| HOUSE RESOLUTION
|
| 2 |
| WHEREAS, The Department of Revenue has a legitimate need |
| 3 |
| for information from individual taxpayers to enable the |
| 4 |
| Department to monitor taxpayer compliance with various State |
| 5 |
| laws, and the Department customarily gathers much of this |
| 6 |
| information through forms and disclosures that individual |
| 7 |
| taxpayers must file with the Department by mandated calendar |
| 8 |
| dates; and
|
| 9 |
| WHEREAS, The federal government's Internal Revenue Service |
| 10 |
| and allied federal agencies often require parallel information |
| 11 |
| from many individual taxpayers and often require taxpayers to |
| 12 |
| file parallel tax forms with the federal government, also by |
| 13 |
| mandated calendar dates; and
|
| 14 |
| WHEREAS, Taxpayer filing calendar deadlines enforced upon |
| 15 |
| individual taxpayers by the Department of Revenue often do not |
| 16 |
| conform with parallel deadlines enforced upon individual |
| 17 |
| taxpayers by the federal government; and
|
| 18 |
| WHEREAS, The lack of coordination between the taxpayer form |
| 19 |
| filing deadlines enforced by the Department of Revenue and the |
| 20 |
| federal Internal Revenue Service imposes vexatious and |
| 21 |
| unnecessarily burdensome operating expenses on the lives and |
| 22 |
| budgets of individual Illinois taxpayers; therefore, be it
|
| 23 |
| RESOLVED, BY THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE |
| 24 |
| NINETY-THIRD GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, that |
| 25 |
| the Department of Revenue shall undertake a comprehensive study |
| 26 |
| of its current individual taxpayer filing deadline calendar, |
| 27 |
| with the goal of reconciling as many of the filing deadlines |
| 28 |
| imposed upon individual taxpayers by the State and federal |
| 29 |
| governments as possible; and be it further
|
| 30 |
| RESOLVED, That when these reconciliations can be performed |
