15reinsurance arrangements), beginning with taxable years ending
16on or after December 31, 1999, the sum of the rates of tax
17imposed by subsections (b) and (d) shall be reduced (but not
18increased) to the rate at which the total amount of tax imposed
19under this Act, net of all credits allowed under this Act,
20shall equal (i) the total amount of tax that would be imposed
21on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
22the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
23domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes
24and taxes measured by net income imposed by such foreign
25insurer's state or country of domicile, net of all credits

HB3075- 9 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1income by the foreign insurer's state of domicile. For the
2purposes of this subsection (d-1), an inter-affiliate includes
3a mutual insurer under common management.
4        (1) For the purposes of subsection (d-1), in no event
5    shall the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections
6    (b) and (d) be reduced below the rate at which the sum of:
7            (A) the total amount of tax imposed on such foreign
8        insurer under this Act for a taxable year, net of all
9        credits allowed under this Act, plus
10            (B) the privilege tax imposed by Section 409 of the
11        Illinois Insurance Code, the fire insurance company
12        tax imposed by Section 12 of the Fire Investigation
13        Act, and the fire department taxes imposed under

HB3075- 10 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by
2    subsection (d).
3    This subsection (d-1) is exempt from the provisions of
4Section 250.
5    (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit
6against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for
7investment in qualified property.
8        (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
9    of the basis of qualified property placed in service during
10    the taxable year, provided such property is placed in
11    service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed an
12    additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of qualified
13    property placed in service during the taxable year,
14    provided such property is placed in service on or after
15    July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment within
16    Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the preceding
17    year as determined by the taxpayer's employment records
18    filed with the Illinois Department of Employment Security.
19    Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be deemed to have
20    met the 1% growth in base employment for the first year in
21    which they file employment records with the Illinois
22    Department of Employment Security. The provisions added to
23    this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored by Public
24    Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of existing
25    law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year, the
26    increase in base employment within Illinois over the

 

 

HB3075- 11 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit shall
2    be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the
3    numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
4    1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
5    not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
6    taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
7    any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
8    other than the year in which the property was placed in
9    service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
10    December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
11    credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
12    property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
13    credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
14    exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
15    amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
16    the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
17    excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
18    which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
19    equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
20    enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
21    Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
22    Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
23    Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
24    complying with the requirements specified in clause (i) and
25    (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
26    Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic

 

 

HB3075- 12 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
2    such certifications immediately. For tax years ending
3    after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
4    the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
5    or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability
6    for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability or
7    the liability as later amended, such excess may be carried
8    forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable
9    years following the excess credit years. The credit shall
10    be applied to the earliest year for which there is a
11    liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
12    that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit
13    shall be applied first.
14        (2) The term "qualified property" means property
15    which:
16            (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
17        buildings and structural components of buildings and
18        signs that are real property, but not including land or
19        improvements to real property that are not a structural
20        component of a building such as landscaping, sewer
21        lines, local access roads, fencing, parking lots, and
22        other appurtenances;
23            (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
24        Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
25        as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
26        eligible for the credit provided by this subsection

 

 

HB3075- 13 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1        (e);
2            (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
3        179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
4            (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
5        primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining coal
6        or fluorite, or in retailing, or was placed in service
7        on or after July 1, 2006 in a River Edge Redevelopment
8        Zone established pursuant to the River Edge
9        Redevelopment Zone Act; and
10            (E) has not previously been used in Illinois in
11        such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
12        the credit provided by this subsection (e) or
13        subsection (f).
14        (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
15    "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
16    of tangible personal property by procedures commonly
17    regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or
18    assembling which changes some existing material into new
19    shapes, new qualities, or new combinations. For purposes of
20    this subsection (e) the term "mining" shall have the same
21    meaning as the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of the
22    Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of this subsection (e),
23    the term "retailing" means the sale of tangible personal
24    property for use or consumption and not for resale, or
25    services rendered in conjunction with the sale of tangible
26    personal property for use or consumption and not for

 

 

HB3075- 14 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    resale. For purposes of this subsection (e), "tangible
2    personal property" has the same meaning as when that term
3    is used in the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, and, for
4    taxable years ending after December 31, 2008, does not
5    include the generation, transmission, or distribution of
6    electricity.
7        (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
8    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
9    income tax purposes.
10        (5) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
11    depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
12    in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of such
13    increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
14    date of such increase in basis.
15        (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
16    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
17        (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
18    be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
19    48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
20    any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
21    months after being placed in service, the Personal Property
22    Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year shall be
23    increased. Such increase shall be determined by (i)
24    recomputing the investment credit which would have been
25    allowed for the year in which credit for such property was
26    originally allowed by eliminating such property from such

 

 

HB3075- 15 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    computation and, (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
2    from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
3    purposes of this paragraph (7), a reduction of the basis of
4    qualified property resulting from a redetermination of the
5    purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of qualified
6    property to the extent of such reduction.
7        (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
8    the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
9    incurred after December 31, 2018, except for costs incurred
10    pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or before
11    December 31, 2018.
12        (9) Each taxable year ending before December 31, 2000,
13    a partnership may elect to pass through to its partners the
14    credits to which the partnership is entitled under this
15    subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may use the
16    credit allocated to him or her under this paragraph only
17    against the tax imposed in subsections (c) and (d) of this

19    credits shall be allocated among the partners in the
20    partnership in accordance with the rules set forth in
21    Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules
22    promulgated under that Section, and the allocated amount of
23    the credits shall be allowed to the partners for that

2        For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2000,
3    a partner that qualifies its partnership for a subtraction
4    under subparagraph (I) of paragraph (2) of subsection (d)
5    of Section 203 or a shareholder that qualifies a Subchapter
6    S corporation for a subtraction under subparagraph (S) of
7    paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 203 shall be
8    allowed a credit under this subsection (e) equal to its
9    share of the credit earned under this subsection (e) during
10    the taxable year by the partnership or Subchapter S
11    corporation, determined in accordance with the
12    determination of income and distributive share of income
13    under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal
14    Revenue Code. This paragraph is exempt from the provisions
15    of Section 250.
16    (f) Investment credit; Enterprise Zone; River Edge
17Redevelopment Zone.
18        (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the
19    tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for
20    investment in qualified property which is placed in service
21    in an Enterprise Zone created pursuant to the Illinois
22    Enterprise Zone Act or, for property placed in service on
23    or after July 1, 2006, a River Edge Redevelopment Zone
24    established pursuant to the River Edge Redevelopment Zone
25    Act. For partners, shareholders of Subchapter S
26    corporations, and owners of limited liability companies,

 

 

HB3075- 17 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    if the liability company is treated as a partnership for
2    purposes of federal and State income taxation, there shall
3    be allowed a credit under this subsection (f) to be
4    determined in accordance with the determination of income
5    and distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
6    and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. The credit
7    shall be .5% of the basis for such property. The credit
8    shall be available only in the taxable year in which the
9    property is placed in service in the Enterprise Zone or
10    River Edge Redevelopment Zone and shall not be allowed to
11    the extent that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability for
12    the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section
13    to below zero. For tax years ending on or after December
14    31, 1985, the credit shall be allowed for the tax year in
15    which the property is placed in service, or, if the amount
16    of the credit exceeds the tax liability for that year,
17    whether it exceeds the original liability or the liability
18    as later amended, such excess may be carried forward and
19    applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years
20    following the excess credit year. The credit shall be
21    applied to the earliest year for which there is a
22    liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
23    that is available to offset a liability, the credit
24    accruing first in time shall be applied first.
25        (2) The term qualified property means property which:
26            (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including

 

 

HB3075- 18 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1        buildings and structural components of buildings;
2            (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
3        Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
4        as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
5        eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
6        (f);
7            (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
8        179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
9            (D) is used in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge
10        Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer; and
11            (E) has not been previously used in Illinois in
12        such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
13        the credit provided by this subsection (f) or
14        subsection (e).
15        (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
16    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
17    income tax purposes.
18        (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
19    depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
20    in service in the Enterprise Zone or River Edge
21    Redevelopment Zone by the taxpayer, the amount of such
22    increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
23    date of such increase in basis.
24        (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
25    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
26        (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to

 

 

HB3075- 19 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
2    48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
3    any qualified property is moved outside the Enterprise Zone
4    or River Edge Redevelopment Zone within 48 months after
5    being placed in service, the tax imposed under subsections
6    (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable year shall be
7    increased. Such increase shall be determined by (i)
8    recomputing the investment credit which would have been
9    allowed for the year in which credit for such property was
10    originally allowed by eliminating such property from such
11    computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
12    from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
13    purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis of
14    qualified property resulting from a redetermination of the
15    purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of qualified
16    property to the extent of such reduction.
17        (7) There shall be allowed an additional credit equal
18    to 0.5% of the basis of qualified property placed in
19    service during the taxable year in a River Edge
20    Redevelopment Zone, provided such property is placed in
21    service on or after July 1, 2006, and the taxpayer's base
22    employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over
23    the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
24    employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
25    Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
26    shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base

 

 

HB3075- 20 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    employment for the first year in which they file employment
2    records with the Illinois Department of Employment
3    Security. If, in any year, the increase in base employment
4    within Illinois over the preceding year is less than 1%,
5    the additional credit shall be limited to that percentage
6    times a fraction, the numerator of which is 0.5% and the
7    denominator of which is 1%, but shall not exceed 0.5%.
8    (g) (Blank).
9    (h) Investment credit; High Impact Business.
10        (1) Subject to subsections (b) and (b-5) of Section 5.5
11    of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act, a taxpayer shall be
12    allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
13    and (b) of this Section for investment in qualified
14    property which is placed in service by a Department of
15    Commerce and Economic Opportunity designated High Impact
16    Business. The credit shall be .5% of the basis for such
17    property. The credit shall not be available (i) until the
18    minimum investments in qualified property set forth in
19    subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois
20    Enterprise Zone Act have been satisfied or (ii) until the
21    time authorized in subsection (b-5) of the Illinois
22    Enterprise Zone Act for entities designated as High Impact
23    Businesses under subdivisions (a)(3)(B), (a)(3)(C), and
24    (a)(3)(D) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone
25    Act, and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would
26    reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by

 

 

HB3075- 21 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. The
2    credit applicable to such investments shall be taken in the
3    taxable year in which such investments have been completed.
4    The credit for additional investments beyond the minimum
5    investment by a designated high impact business authorized
6    under subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois
7    Enterprise Zone Act shall be available only in the taxable
8    year in which the property is placed in service and shall
9    not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
10    taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by subsections (a)
11    and (b) of this Section to below zero. For tax years ending
12    on or after December 31, 1987, the credit shall be allowed
13    for the tax year in which the property is placed in
14    service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax
15    liability for that year, whether it exceeds the original
16    liability or the liability as later amended, such excess
17    may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of
18    the 5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The
19    credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
20    there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one
21    tax year that is available to offset a liability, the
22    credit accruing first in time shall be applied first.
23        Changes made in this subdivision (h)(1) by Public Act
24    88-670 restore changes made by Public Act 85-1182 and
25    reflect existing law.
26        (2) The term qualified property means property which:

 

 

HB3075- 22 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1            (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
2        buildings and structural components of buildings;
3            (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
4        Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
5        as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
6        eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
7        (h);
8            (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
9        179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and
10            (D) is not eligible for the Enterprise Zone
11        Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this
12        Section.
13        (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
14    used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
15    income tax purposes.
16        (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
17    depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
18    in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or
19    Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of
20    such increase shall be deemed property placed in service on
21    the date of such increase in basis.
22        (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
23    meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
24        (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before
25    December 31, 1996, any property ceases to be qualified
26    property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months

 

 

HB3075- 23 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    after being placed in service, or the situs of any
2    qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
3    months after being placed in service, the tax imposed under
4    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable
5    year shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined
6    by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
7    been allowed for the year in which credit for such property
8    was originally allowed by eliminating such property from
9    such computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed
10    credit from the amount of credit previously allowed. For
11    the purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the
12    basis of qualified property resulting from a
13    redetermination of the purchase price shall be deemed a
14    disposition of qualified property to the extent of such
15    reduction.
16        (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December 31,
17    1996, if a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under this
18    subsection (h) and thereby is granted a tax abatement and
19    the taxpayer relocates its entire facility in violation of
20    the explicit terms and length of the contract under Section
21    18-183 of the Property Tax Code, the tax imposed under
22    subsections (a) and (b) of this Section shall be increased
23    for the taxable year in which the taxpayer relocated its
24    facility by an amount equal to the amount of credit
25    received by the taxpayer under this subsection (h).
26    (i) Credit for Personal Property Tax Replacement Income

 

 

HB3075- 24 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1Tax. For tax years ending prior to December 31, 2003, a credit
2shall be allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and
3(b) of this Section for the tax imposed by subsections (c) and
4(d) of this Section. This credit shall be computed by
5multiplying the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
6Section by a fraction, the numerator of which is base income
7allocable to Illinois and the denominator of which is Illinois
8base income, and further multiplying the product by the tax
9rate imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.
10    Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under this
11subsection which is unused in the year the credit is computed
12because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by subsections (a)
13and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the original
14liability or the liability as later amended) may be carried
15forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by subsections
16(a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the excess credit
17year, provided that no credit may be carried forward to any
18year ending on or after December 31, 2003. This credit shall be
19applied first to the earliest year for which there is a
20liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from more
21than one tax year that is available to offset a liability the
22earliest credit arising under this subsection shall be applied
23first.
24    If, during any taxable year ending on or after December 31,
251986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
26Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this

 

 

HB3075- 25 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax
2shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by
3recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax
4imposed by subsections (c) and (d). If any portion of the
5reduced amount of credit has been carried to a different
6taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such taxable
7year to reduce the amount of credit claimed.
8    (j) Training expense credit. Beginning with tax years
9ending on or after December 31, 1986 and prior to December 31,
102003, a taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax
11imposed by subsections (a) and (b) under this Section for all
12amounts paid or accrued, on behalf of all persons employed by
13the taxpayer in Illinois or Illinois residents employed outside
14of Illinois by a taxpayer, for educational or vocational
15training in semi-technical or technical fields or semi-skilled
16or skilled fields, which were deducted from gross income in the
17computation of taxable income. The credit against the tax
18imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 1.6% of such
19training expenses. For partners, shareholders of subchapter S
20corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if the
21liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes of
22federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
23credit under this subsection (j) to be determined in accordance
24with the determination of income and distributive share of
25income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the
26Internal Revenue Code.

 

 

HB3075- 26 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused in
2the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to each of
3the 5 taxable years following the year for which the credit is
4first computed until it is used. This credit shall be applied
5first to the earliest year for which there is a liability. If
6there is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax
7year that is available to offset a liability the earliest
8credit arising under this subsection shall be applied first. No
9carryforward credit may be claimed in any tax year ending on or
10after December 31, 2003.
11    (k) Research and development credit. For tax years ending
12after July 1, 1990 and prior to December 31, 2003, and
13beginning again for tax years ending on or after December 31,
142004, and ending prior to January 1, 2022, a taxpayer shall be
15allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and
16(b) of this Section for increasing research activities in this
17State. The credit allowed against the tax imposed by
18subsections (a) and (b) shall be equal to 6 1/2% of the
19qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities in
20this State. For partners, shareholders of subchapter S
21corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if the
22liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes of
23federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
24credit under this subsection to be determined in accordance
25with the determination of income and distributive share of
26income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the

 

 

HB3075- 27 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1Internal Revenue Code.
2    For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying expenditures"
3means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
4credit for increasing research activities which would be
5allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
6which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures for
7increasing research activities in this State" means the excess
8of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in which
9incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base period,
10"qualifying expenditures for the base period" means the average
11of the qualifying expenditures for each year in the base
12period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years immediately
13preceding the taxable year for which the determination is being
14made.
15    Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
16year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
17unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
18as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
19taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever occurs
20first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year ending
21prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any year
22ending on or after December 31, 2003.
23    If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
242 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
25year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
26given year. If a tax liability for the given year still

 

 

HB3075- 28 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be
2applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
3liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
4credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
5following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
6that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
7than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
8credit is given was incurred.
9    No inference shall be drawn from this amendatory Act of the
1091st General Assembly in construing this Section for taxable
11years beginning before January 1, 1999.
12    It is the intent of the General Assembly that the research
13and development credit under this subsection (k) shall apply
14continuously for all tax years ending on or after December 31,
152004 and ending prior to January 1, 2022, including, but not
16limited to, the period beginning on January 1, 2016 and ending
17on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 100th
18General Assembly. All actions taken in reliance on the
19continuation of the credit under this subsection (k) by any
20taxpayer are hereby validated.
21    (l) Environmental Remediation Tax Credit.
22        (i) For tax years ending after December 31, 1997 and on
23    or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be allowed a
24    credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)
25    of this Section for certain amounts paid for unreimbursed
26    eligible remediation costs, as specified in this

 

 

HB3075- 29 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    subsection. For purposes of this Section, "unreimbursed
2    eligible remediation costs" means costs approved by the
3    Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Agency") under
4    Section 58.14 of the Environmental Protection Act that were
5    paid in performing environmental remediation at a site for
6    which a No Further Remediation Letter was issued by the
7    Agency and recorded under Section 58.10 of the
8    Environmental Protection Act. The credit must be claimed
9    for the taxable year in which Agency approval of the
10    eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit is not
11    available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any related
12    party caused or contributed to, in any material respect, a
13    release of regulated substances on, in, or under the site
14    that was identified and addressed by the remedial action
15    pursuant to the Site Remediation Program of the
16    Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution Control
17    Board rules are adopted pursuant to the Illinois
18    Administrative Procedure Act for the administration and
19    enforcement of Section 58.9 of the Environmental
20    Protection Act, determinations as to credit availability
21    for purposes of this Section shall be made consistent with
22    those rules. For purposes of this Section, "taxpayer"
23    includes a person whose tax attributes the taxpayer has
24    succeeded to under Section 381 of the Internal Revenue Code
25    and "related party" includes the persons disallowed a
26    deduction for losses by paragraphs (b), (c), and (f)(1) of

 

 

HB3075- 30 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of being
2    a related taxpayer, as well as any of its partners. The
3    credit allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
4    and (b) shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible
5    remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site, except
6    that the $100,000 threshold shall not apply to any site
7    contained in an enterprise zone as determined by the
8    Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
9    Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
10    total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year with
11    a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners and
12    shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall be
13    allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined in
14    accordance with the determination of income and
15    distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704 and
16    subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
17        (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
18    unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
19    forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year
20    for which the credit is first earned until it is used. The
21    term "unused credit" does not include any amounts of
22    unreimbursed eligible remediation costs in excess of the
23    maximum credit per site authorized under paragraph (i).
24    This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year for
25    which there is a liability. If there is a credit under this
26    subsection from more than one tax year that is available to

 

 

HB3075- 31 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1    offset a liability, the earliest credit arising under this
2    subsection shall be applied first. A credit allowed under
3    this subsection may be sold to a buyer as part of a sale of
4    all or part of the remediation site for which the credit
5    was granted. The purchaser of a remediation site and the
6    tax credit shall succeed to the unused credit and remaining
7    carry-forward period of the seller. To perfect the
8    transfer, the assignor shall record the transfer in the
9    chain of title for the site and provide written notice to
10    the Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue of the
11    assignor's intent to sell the remediation site and the
12    amount of the tax credit to be transferred as a portion of
13    the sale. In no event may a credit be transferred to any
14    taxpayer if the taxpayer or a related party would not be
15    eligible under the provisions of subsection (i).
16        (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
17    shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
18    Environmental Protection Act.
19    (m) Education expense credit. Beginning with tax years
20ending after December 31, 1999, a taxpayer who is the custodian
21of one or more qualifying pupils shall be allowed a credit
22against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this
23Section for qualified education expenses incurred on behalf of
24the qualifying pupils. The credit shall be equal to 25% of
25qualified education expenses, but in no event may the total
26credit under this subsection claimed by a family that is the

 

 

HB3075- 32 -LRB101 10066 HLH 56335 b

1custodian of qualifying pupils exceed (i) $500 for tax years
2ending prior to December 31, 2017, and (ii) $750 for tax years
3ending on or after December 31, 2017. In no event shall a
4credit under this subsection reduce the taxpayer's liability
5under this Act to less than zero. Notwithstanding any other
6provision of law, for taxable years beginning on or after
7January 1, 2017, no taxpayer may claim a credit under this
8subsection (m) if the taxpayer's adjusted gross income for the
9taxable year exceeds (i) $500,000, in the case of spouses
10filing a joint federal tax return or (ii) $250,000, in the case
11of all other taxpayers. This subsection is exempt from the
