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

(a) For the privilege of holding a license to operate sports wagering under this Act, this State shall impose and collect 15% of a master sports wagering licensee's adjusted gross sports wagering receipts from sports wagering. The accrual method of accounting shall be used for purposes of calculating the amount of the tax owed by the licensee. The taxes levied and collected pursuant to this subsection (a) are due and payable to the Board no later than the last day of the month following the calendar month in which the adjusted gross sports wagering receipts were received and the tax obligation was accrued. (a-5) In addition to the tax imposed under subsection (a) of this Section, for the privilege of holding a license to operate sports wagering under this Act, the State shall impose and collect 2% of the adjusted gross receipts from sports wagers that are placed within a home rule county with a population of over 3,000,000 inhabitants, which shall be paid, subject to appropriation from the General Assembly, from the Sports Wagering Fund to that home rule county for the purpose of enhancing the county's criminal justice system. (b) The Sports Wagering Fund is hereby created as a special fund in the State treasury. Except as otherwise provided in this Act, all moneys collected under this Act by the Board shall be deposited into the Sports Wagering Fund. On the 25th of each month, any moneys remaining in the Sports Wagering Fund in excess of the anticipated monthly expenditures from the Fund through the next month, as certified by the Board to the State Comptroller, shall be transferred by the State Comptroller and the State Treasurer to the Capital Projects Fund. (c) Beginning with July 2021, and on a monthly basis thereafter, the Board shall certify to the State Comptroller the amount of license fees collected in the month for initial licenses issued under this Act, except for occupational licenses.
