A BILL FOR

 

SB3189LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1    AN ACT concerning revenue.
 
2    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3represented in the General Assembly:
 
4    Section 5. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing Section 9
5as follows:
 
6    (35 ILCS 105/9)  (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9)
7    Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,
8and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency
9of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect
10the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the
11amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time
12when he is required to file his return for the period during
13which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to
14January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5
15per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to
16reimburse the retailer for expenses incurred in collecting the
17tax, keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting
18the tax and supplying data to the Department on request. The
19discount under this Section is not allowed for the 1.25%
20portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel that is subject to the
21revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C.
2247133. In the case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a
23transaction by transaction basis, as provided in this Section,

 

 

SB3189- 2 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1such discount shall be taken with each such tax remittance
2instead of when such retailer files his periodic return. The
3discount allowed under this Section is allowed only for
4returns that are filed in the manner required by this Act. The
5Department may disallow the discount for retailers whose
6certificate of registration is revoked at the time the return
7is filed, but only if the Department's decision to revoke the
8certificate of registration has become final. A retailer need
9not remit that part of any tax collected by him to the extent
10that he is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed by
11the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the sale of
12the same property.
13    Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
14conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
15wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
16extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
17filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor
18vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
19to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for
20each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of
21the selling price actually received during such tax return
22period.
23    Except as provided in this Section, on or before the
24twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file
25a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return shall
26be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and shall

 

 

SB3189- 3 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1furnish such information as the Department may reasonably
2require. On and after January 1, 2018, except for returns
3required to be filed prior to January 1, 2023 for motor
4vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
5to be registered with an agency of this State, with respect to
6retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more,
7all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be
8filed electronically. On and after January 1, 2023, with
9respect to retailers whose annual gross receipts average
10$20,000 or more, all returns required to be filed pursuant to
11this Act, including, but not limited to, returns for motor
12vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
13to be registered with an agency of this State, shall be filed
14electronically. Retailers who demonstrate that they do not
15have access to the Internet or demonstrate hardship in filing
16electronically may petition the Department to waive the
17electronic filing requirement.
18    The Department may require returns to be filed on a
19quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar
20quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the
21calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The
22taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each
23of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before
24the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating:
25        1. The name of the seller;
26        2. The address of the principal place of business from

2    personal property at retail in this State;
3        3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by
4    him during the preceding calendar month from sales of
5    tangible personal property by him during such preceding
6    calendar month, including receipts from charge and time
7    sales, but less all deductions allowed by law;
8        4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this
9    Act;
10        5. The amount of tax due;
11        5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and
12        6. Such other reasonable information as the Department
13    may require.
14    Each retailer required or authorized to collect the tax
15imposed by this Act on aviation fuel sold at retail in this
16State during the preceding calendar month shall, instead of
17reporting and paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise
18required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate
19aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the
20return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section.
21Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the
22contrary, retailers collecting tax on aviation fuel shall file
23all aviation fuel tax returns and shall make all aviation fuel

2complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the
3Department each month by the 20th day of the month next
4following the month during which such tax liability is
5incurred and shall make payments to the Department on or
6before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during
7which such liability is incurred. On and after October 1,
82000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the
9Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
10the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was
11$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar

14during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
15payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
16last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.
17If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began
18prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount
19equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month
20or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the
21average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department
22for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the
23month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability
24in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax
25liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985, and
26prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount

 

 

SB3189- 8 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
2month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
3calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during
4which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
5January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment
6shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
7liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability
8for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month
9during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
10January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or
11after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal
12to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
1325% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of
14the preceding year. If the month during which such tax
15liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and
16prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount
17equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
18month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar
19month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual
20liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount
21of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
22final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month.
23Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
24the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall
25continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
26the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar

 

 

SB3189- 9 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
2month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
3taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
4computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
5calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
6taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
7the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
8to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
9reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000
10threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
11Department for change in such taxpayer's reporting status. On
12and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
13the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall
14continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
15the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
16quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
17month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such
18taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
19computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
20calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a
21taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
22the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
23to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
24reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000
25threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
26Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.

 

 

SB3189- 10 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status
2unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not
3likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is
4not paid at the time or in the amount required by this Section,
5then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest
6on the difference between the minimum amount due and the
7amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and timely
8paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
9payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
10minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
11The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
12govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
13payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
14monthly basis.
15    If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
16the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
17Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
18Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
19the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
20no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
21memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
22in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
23taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
24similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax
25Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
26in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be

 

 

SB3189- 11 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
2payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
3after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
4unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,
5the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
6liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
7Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
8the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
9accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
10the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
11all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
12taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
13be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
14credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
15liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
16    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
17return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
18the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
19authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
20with the return for January, February, and March of a given
21year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
22April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
23such year; with the return for July, August and September of a
24given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the
25return for October, November and December of a given year
26being due by January 20 of the following year.

 

 

SB3189- 12 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or
2quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
3liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the
4Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
5basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20
6of the following year.
7    Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
8substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as
9monthly returns.
10    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
11the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
12case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
13which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
14such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
15Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
16business.
17    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
18aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
19an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this
20Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal
21property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be
22prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return
23for each such item of tangible personal property which the
24retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a
25retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers
26transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or

 

 

SB3189- 13 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
2trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer
3of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
4more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
5to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as
6provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may
7report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor
8vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the
9Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
10return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means
11a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section
123-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal
13watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
14    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
15aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
16an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the
17business of leasing or renting such items and who, in
18connection with such business, sells any such item to a
19retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any
20other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to
21meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting
22the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles,
23or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the
24Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
25return form on or before the 20th of the month following the
26month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any

 

 

SB3189- 14 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed
2under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the
3manner and form as required by the Department.
4    The transaction reporting return in the case of motor
5vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with
6an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the
7Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
8Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller;
9the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the
10selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
11traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
12for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
13extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for
14the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
15deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
16price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
17such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
18purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
19evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
20if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
21sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such
22other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the
23Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the
24Department may reasonably require.
25    The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
26and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the

 

 

SB3189- 15 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
2price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
3traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
4for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
5extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for
6the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
7deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
8price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
9such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
10purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
11evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
12if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
13sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
14such other information as the Department may reasonably
15require.
16    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
17than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
18being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
19than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
20return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
21that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
22Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
23officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
24titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
25if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
26that this procedure will expedite the processing of

 

 

SB3189- 16 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1applications for title or registration.
2    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
3shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
4satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
5the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
6Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
7(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied
8that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
9may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
10whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
11that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
12support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
13certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
14tangible personal property.
15    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
16Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
17retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
18evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
19is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
20paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
21Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
22mandate of this paragraph.
23    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
24wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
25of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
26retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not

 

 

SB3189- 17 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
2of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
3being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
4the information required by the transaction reporting return
5and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
6the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
7determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
8and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
9credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
10with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
11provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
12the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
13same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
14if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
15    Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
16selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
17the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
18property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
19the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
20purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When
21filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
22to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax

3Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal
4property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be
5prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return
6for each such item of tangible personal property which the

SB3189- 46 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
2traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
3for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
4extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for
5the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
6deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
7price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
8such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
9purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
10evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
11if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
12sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such
13other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the
14Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the
15Department may reasonably require.
16    The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
17or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
18name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
19price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
20traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
21for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the

3if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
4sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
5such other information as the Department may reasonably
6require.
7    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
8than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
9being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
10than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
11return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
12Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
13the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
14tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
15titling or registration is required) if the Department and
16such agency or State officer determine that this procedure
17will expedite the processing of applications for title or
18registration.
19    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
20shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
21satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
22the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
23Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
24receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
25satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
26purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State

2personal property that is involved (if titling or registration
3is required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
4Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or
5registration to such tangible personal property.
6    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
7Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
8retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
9evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
10is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
11paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
12Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
13mandate of this paragraph.
14    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
15wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
16of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before
17the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has
18not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the
19fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
20being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
21the information required by the transaction reporting return
22and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
23the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
24determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
25and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
26credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account

 

 

SB3189- 49 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
2provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
3the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
4same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
5if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
6    Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
7period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
8returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
9subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
10may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
11receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
12return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
13with respect to such receipts.
14    Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
15behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
16vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
17accredited agent of such corporation.
18    Where the seller is a limited liability company, the
19return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
20be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent
21of the limited liability company.
22    Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing
23the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
24return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
25Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
26on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,

 

 

SB3189- 50 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
2retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
3preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
4data to the Department on request. On and after January 1,
52021, a certified service provider, as defined in the Leveling
6the Playing Field for Illinois Retail Act, filing the return
7under this Section on behalf of a remote retailer shall, at the
8time of such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax
9imposed by this Act less a discount of 1.75%. A remote retailer
10using a certified service provider to file a return on its
11behalf, as provided in the Leveling the Playing Field for
12Illinois Retail Act, is not eligible for the discount. The
13discount under this Section is not allowed for the 1.25%
14portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel that is subject to the
15revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C.
1647133. Any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2d of this Act
17shall be included in the amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75%
18discount is computed. In the case of retailers who report and
19pay the tax on a transaction by transaction basis, as provided
20in this Section, such discount shall be taken with each such
21tax remittance instead of when such retailer files his
22periodic return. The discount allowed under this Section is
23allowed only for returns that are filed in the manner required
24by this Act. The Department may disallow the discount for
25retailers whose certificate of registration is revoked at the
26time the return is filed, but only if the Department's

 

 

SB3189- 51 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1decision to revoke the certificate of registration has become
2final.
3    Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
4tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
5Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
6Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
7remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
8$10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
9quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
10month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
11during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
12payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
13last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.
14On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average
15monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act, the

5Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
6the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by

18on the difference between the minimum amount due as a payment
19and the amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and

1    The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
22001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
3quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
4is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
5prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
6excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
7calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
8required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
9Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the

13each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
14taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
15during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
16January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
1722.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
1827.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month
19of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such
20tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987,
21each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
22taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the
23taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
24preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments
25shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
26taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or

 

 

SB3189- 56 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
2requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
3Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until
4such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
5the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less.
6If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or
7in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for
8penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as
9the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in
10excess of the minimum payments previously due.
11    The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after
12October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is
13required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
14any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to
15collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid
16taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the
17preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return
18with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make
19payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
20last day of the month during which the liability is incurred.
21Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
22taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the
23taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
24preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments
25shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
26taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or

 

 

SB3189- 57 -LRB102 21408 HLH 30524 b

1Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
2requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
3Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the
4taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the
5preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of
6highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less
7than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
8liability to the Department as computed for each calendar
9quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
10than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid
11at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be
12liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except
13insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that
14month in excess of the minimum payments previously due.
15    If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
16taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
17Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
18shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
19requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
20memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
21credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
22the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
23Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
24in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
25prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
26taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability

2the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
3Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
4regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
5subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
6taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's
72.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or
81.75% of the difference between the credit taken and that
9actually due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
10and interest on such difference.
11    If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
12Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
13to the Department under this Act for the month which the
14taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
15taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
16    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall

10the amount of such sales to the Department and to make a daily
11payment of the full amount of tax due. The Department shall
12impose this requirement when it finds that there is a
13significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an
14exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on evidence
15that a substantial number of concessionaires or other sellers
16who are not residents of Illinois will be engaging in the
17business of selling tangible personal property at retail at
18the exhibition or event, or other evidence of a significant
19risk of loss of revenue to the State. The Department shall
