
reimburse the Department for its direct costs of administering |
the collection and remittance of prepaid wireless 9-1-1 |
surcharges. |
(d) The Department shall administer the collection of all |
9-1-1 surcharges and may adopt and enforce reasonable rules |
relating to the administration and enforcement of the |
provisions of this Act as may be deemed expedient. The |
Department shall require all surcharges collected under this |
Act to be reported on existing forms or combined forms, |
including, but not limited to, Form ST-1. Any overpayments |
received by the Department for liabilities reported on |
existing or combined returns shall be applied as an |
overpayment of retailers' occupation tax, use tax, service |
occupation tax, or service use tax liability. |
(e) If a home rule municipality having a population in |
excess of 500,000 as of the effective date of this amendatory |
|
Act of the 97th General Assembly imposes an E911 surcharge |
under subsection (a-5) of Section 15 of this Act, then the |
Department shall pay to the State Treasurer all prepaid |
wireless E911 charges, penalties, and interest collected for |
deposit into the Municipal Wireless Service Emergency Fund. |
All deposits into the Municipal Wireless Service Emergency |
Fund shall be held by the State Treasurer as ex officio |
custodian apart from all public moneys or funds of this State. |
Any interest attributable to moneys in the Fund must be |
deposited into the Fund. Moneys in the Municipal Wireless |

Section 135-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by |
changing Section 15-170 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/15-170) |
Sec. 15-170. Senior citizens homestead exemption. |
(a) An annual homestead exemption limited, except as |
described here with relation to cooperatives or life care |
facilities, to a maximum reduction set forth below from the |
property's value, as equalized or assessed by the Department, |
is granted for property that is occupied as a residence by a |
person 65 years of age or older who is liable for paying real |
estate taxes on the property and is an owner of record of the |
property or has a legal or equitable interest therein as |
evidenced by a written instrument, except for a leasehold |
interest, other than a leasehold interest of land on which a |
single family residence is located, which is occupied as a |
residence by a person 65 years or older who has an ownership |
interest therein, legal, equitable or as a lessee, and on |
which he or she is liable for the payment of property taxes. |
Before taxable year 2004, the maximum reduction shall be |
$2,500 in counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants and |
$2,000 in all other counties. For taxable years 2004 through |
2005, the maximum reduction shall be $3,000 in all counties. |
For taxable years 2006 and 2007, the maximum reduction shall |
|
be $3,500. For taxable years 2008 through 2011, the maximum |
reduction is $4,000 in all counties. For taxable year 2012, |
the maximum reduction is $5,000 in counties with 3,000,000 or |
more inhabitants and $4,000 in all other counties. For taxable |
years 2013 through 2016, the maximum reduction is $5,000 in |
all counties. For taxable years 2017 through 2022, the maximum |
reduction is $8,000 in counties with 3,000,000 or more |
inhabitants and $5,000 in all other counties. For taxable |
years 2023 and thereafter, the maximum reduction is $8,000 in |
counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants and counties that |
are contiguous to a county of 3,000,000 or more inhabitants |
and $5,000 in all other counties. |
(b) For land improved with an apartment building owned and |
operated as a cooperative, the maximum reduction from the |
value of the property, as equalized by the Department, shall |
be multiplied by the number of apartments or units occupied by |
a person 65 years of age or older who is liable, by contract |
with the owner or owners of record, for paying property taxes |
on the property and is an owner of record of a legal or |
equitable interest in the cooperative apartment building, |
other than a leasehold interest. For land improved with a life |
care facility, the maximum reduction from the value of the |
property, as equalized by the Department, shall be multiplied |
by the number of apartments or units occupied by persons 65 |
years of age or older, irrespective of any legal, equitable, |
or leasehold interest in the facility, who are liable, under a |
|
contract with the owner or owners of record of the facility, |
for paying property taxes on the property. In a cooperative or |
a life care facility where a homestead exemption has been |
granted, the cooperative association or the management firm of |
the cooperative or facility shall credit the savings resulting |
from that exemption only to the apportioned tax liability of |
the owner or resident who qualified for the exemption. Any |
person who willfully refuses to so credit the savings shall be |
guilty of a Class B misdemeanor. Under this Section and |
Sections 15-175, 15-176, and 15-177, "life care facility" |
means a facility, as defined in Section 2 of the Life Care |
Facilities Act, with which the applicant for the homestead |
exemption has a life care contract as defined in that Act. |
(c) When a homestead exemption has been granted under this |
Section and the person qualifying subsequently becomes a |
resident of a facility licensed under the Assisted Living and |
Shared Housing Act, the Nursing Home Care Act, the Specialized |
Mental Health Rehabilitation Act of 2013, the ID/DD Community |
Care Act, or the MC/DD Act, the exemption shall continue so |
long as the residence continues to be occupied by the |
qualifying person's spouse if the spouse is 65 years of age or |
older, or if the residence remains unoccupied but is still |
owned by the person qualified for the homestead exemption. |
(d) A person who will be 65 years of age during the current |
assessment year shall be eligible to apply for the homestead |
exemption during that assessment year. Application shall be |
|
made during the application period in effect for the county of |
his residence. |
(e) Beginning with assessment year 2003, for taxes payable |
in 2004, property that is first occupied as a residence after |
January 1 of any assessment year by a person who is eligible |
for the senior citizens homestead exemption under this Section |
must be granted a pro-rata exemption for the assessment year. |
The amount of the pro-rata exemption is the exemption allowed |
in the county under this Section divided by 365 and multiplied |
by the number of days during the assessment year the property |
is occupied as a residence by a person eligible for the |
exemption under this Section. The chief county assessment |
officer must adopt reasonable procedures to establish |
eligibility for this pro-rata exemption. |
(f) The assessor or chief county assessment officer may |
determine the eligibility of a life care facility to receive |
the benefits provided by this Section, by affidavit, |
application, visual inspection, questionnaire or other |
reasonable methods in order to ensure insure that the tax |
savings resulting from the exemption are credited by the |
management firm to the apportioned tax liability of each |
qualifying resident. The assessor may request reasonable proof |
that the management firm has so credited the exemption. |
(g) The chief county assessment officer of each county |
with less than 3,000,000 inhabitants shall provide to each |
person allowed a homestead exemption under this Section a form |
|
to designate any other person to receive a duplicate of any |
notice of delinquency in the payment of taxes assessed and |
levied under this Code on the property of the person receiving |
the exemption. The duplicate notice shall be in addition to |
the notice required to be provided to the person receiving the |
exemption, and shall be given in the manner required by this |
Code. The person filing the request for the duplicate notice |
shall pay a fee of $5 to cover administrative costs to the |
supervisor of assessments, who shall then file the executed |
designation with the county collector. Notwithstanding any |
other provision of this Code to the contrary, the filing of |
such an executed designation requires the county collector to |
provide duplicate notices as indicated by the designation. A |
designation may be rescinded by the person who executed such |
designation at any time, in the manner and form required by the |
chief county assessment officer. |
(h) The assessor or chief county assessment officer may |
determine the eligibility of residential property to receive |
the homestead exemption provided by this Section by |
application, visual inspection, questionnaire or other |
reasonable methods. The determination shall be made in |
accordance with guidelines established by the Department. |
(i) In counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, for |
taxable years 2010 through 2018, and beginning again in |
taxable year 2024, each taxpayer who has been granted an |
exemption under this Section must reapply on an annual basis. |
|
If a reapplication is required, then the chief county |
assessment officer shall mail the application to the taxpayer |
at least 60 days prior to the last day of the application |
period for the county. |
For taxable years 2019 and thereafter through 2023 , in |
counties with 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, a taxpayer who |
has been granted an exemption under this Section need not |
reapply. However, if the property ceases to be qualified for |
the exemption under this Section in any year for which a |
reapplication is not required under this Section, then the |
owner of record of the property shall notify the chief county |
assessment officer that the property is no longer qualified. |
In addition, for taxable years 2019 and thereafter through |
2023 , the chief county assessment officer of a county with |
3,000,000 or more inhabitants shall enter into an |
intergovernmental agreement with the county clerk of that |
county and the Department of Public Health, as well as any |
other appropriate governmental agency, to obtain information |
that documents the death of a taxpayer who has been granted an |
exemption under this Section. Notwithstanding any other |
provision of law, the county clerk and the Department of |
Public Health shall provide that information to the chief |
county assessment officer. The Department of Public Health |
shall supply this information no less frequently than every |
calendar quarter. Information concerning the death of a |
taxpayer may be shared with the county treasurer. The chief |

exemptions granted for the preceding reassessment cycle under |
this Section. The review shall be designed to ascertain |

Section 155-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by |
changing Sections 9-45 and 11-15 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/9-45) |
Sec. 9-45. Property index number system. The county clerk |
in counties of 3,000,000 or more inhabitants and, subject to |
the approval of the county board, the chief county assessment |
|
officer or recorder, in counties of less than 3,000,000 |
inhabitants, may establish a property index number system |
under which property may be listed for purposes of assessment, |
collection of taxes or automation of the office of the |
recorder. The system may be adopted in addition to, or instead |
of, the method of listing by legal description as provided in |
Section 9-40. The system shall describe property by township, |
section, block, and parcel or lot, and may cross-reference the |
street or post office address, if any, and street code number, |
if any. The county clerk, county treasurer, chief county |
assessment officer or recorder may establish and maintain |
cross indexes of numbers assigned under the system with the |
complete legal description of the properties to which the |
numbers relate. Index numbers shall be assigned by the county |
clerk in counties of 3,000,000 or more inhabitants, and, at |
the direction of the county board in counties with less than |
3,000,000 inhabitants, shall be assigned by the chief county |
assessment officer or recorder. Tax maps of the county clerk, |
county treasurer or chief county assessment officer shall |
carry those numbers. The indexes shall be open to public |
inspection and be made available to the public. Any property |
index number system established prior to the effective date of |
this Code shall remain valid. However, in counties with less |
than 3,000,000 inhabitants, the system may be transferred to |
another authority upon the approval of the county board. |
Any real property used for a power generating or |
|
automotive manufacturing facility located within a county of |
less than 1,000,000 inhabitants, as to which litigation with |
respect to its assessed valuation is pending or was pending as |
of January 1, 1993, may be the subject of a real property tax |
assessment settlement agreement among the taxpayer and taxing |
districts in which it is situated. In addition, any real |
property that is located in a county with fewer than 1,000,000 |
inhabitants and (i) is used for natural gas extraction and |
fractionation or olefin and polymer manufacturing or (ii) is |
used for a petroleum refinery and (ii) located within a county |
of less than 1,000,000 inhabitants may be the subject of a real |
property tax assessment settlement agreement among the |
taxpayer and taxing districts in which the property is |
situated if litigation is or was pending as to its assessed |
valuation as of January 1, 2003 or thereafter. Other |
appropriate authorities, which may include county and State |
boards or officials, may also be parties to such agreements. |
Such agreements may include the assessment of the facility or |
property for any years in dispute as well as for up to 10 years |
in the future. Such agreements may provide for the settlement |
of issues relating to the assessed value of the facility and |
may provide for related payments, refunds, claims, credits |
against taxes and liabilities in respect to past and future |
taxes of taxing districts, including any fund created under |
Section 20-35 of this Act, all implementing the settlement |
agreement. Any such agreement may provide that parties thereto |
|
agree not to challenge assessments as provided in the |
agreement. An agreement entered into on or after January 1, |
1993 may provide for the classification of property that is |
the subject of the agreement as real or personal during the |
term of the agreement and thereafter. It may also provide that |
taxing districts agree to reimburse the taxpayer for amounts |
paid by the taxpayer in respect to taxes for the real property |
which is the subject of the agreement to the extent levied by |
those respective districts, over and above amounts which would |
be due if the facility were to be assessed as provided in the |
agreement. Such reimbursement may be provided in the agreement |
to be made by credit against taxes of the taxpayer. No credits |
shall be applied against taxes levied with respect to debt |
service or lease payments of a taxing district. No referendum |
approval or appropriation shall be required for such an |
agreement or such credits and any such obligation shall not |
constitute indebtedness of the taxing district for purposes of |
any statutory limitation. The county collector shall treat |
credited amounts as if they had been received by the collector |
as taxes paid by the taxpayer and as if remitted to the |
district. A county treasurer who is a party to such an |
agreement may agree to hold amounts paid in escrow as provided |
in the agreement for possible use for paying taxes until |
conditions of the agreement are met and then to apply these |
amounts as provided in the agreement. No such settlement |
agreement shall be effective unless it shall have been |
|
approved by the court in which such litigation is pending. Any |
such agreement which has been entered into prior to adoption |
of this amendatory Act of 1988 and which is contingent upon |
enactment of authorizing legislation shall be binding and |
enforceable. |

made to this Section by this amendatory Act of the 103rd |
General Assembly , the privilege tax imposed under this |
subsection (a-5) on a riverboat or casino conducting gambling |
operations in the City of East St. Louis shall be reduced, if |
applicable, by an amount equal to the difference in adjusted |
gross receipts for the 2022 calendar year less the current |
year's adjusted gross receipts, unless: |
(A) the riverboat or casino fails to employ at least |

As used in this subsection (a-5), "modified annual |
adjusted gross receipts" means: |
(A) for calendar year 2020, the annual adjusted gross |
receipts for the current year minus the difference between |
an amount equal to the average annual adjusted gross |
receipts from a riverboat or casino conducting gambling |
operations in the City of East St. Louis for 2014, 2015, |
2016, 2017, and 2018 and the annual adjusted gross |
receipts for 2018; |
(B) for calendar year 2021, the annual adjusted gross |
receipts for the current year minus the difference between |
an amount equal to the average annual adjusted gross |
receipts from a riverboat or casino conducting gambling |
operations in the City of East St. Louis for 2014, 2015, |
|
2016, 2017, and 2018 and the annual adjusted gross |
receipts for 2019; and |
(C) for calendar years 2022 through 2029, the annual |
adjusted gross receipts for the current year minus the |
difference between an amount equal to the average annual |
adjusted gross receipts from a riverboat or casino |
conducting gambling operations in the City of East St. |
Louis for 3 years preceding the current year and the |
annual adjusted gross receipts for the immediately |
preceding year. |
(a-6) From June 28, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act |
101-31) until June 30, 2023, an owners licensee that conducted |
gambling operations prior to January 1, 2011 shall receive a |
dollar-for-dollar credit against the tax imposed under this |
Section for any renovation or construction costs paid by the |
owners licensee, but in no event shall the credit exceed |
$2,000,000. |
Additionally, from June 28, 2019 (the effective date of |
Public Act 101-31) until December 31, 2024, an owners licensee |
that (i) is located within 15 miles of the Missouri border, and |
(ii) has at least 3 riverboats, casinos, or their equivalent |
within a 45-mile radius, may be authorized to relocate to a new |
location with the approval of both the unit of local |
government designated as the home dock and the Board, so long |
as the new location is within the same unit of local government |
and no more than 3 miles away from its original location. Such |
|
owners licensee shall receive a credit against the tax imposed |
under this Section equal to 8% of the total project costs, as |
approved by the Board, for any renovation or construction |
costs paid by the owners licensee for the construction of the |
new facility, provided that the new facility is operational by |
July 1, 2024. In determining whether or not to approve a |
relocation, the Board must consider the extent to which the |
relocation will diminish the gaming revenues received by other |
Illinois gaming facilities. |
(a-7) Beginning in the initial adjustment year and through |
the final adjustment year, if the total obligation imposed |
pursuant to either subsection (a-5) or (a-6) will result in an |
owners licensee receiving less after-tax adjusted gross |
receipts than it received in calendar year 2018, then the |
total amount of privilege taxes that the owners licensee is |
required to pay for that calendar year shall be reduced to the |
extent necessary so that the after-tax adjusted gross receipts |
in that calendar year equals the after-tax adjusted gross |
receipts in calendar year 2018, but the privilege tax |
reduction shall not exceed the annual adjustment cap. If |
pursuant to this subsection (a-7), the total obligation |
imposed pursuant to either subsection (a-5) or (a-6) shall be |
reduced, then the owners licensee shall not receive a refund |
from the State at the end of the subject calendar year but |
instead shall be able to apply that amount as a credit against |
any payments it owes to the State in the following calendar |
|
year to satisfy its total obligation under either subsection |
(a-5) or (a-6). The credit for the final adjustment year shall |
occur in the calendar year following the final adjustment |
year. |
If an owners licensee that conducted gambling operations |
prior to January 1, 2019 expands its riverboat or casino, |
including, but not limited to, with respect to its gaming |
floor, additional non-gaming amenities such as restaurants, |
bars, and hotels and other additional facilities, and incurs |
construction and other costs related to such expansion from |
June 28, 2019 (the effective date of Public Act 101-31) until |
June 28, 2029 June 28, 2024 (the 5th anniversary of the |
effective date of Public Act 101-31) , then for each |
$15,000,000 spent for any such construction or other costs |
related to expansion paid by the owners licensee, the final |
adjustment year shall be extended by one year and the annual |
adjustment cap shall increase by 0.2% of adjusted gross |
receipts during each calendar year until and including the |
final adjustment year. No further modifications to the final |
adjustment year or annual adjustment cap shall be made after |
$75,000,000 is incurred in construction or other costs related |
to expansion so that the final adjustment year shall not |
extend beyond the 9th calendar year after the initial |
adjustment year, not including the initial adjustment year, |
and the annual adjustment cap shall not exceed 4% of adjusted |
gross receipts in a particular calendar year. Construction and |
|
other costs related to expansion shall include all project |
related costs, including, but not limited to, all hard and |
soft costs, financing costs, on or off-site ground, road or |
utility work, cost of gaming equipment and all other personal |
property, initial fees assessed for each incremental gaming |
position, and the cost of incremental land acquired for such |
expansion. Soft costs shall include, but not be limited to, |
legal fees, architect, engineering and design costs, other |
consultant costs, insurance cost, permitting costs, and |
pre-opening costs related to the expansion, including, but not |
limited to, any of the following: marketing, real estate |
taxes, personnel, training, travel and out-of-pocket expenses, |
supply, inventory, and other costs, and any other project |
related soft costs. |
To be eligible for the tax credits in subsection (a-6), |
all construction contracts shall include a requirement that |
the contractor enter into a project labor agreement with the |
building and construction trades council with geographic |
jurisdiction of the location of the proposed gaming facility. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of this subsection |
(a-7), this subsection (a-7) does not apply to an owners |
licensee unless such owners licensee spends at least |
$15,000,000 on construction and other costs related to its |
expansion, excluding the initial fees assessed for each |
incremental gaming position. |

Act. |

receipts in a particular calendar year, and as may be |

(a-8) Riverboat gambling operations conducted by a |
licensed manager on behalf of the State are not subject to the |
tax imposed under this Section. |
(a-9) Beginning on January 1, 2020, the calculation of |
gross receipts or adjusted gross receipts, for the purposes of |
this Section, for a riverboat, a casino, or an organization |
gaming facility shall not include the dollar amount of |
non-cashable vouchers, coupons, and electronic promotions |
redeemed by wagerers upon the riverboat, in the casino, or in |
the organization gaming facility up to and including an amount |
not to exceed 20% of a riverboat's, a casino's, or an |
organization gaming facility's adjusted gross receipts. |
The Illinois Gaming Board shall submit to the General |
Assembly a comprehensive report no later than March 31, 2023 |
detailing, at a minimum, the effect of removing non-cashable |
vouchers, coupons, and electronic promotions from this |
calculation on net gaming revenues to the State in calendar |
years 2020 through 2022, the increase or reduction in wagerers |
as a result of removing non-cashable vouchers, coupons, and |
electronic promotions from this calculation, the effect of the |
tax rates in subsection (a-5) on net gaming revenues to this |
State, and proposed modifications to the calculation. |
(a-10) The taxes imposed by this Section shall be paid by |
|
the licensed owner or the organization gaming licensee to the |
Board not later than 5:00 o'clock p.m. of the day after the day |
when the wagers were made. |
(a-15) If the privilege tax imposed under subsection (a-3) |
is no longer imposed pursuant to item (i) of the last paragraph |
of subsection (a-3), then by June 15 of each year, each owners |
licensee, other than an owners licensee that admitted |
1,000,000 persons or fewer in calendar year 2004, must, in |
addition to the payment of all amounts otherwise due under |
this Section, pay to the Board a reconciliation payment in the |
amount, if any, by which the licensed owner's base amount |
exceeds the amount of net privilege tax paid by the licensed |
owner to the Board in the then current State fiscal year. A |
licensed owner's net privilege tax obligation due for the |
balance of the State fiscal year shall be reduced up to the |
total of the amount paid by the licensed owner in its June 15 |
reconciliation payment. The obligation imposed by this |
subsection (a-15) is binding on any person, firm, corporation, |
or other entity that acquires an ownership interest in any |
such owners license. The obligation imposed under this |
subsection (a-15) terminates on the earliest of: (i) July 1, |

(A) an act or acts of God, (B) an act of bioterrorism or |
terrorism or a bioterrorism or terrorism threat that was |
investigated by a law enforcement agency, or (C) a condition |
beyond the control of the owners licensee that does not result |
from any act or omission by the owners licensee or any of its |
agents and that poses a hazardous threat to the health and |
safety of patrons. If an owners licensee pays an amount in |
excess of its liability under this Section, the Board shall |
apply the overpayment to future payments required under this |
Section. |
For purposes of this subsection (a-15): |

Public Act 94-673 with respect to the amount of the payments |
required to be made under this subsection by an owners |
licensee to the Board. |
(b) From the tax revenue from riverboat or casino gambling |
deposited in the State Gaming Fund under this Section, an |
amount equal to 5% of adjusted gross receipts generated by a |
riverboat or a casino, other than a riverboat or casino |
designated in paragraph (1), (3), or (4) of subsection (e-5) |
of Section 7, shall be paid monthly, subject to appropriation |
by the General Assembly, to the unit of local government in |

Section 170-90. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by |

(35 ILCS 5/203) |
Sec. 203. Base income defined. |
|
(a) Individuals. |
(1) In general. In the case of an individual, base |
income means an amount equal to the taxpayer's adjusted |
gross income for the taxable year as modified by paragraph |
(2). |
(2) Modifications. The adjusted gross income referred |
to in paragraph (1) shall be modified by adding thereto |
the sum of the following amounts: |
(A) An amount equal to all amounts paid or accrued |
to the taxpayer as interest or dividends during the |
taxable year to the extent excluded from gross income |
in the computation of adjusted gross income, except |
stock dividends of qualified public utilities |
described in Section 305(e) of the Internal Revenue |
Code; |
(B) An amount equal to the amount of tax imposed by |
this Act to the extent deducted from gross income in |
the computation of adjusted gross income for the |
taxable year; |
(C) An amount equal to the amount received during |
the taxable year as a recovery or refund of real |
property taxes paid with respect to the taxpayer's |
principal residence under the Revenue Act of 1939 and |

subparagraph (L) of this paragraph (2) prior to July |
1, 1991, the retrospective application date of Article |
|
4 of Public Act 87-17. In the case of multi-unit or |
multi-use structures and farm dwellings, the taxes on |
the taxpayer's principal residence shall be that |
portion of the total taxes for the entire property |
which is attributable to such principal residence; |
(D) An amount equal to the amount of the capital |
gain deduction allowable under the Internal Revenue |
Code, to the extent deducted from gross income in the |
computation of adjusted gross income; |
(D-5) An amount, to the extent not included in |
adjusted gross income, equal to the amount of money |
withdrawn by the taxpayer in the taxable year from a |
medical care savings account and the interest earned |
on the account in the taxable year of a withdrawal |
pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 20 of the |
Medical Care Savings Account Act or subsection (b) of |
Section 20 of the Medical Care Savings Account Act of |
2000; |
(D-10) For taxable years ending after December 31, |
1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation |
costs that the individual deducted in computing |
adjusted gross income and for which the individual |
claims a credit under subsection (l) of Section 201; |
(D-15) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, an |
amount equal to the bonus depreciation deduction taken |
on the taxpayer's federal income tax return for the |
|
taxable year under subsection (k) of Section 168 of |
the Internal Revenue Code; |
(D-16) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons, |
or otherwise disposes of property for which the |
taxpayer was required in any taxable year to make an |
addition modification under subparagraph (D-15), then |
an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the |
deductions taken in all taxable years under |
subparagraph (Z) with respect to that property. |
If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (Z) and for which the taxpayer was |
allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction |
modification under subparagraph (Z), then an amount |
equal to that subtraction modification. |
The taxpayer is required to make the addition |
modification under this subparagraph only once with |
respect to any one piece of property; |
(D-17) An amount equal to the amount otherwise |
allowed as a deduction in computing base income for |
interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, (i) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a |
member of the same unitary business group but for the |
fact that foreign person's business activity outside |
|
the United States is 80% or more of the foreign |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification |
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the |
extent that dividends were included in base income of |
the unitary group for the same taxable year and |
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts |
included in gross income under Sections 951 through |
964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts included |
in gross income under Section 78 of the Internal |
Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of the same |
person to whom the interest was paid, accrued, or |
incurred. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
|
with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer can establish, based on a |
preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
|
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-18) An amount equal to the amount of intangible |
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in |
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a |
foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
|
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal |
Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income |
under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with |
respect to the stock of the same person to whom the |
intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence does not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management, |
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of |
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting |
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and |
|
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other |
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents, |
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service |
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
|
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-19) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
|
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
203(a)(2)(D-17) or Section 203(a)(2)(D-18) of this |
Act; |
(D-20) For taxable years beginning on or after |
January 1, 2002 and ending on or before December 31, |
2006, in the case of a distribution from a qualified |
|
tuition program under Section 529 of the Internal |
Revenue Code, other than (i) a distribution from a |
College Savings Pool created under Section 16.5 of the |
State Treasurer Act or (ii) a distribution from the |
Illinois Prepaid Tuition Trust Fund, an amount equal |
to the amount excluded from gross income under Section |
529(c)(3)(B). For taxable years beginning on or after |
January 1, 2007, in the case of a distribution from a |
qualified tuition program under Section 529 of the |
Internal Revenue Code, other than (i) a distribution |
from a College Savings Pool created under Section 16.5 |
of the State Treasurer Act, (ii) a distribution from |
the Illinois Prepaid Tuition Trust Fund, or (iii) a |
distribution from a qualified tuition program under |
Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code that (I) |
adopts and determines that its offering materials |
comply with the College Savings Plans Network's |
disclosure principles and (II) has made reasonable |
efforts to inform in-state residents of the existence |
of in-state qualified tuition programs by informing |
Illinois residents directly and, where applicable, to |
inform financial intermediaries distributing the |
program to inform in-state residents of the existence |
of in-state qualified tuition programs at least |
annually, an amount equal to the amount excluded from |
gross income under Section 529(c)(3)(B). |
|
For the purposes of this subparagraph (D-20), a |
qualified tuition program has made reasonable efforts |
if it makes disclosures (which may use the term |
"in-state program" or "in-state plan" and need not |
specifically refer to Illinois or its qualified |
programs by name) (i) directly to prospective |
participants in its offering materials or makes a |
public disclosure, such as a website posting; and (ii) |
where applicable, to intermediaries selling the |
out-of-state program in the same manner that the |
out-of-state program distributes its offering |
materials; |

the State Treasurer Act, an amount equal to the amount |

January 1, 2007, in the case of transfer of moneys from |
a qualified tuition program under Section 529 of the |

State to an ABLE account established under an |
out-of-state ABLE account program, an amount equal to |
the contribution component of the transferred amount |
that was previously deducted from base income under |
subsection (a)(2)(Y) or subsection (a)(2)(HH) of this |
Section; |
(D-22) For taxable years beginning on or after |

paragraph shall only apply to a taxpayer who was the |
first recipient of such assets after their recovery |

fact the foreign person's business activity outside |
the United States is 80% or more of the foreign |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |

with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |

preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
|
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |

of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |

foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
|
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(b)(2)(E-12) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |

intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |

marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
|
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(E-14) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
|
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |

Act; |

year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |

of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
|
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |

foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
|
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(c)(2)(G-12) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes: (1) |
expenses, losses, and costs for or related to the |

transactions or discounting transactions; (3) royalty, |

includes patents, patent applications, trade names, |
trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask works, |
trade secrets, and similar types of intangible assets. |
|
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |

or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
|
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(G-14) For taxable years ending on or after |

insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
|
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
203(c)(2)(G-12) or Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) of this |
Act; |
(G-15) An amount equal to the credit allowable to |

December 31, 2017, an amount equal to the deduction |
allowed under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code |

|
deduction when computing the taxpayer's federal |
taxable income for the taxable year and that is |

taxpayer receives a credit under the Illinois Gives |
Tax Credit Act; |
and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the |
following amounts: |
(H) An amount equal to all amounts included in |
such total pursuant to the provisions of Sections |
402(a), 402(c), 403(a), 403(b), 406(a), 407(a) and 408 |
of the Internal Revenue Code or included in such total |
as distributions under the provisions of any |
retirement or disability plan for employees of any |
governmental agency or unit, or retirement payments to |

the amount exempted shall be the interest net of bond |
premium amortization; |
(L) With the exception of any amounts subtracted |
under subparagraph (K), an amount equal to the sum of |
all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections |
171(a)(2) and 265(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, |
and all amounts of expenses allocable to interest and |
disallowed as deductions by Section 265(a)(1) of the |
Internal Revenue Code; and (ii) for taxable years |
ending on or after August 13, 1999, Sections |
171(a)(2), 265, 280C, and 832(b)(5)(B)(i) of the |
Internal Revenue Code, plus, (iii) for taxable years |
ending on or after December 31, 2011, Section |
45G(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, for |
taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008, |
any amount included in gross income under Section 87 |
of the Internal Revenue Code; the provisions of this |
subparagraph are exempt from the provisions of Section |
250; |
(M) An amount equal to those dividends included in |
such total which were paid by a corporation which |

or religious reasons by Nazi Germany or any other Axis |
regime or as an heir of the victim and (ii) items of |
income, to the extent includible in gross income for |
federal income tax purposes, attributable to, derived |

Germany or any other Axis regime immediately prior to, |
during, and immediately after World War II, including, |
but not limited to, interest on the proceeds |
receivable as insurance under policies issued to a |
victim of persecution for racial or religious reasons |
by Nazi Germany or any other Axis regime by European |
insurance companies immediately prior to and during |
World War II; provided, however, this subtraction from |
federal adjusted gross income does not apply to assets |
acquired with such assets or with the proceeds from |
the sale of such assets; provided, further, this |
paragraph shall only apply to a taxpayer who was the |
first recipient of such assets after their recovery |

religious reasons by Nazi Germany or any other Axis |
regime or as an heir of the victim. The amount of and |
the eligibility for any public assistance, benefit, or |
|
similar entitlement is not affected by the inclusion |
of items (i) and (ii) of this paragraph in gross income |
for federal income tax purposes. This paragraph is |
exempt from the provisions of Section 250; |
(R) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, for the |
taxable year in which the bonus depreciation deduction |
is taken on the taxpayer's federal income tax return |
under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the Internal |
Revenue Code and for each applicable taxable year |
thereafter, an amount equal to "x", where: |
(1) "y" equals the amount of the depreciation |
deduction taken for the taxable year on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return on property |
for which the bonus depreciation deduction was |
taken in any year under subsection (k) of Section |
168 of the Internal Revenue Code, but not |
including the bonus depreciation deduction; |
(2) for taxable years ending on or before |
December 31, 2005, "x" equals "y" multiplied by 30 |
and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied by |
0.429); and |
(3) for taxable years ending after December |
31, 2005: |
(i) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 30% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |
|
30 and then divided by 70 (or "y" multiplied |
by 0.429); |
(ii) for property on which a bonus |
depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted |
basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by |

depreciation deduction of a percentage other |
than 30%, 50% or 100% of the adjusted basis |

by 100 times the percentage bonus depreciation |
on the property (that is, 100(bonus%)) and |
then divided by 100 times 1 minus the |
percentage bonus depreciation on the property |
(that is, 100(1-bonus%)). |
The aggregate amount deducted under this |
|
subparagraph in all taxable years for any one piece of |
property may not exceed the amount of the bonus |
depreciation deduction taken on that property on the |
taxpayer's federal income tax return under subsection |
(k) of Section 168 of the Internal Revenue Code. This |
subparagraph (R) is exempt from the provisions of |

the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (R) and for which the taxpayer was |
required in any taxable year to make an addition |

203(c)(2)(G-12), or 203(d)(2)(D-7), but not to exceed |

outside the United States is 80% or more of that |
person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
|
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304, but not to exceed the |

add back to income the amount subtracted by the |
taxpayer pursuant to this subparagraph (Y). This |
subparagraph (Y) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(Z) For taxable years beginning after December 31, |

paragraph (1) shall be modified by adding thereto the sum |
of the following amounts: |
(A) An amount equal to all amounts paid or accrued |
to the taxpayer as interest or dividends during the |

in the computation of taxable income; |
(B) An amount equal to the amount of tax imposed by |

If the taxpayer continues to own property through |
the last day of the last tax year for which a |
subtraction is allowed with respect to that property |
under subparagraph (O) and for which the taxpayer was |
allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction |
modification under subparagraph (O), then an amount |
equal to that subtraction modification. |
The taxpayer is required to make the addition |
modification under this subparagraph only once with |

person's total business activity and (ii) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2008, to a person |
who would be a member of the same unitary business |
group but for the fact that the person is prohibited |
under Section 1501(a)(27) from being included in the |
unitary business group because he or she is ordinarily |
required to apportion business income under different |
subsections of Section 304. The addition modification |
required by this subparagraph shall be reduced to the |
extent that dividends were included in base income of |
the unitary group for the same taxable year and |
received by the taxpayer or by a member of the |
taxpayer's unitary business group (including amounts |
included in gross income pursuant to Sections 951 |
through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts |
included in gross income under Section 78 of the |
Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the stock of |
the same person to whom the interest was paid, |
accrued, or incurred. |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
|
(i) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such interest; or |
(ii) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer can establish, based on a |
preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person, during the same taxable |
year, paid, accrued, or incurred, the interest |
to a person that is not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
interest expense between the taxpayer and the |
person did not have as a principal purpose the |
avoidance of Illinois income tax, and is paid |
pursuant to a contract or agreement that |
reflects an arm's-length interest rate and |
terms; or |
(iii) the taxpayer can establish, based on |
clear and convincing evidence, that the interest |
paid, accrued, or incurred relates to a contract |
or agreement entered into at arm's-length rates |
and terms and the principal purpose for the |
|
payment is not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; |
or |
(iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, to a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence that the adjustments are unreasonable; or |
if the taxpayer and the Director agree in writing |
to the application or use of an alternative method |
of apportionment under Section 304(f). |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; and |
(D-8) An amount equal to the amount of intangible |
expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a deduction in |
computing base income, and that were paid, accrued, or |
incurred, directly or indirectly, (i) for taxable |
years ending on or after December 31, 2004, to a |
foreign person who would be a member of the same |
unitary business group but for the fact that the |
foreign person's business activity outside the United |
|
States is 80% or more of that person's total business |
activity and (ii) for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, to a person who would be a member of |
the same unitary business group but for the fact that |
the person is prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) |
from being included in the unitary business group |
because he or she is ordinarily required to apportion |
business income under different subsections of Section |
304. The addition modification required by this |
subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that |
dividends were included in base income of the unitary |
group for the same taxable year and received by the |
taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary |
business group (including amounts included in gross |
income pursuant to Sections 951 through 964 of the |
Internal Revenue Code and amounts included in gross |
income under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) |
with respect to the stock of the same person to whom |
the intangible expenses and costs were directly or |
indirectly paid, incurred or accrued. The preceding |
sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same |
dividends caused a reduction to the addition |
modification required under Section 203(d)(2)(D-7) of |
this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term |
"intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses, |
losses, and costs for, or related to, the direct or |
|
indirect acquisition, use, maintenance or management, |
ownership, sale, exchange, or any other disposition of |
intangible property; (2) losses incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from factoring transactions or discounting |
transactions; (3) royalty, patent, technical, and |
copyright fees; (4) licensing fees; and (5) other |
similar expenses and costs. For purposes of this |
subparagraph, "intangible property" includes patents, |
patent applications, trade names, trademarks, service |
marks, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets, and |
similar types of intangible assets; |
This paragraph shall not apply to the following: |
(i) any item of intangible expenses or costs |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person who |
is subject in a foreign country or state, other |
than a state which requires mandatory unitary |
reporting, to a tax on or measured by net income |
with respect to such item; or |
(ii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based |
on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the |
following: |
(a) the person during the same taxable |
year paid, accrued, or incurred, the |
|
intangible expense or cost to a person that is |
not a related member, and |
(b) the transaction giving rise to the |
intangible expense or cost between the |
taxpayer and the person did not have as a |
principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois |
income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract |
or agreement that reflects arm's-length terms; |
or |
(iii) any item of intangible expense or cost |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or |
indirectly, from a transaction with a person if |
the taxpayer establishes by clear and convincing |
evidence, that the adjustments are unreasonable; |
or if the taxpayer and the Director agree in |
writing to the application or use of an |
alternative method of apportionment under Section |
304(f); |
Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the |
Director from making any other adjustment |
otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act |
for any tax year beginning after the effective |
date of this amendment provided such adjustment is |
made pursuant to regulation adopted by the |
Department and such regulations provide methods |
and standards by which the Department will utilize |
|
its authority under Section 404 of this Act; |
(D-9) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2008, an amount equal to the amount of |
insurance premium expenses and costs otherwise allowed |
as a deduction in computing base income, and that were |
paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to |
a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |
prohibited under Section 1501(a)(27) from being |
included in the unitary business group because he or |
she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304. The |
addition modification required by this subparagraph |
shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were |
included in base income of the unitary group for the |
same taxable year and received by the taxpayer or by a |
member of the taxpayer's unitary business group |
(including amounts included in gross income under |
Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code |
and amounts included in gross income under Section 78 |
of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect to the |
stock of the same person to whom the premiums and costs |
were directly or indirectly paid, incurred, or |
accrued. The preceding sentence does not apply to the |
extent that the same dividends caused a reduction to |
the addition modification required under Section |
|
203(d)(2)(D-7) or Section 203(d)(2)(D-8) of this Act; |
(D-10) An amount equal to the credit allowable to |
the taxpayer under Section 218(a) of this Act, |
determined without regard to Section 218(c) of this |
Act; |
(D-11) For taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 2017, an amount equal to the deduction |

deduction when computing the taxpayer's federal |
taxable income for the taxable year and that is |
attributable to an endowment gift for which the |
taxpayer receives a credit under the Illinois Gives |
Tax Credit Act; |
and by deducting from the total so obtained the following |
amounts: |
(E) The valuation limitation amount; |
(F) An amount equal to the amount of any tax |
imposed by this Act which was refunded to the taxpayer |
and included in such total for the taxable year; |
(G) An amount equal to all amounts included in |
taxable income as modified by subparagraphs (A), (B), |
(C) and (D) which are exempt from taxation by this |
State either by reason of its statutes or Constitution |
or by reason of the Constitution, treaties or statutes |
|
of the United States; provided that, in the case of any |
statute of this State that exempts income derived from |
bonds or other obligations from the tax imposed under |
this Act, the amount exempted shall be the interest |
net of bond premium amortization; |
(H) Any income of the partnership which |
constitutes personal service income as defined in |
Section 1348(b)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code (as in |
effect December 31, 1981) or a reasonable allowance |
for compensation paid or accrued for services rendered |
by partners to the partnership, whichever is greater; |
this subparagraph (H) is exempt from the provisions of |
Section 250; |
(I) An amount equal to all amounts of income |
distributable to an entity subject to the Personal |

(O) For taxable years 2001 and thereafter, for the |
taxable year in which the bonus depreciation deduction |
is taken on the taxpayer's federal income tax return |
under subsection (k) of Section 168 of the Internal |

a person who would be a member of the same unitary |
business group but for the fact that the person is |

she is ordinarily required to apportion business |
income under different subsections of Section 304, but |
not to exceed the addition modification required to be |

insurance company equal to the amount of the expense |
or loss (including expenses incurred by the insurance |
company) that would have been taken into account as a |
deduction for federal income tax purposes if the |
expense or loss had been uninsured. If a taxpayer |
makes the election provided for by this subparagraph |
(T), the insurer to which the premiums were paid must |
add back to income the amount subtracted by the |
taxpayer pursuant to this subparagraph (T). This |
subparagraph (T) is exempt from the provisions of |
|
Section 250; and |
(U) For taxable years beginning on or after |

Revenue Code for the taxable year and that would not be |
added back under this subsection. The provisions of |
this subparagraph (U) are exempt from the provisions |
of Section 250. |
(e) Gross income; adjusted gross income; taxable income. |
(1) In general. Subject to the provisions of paragraph |
(2) and subsection (b)(3), for purposes of this Section |
and Section 803(e), a taxpayer's gross income, adjusted |
gross income, or taxable income for the taxable year shall |
mean the amount of gross income, adjusted gross income or |
taxable income properly reportable for federal income tax |
purposes for the taxable year under the provisions of the |
Internal Revenue Code. Taxable income may be less than |
zero. However, for taxable years ending on or after |
December 31, 1986, net operating loss carryforwards from |
|
taxable years ending prior to December 31, 1986, may not |
exceed the sum of federal taxable income for the taxable |
year before net operating loss deduction, plus the excess |
of addition modifications over subtraction modifications |
for the taxable year. For taxable years ending prior to |
December 31, 1986, taxable income may never be an amount |
in excess of the net operating loss for the taxable year as |
defined in subsections (c) and (d) of Section 172 of the |
Internal Revenue Code, provided that when taxable income |
of a corporation (other than a Subchapter S corporation), |
trust, or estate is less than zero and addition |
modifications, other than those provided by subparagraph |
(E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (b) for corporations or |
subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) for |
trusts and estates, exceed subtraction modifications, an |
addition modification must be made under those |
subparagraphs for any other taxable year to which the |
taxable income less than zero (net operating loss) is |
applied under Section 172 of the Internal Revenue Code or |
under subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of this subsection |
(e) applied in conjunction with Section 172 of the |
Internal Revenue Code. |
(2) Special rule. For purposes of paragraph (1) of |
this subsection, the taxable income properly reportable |
for federal income tax purposes shall mean: |
(A) Certain life insurance companies. In the case |
|
of a life insurance company subject to the tax imposed |
by Section 801 of the Internal Revenue Code, life |
insurance company taxable income, plus the amount of |
distribution from pre-1984 policyholder surplus |
accounts as calculated under Section 815a of the |
Internal Revenue Code; |
(B) Certain other insurance companies. In the case |
of mutual insurance companies subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
insurance company taxable income; |
(C) Regulated investment companies. In the case of |
a regulated investment company subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 852 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
investment company taxable income; |
(D) Real estate investment trusts. In the case of |
a real estate investment trust subject to the tax |
imposed by Section 857 of the Internal Revenue Code, |
real estate investment trust taxable income; |
(E) Consolidated corporations. In the case of a |
corporation which is a member of an affiliated group |
of corporations filing a consolidated income tax |
return for the taxable year for federal income tax |
purposes, taxable income determined as if such |
corporation had filed a separate return for federal |
income tax purposes for the taxable year and each |
preceding taxable year for which it was a member of an |
|
affiliated group. For purposes of this subparagraph, |
the taxpayer's separate taxable income shall be |
determined as if the election provided by Section |
243(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code had been in |
effect for all such years; |
(F) Cooperatives. In the case of a cooperative |
corporation or association, the taxable income of such |
organization determined in accordance with the |
provisions of Section 1381 through 1388 of the |
Internal Revenue Code, but without regard to the |
prohibition against offsetting losses from patronage |
activities against income from nonpatronage |
activities; except that a cooperative corporation or |
association may make an election to follow its federal |
income tax treatment of patronage losses and |
nonpatronage losses. In the event such election is |
made, such losses shall be computed and carried over |
in a manner consistent with subsection (a) of Section |
207 of this Act and apportioned by the apportionment |
factor reported by the cooperative on its Illinois |
income tax return filed for the taxable year in which |
the losses are incurred. The election shall be |
effective for all taxable years with original returns |
due on or after the date of the election. In addition, |
the cooperative may file an amended return or returns, |
as allowed under this Act, to provide that the |
|
election shall be effective for losses incurred or |
carried forward for taxable years occurring prior to |
the date of the election. Once made, the election may |
only be revoked upon approval of the Director. The |
Department shall adopt rules setting forth |
requirements for documenting the elections and any |
resulting Illinois net loss and the standards to be |
used by the Director in evaluating requests to revoke |
elections. Public Act 96-932 is declaratory of |
existing law; |
(G) Subchapter S corporations. In the case of: (i) |
a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in |
effect an election for the taxable year under Section |
1362 of the Internal Revenue Code, the taxable income |
of such corporation determined in accordance with |
Section 1363(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, except |
that taxable income shall take into account those |
items which are required by Section 1363(b)(1) of the |
Internal Revenue Code to be separately stated; and |
(ii) a Subchapter S corporation for which there is in |
effect a federal election to opt out of the provisions |
of the Subchapter S Revision Act of 1982 and have |
applied instead the prior federal Subchapter S rules |
as in effect on July 1, 1982, the taxable income of |
such corporation determined in accordance with the |
federal Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, |
|
1982; and |
(H) Partnerships. In the case of a partnership, |
taxable income determined in accordance with Section |
703 of the Internal Revenue Code, except that taxable |
income shall take into account those items which are |
required by Section 703(a)(1) to be separately stated |
but which would be taken into account by an individual |
in calculating his taxable income. |
(3) Recapture of business expenses on disposition of |
asset or business. Notwithstanding any other law to the |
contrary, if in prior years income from an asset or |
business has been classified as business income and in a |
later year is demonstrated to be non-business income, then |
all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later |
year and in the 2 immediately preceding taxable years |
related to that asset or business that generated the |
non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as |
business income in the year of the disposition of the |
asset or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to |
Illinois using the greater of the apportionment fraction |
computed for the business under Section 304 of this Act |
for the taxable year or the average of the apportionment |
fractions computed for the business under Section 304 of |
this Act for the taxable year and for the 2 immediately |
preceding taxable years. |
|
(f) Valuation limitation amount. |
(1) In general. The valuation limitation amount |
referred to in subsections (a)(2)(G), (c)(2)(I) and |
(d)(2)(E) is an amount equal to: |
(A) The sum of the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amounts (to the extent consisting of gain reportable |
under the provisions of Section 1245 or 1250 of the |
Internal Revenue Code) for all property in respect of |
which such gain was reported for the taxable year; |
plus |
(B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1, |
1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of |
capital gain) for all property in respect of which |
such gain was reported for federal income tax purposes |
for the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for |
the taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount |
of such gain included in the amount determined under |
subsection (a)(2)(F) or (c)(2)(H). |
(2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount. |
(A) If the fair market value of property referred |
to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on |
August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amount for such property is the lesser of (i) the |
excess of such fair market value over the taxpayer's |
basis (for determining gain) for such property on that |
date (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in |
|
effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized |
and reportable for federal income tax purposes in |
respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of |
such property. |
(B) If the fair market value of property referred |
to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on |
August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation |
amount for such property is that amount which bears |
the same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of |
the property for federal income tax purposes for the |
taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in |
that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the |
property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of |
full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding |
period for the property. |
(C) The Department shall prescribe such |
regulations as may be necessary to carry out the |
purposes of this paragraph. |
(g) Double deductions. Unless specifically provided |
otherwise, nothing in this Section shall permit the same item |
to be deducted more than once. |
(h) Legislative intention. Except as expressly provided by |
this Section there shall be no modifications or limitations on |
the amounts of income, gain, loss or deduction taken into |
|
account in determining gross income, adjusted gross income or |
taxable income for federal income tax purposes for the taxable |
year, or in the amount of such items entering into the |
computation of base income and net income under this Act for |
such taxable year, whether in respect of property values as of |
August 1, 1969 or otherwise. |

Sec. 241. The Illinois Gives tax credit. |
(a) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2025 |
and ending before January 1, 2030, each taxpayer for whom a tax |
credit has been authorized by the Department of Revenue under |
the Illinois Gives Tax Credit Act is entitled to a credit |
against the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of |
Section 201 in an amount equal to the amount authorized under |
that Act. |
(b) For partners of partnerships and shareholders of |
Subchapter S corporations, there is allowed a credit under |
this Section to be determined in accordance with Section 251 |
of this Act. |
(c) The credit may not be carried back and may not reduce |
the taxpayer's liability to less than zero. If the amount of |
|
the credit exceeds the tax liability for the year, the excess |
may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the |
5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The tax |
credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which there is |
a tax liability. If there are credits for more than one year |
that are available to offset a liability, the earlier credit |
shall be applied first. |
ARTICLE 175. |
Section 175-5. The Property Tax Code is amended by |
changing Section 18-185 as follows: |
(35 ILCS 200/18-185) |
Sec. 18-185. Short title; definitions. This Division 5 |
may be cited as the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. As |
used in this Division 5: |
"Consumer Price Index" means the Consumer Price Index for |
All Urban Consumers for all items published by the United |
States Department of Labor. |
"Extension limitation" means (a) the lesser of 5% or the |
percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index during the |
12-month calendar year preceding the levy year or (b) the rate |
of increase approved by voters under Section 18-205. |
"Affected county" means a county of 3,000,000 or more |
inhabitants or a county contiguous to a county of 3,000,000 or |

1-150, except as otherwise provided in this Section. For the |

counties contiguous to a county with 3,000,000 or more |

district" includes only each non-home rule taxing district |
subject to this Law before the 1995 levy year and each non-home |
rule taxing district not subject to this Law before the 1995 |
levy year having the majority of its 1994 equalized assessed |
value in an affected county or counties. Beginning with the |
levy year in which this Law becomes applicable to a taxing |
district as provided in Section 18-213, "taxing district" also |
includes those taxing districts made subject to this Law as |
provided in Section 18-213. |
"Aggregate extension" for taxing districts to which this |
Law applied before the 1995 levy year means the annual |

purpose extensions that are made annually for the taxing |
district, excluding special purpose extensions: (a) made for |
the taxing district to pay interest or principal on general |
obligation bonds that were approved by referendum; (b) made |
for any taxing district to pay interest or principal on |
general obligation bonds issued before October 1, 1991; (c) |
|
made for any taxing district to pay interest or principal on |
bonds issued to refund or continue to refund those bonds |

refund or continue to refund bonds issued after October 1, |
1991 that were approved by referendum; (e) made for any taxing |
district to pay interest or principal on revenue bonds issued |
before October 1, 1991 for payment of which a property tax levy |
or the full faith and credit of the unit of local government is |

principal on those bonds shall be made only after the |
governing body of the unit of local government finds that all |
other sources for payment are insufficient to make those |

lease when the lease payments are for the retirement of bonds |

contributed by the Special Education District of Lake County |
to the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund under Article 7 of |
the Illinois Pension Code; the amount of any extension under |
this item (k) shall be certified by the school district to the |

recreational programs for persons with disabilities under |
Section 5-8 of the Park District Code or Section 11-95-14 of |

subject to paragraph (2) of subsection (e) of Section 18-213, |
for the levy year in which the referendum making this Law |
applicable to the taxing district is held, or for those taxing |
districts subject to this Law in accordance with paragraph (2) |
of subsection (e) of Section 18-213 for the 1996 levy year, |
constituting an extension for payment of principal and |
interest on bonds issued by the taxing district without |
referendum, but not including excluded non-referendum bonds. |
For park districts (i) that were first subject to this Law in |
1991 or 1995 and (ii) whose extension for the 1994 levy year |
for the payment of principal and interest on bonds issued by |
the park district without referendum (but not including |
excluded non-referendum bonds) was less than 51% of the amount |
for the 1991 levy year constituting an extension for payment |
of principal and interest on bonds issued by the park district |
without referendum (but not including excluded non-referendum |
bonds), "debt service extension base" means an amount equal to |

A debt service extension base established or increased at any |
time pursuant to any provision of this Law, except Section |
18-212, shall be increased each year commencing with the later |

this Law becomes applicable to the taxing district, by the |
lesser of 5% or the percentage increase in the Consumer Price |
Index during the 12-month calendar year preceding the levy |
year. The debt service extension base may be established or |
increased as provided under Section 18-212. "Excluded |
non-referendum bonds" means (i) bonds authorized by Public Act |
88-503 and issued under Section 20a of the Chicago Park |
District Act for aquarium and museum projects; (ii) bonds |
issued under Section 15 of the Local Government Debt Reform |
Act; or (iii) refunding obligations issued to refund or to |

referendum. |
"Special purpose extensions" include, but are not limited |
to, extensions for levies made on an annual basis for |
unemployment and workers' compensation, self-insurance, |
contributions to pension plans, and extensions made pursuant |
to Section 6-601 of the Illinois Highway Code for a road |
district's permanent road fund whether levied annually or not. |

"Aggregate extension base" means the taxing district's |
last preceding aggregate extension as adjusted under Sections |
18-135, 18-215, 18-230, 18-206, and 18-233. Beginning with |
levy year 2022, for taxing districts that are specified in |
Section 18-190.7, the taxing district's aggregate extension |
base shall be calculated as provided in Section 18-190.7. An |
adjustment under Section 18-135 shall be made for the 2007 |
levy year and all subsequent levy years whenever one or more |
counties within which a taxing district is located (i) used |
estimated valuations or rates when extending taxes in the |
taxing district for the last preceding levy year that resulted |
in the over or under extension of taxes, or (ii) increased or |
decreased the tax extension for the last preceding levy year |
as required by Section 18-135(c). Whenever an adjustment is |
required under Section 18-135, the aggregate extension base of |
the taxing district shall be equal to the amount that the |
aggregate extension of the taxing district would have been for |
the last preceding levy year if either or both (i) actual, |
rather than estimated, valuations or rates had been used to |
calculate the extension of taxes for the last levy year, or |
(ii) the tax extension for the last preceding levy year had not |
been adjusted as required by subsection (c) of Section 18-135. |
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for levy year |
2012, the aggregate extension base for West Northfield School |
District No. 31 in Cook County shall be $12,654,592. |
|
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for levy year |
2022, the aggregate extension base of a home equity assurance |
program that levied at least $1,000,000 in property taxes in |
levy year 2019 or 2020 under the Home Equity Assurance Act |
shall be the amount that the program's aggregate extension |
base for levy year 2021 would have been if the program had |
levied a property tax for levy year 2021. |
"Levy year" has the same meaning as "year" under Section |
1-155. |
"New property" means (i) the assessed value, after final |
board of review or board of appeals action, of new |
improvements or additions to existing improvements on any |
parcel of real property that increase the assessed value of |
that real property during the levy year multiplied by the |
equalization factor issued by the Department under Section |
17-30, (ii) the assessed value, after final board of review or |
board of appeals action, of real property not exempt from real |
estate taxation, which real property was exempt from real |
estate taxation for any portion of the immediately preceding |
levy year, multiplied by the equalization factor issued by the |
Department under Section 17-30, including the assessed value, |
upon final stabilization of occupancy after new construction |
is complete, of any real property located within the |
boundaries of an otherwise or previously exempt military |
reservation that is intended for residential use and owned by |
or leased to a private corporation or other entity, (iii) in |
|
counties that classify in accordance with Section 4 of Article |
IX of the Illinois Constitution, an incentive property's |
additional assessed value resulting from a scheduled increase |
in the level of assessment as applied to the first year final |
board of review market value, and (iv) any increase in |
assessed value due to oil or gas production from an oil or gas |
well required to be permitted under the Hydraulic Fracturing |
Regulatory Act that was not produced in or accounted for |
during the previous levy year. In addition, the county clerk |
in a county containing a population of 3,000,000 or more shall |
include in the 1997 recovered tax increment value for any |
school district, any recovered tax increment value that was |
applicable to the 1995 tax year calculations. |
"Qualified airport authority" means an airport authority |
organized under the Airport Authorities Act and located in a |
county bordering on the State of Wisconsin and having a |
population in excess of 200,000 and not greater than 500,000. |
"Recovered tax increment value" means, except as otherwise |
provided in this paragraph, the amount of the current year's |
equalized assessed value, in the first year after a |
municipality terminates the designation of an area as a |
redevelopment project area previously established under the |
Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment Act in the Illinois |
Municipal Code, previously established under the Industrial |
Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously |
established under the Economic Development Project Area Tax |
|
Increment Act of 1995, or previously established under the |
Economic Development Area Tax Increment Allocation Act, of |
each taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property in |
the redevelopment project area over and above the initial |
equalized assessed value of each property in the redevelopment |
project area. For the taxes which are extended for the 1997 |
levy year, the recovered tax increment value for a non-home |
rule taxing district that first became subject to this Law for |
the 1995 levy year because a majority of its 1994 equalized |
assessed value was in an affected county or counties shall be |
increased if a municipality terminated the designation of an |
area in 1993 as a redevelopment project area previously |
established under the Tax Increment Allocation Redevelopment |
Act in the Illinois Municipal Code, previously established |
under the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois |
Municipal Code, or previously established under the Economic |
Development Area Tax Increment Allocation Act, by an amount |
equal to the 1994 equalized assessed value of each taxable |
lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property in the |
redevelopment project area over and above the initial |
equalized assessed value of each property in the redevelopment |
project area. In the first year after a municipality removes a |
taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property from a |
redevelopment project area established under the Tax Increment |
Allocation Redevelopment Act in the Illinois Municipal Code, |
the Industrial Jobs Recovery Law in the Illinois Municipal |
|
Code, or the Economic Development Area Tax Increment |
Allocation Act, "recovered tax increment value" means the |
amount of the current year's equalized assessed value of each |
taxable lot, block, tract, or parcel of real property removed |
from the redevelopment project area over and above the initial |
equalized assessed value of that real property before removal |
from the redevelopment project area. |
Except as otherwise provided in this Section, "limiting |
rate" means a fraction the numerator of which is the last |
preceding aggregate extension base times an amount equal to |
one plus the extension limitation defined in this Section and |
the denominator of which is the current year's equalized |
assessed value of all real property in the territory under the |
jurisdiction of the taxing district during the prior levy |
year. For those taxing districts that reduced their aggregate |
extension for the last preceding levy year, except for school |
districts that reduced their extension for educational |
purposes pursuant to Section 18-206, the highest aggregate |
extension in any of the last 3 preceding levy years shall be |
used for the purpose of computing the limiting rate. The |
denominator shall not include new property or the recovered |
tax increment value. If a new rate, a rate decrease, or a |
limiting rate increase has been approved at an election held |
after March 21, 2006, then (i) the otherwise applicable |
limiting rate shall be increased by the amount of the new rate |
or shall be reduced by the amount of the rate decrease, as the |
|
case may be, or (ii) in the case of a limiting rate increase, |
the limiting rate shall be equal to the rate set forth in the |
proposition approved by the voters for each of the years |
specified in the proposition, after which the limiting rate of |
the taxing district shall be calculated as otherwise provided. |
In the case of a taxing district that obtained referendum |
approval for an increased limiting rate on March 20, 2012, the |
limiting rate for tax year 2012 shall be the rate that |
generates the approximate total amount of taxes extendable for |
that tax year, as set forth in the proposition approved by the |
voters; this rate shall be the final rate applied by the county |
clerk for the aggregate of all capped funds of the district for |
tax year 2012. |

(405 ILCS 20/3a) (from Ch. 91 1/2, par. 303a) |
Sec. 3a. Every governmental unit authorized to levy an |
annual tax under any of the provisions of this Act shall, |
before it may levy such tax, establish a 7 member community |
mental health board who shall administer this Act. Such board |
|
shall be appointed by the chairman of the governing body of a |
county, the mayor of a city, the president of a village, the |
president of an incorporated town, or the supervisor of a |
township, as the case may be, with the advice and consent of |
the governing body of such county, city, village, incorporated |
town or the town board of trustees of any township , except in |
any county with a county executive form of government, if |
applicable, the county executive shall appoint the board with |
the advice and consent of the county board . Members of the |
community mental health board shall be residents of the |
government unit and, as nearly as possible, be representative |
of interested groups of the community such as local health |
departments, medical societies, local comprehensive health |
planning agencies, hospital boards, lay associations concerned |
with mental health, developmental disabilities and substance |
abuse, and individuals with professional or lived expertise in |
mental health, developmental disabilities, and substance abuse |
as well as the general public . General public representation |
may also be considered for appointment when there are gaps in |
board duties and qualifications that cannot be filled from the |
above stated categories. Only one member shall be a member of |
the governing body, with the term of membership on the board to |
run concurrently with the elected term of the member. The |
chairman of the governing body may, upon the request of the |
community mental health board, appoint 2 additional members to |
the community mental health board. No member of the community |
|
mental health board may be a full-time or part-time employee |
of the Department of Human Services or a board member, |
employee or any other individual receiving compensation from |
any facility or service operating under contract to the board. |
If a successful referendum is held under Section 5 of this Act, |
all members of such board shall be appointed within 60 days |
after the local election authority certifies the passage of |
the referendum. If a community mental health board has been |
established by a county with a population of less than 500,000 |
and the community mental health board is funded in whole or in |
part by a special mental health sales tax described in |
paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of Section 5-1006.5 of the |
Counties Code, the largest municipality in the county with at |
least 125,000 residents may appoint 2 additional members to |
the board. The members shall be appointed by the mayor of the |
municipality with the advice and consent of the municipality's |
governing body. |
Home rule units are exempt from this Act. However, they |
may, by ordinance, adopt the provisions of this Act, or any |
portion thereof, that they may deem advisable. |
The tax rate set forth in Section 4 may be levied by any |
non-home rule unit only pursuant to the approval by the voters |
at a referendum. Such referendum may have been held at any time |
subsequent to the effective date of the Community Mental |
Health Act. |

mental health board shall be for 4 years, provided, however, |
that of the members first appointed, 2 shall be appointed for a |
term of 2 years, 2 for a term of 3 years and 3 for a term of 4 |
years. All terms shall be measured from the first day of the |
month of appointment. Vacancies shall be filled for the |
unexpired term in the same manner as original appointments. A |
community mental health board may provide advice to the |
governing body and may establish a policy and procedure for |
the acceptance and review of applications from interested |
residents prior to making a recommendation to the appointing |
authority. |

facilities and services, including facilities and services for |
the person with a developmental disability or a substance use |
disorder, the governing body of any governmental unit, subject |
to the provisions of Section 5, may levy an annual tax of not |

governmental unit at the value thereof, as equalized or |
assessed by the Department of Revenue. Such tax shall be |
levied and collected in the same manner as other governmental |
unit taxes, but shall not be included in any limitation |
otherwise prescribed as to the rate or amount of governmental |
unit taxes, but shall be in addition thereto and in excess |
thereof. |

Section is separate and distinct from all other property taxes |
levied by that governmental unit and (1) shall not be |
considered an increase for purposes of the application of the |

|
When collected, such tax shall be paid into a special fund |
to be designated as the "Community Mental Health Fund" which |
shall, upon authorization by the appropriate governmental |
unit, be administered by the community mental health board and |
used only for the purposes specified in this Act. Nothing |
contained herein shall in any way preclude the use of other |

authorized by this Act. |

a substance use disorder, in the community and so instructs |
the clerk of the governmental unit such clerk shall certify |
the proposition to the proper election officials for |
submission at a regular election in accordance with the |
general election law. The proposition shall be in |

levy year the approximate amount of the additional tax |
extendable against property containing a single family |
residence and having a fair market value at the time of the |
referendum of $100,000 is estimated to be $.... |
If a proposition contains the language in substantially |
the form provided above the referendum is valid |
notwithstanding any other provision of the law. If the |
governmental unit is also subject to the Property Tax |
Extension Limitation Law, then the proposition shall also |
comply with the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law. |
Notwithstanding any provision of this subsection, any |
referendum imposing an annual tax on or after January 1, 1994 |
|
and prior to the effective date of this amendatory Act of the |
103rd General Assembly that complies with subsection (a) is |
hereby validated. |
(b) If a majority of all the votes cast upon the |
proposition are for the levy of such tax, the governing body of |
such governmental unit shall thereafter annually levy a tax |
not to exceed the rate set forth in Section 4. Thereafter, the |
governing body shall in the annual appropriation bill |
appropriate from such funds such sum or sums of money as may be |
deemed necessary by the community mental health board, based |
upon the community mental health board's budget, the board's |
annual mental health report, and the local mental health plan |
to defray necessary expenses and liabilities in providing for |
such community mental health facilities and services. |
(c) If the governing body of a governmental unit levies a |
tax under Section 4 of this Act and the rate specified in the |
proposition under subsection (a) of this Section is less than |
0.15%, then the governing body of the governmental unit may, |
upon referendum approval, increase that rate to not more than |
0.15%. The governing body shall instruct the clerk of the |
governmental unit to certify the proposition to the proper |
election officials for submission at a regular election in |
accordance with the general election law. The proposition |
shall be in the following form: |
"Shall the tax imposed by (governmental unit) for the |
purpose of providing community mental health facilities |
|
and services, including facilities and services for |
persons with a developmental disability or substance use |
disorder be increased to (not more than 0.15%)?" |
If a majority of all the votes cast upon the proposition |
are for the increase of the tax, then the governing body of the |
governmental unit may thereafter annually levy a tax not to |
exceed the rate set forth in the referendum question. Nothing |
in this Section prevents a governmental unit from levying less |
than the amount approved by the voters via referendum in any |
given year or varying the amount levied from year to year as |
approved by the governmental unit. |
