13    (35 ILCS 105/9)  (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9)
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
18amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time
19when he is required to file his return for the period during
20which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to
21January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5

15conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
16wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
17extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
18filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor
19vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
20to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for
21each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of
22the selling price actually received during such tax return
23period.
24    Except as provided in this Section, on or before the
25twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file
26a return for the preceding calendar month. Such return shall be

2such information as the Department may reasonably require.
3    The Department may require returns to be filed on a
4quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar
5quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the
6calendar month following the end of such calendar quarter. The
7taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for each
8of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before
9the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating:

23month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall
24make payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
2522nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
26incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's

 

 

SB2199- 18 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1average monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act,
2the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
3Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the
4preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
5with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
6next following the month during which such tax liability is
7incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
8the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
9liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
10liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
11payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
12actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
13Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
14of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
15calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
16the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
17month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
18after January 1, 1985, and prior to January 1, 1987, each
19payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
20actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
21liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
22the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
23or after January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each
24payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
25actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
26liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If

 

 

SB2199- 19 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
2or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
3begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
4amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
5the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
6calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
7such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
81989, and prior to 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 or 100% of the taxpayer's
12actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
13amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
14against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
15that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
16requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
17Department shall continue until such taxpayer's average
18monthly liability to the Department during the preceding 4
19complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
20liability and the month of lowest liability) is less than
21$9,000, or until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
22the Department as computed for each calendar quarter of the 4
23preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
24$10,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
25substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred
26which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average

 

 

SB2199- 20 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future
2will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
3taxpayer may petition the Department for change in such
4taxpayer's reporting status. On and after October 1, 2000, once
5applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter monthly
6payments to the Department shall continue until such taxpayer's
7average monthly liability to the Department during the
8preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of
9highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less
10than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
11to the Department as computed for each calendar quarter of the
124 preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
13$20,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
14substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred
15which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average
16monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future
17will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated above, then such
18taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such
19taxpayer's reporting status. The Department shall change such
20taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds that such change is
21seasonal in nature and not likely to be long term. If any such
22quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the
23amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be
24liable for penalties and interest on the difference between the
25minimum amount due and the amount of such quarter monthly
26payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the

 

 

SB2199- 21 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to the
2Department in excess of the minimum payments previously due as
3provided in this Section. The Department shall make reasonable
4rules and regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment
5amount and quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file
6on other than a calendar monthly basis.
7    If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
8the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
9Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
10Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
11the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
12no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
13memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
14in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
15taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
16similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax
17Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
18in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
19prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
20payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
21after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
22unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,
23the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
24liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
25Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
26the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in

 

 

SB2199- 22 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
2the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
3all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
4taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
5be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
6credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
7liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
8    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
9return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
10the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
11authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
12with the return for January, February, and March of a given
13year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
14April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such
15year; with the return for July, August and September of a given
16year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return
17for October, November and December of a given year being due by
18January 20 of the following year.
19    If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or
20quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
21liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the Department
22may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with
23the return for a given year being due by January 20 of the
24following year.
25    Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
26substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly

 

 

SB2199- 23 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1returns.
2    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
3the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
4case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
5which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
6such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
7Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
8business.
9    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
10aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
11an agency of this State, every retailer selling this kind of
12tangible personal property shall file, with the Department,
13upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the Department, a
14separate return for each such item of tangible personal
15property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
16transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor
17vehicles or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
18watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,
19watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer retailer for the purpose
20of resale or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor
21vehicles, or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
22watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as
23a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 3-55 of this
24Act, then that seller may report the transfer of all the
25aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers involved in
26that transaction to the Department on the same uniform

 

 

SB2199- 24 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 25 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 26 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 27 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
2paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
3of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
4being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
5the information required by the transaction reporting return
6and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
7the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
8determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
9and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
10credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
11with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
12provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
13the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
14same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
15if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
16    Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
17selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
18the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
19property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
20the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
21purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When filing
22his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
23purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax so
24refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax which
25such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
26Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax

 

 

SB2199- 28 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
2such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
3amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
4deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
5purchaser.
6    Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also
7include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
8covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible
9personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
10but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
11from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
12remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
13return.
14    If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
15Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
16return which will enable retailers, who are required to file
17returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
18Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
19Acts on the one form.
20    Where the retailer has more than one business registered
21with the Department under separate registration under this Act,
22such retailer may not file each return that is due as a single
23return covering all such registered businesses, but shall file
24separate returns for each such registered business.
25    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
26pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special

14sum of the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all
15other State and local occupation and use tax laws administered
16by the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year.
17The term "average monthly tax liability" means the sum of the
18taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other

26    Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the

 

 

SB2199- 44 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make payments

14requirements of this Section.
15    If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
16return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to
17the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
18authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
19with the return for January, February and March of a given year
20being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April,
21May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year;
22with the return for July, August and September of a given year
23being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for
24October, November and December of a given year being due by
25January 20 of the following year.
26    If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly

 

 

SB2199- 45 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1or quarterly return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax
2liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the Department
3may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with
4the return for a given year being due by January 20 of the
5following year.
6    Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
7substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
8returns.
9    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
10the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the

15discontinuing such business.
16    Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the
17selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser
18thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds the
19selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman shall
20also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from the
21purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which he
22refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct
23the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from
24any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation Tax, retailers'
25occupation tax or use tax which such serviceman may be required
26to pay or remit to the Department, as shown by such return,

 

 

SB2199- 46 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1provided that the amount of the tax to be deducted shall
2previously have been remitted to the Department by such
3serviceman. If the serviceman shall not previously have
4remitted the amount of such tax to the Department, he shall be
5entitled to no deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to
6the purchaser.
7    Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also include
8the total tax upon the selling price of tangible personal
9property purchased for use by him as an incident to a sale of
10service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount of such tax
11to the Department when filing such return.
12    If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
13Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
14return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file
15returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax
16Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
17Acts on the one form.
18    Where the serviceman has more than one business registered
19with the Department under separate registration hereunder,
20such serviceman shall not file each return that is due as a
21single return covering all such registered businesses, but
22shall file separate returns for each such registered business.

19Fund 16% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month
20from the 6.25% general rate on transfers of tangible personal

11    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
12the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
13case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
14which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
15such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
16Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
17business.
18    Where the same person has more than one business registered
19with the Department under separate registrations under this
20Act, such person may not file each return that is due as a
21single return covering all such registered businesses, but
22shall file separate returns for each such registered business.
23    In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
24aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
25an agency of this State, every retailer selling this kind of
26tangible personal property shall file, with the Department,

 

 

SB2199- 84 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the Department, a
2separate return for each such item of tangible personal
3property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
4transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor
5vehicles or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
6watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,
7watercraft, motor vehicle retailer or trailer retailer for the
8purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft,
9motor vehicles, or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
10watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as
11a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 2-5 of this
12Act, then that seller may report the transfer of all aircraft,
13watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers involved in that
14transaction to the Department on the same uniform
15invoice-transaction reporting return form. For purposes of
16this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4
17watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration
18and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped
19with an inboard motor.
20    Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft,
21aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with
22an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax
23liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such
24transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise required
25to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or
26quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall be required

 

 

SB2199- 85 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 86 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 87 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 88 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1the information required by the transaction reporting return
2and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
3the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
4determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
5and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
6credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
7with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
8provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
9the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
10same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
11if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
12    Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
13period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
14returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
15subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
16may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
17receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
18return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
19with respect to such receipts.
20    Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
21behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
22vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
23accredited agent of such corporation.
24    Where the seller is a limited liability company, the return
25filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall be
26signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent of

 

 

SB2199- 89 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1the limited liability company.
2    Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing the
3return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
4return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
5Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
6on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
7whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
8retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
9preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
10data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made pursuant
11to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on
12which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of
13retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by
14transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount
15shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when
16such retailer files his periodic return. The Department may
17disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of
18registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but
19only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
20registration has become final.
21    Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
22tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
23Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
24Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
25remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was $10,000
26or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he

 

 

SB2199- 90 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1shall file a return with the Department each month by the 20th
2day of the month next following the month during which such tax
3liability is incurred and shall make payments to the Department
4on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month
5during which such liability is incurred. On and after October
61, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the
7Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service
8Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, excluding any
9liability for prepaid sales tax to be remitted in accordance
10with Section 2d of this Act, was $20,000 or more during the
11preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
12with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
13next following the month during which such tax liability is
14incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
15the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
16liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
17liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
18payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
19actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
20Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
21of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
22calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
23the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
24month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
25after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1, 1987, each
26payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's

 

 

SB2199- 91 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
2liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
3the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
4or after January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each
5payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
6actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
7liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
8the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
9or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
10begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
11amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
12the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
13calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
14such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
151989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
16amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
17the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
18calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
19actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
20amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
21against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
22that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
23requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
24Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability
25of $10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
26shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability

 

 

SB2199- 92 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

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

 

 

SB2199- 93 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated
2above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department for a
3change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The Department
4shall change such taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds
5that such change is seasonal in nature and not likely to be
6long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at
7the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the
8taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the
9difference between the minimum amount due as a payment and the
10amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and timely
11paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
12payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
13minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
14The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
15govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
16payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
17monthly basis.
18    The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
192001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
20quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
21is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
22prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
23excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
24calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
25required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
26Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the

 

 

SB2199- 94 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
2during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to
3September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221)
4this amendatory Act of 1985, each payment shall be in an amount
5not less than 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability under
6Section 2d. If the month during which such tax liability is
7incurred begins on or after January 1, 1986, each payment shall
8be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
9liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability
10for the same calendar month of the preceding calendar year. If
11the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
12or after January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount
13equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month
14or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar
15month of the preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly
16payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of
17the taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section
18or Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
19requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
20Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until such
21taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the
22preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If
23any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in
24the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
25and interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer
26has previously made payments for that month in excess of the

 

 

SB2199- 95 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1minimum payments previously due.
2    The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October
31, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
4make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
5who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
6prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that average in
7excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete
8calendar quarters shall file a return with the Department as
9required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
10Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
11month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
12shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
13liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
14the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of
15the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
16final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
17filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
18Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
19monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
20shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
21collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
22(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
23lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
24average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
25each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
26quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly

 

 

SB2199- 96 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
2taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
3difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
4payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
5previously due.
6    If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
7taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
8Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
9shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
10requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
11memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
12credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
13the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
14Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
15in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
16prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
17taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
18subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
19the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
20Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
21regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
22subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
23taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
24and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
25of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
26due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and

 

 

SB2199- 97 -LRB100 12245 HLH 24763 b

1interest on such difference.
2    If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
3Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
4to the Department under this Act for the month which the
5taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
6taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
7    Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
8pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the
9State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue
