17    Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in this
18Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of 6.25% of
19either the selling price or the fair market value, if any, of

HB2331- 2 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1functionally used or consumed is the same as the property that
2was purchased at retail, then the tax is imposed on the selling
3price of the property. In all cases where property functionally
4used or consumed is a by-product or waste product that has been

6retail, then the tax is imposed on the lower of the fair market
7value, if any, of the specific property so used in this State
8or on the selling price of the property purchased at retail.
9For purposes of this Section "fair market value" means the
10price at which property would change hands between a willing
11buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion
12to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the
13relevant facts. The fair market value shall be established by
14Illinois sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
15functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales by
16the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of property of
17like kind and character in Illinois.

2proceeds of sales made on or after July 1, 2003 and on or

25by this Act does not apply to the proceeds of sales made on or

14    Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,
15and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency
16of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect
17the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the

20vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
21to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for
22each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of
23the selling price actually received during such tax return
24period.
25    Except as provided in this Section, on or before the
26twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file

8    may require.
9    If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
10the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
11the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be
12due on the return shall be deemed assessed.

7month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall
8make payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
922nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
10incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's
11average monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act,
12the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
13Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the
14preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
15with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
16next following the month during which such tax liability is
17incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
18the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
19liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
20liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
21payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
22actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
23Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
24of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
25calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
26the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the

 

 

HB2331- 13 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
2after January 1, 1985, and prior to January 1, 1987, each
3payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
4actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
5liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
6the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
7or after January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each
8payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
9actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
10liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
11the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
12or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
13begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
14amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
15the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
16calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
17such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
181989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
19amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
20the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
21calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
22actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
23amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
24against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
25that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
26requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the

 

 

HB2331- 14 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

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

 

 

HB2331- 15 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated above, then such
2taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such
3taxpayer's reporting status. The Department shall change such
4taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds that such change is
5seasonal in nature and not likely to be long term. If any such
6quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the
7amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be
8liable for penalties and interest on the difference between the
9minimum amount due and the amount of such quarter monthly
10payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the
11taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to the
12Department in excess of the minimum payments previously due as
13provided in this Section. The Department shall make reasonable
14rules and regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment
15amount and quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file
16on other than a calendar monthly basis.
17    If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
18the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
19Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
20Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
21the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
22no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
23memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
24in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
25taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
26similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax

 

 

HB2331- 16 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
2in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
3prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
4payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
5after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
6unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,
7the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
8liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
9Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
10the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
11accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
12the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
13all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
14taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
15be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
16credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
17liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
18    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
19return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to

14case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
15which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,

22tangible personal property shall file, with the Department,
23upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the Department, a

13watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration
14and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped
15with an inboard motor.
16    The transaction reporting return in the case of motor

1trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
2tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
3amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
4such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
5due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
6fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
7identification of the property sold; such other information as
8is required in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and

12and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
13name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
14price including the amount allowed by the retailer for

19deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
20the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
21transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
22the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that

24claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a
25sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
26information as the Department may reasonably require.

 

 

HB2331- 20 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
2than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
3being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
4than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
5return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
6that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
7Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
8officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
9titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
10if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
11that this procedure will expedite the processing of
12applications for title or registration.
13    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
14shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
15satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
16the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
17Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
18(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied
19that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
20may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
21whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
22that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
23support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
24certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
25tangible personal property.
26    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this

 

 

HB2331- 21 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
2retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
3evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
4is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
5paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
6Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
7mandate of this paragraph.
8    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
9wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
10tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
11retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
12paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
13of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
14being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
15the information required by the transaction reporting return
16and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
17the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
18determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
19and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
20credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
21with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
22provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
23the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
24same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
25if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
26    Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the

 

 

HB2331- 22 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
2the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
3property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
4the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
5purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When filing
6his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
7purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax so
8refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax which
9such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
10Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax
11to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
12such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
13amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
14deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
15purchaser.
16    Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also
17include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
18covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible
19personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
20but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
21from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
22remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
23return.
24    If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
25Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
26return which will enable retailers, who are required to file

 

 

HB2331- 23 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
2Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
3Acts on the one form.
4    Where the retailer has more than one business registered
5with the Department under separate registration under this Act,
6such retailer may not file each return that is due as a single
7return covering all such registered businesses, but shall file
8separate returns for each such registered business.

20    If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
21return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to
22the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
23authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,

22selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser
23thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds the
24selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman shall
25also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from the
26purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which he

 

 

HB2331- 46 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct
2the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from

19return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file
20returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax
21Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
22Acts on the one form.
23    Where the serviceman has more than one business registered
24with the Department under separate registration hereunder,

8of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
9trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
10tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
11amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
12such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not

14fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
15identification of the property sold; such other information as

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

5required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
6Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or registration
7to such tangible personal property.

11evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
12is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
13paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
14Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
15mandate of this paragraph.
16    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
17wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
18the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
19retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
20paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
21of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
22being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
23the information required by the transaction reporting return
24and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to

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

1Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
2on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
3whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
4retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
5preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
6data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made pursuant
7to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on
8which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of
9retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by
10transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount
11shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when
12such retailer files his periodic return. The discount allowed
13under this Section is allowed only for returns that are filed
14in the manner required by this Act. The Department may disallow
15the discount for retailers whose certificate of registration is
16revoked at the time the return is filed, but only if the
17Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
18registration has become final.
19    Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
20tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
21Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
22Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
23remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was $10,000

25shall file a return with the Department each month by the 20th
26day of the month next following the month during which such tax

 

 

HB2331- 103 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1liability is incurred and shall make payments to the Department
2on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month
3during which such liability is incurred. On and after October
41, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the
5Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service
6Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, excluding any
7liability for prepaid sales tax to be remitted in accordance
8with Section 2d of this Act, was $20,000 or more during the
9preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
10with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
11next following the month during which such tax liability is
12incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
13the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
14liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
15liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
16payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
17actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
18Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
19of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
20calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
21the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
22month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
23after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1, 1987, each
24payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
25actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
26liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If

1the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
2or after January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each
3payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
4actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
5liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
6the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
7or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
8begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
9amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
10the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
11calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
12such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
131989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
14amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
15the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
16calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
17actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
18amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
19against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
20that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
21requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
22Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability
23of $10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
24shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
25to the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
26quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the

 

 

HB2331- 105 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

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

 

 

HB2331- 106 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The Department
2shall change such taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds
3that such change is seasonal in nature and not likely to be
4long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at
5the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the
6taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the
7difference between the minimum amount due as a payment and the
8amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and timely
9paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
10payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
11minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
12The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
13govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
14payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
15monthly basis.
16    The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
172001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
18quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
19is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
20prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
21excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
22calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
23required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
24Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
25month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
26during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to

 

 

HB2331- 107 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221),
2each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
3taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
4during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
5January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
622.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5%
7of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
8preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax
9liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each
10payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
11actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
12liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year.
13The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
14against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
15that month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case
16may be. Once applicable, the requirement of the making of
17quarter monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this
18paragraph shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly
19prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2 complete
20calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter
21monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
22required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
23interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has
24previously made payments for that month in excess of the
25minimum payments previously due.
26    The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October

 

 

HB2331- 108 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

11, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
2make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
3who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit

6calendar quarters shall file a return with the Department as
7required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
8Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
9month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
10shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
11liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
12the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of
13the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
14final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
15filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
16Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
17monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
18shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
19collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
20(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
21lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
22average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
23each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
24quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly
25payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
26taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such

 

 

HB2331- 109 -LRB101 04564 HLH 49572 b

1difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
2payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
3previously due.
4    If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
5taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
6Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
7shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
8requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
9memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
10credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
11the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
12Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
13in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
14prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
15taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
16subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
17the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
18Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
19regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
20subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
21taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
22and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
23of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
24due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
25interest on such difference.
