    Section 10. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by
changing Sections 203, 502, 911.1, and 911.2 as follows:
 
    (35 ILCS 5/203)  (from Ch. 120, par. 2-203)
    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
        for which a deduction was previously taken under
        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        withdrawn by the taxpayer in the taxable year from a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 the
        taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
        federal income tax purposes 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;
            (D-21) For taxable years beginning on or after
        January 1, 2007, in the case of transfer of moneys from
        a qualified tuition program under Section 529 of the
        Internal Revenue Code that is administered by the State
        to an out-of-state program, an amount equal to the
        amount of moneys previously deducted from base income
        under subsection (a)(2)(Y) of this Section.
    and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the
    following amounts:
            (E) For taxable years ending before December 31,
        2001, any amount included in such total in respect of

        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

        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

            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); and
                    (ii) for property on which a bonus
                depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted
                basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by
                1.0.
            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

        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(a)(2)(D-17) for

        is exempt from the provisions of Section 250; and
            (EE) An amount equal to the income from intangible

        of the deductions allocable thereto) with respect to
        transactions with (i) a foreign person who would be a

        person. This subparagraph (EE) is exempt from the
        provisions of Section 250.
 
    (b) Corporations.

    income means an amount equal to the taxpayer's taxable
    income for the taxable year as modified by paragraph (2).

        law and is not a new enactment);

        subparagraph (E) of paragraph (2) of subsection (e),
        the amount by which addition modifications other than
        those provided by this subparagraph (E) exceeded
        subtraction modifications in such earlier taxable
        year, with the following limitations applied in the
        order that they are listed:
                (i) the addition modification relating to the
            net operating loss carried back or forward to the
            taxable year from any taxable year ending prior to
            December 31, 1986 shall be reduced by the amount of
            addition modification under this subparagraph (E)
            which related to that net operating loss and which
            was taken into account in calculating the base
            income of an earlier taxable year, and
                (ii) the addition modification relating to the
            net operating loss carried back or forward to the
            taxable year from any taxable year ending prior to

            For taxable years in which there is a net operating
        loss carryback or carryforward from more than one other
        taxable year ending prior to December 31, 1986, the
        addition modification provided in this subparagraph
        (E) shall be the sum of the amounts computed
        independently under the preceding provisions of this
        subparagraph (E) for each such taxable year;
            (E-5) For taxable years ending after December 31,
        1997, an amount equal to any eligible remediation costs

        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;
            (E-11) 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 (E-10), then
        an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the
        deductions taken in all taxable years under
        subparagraph (T) with respect to that property.
            If the taxpayer continues to own property through
        the last day of the last tax year for which the
        taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
        federal income tax purposes and for which the taxpayer
        was allowed in any taxable year to make a subtraction

        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;
            (E-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(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;
            (E-15) For taxable years beginning after December
        31, 2008, any deduction for dividends paid by a captive
        real estate investment trust that is allowed to a real
        estate investment trust under Section 857(b)(2)(B) of
        the Internal Revenue Code for dividends paid;
    and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the
    following amounts:
            (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 any amount included in such
        total under Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code;
            (H) In the case of a regulated investment company,
        an amount equal to the amount of exempt interest
        dividends as defined in subsection (b) (5) of Section
        852 of the Internal Revenue Code, paid to shareholders
        for the taxable year;
            (I) With the exception of any amounts subtracted
        under subparagraph (J), an amount equal to the sum of
        all amounts disallowed as deductions by (i) Sections
        171(a) (2), and 265(a)(2) and amounts disallowed as
        interest expense by Section 291(a)(3) of the Internal
        Revenue Code, as now or hereafter amended, and all
        amounts of expenses allocable to interest and
        disallowed as deductions by Section 265(a)(1) of the
        Internal Revenue Code, as now or hereafter amended; and
        (ii) for taxable years ending on or after August 13,
        1999, Sections 171(a)(2), 265, 280C, 291(a)(3), and
        832(b)(5)(B)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code; the
        provisions of this subparagraph are exempt from the
        provisions of Section 250;
            (J) An amount equal to all amounts included in such
        total 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;
            (K) An amount equal to those dividends included in
        such total which were paid by a corporation which
        conducts business operations in an Enterprise Zone or
        zones created under the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act or
        a River Edge Redevelopment Zone or zones created under
        the River Edge Redevelopment Zone Act and conducts
        substantially all of its operations in an Enterprise
        Zone or zones or a River Edge Redevelopment Zone or
        zones. This subparagraph (K) is exempt from the
        provisions of Section 250;
            (L) 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 (L);
            (M) For any taxpayer that is a financial
        organization within the meaning of Section 304(c) of
        this Act, an amount included in such total as interest
        income from a loan or loans made by such taxpayer to a
        borrower, to the extent that such a loan is secured by
        property which is eligible for the Enterprise Zone
        Investment Credit or the River Edge Redevelopment Zone
        Investment Credit. To determine the portion of a loan
        or loans that is secured by property eligible for a
        Section 201(f) investment credit to the borrower, the
        entire principal amount of the loan or loans between
        the taxpayer and the borrower should be divided into
        the basis of the Section 201(f) investment credit
        property which secures the loan or loans, using for
        this purpose the original basis of such property on the
        date that it was placed in service in the Enterprise
        Zone or the River Edge Redevelopment Zone. The
        subtraction modification available to taxpayer in any
        year under this subsection shall be that portion of the
        total interest paid by the borrower with respect to
        such loan attributable to the eligible property as
        calculated under the previous sentence. This
        subparagraph (M) is exempt from the provisions of
        Section 250;
            (M-1) For any taxpayer that is a financial

        required to apportion business income under different
        subsections of Section 304, but not to exceed the

    tax years ending on and after December 31, 1994, shall mean
    the gross investment income for the taxable year.

        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; and
            (G-11) If the taxpayer sells, transfers, abandons,
        or otherwise disposes of property for which the

        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

        through 964 of the Internal Revenue Code and amounts
        included in gross income under Section 78 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.
    and by deducting from the total so obtained the sum of the

        provided, however, this subtraction from federal

            If the taxpayer continues to own property through
        the last day of the last tax year for which the
        taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
        federal income tax purposes and for which the taxpayer
        was required in any taxable year to make an addition
        modification under subparagraph (G-10), then an amount
        equal to that addition modification.
            The taxpayer is allowed to take the deduction under

            (T) 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(a)(2)(D-18), 203(b)(2)(E-13), 203(c)(2)(G-13), or

        from the provisions of Section 250;
            (U) An amount equal to the interest income taken
        into account for the taxable year (net of the
        deductions allocable thereto) with respect to

        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
        interest paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
        indirectly, to the same person. This subparagraph (U)

        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

        taxable year under Section 203(c)(2)(G-13) for

        person. This subparagraph (V) is exempt from the
        provisions of Section 250. (W)
        (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.

            (B) An amount equal to the amount of tax imposed by

            (D-5) 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-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
        addition modification under subparagraph (D-5), then
        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 the
        taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
        federal income tax purposes 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
        December 31, 2004, to a foreign person who would be a
        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.
    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;
            (I) An amount equal to all amounts of income
        distributable to an entity subject to the Personal

        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, provided that the
        deduction under this subparagraph (I) shall not be
        allowed to a publicly traded partnership under Section
        7704 of the Internal Revenue Code for any taxable year
        ending on or after December 31, 2009;
            (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(2) of the Internal Revenue Code of
        1954, as now or hereafter amended, and all amounts of
        expenses allocable to interest and disallowed as
        deductions by Section 265(1) of the Internal Revenue
        Code, as now or hereafter amended; 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; 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 an Enterprise Zone or
        zones created under the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act,
        enacted by the 82nd General Assembly, or a River Edge
        Redevelopment Zone or zones created under the River
        Edge Redevelopment Zone Act and conducts substantially
        all of its operations in an Enterprise Zone or Zones or

        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 of 1986;
            (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); and
                    (ii) for property on which a bonus
                depreciation deduction of 50% of the adjusted
                basis was taken, "x" equals "y" multiplied by
                1.0.
            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 the
        taxpayer may claim a depreciation deduction for
        federal income tax purposes 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
        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-7) for interest
        paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to
        the same person. This subparagraph (R) is exempt from
        Section 250; and
            (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)
 
    (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;
            (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.

    (35 ILCS 5/502)  (from Ch. 120, par. 5-502)
    Sec. 502. Returns and notices.
    (a) In general. A return with respect to the taxes imposed
by this Act shall be made by every person for any taxable year:
        (1) for which such person is liable for a tax imposed
    by this Act, or
        (2) in the case of a resident or in the case of a
    corporation which is qualified to do business in this
    State, for which such person is required to make a federal
    income tax return, regardless of whether such person is
    liable for a tax imposed by this Act. However, this
    paragraph shall not require a resident to make a return if
    such person has an Illinois base income of the basic amount
    in Section 204(b) or less and is either claimed as a
    dependent on another person's tax return under the Internal
    Revenue Code of 1986, or is claimed as a dependent on
    another person's tax return under this Act.
    Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (1), a
nonresident whose Illinois income tax liability under
subsections (a), (b), (c), and (d) of Section 201 of this Act
is paid in full after taking into account the credits allowed
under subsection (f) of this Section or allowed under Section
709.5 of this Act shall not be required to file a return under
this subsection (a).
    (b) Fiduciaries and receivers.
        (1) Decedents. If an individual is deceased, any return
    or notice required of such individual under this Act shall
    be made by his executor, administrator, or other person
    charged with the property of such decedent.
        (2) Individuals under a disability. If an individual is
    unable to make a return or notice required under this Act,
    the return or notice required of such individual shall be
    made by his duly authorized agent, guardian, fiduciary or
    other person charged with the care of the person or
    property of such individual.
        (3) Estates and trusts. Returns or notices required of
    an estate or a trust shall be made by the fiduciary
    thereof.
        (4) Receivers, trustees and assignees for
    corporations. In a case where a receiver, trustee in
    bankruptcy, or assignee, by order of a court of competent
    jurisdiction, by operation of law, or otherwise, has
    possession of or holds title to all or substantially all
    the property or business of a corporation, whether or not
    such property or business is being operated, such receiver,
    trustee, or assignee shall make the returns and notices
    required of such corporation in the same manner and form as
    corporations are required to make such returns and notices.
    (c) Joint returns by husband and wife.
        (1) Except as provided in paragraph (3): ,
            (A) if a husband and wife file a joint federal
        income tax return for a taxable year ending before
        December 31, 2009, they shall file a joint return under
        this Act for such taxable year and their liabilities
        shall be joint and several; , but
            (B) if a husband and wife file a joint federal
        income tax return for a taxable year ending on or after
        December 31, 2009, they may elect to file separate
        returns under this Act for such taxable year. The
        election under this paragraph must be made on or before
        the due date (including extensions) of the return and,
        once made, shall be irrevocable. If no election is
        timely made under this paragraph for a taxable year:
                (i) the couple must file a joint return under
            this Act for such taxable year,
                (ii) their liabilities shall be joint and
            several, and
                (iii) any overpayment for that taxable year
            may be withheld under Section 909 of this Act or
            under Section 2505-275 of the Civil Administrative
            Code of Illinois and applied against a debt of
            either spouse without regard to the amount of the
            overpayment attributable to the other spouse; and
            (C) if the federal income tax liability of either
        spouse is determined on a separate federal income tax
        return, they shall file separate returns under this
        Act.
        (2) If neither spouse is required to file a federal
    income tax return and either or both are required to file a
    return under this Act, they may elect to file separate or
    joint returns and pursuant to such election their
    liabilities shall be separate or joint and several.
        (3) If either husband or wife is a resident and the
    other is a nonresident, they shall file separate returns in
    this State on such forms as may be required by the
    Department in which event their tax liabilities shall be
    separate; but if they file a joint federal income tax
    return for a taxable year, they may elect to determine
    their joint net income and file a joint return for that
    taxable year under the provisions of paragraph (1) of this
    subsection as if both were residents and in such case,
    their liabilities shall be joint and several.
        (4) Innocent spouses.
            (A) However, for tax liabilities arising and paid
        prior to August 13, 1999, an innocent spouse shall be
        relieved of liability for tax (including interest and
        penalties) for any taxable year for which a joint
        return has been made, upon submission of proof that the
        Internal Revenue Service has made a determination
        under Section 6013(e) of the Internal Revenue Code, for
        the same taxable year, which determination relieved
        the spouse from liability for federal income taxes. If
        there is no federal income tax liability at issue for
        the same taxable year, the Department shall rely on the
        provisions of Section 6013(e) to determine whether the
        person requesting innocent spouse abatement of tax,
        penalty, and interest is entitled to that relief.
            (B) For tax liabilities arising on and after August
        13, 1999 or which arose prior to that date, but remain
        unpaid as of that date, if an individual who filed a
        joint return for any taxable year has made an election
        under this paragraph, the individual's liability for
        any tax shown on the joint return shall not exceed the
        individual's separate return amount and the
        individual's liability for any deficiency assessed for
        that taxable year shall not exceed the portion of the
        deficiency properly allocable to the individual. For
        purposes of this paragraph:
                (i) An election properly made pursuant to
            Section 6015 of the Internal Revenue Code shall
            constitute an election under this paragraph,
            provided that the election shall not be effective
            until the individual has notified the Department
            of the election in the form and manner prescribed
            by the Department.
                (ii) If no election has been made under Section
            6015, the individual may make an election under
            this paragraph in the form and manner prescribed by
            the Department, provided that no election may be
            made if the Department finds that assets were
            transferred between individuals filing a joint
            return as part of a scheme by such individuals to
            avoid payment of Illinois income tax and the
            election shall not eliminate the individual's
            liability for any portion of a deficiency
            attributable to an error on the return of which the
            individual had actual knowledge as of the date of
            filing.
                (iii) In determining the separate return
            amount or portion of any deficiency attributable
            to an individual, the Department shall follow the
            provisions in subsections (c) and (d) of Section
            6015 of the Internal Revenue Code.
                (iv) In determining the validity of an
            individual's election under subparagraph (ii) and
            in determining an electing individual's separate
            return amount or portion of any deficiency under
            subparagraph (iii), any determination made by the
            Secretary of the Treasury, by the United States Tax
            Court on petition for review of a determination by
            the Secretary of the Treasury, or on appeal from
            the United States Tax Court under Section 6015 of
            the Internal Revenue Code regarding criteria for
            eligibility or under subsection (d) of Section
            6015 of the Internal Revenue Code regarding the
            allocation of any item of income, deduction,
            payment, or credit between an individual making
            the federal election and that individual's spouse
            shall be conclusively presumed to be correct. With
            respect to any item that is not the subject of a
            determination by the Secretary of the Treasury or
            the federal courts, in any proceeding involving
            this subsection, the individual making the
            election shall have the burden of proof with
            respect to any item except that the Department
            shall have the burden of proof with respect to
            items in subdivision (ii).
                (v) Any election made by an individual under
            this subsection shall apply to all years for which
            that individual and the spouse named in the
            election have filed a joint return.
                (vi) After receiving a notice that the federal
            election has been made or after receiving an
            election under subdivision (ii), the Department
            shall take no collection action against the
            electing individual for any liability arising from
            a joint return covered by the election until the
            Department has notified the electing individual in
            writing that the election is invalid or of the
            portion of the liability the Department has
            allocated to the electing individual. Within 60
            days (150 days if the individual is outside the
            United States) after the issuance of such
            notification, the individual may file a written
            protest of the denial of the election or of the
            Department's determination of the liability
            allocated to him or her and shall be granted a
            hearing within the Department under the provisions
            of Section 908. If a protest is filed, the
            Department shall take no collection action against
            the electing individual until the decision
            regarding the protest has become final under
            subsection (d) of Section 908 or, if
            administrative review of the Department's decision
            is requested under Section 1201, until the
            decision of the court becomes final.
    (d) Partnerships. Every partnership having any base income
allocable to this State in accordance with section 305(c) shall
retain information concerning all items of income, gain, loss
and deduction; the names and addresses of all of the partners,
or names and addresses of members of a limited liability
company, or other persons who would be entitled to share in the
base income of the partnership if distributed; the amount of
the distributive share of each; and such other pertinent
information as the Department may by forms or regulations
prescribe. The partnership shall make that information
available to the Department when requested by the Department.
    (e) For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 1985,
and before December 31, 1993, taxpayers that are corporations
(other than Subchapter S corporations) having the same taxable
year and that are members of the same unitary business group
may elect to be treated as one taxpayer for purposes of any
original return, amended return which includes the same
taxpayers of the unitary group which joined in the election to
file the original return, extension, claim for refund,
assessment, collection and payment and determination of the
group's tax liability under this Act. This subsection (e) does
not permit the election to be made for some, but not all, of
the purposes enumerated above. For taxable years ending on or
after December 31, 1987, corporate members (other than
Subchapter S corporations) of the same unitary business group
making this subsection (e) election are not required to have
the same taxable year.
    For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 1993,
taxpayers that are corporations (other than Subchapter S
corporations) and that are members of the same unitary business
group shall be treated as one taxpayer for purposes of any
original return, amended return which includes the same
taxpayers of the unitary group which joined in filing the
original return, extension, claim for refund, assessment,
collection and payment and determination of the group's tax
liability under this Act.
    (f) The Department may promulgate regulations to permit
nonresident individual partners of the same partnership,
nonresident Subchapter S corporation shareholders of the same
Subchapter S corporation, and nonresident individuals
transacting an insurance business in Illinois under a Lloyds
plan of operation, and nonresident individual members of the
same limited liability company that is treated as a partnership
under Section 1501 (a)(16) of this Act, to file composite
individual income tax returns reflecting the composite income
of such individuals allocable to Illinois and to make composite
individual income tax payments. The Department may by
regulation also permit such composite returns to include the
income tax owed by Illinois residents attributable to their
income from partnerships, Subchapter S corporations, insurance
businesses organized under a Lloyds plan of operation, or
limited liability companies that are treated as partnership
under Section 1501(a)(16) of this Act, in which case such
Illinois residents will be permitted to claim credits on their
individual returns for their shares of the composite tax
payments. This paragraph of subsection (f) applies to taxable
years ending on or after December 31, 1987.
    For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 1999, the
Department may, by regulation, also permit any persons
transacting an insurance business organized under a Lloyds plan
of operation to file composite returns reflecting the income of
such persons allocable to Illinois and the tax rates applicable
to such persons under Section 201 and to make composite tax
payments and shall, by regulation, also provide that the income
and apportionment factors attributable to the transaction of an
insurance business organized under a Lloyds plan of operation
by any person joining in the filing of a composite return
shall, for purposes of allocating and apportioning income under
Article 3 of this Act and computing net income under Section
202 of this Act, be excluded from any other income and
apportionment factors of that person or of any unitary business
group, as defined in subdivision (a)(27) of Section 1501, to
which that person may belong.
    For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2008,
every nonresident shall be allowed a credit against his or her
liability under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 for any
amount of tax reported on a composite return and paid on his or
her behalf under this subsection (f). Residents (other than
persons transacting an insurance business organized under a
Lloyds plan of operation) may claim a credit for taxes reported
on a composite return and paid on their behalf under this
subsection (f) only as permitted by the Department by rule.
    (f-5) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2008, the Department may adopt rules to provide that, when a
partnership or Subchapter S corporation has made an error in
determining the amount of any item of income, deduction,
addition, subtraction, or credit required to be reported on its
return that affects the liability imposed under this Act on a
partner or shareholder, the partnership or Subchapter S
corporation may report the changes in liabilities of its
partners or shareholders and claim a refund of the resulting
overpayments, or pay the resulting underpayments, on behalf of
its partners and shareholders.
    (g) The Department may adopt rules to authorize the
electronic filing of any return required to be filed under this
Section.

    (35 ILCS 5/911.1)  (from Ch. 120, par. 9-911.1)
    Sec. 911.1. If the Department withholds any refund due
under this Act because of any other liability to the State and
if the return for which such refund is due is a joint return
for a taxable year ending before December 31, 2009, the
taxpayer who jointly filed such return and who is not liable to
the State shall be entitled to that portion of the refund
attributable to himself or herself.
(Source: P.A. 85-473.)
 
    (35 ILCS 5/911.2)

    (a) Definitions. In this Section the following terms have
the meanings indicated.
    "Claimant state" means any state or the District of
Columbia that requests the withholding of a refund pursuant to
this Section and that extends a like comity for the collection
of taxes owed to this State.
    "Income tax" means any amount of income tax imposed on
taxpayers under the laws of the State of Illinois or the
claimant state, including additions to tax for penalties and
interest.
    "Refund" means a refund of overpaid income taxes imposed by
the State of Illinois or the claimant state.
    "Tax officer" means a unit or official of the claimant
state, or the duly authorized agent of that unit or official,

income taxes.
    "Taxpayer" means any individual person identified by a
claimant state under this Section as owing taxes to that
claimant state, and in the case of a refund arising from the
filing of a joint return, the taxpayer's spouse.
    (b) In general. Except as provided in subsection (c) of
this Section, a tax officer may:
        (1) certify to the Director the existence of a
    taxpayer's delinquent income tax liability; and
        (2) request the Director to withhold any refund to
    which the taxpayer is entitled.
    (c) Comity. A tax officer may not certify or request the
Director to withhold a refund unless the laws of the claimant
state:
        (1) allow the Director to certify an income tax
    liability;
        (2) allow the Director to request the tax officer to
    withhold the taxpayer's tax refund; and
        (3) provide for the payment of the refund to the State
    of Illinois.
    (d) Certification. A certification by a tax officer to the
Director shall include:
        (1) the full name and address of the taxpayer and any
    other names known to be used by the taxpayer;
        (2) the social security number or federal tax
    identification number of the taxpayer;
        (3) the amount of the income tax liability; and

Director shall:
        (1) notify the taxpayer that a claimant state has
    provided certification of the existence of an income tax
    liability;
        (2) inform the taxpayer of the tax liability certified,
    including a detailed statement for each taxable year
    showing tax, interest, and penalty;
        (3) inform the taxpayer that failure to file a protest
    in accordance with subsection (f) of this Section shall
    constitute a waiver of any demand against this State for
    the amount certified;
        (3.5) inform the taxpayer that the refund has been
    withheld and that the tax liability has been paid to the
    claimant state as provided in subsection (i) of this
    Section;
        (4) provide the taxpayer with notice of an opportunity
    to request a hearing to challenge the certification; and

withholding of a refund pursuant to Section 910 of this Act
(except that the protest shall be filed within 30 days after
the date of the Director's notice of certification pursuant to
subsection (e) of this Section).
    (g) Certification as prima facie evidence. If the taxpayer
requests a hearing pursuant to Section 910 of this Act, the
certification of the tax officer shall be prima facie evidence
of the correctness of the taxpayer's delinquent income tax
liability to the certifying state.
    (h) Rights of spouses to refunds from joint returns. If a
certification is based upon the tax debt of only one taxpayer
and if the refund is based upon a joint personal income tax
return for a taxable year ending before December 31, 2009, the
nondebtor spouse shall have the right to:
        (1) notification, as provided in subsection (e) of this
    Section;
        (2) protest, as to the withholding of such spouse's
    share of the refund, as provided in subsection (f) of this

    the amount of the overpayment refunded to the spouse shall
    not exceed the amount of the joint overpayment.
    (i) Withholding and payment of refund. Upon receipt of a
request for withholding in accordance with subsection (b) of
this Section, the Director shall:
        (1) withhold any refund that is certified by the tax
    officer;
        (2) pay to the claimant state the entire refund or the
    amount certified, whichever is less;
        (3) pay any refund in excess of the amount certified to
    the taxpayer; and
        (4) if a refund is less than the amount certified,
    withhold amounts from subsequent refunds due the taxpayer,
    if the laws of the claimant state provide that the claimant
    state shall withhold subsequent refunds of taxpayers
    certified to that state by the Director.

receiving a certification from a tax officer, the Director
shall notify the claimant state if the Director determines that

    (k) Director's authority. The Director shall have the
authority to enter into agreements with the tax officers of
claimant state relating to:
        (1) procedures and methods to be employed by a claimant
    state with respect to the operation of this Section;
        (2) safeguards against the disclosure or inappropriate
    use of any information obtained or maintained pursuant to
    this Section that identifies, directly or indirectly, a
    particular taxpayer;
        (3) a minimum tax debt, amounts below which, in light
    of administrative expenses and efficiency, shall, in the
    Director's discretion, not be subject to the withholding
    procedures set forth in this Section.

    Section 15. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing Section
10 as follows:
 
    (35 ILCS 105/10)  (from Ch. 120, par. 439.10)
    Sec. 10. Except as to motor vehicles, aircraft, watercraft,
and trailers, and except as to cigarettes as defined in the
Cigarette Use Tax, when tangible personal property is purchased
from a retailer for use in this State by a purchaser who did
not pay the tax imposed by this Act to the retailer, and who
does not file returns with the Department as a retailer under
Section 9 of this Act, such purchaser (by the last day of the
month following the calendar month in which such purchaser
makes any payment upon the selling price of such property)
shall, except as provided in this Section, file a return with
the Department and pay the tax upon that portion of the selling
price so paid by the purchaser during the preceding calendar
month. When tangible personal property, including but not
limited to motor vehicles and aircraft, is purchased by a
lessor, under a lease for one year or longer, executed or in
effect at the time of purchase to an interstate carrier for
hire, who did not pay the tax imposed by this Act to the
retailer, such lessor (by the last day of the month following
the calendar month in which such property reverts to the use of
such lessor) shall file a return with the Department and pay
the tax upon the fair market value of such property on the date
of such reversion. However, in determining the fair market
value at the time of reversion, the fair market value of such
property shall not exceed the original purchase price of the
property that was paid by the lessor at the time of purchase.
Such return shall be filed on a form prescribed by the
Department and shall contain such information as the Department
may reasonably require. Such return and payment from the
purchaser shall be submitted to the Department sooner than the
last day of the month after the month in which the purchase is
made to the extent that that may be necessary in order to
secure the title to a motor vehicle or the certificate of
registration for an aircraft. However, except as to motor
vehicles and aircraft, and except as to cigarettes as defined
in the Cigarette Use Tax Act, if the purchaser's annual use tax
liability does not exceed $600, the purchaser may file the
return on an annual basis on or before April 15th of the year
following the year use tax liability was incurred.
    If cigarettes, as defined in the Cigarette Use Tax Act, are
purchased from a retailer for use in this State by a purchaser
who did not pay the tax imposed by this Act to the retailer,
and who does not file returns with the Department as a retailer
under Section 9 of this Act, such purchaser must, within 30
days after acquiring the cigarettes, file a return with the
Department and pay the tax upon that portion of the selling
price so paid by the purchaser for the cigarettes.
    In addition with respect to motor vehicles, aircraft,
watercraft, and trailers, a purchaser of such tangible personal
property for use in this State, who purchases such tangible
personal property from an out-of-state retailer, shall file
with the Department, upon a form to be prescribed and supplied
by the Department, a return for each such item of tangible
personal property purchased, except that if, in the same
transaction, (i) a purchaser of motor vehicles, aircraft,
watercraft, or trailers who is a retailer of motor vehicles,
aircraft, watercraft, or trailers purchases more than one motor
vehicle, aircraft, watercraft, or trailer for the purpose of
resale or (ii) a purchaser of motor vehicles, aircraft,
watercraft, or trailers purchases more than one motor vehicle,
aircraft, watercraft, or trailer for use as qualifying rolling
stock as provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then the
purchaser may report the purchase of all motor vehicles,
aircraft, watercraft, or trailers involved in that transaction
to the Department on a single return prescribed by the
Department. Such return in the case of motor vehicles and
aircraft must show the name and address of the seller, the
name, address of 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 purchaser 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 return shall be filed not later than 30 days after
such motor vehicle or aircraft is brought into this State for
use.
    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.
    The 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 return, the purchaser 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.
    When a purchaser pays a tax imposed by this Act directly to
the Department, the Department (upon request therefor from such
purchaser) shall issue an appropriate receipt to such purchaser
showing that he has paid such tax to the Department. Such
receipt shall be sufficient to relieve the purchaser from
further liability for the tax to which such receipt may refer.
    A user who is liable to pay use tax directly to the
Department only occasionally and not on a frequently recurring
basis, and who is not required to file returns with the
Department as a retailer under Section 9 of this Act, or under
the "Retailers' Occupation Tax Act", or as a registrant with
the Department under the "Service Occupation Tax Act" or the
"Service Use Tax Act", need not register with the Department.
However, if such a user has a frequently recurring direct use
tax liability to pay to the Department, such user shall be
required to register with the Department on forms prescribed by
the Department and to obtain and display a certificate of
registration from the Department. In that event, all of the
provisions of Section 9 of this Act concerning the filing of
regular monthly, quarterly or annual tax returns and all of the
provisions of Section 2a of the "Retailers' Occupation Tax Act"
concerning the requirements for registrants to post bond or
other security with the Department, as the provisions of such
sections now exist or may hereafter be amended, shall apply to
such users to the same extent as if such provisions were
included herein.

    Section 20. The Environmental Protection Act is amended by
changing Sections 55.8 and 55.10 as follows:
 
    (415 ILCS 5/55.8)  (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1055.8)
    Sec. 55.8. Tire retailers.
    (a) Any person selling new or used tires at retail or
offering new or used tires for retail sale in this State shall:
        (1) beginning on June 20, 2003 (the effective date of
    Public Act 93-32), collect from retail customers a fee of
    $2 per new or used tire sold and delivered in this State,
    to be paid to the Department of Revenue and deposited into
    the Used Tire Management Fund, less a collection allowance
    of 10 cents per tire to be retained by the retail seller
    and a collection allowance of 10 cents per tire to be
    retained by the Department of Revenue and paid into the
    General Revenue Fund; the collection allowance for retail
    sellers, however, shall be allowed only if the return is
    filed timely and only for the amount that is paid timely in
    accordance with this Title XIV;
        (1.5) beginning on July 1, 2003, collect from retail
    customers an additional 50 cents per new or used tire sold
    and delivered in this State; the money collected from this
    fee shall be deposited into the Emergency Public Health
    Fund;
        (2) accept for recycling used tires from customers, at
    the point of transfer, in a quantity equal to the number of
    new tires purchased; and
        (3) post in a conspicuous place a written notice at
    least 8.5 by 11 inches in size that includes the universal
    recycling symbol and the following statements: "DO NOT put
    used tires in the trash."; "Recycle your used tires."; and
    "State law requires us to accept used tires for recycling,
    in exchange for new tires purchased.".
    (b) A person who accepts used tires for recycling under
subsection (a) shall not allow the tires to accumulate for
periods of more than 90 days.
    (c) The requirements of subsection (a) of this Section do
not apply to mail order sales nor shall the retail sale of a
motor vehicle be considered to be the sale of tires at retail
or offering of tires for retail sale. Instead of filing
returns, retailers of tires may remit the tire user fee of
$1.00 per tire to their suppliers of tires if the supplier of
tires is a registered retailer of tires and agrees or otherwise
arranges to collect and remit the tire fee to the Department of
Revenue, notwithstanding the fact that the sale of the tire is
a sale for resale and not a sale at retail. A tire supplier who
enters into such an arrangement with a tire retailer shall be
liable for the tax on all tires sold to the tire retailer and
must (i) provide the tire retailer with a receipt that
separately reflects the tire tax collected from the retailer on
each transaction and (ii) accept used tires for recycling from
the retailer's customers. The tire supplier shall be entitled
to the collection allowance of 10 cents per tire.
    The retailer of the tires must maintain in its books and
records evidence that the appropriate fee was paid to the tire
supplier and that the tire supplier has agreed to remit the fee
to the Department of Revenue for each tire sold by the
retailer. Otherwise, the tire retailer shall be directly liable
for the fee on all tires sold at retail. Tire retailers paying
the fee to their suppliers are not entitled to the collection
allowance of 10 cents per tire.
    (d) The requirements of subsection (a) of this Section
shall apply exclusively to tires to be used for vehicles
defined in Section 1-217 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, aircraft
tires, special mobile equipment, and implements of husbandry.
    (e) The requirements of paragraph (1) of subsection (a) do
not apply to the sale of reprocessed tires. For purposes of
this Section, "reprocessed tire" means a used tire that has
been recapped, retreaded, or regrooved and that has not been
placed on a vehicle wheel rim.

    (415 ILCS 5/55.10)  (from Ch. 111 1/2, par. 1055.10)
    Sec. 55.10. Tax returns by retailer.
    (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, for
returns due on or before January 31, 2010, each Each retailer
of tires maintaining a place of business in this State shall
make a return to the Department of Revenue on a quarter annual
basis, with the return for January, February and March of a
given year being due by April 30 of that year; with the return
for April, May and June of a given year being due by July 31 of
that year; with the return for July, August and September of a
given year being due by October 31 of that year; and with the
return for October, November and December of a given year being
due by January 31 of the following year.
    For returns due after January 31, 2010, each retailer of
tires maintaining a place of business in this State shall make
a return to the Department of Revenue on a quarter annual
basis, with the return for January, February, and March of a
given year being due by April 20 of that year; with the return
for April, May, and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
that year; with the return for July, August, and September of a
given year being due by October 20 of that year; and with the
return for October, November, and December of a given year
being due by January 20 of the following year.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section to the
contrary, the return for October, November, and December of
2009 is due by February 20, 2010.
    (b) Each return made to the Department of Revenue shall
state:
        (1) the name of the retailer;
        (2) the address of the retailer's principal place of
    business, and the address of the principal place of
    business (if that is a different address) from which the
    retailer engages in the business of making retail sales of
    tires;
        (3) total number of tires sold at retail for the
    preceding calendar quarter;
        (4) the amount of tax due; and
        (5) such other reasonable information as the
    Department of Revenue may require.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act concerning
the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
case of any retailer who ceases to engage in the retail sale of
tires, the retailer shall file a final return under this Act
with the Department of Revenue not more than one month after
discontinuing that business.
