 1        AN ACT regarding taxation.

 2        Be it enacted by the People of  the  State  of  Illinois,
 3    represented in the General Assembly:

 4        Section  5.  The State Finance Act is amended by changing
 5    Sections 6z-18 and 6z-20 as follows:

 6        (30 ILCS 105/6z-18) (from Ch. 127, par. 142z-18)
 7        Sec. 6z-18.  A portion of the money paid into  the  Local
 8    Government  Tax Fund from sales of food for human consumption
 9    which is to be consumed off the premises  where  it  is  sold
10    (other  than  alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food which
11    has been prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription
12    and nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances  and
13    insulin,  urine  testing materials, syringes and needles used
14    by diabetics, which  occurred  in  municipalities,  shall  be
15    distributed  to  each municipality based upon the sales which
16    occurred  in  that  municipality.   The  remainder  shall  be
17    distributed  to  each  county  based  upon  the  sales  which
18    occurred in the unincorporated area of that county.
19        A portion of the money paid into the Local Government Tax
20    Fund from the 6.25% general use tax rate on the selling price
21    of tangible personal  property  which  is  purchased  outside
22    Illinois  at  retail  from  a retailer and which is titled or
23    registered by any agency of this State's government shall  be
24    distributed  to municipalities as provided in this paragraph.
25    Each municipality shall receive the  amount  attributable  to
26    sales   for   which   Illinois   addresses   for  titling  or
27    registration  purposes   are   given   as   being   in   such
28    municipality.  The remainder of the money paid into the Local
29    Government  Tax  Fund from such sales shall be distributed to
30    counties.  Each county shall receive the amount  attributable
31    to   sales  for  which  Illinois  addresses  for  titling  or
 
                            -2-      LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    registration purposes are  given  as  being  located  in  the
 2    unincorporated area of such county.
 3        A portion of the money paid into the Local Government Tax
 4    Fund from the 6.25% general rate (and, beginning July 1, 2000
 5    and  through  December 31, 2000, the 1.25% rate on motor fuel
 6    and gasohol and, beginning July 1, 2003, the  1.25%  rate  on
 7    textbooks  required  for use at State universities and public
 8    community colleges or at institutions of higher  learning  as
 9    defined   in   the  Illinois  Financial  Assistance  Act  for
10    Nonpublic Institutions of Higher Learning) on  sales  subject
11    to  taxation  under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act and the
12    Service Occupation Tax Act, which occurred in municipalities,
13    shall be distributed to each  municipality,  based  upon  the
14    sales  which  occurred  in  that  municipality. The remainder
15    shall be distributed to each county,  based  upon  the  sales
16    which occurred in the unincorporated area of such county.
17        For  the  purpose  of determining allocation to the local
18    government unit, a retail sale by a producer of coal or other
19    mineral mined in Illinois is a sale at retail  at  the  place
20    where  the  coal  or  other  mineral  mined  in  Illinois  is
21    extracted  from  the earth.  This paragraph does not apply to
22    coal or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by  the
23    seller  to  the purchaser at a point outside Illinois so that
24    the sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as  a
25    sale in interstate or foreign commerce.
26        Whenever the Department determines that a refund of money
27    paid  into  the Local Government Tax Fund should be made to a
28    claimant  instead  of  issuing  a  credit   memorandum,   the
29    Department  shall  notify  the  State  Comptroller, who shall
30    cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified, and  to
31    the  person  named, in such notification from the Department.
32    Such refund shall be paid by the State Treasurer out  of  the
33    Local Government Tax Fund.
34        On  or  before  the  25th day of each calendar month, the
 
                            -3-      LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Department shall prepare and certify to the  Comptroller  the
 2    disbursement  of stated sums of money to named municipalities
 3    and counties, the municipalities and  counties  to  be  those
 4    entitled  to  distribution  of taxes or penalties paid to the
 5    Department during the second preceding  calendar  month.  The
 6    amount to be paid to each municipality or county shall be the
 7    amount  (not including credit memoranda) collected during the
 8    second preceding calendar month by the  Department  and  paid
 9    into  the  Local  Government  Tax  Fund,  plus  an amount the
10    Department determines is  necessary  to  offset  any  amounts
11    which  were  erroneously paid to a different taxing body, and
12    not including an amount equal to the amount of  refunds  made
13    during the second preceding calendar month by the Department,
14    and  not including any amount which the Department determines
15    is necessary to offset any amounts which  are  payable  to  a
16    different  taxing  body  but  were  erroneously  paid  to the
17    municipality or county.  Within 10 days after receipt, by the
18    Comptroller,  of  the  disbursement  certification   to   the
19    municipalities and counties,  provided for in this Section to
20    be   given   to   the  Comptroller  by  the  Department,  the
21    Comptroller shall cause  the  orders  to  be  drawn  for  the
22    respective   amounts   in   accordance  with  the  directions
23    contained in such certification.
24        When certifying the amount of monthly disbursement  to  a
25    municipality  or  county  under  this Section, the Department
26    shall increase or decrease that amount by an amount necessary
27    to offset any misallocation of  previous  disbursements.  The
28    offset  amount  shall  be  the  amount  erroneously disbursed
29    within the 6 months preceding the  time  a  misallocation  is
30    discovered.
31        The  provisions  directing  the  distributions  from  the
32    special  fund  in  the  State  Treasury  provided for in this
33    Section  shall  constitute  an  irrevocable  and   continuing
34    appropriation  of  all  amounts as provided herein. The State

 5    September 1, 1990, which describes or refers to receipts from
 6    a  county  or municipal retailers' occupation tax, use tax or
 7    service occupation tax which  now  cannot  be  imposed,  such
 8    description  or  reference  shall  be  deemed  to include the
 9    replacement revenue for  such  abolished  taxes,  distributed
10    from the Local Government Tax Fund.

28    3,000,000 inhabitants. The remainder shall be distributed  to
29    each  county having 3,000,000 or fewer inhabitants based upon
30    the retail sales occurring in each such county.
31        For the purpose of determining allocation  to  the  local
32    government unit, a retail sale by a producer of coal or other
33    mineral  mined  in  Illinois is a sale at retail at the place
 
                            -5-      LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b

 2    extracted from the earth.  This paragraph does not  apply  to
 3    coal  or other mineral when it is delivered or shipped by the
 4    seller to the purchaser at a point outside Illinois  so  that
 5    the  sale is exempt under the United States Constitution as a

 7        Of the money received from the 6.25% general use tax rate
 8    on tangible personal  property  which  is  purchased  outside
 9    Illinois  at  retail  from  a retailer and which is titled or
10    registered by any agency of this State's government and  paid
11    into  the  County  and Mass Transit District Fund, the amount
12    for which Illinois  addresses  for  titling  or  registration
13    purposes  are  given as being in each county having more than
14    3,000,000 inhabitants shall be distributed into the  Regional

18    distributed to each county based on sales for which  Illinois
19    addresses  for  titling or registration purposes are given as
20    being located  in  the  county.   Any  money  paid  into  the
21    Regional  Transportation  Authority  Occupation  and  Use Tax
22    Replacement Fund from the County and  Mass  Transit  District
23    Fund  prior  to  January 14, 1991, which has not been paid to
24    the Authority prior to that date, shall be transferred to the

26        Whenever the Department determines that a refund of money
27    paid into the County and Mass Transit District Fund should be
28    made to a claimant instead of issuing  a  credit  memorandum,
29    the  Department shall notify the State Comptroller, who shall
30    cause the order to be drawn for the amount specified, and  to
31    the  person  named, in such notification from the Department.
32    Such refund shall be paid by the State Treasurer out  of  the

20    after  receipt,  by  the  Comptroller,  of  the  disbursement
21    certification  to  the  Regional Transportation Authority and
22    counties, provided for in this Section to  be  given  to  the
23    Comptroller  by  the  Department, the Comptroller shall cause
24    the  orders  to  be  drawn  for  the  respective  amounts  in
25    accordance   with   the   directions   contained   in    such

18        Section 10.  The Use  Tax  Act  is  amended  by  changing
19    Sections 3-10 and 9 as follows:

20        (35 ILCS 105/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.3-10)
21        Sec.  3-10.   Rate  of tax.  Unless otherwise provided in
22    this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the  rate  of
23    6.25%  of  either the selling price or the fair market value,
24    if any, of the tangible  personal  property.   In  all  cases
25    where  property  functionally used or consumed is the same as
26    the property that was purchased at retail, then  the  tax  is
27    imposed  on  the selling price of the property.  In all cases
28    where property functionally used or consumed is a  by-product
29    or  waste  product  that  has  been refined, manufactured, or
30    produced from property purchased at retail, then the  tax  is
31    imposed on the lower of the fair market value, if any, of the
32    specific  property  so  used  in this State or on the selling
 
                            -8-      LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    price of the property purchased at retail.  For  purposes  of
 2    this  Section  "fair  market  value" means the price at which
 3    property would change hands between a  willing  buyer  and  a
 4    willing  seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or
 5    sell and both having reasonable  knowledge  of  the  relevant
 6    facts. The fair market value shall be established by Illinois
 7    sales   by   the  taxpayer  of  the  same  property  as  that
 8    functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such  sales
 9    by  the  taxpayer,  then  comparable  sales  or  purchases of
10    property of like kind and character in Illinois.
11        Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31,  2000,
12    with  respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the
13    Motor Fuel Tax Law, and gasohol, as defined in  Section  3-40
14    of the Use Tax Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%.
15        With  respect  to  gasohol,  the  tax imposed by this Act
16    applies to 70% of the proceeds of  sales  made  on  or  after
17    January  1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003, and to 100% of the
18    proceeds of sales made thereafter.
19        Beginning  July  1,  2003,  with  respect  to   textbooks
20    required  for  use at State universities and public community
21    colleges or at institutions of higher learning as defined  in
22    the   Illinois   Financial   Assistance   Act  for  Nonpublic
23    Institutions of Higher Learning, the tax is  imposed  at  the
24    rate  of  1.25%.  The Department may adopt rules necessary to
25    implement and administer the 1.25% rate on textbooks.
26        With respect to food for human consumption that is to  be
27    consumed  off  the  premises  where  it  is  sold (other than
28    alcoholic beverages, soft drinks,  and  food  that  has  been
29    prepared  for  immediate  consumption)  and  prescription and
30    nonprescription   medicines,   drugs,   medical   appliances,
31    modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
32    it usable by a disabled person, and  insulin,  urine  testing
33    materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
34    use,  the  tax is imposed at the rate of 1%. For the purposes
 
                            -9-      LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    of this Section, the term "soft drinks" means  any  complete,
 2    finished,    ready-to-use,   non-alcoholic   drink,   whether
 3    carbonated or not, including but not limited to  soda  water,
 4    cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all
 5    other  preparations commonly known as soft drinks of whatever
 6    kind or description that  are  contained  in  any  closed  or
 7    sealed bottle, can, carton, or container, regardless of size.
 8    "Soft  drinks"  does  not include coffee, tea, non-carbonated
 9    water, infant formula, milk or milk products  as  defined  in
10    the Grade A Pasteurized Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks
11    containing 50% or more natural fruit or vegetable juice.
12        Notwithstanding  any  other provisions of this Act, "food
13    for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
14    where it is sold" includes all food sold  through  a  vending
15    machine,  except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that are
16    dispensed hot from  a  vending  machine,  regardless  of  the
17    location of the vending machine.
18        If  the  property  that  is  purchased  at  retail from a
19    retailer  is  acquired  outside  Illinois  and  used  outside
20    Illinois before being brought to Illinois for use here and is
21    taxable under this Act, the "selling price" on which the  tax
22    is  computed  shall be reduced by an amount that represents a
23    reasonable allowance for depreciation for the period of prior
24    out-of-state use.

27        (35 ILCS 105/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9)
28        Sec.   9.  Except   as  to  motor  vehicles,  watercraft,
29    aircraft, and trailers that are  required  to  be  registered
30    with  an  agency  of  this  State,  each retailer required or
31    authorized to collect the tax imposed by this Act  shall  pay
32    to the Department the amount of such tax (except as otherwise
33    provided)  at the time when he is required to file his return
 
                            -10-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    for the period during which such tax was  collected,  less  a
 2    discount  of  2.1% prior to January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and
 3    after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever  is
 4    greater,  which  is  allowed  to  reimburse  the retailer for
 5    expenses incurred in collecting  the  tax,  keeping  records,
 6    preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
 7    data  to the Department on request.  In the case of retailers
 8    who report and pay the tax on a  transaction  by  transaction
 9    basis,  as  provided  in this Section, such discount shall be
10    taken with each such tax  remittance  instead  of  when  such
11    retailer  files  his  periodic  return.   A retailer need not
12    remit that part of any tax collected by  him  to  the  extent
13    that  he  is required to remit and does remit the tax imposed
14    by the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,  with  respect  to  the
15    sale of the same property.
16        Where  such  tangible  personal  property is sold under a
17    conditional sales contract, or under any other form  of  sale
18    wherein  the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof,
19    is extended beyond the close of  the  period  for  which  the
20    return  is filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except
21    as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that
22    are required to be registered with an agency of this  State),
23    may  collect  for  each  tax  return  period,  only  the  tax
24    applicable  to  that  part  of  the  selling  price  actually
25    received during such tax return period.
26        Except  as  provided  in  this  Section, on or before the
27    twentieth day of each calendar  month,  such  retailer  shall
28    file  a return for the preceding calendar month.  Such return
29    shall be filed on forms  prescribed  by  the  Department  and
30    shall   furnish   such  information  as  the  Department  may
31    reasonably require.
32        The Department may require  returns  to  be  filed  on  a
33    quarterly  basis.  If so required, a return for each calendar
34    quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of  the
 
                            -11-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    calendar  month  following  the end of such calendar quarter.
 2    The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
 3    each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on  or
 4    before  the  twentieth  day  of the following calendar month,
 5    stating:
 6             1.  The name of the seller;
 7             2.  The address of the principal place  of  business
 8        from which he engages in the business of selling tangible
 9        personal property at retail in this State;
10             3.  The total amount of taxable receipts received by
11        him  during  the  preceding  calendar month from sales of
12        tangible personal property by him during  such  preceding
13        calendar  month,  including receipts from charge and time
14        sales, but less all deductions allowed by law;
15             4.  The amount of credit provided in Section  2d  of
16        this Act;
17             5.  The amount of tax due;
18             5-5.  The signature of the taxpayer; and
19             6.  Such   other   reasonable   information  as  the
20        Department may require.
21        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
22    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
23    the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown  to
24    be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
25        Beginning  October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
26    monthly tax liability of $150,000  or  more  shall  make  all
27    payments  required  by  rules of the Department by electronic
28    funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has
29    an average monthly tax liability of $100,000  or  more  shall
30    make  all  payments  required  by  rules of the Department by
31    electronic funds  transfer.  Beginning  October  1,  1995,  a
32    taxpayer  who has an average monthly tax liability of $50,000
33    or more shall make all payments  required  by  rules  of  the
34    Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,

 1    2000,  a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of $200,000
 2    or more shall make all payments  required  by  rules  of  the
 3    Department  by  electronic  funds transfer.  The term "annual
 4    tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities
 5    under  this  Act,  and  under  all  other  State  and   local
 6    occupation  and  use tax laws administered by the Department,
 7    for  the  immediately  preceding  calendar  year.  The   term
 8    "average   monthly  tax  liability"  means  the  sum  of  the
 9    taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and  under  all  other
10    State  and  local occupation and use tax laws administered by
11    the Department, for the immediately preceding  calendar  year
12    divided  by  12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who
13    has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
14    of Section 2505-210 of the Department of  Revenue  Law  shall
15    make  all  payments  required  by  rules of the Department by
16    electronic funds transfer.
17        Before August 1 of  each  year  beginning  in  1993,  the
18    Department  shall  notify  all  taxpayers  required  to  make
19    payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required
20    to  make  payments  by  electronic  funds transfer shall make
21    those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
22    1.
23        Any taxpayer not required to make payments by  electronic
24    funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
25    with the permission of the Department.
26        All  taxpayers  required  to  make  payment by electronic
27    funds transfer and any taxpayers  authorized  to  voluntarily
28    make  payments  by electronic funds transfer shall make those
29    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
30        The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
31    effectuate a program of electronic  funds  transfer  and  the
32    requirements of this Section.
33        Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
34    tax   liability   to  the  Department  under  this  Act,  the
 
                            -13-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,  the  Service  Occupation  Tax
 2    Act,  the  Service Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the
 3    preceding 4 complete  calendar  quarters,  he  shall  file  a
 4    return  with the Department each month by the 20th day of the
 5    month  next  following  the  month  during  which  such   tax
 6    liability   is  incurred  and  shall  make  payments  to  the
 7    Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last  day  of
 8    the  month  during  which  such liability is incurred. On and
 9    after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly  tax
10    liability  to  the  Department under this Act, the Retailers'
11    Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act,  and  the
12    Service  Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the preceding
13    4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the
14    Department each month by the  20th  day  of  the  month  next
15    following  the  month  during  which  such  tax  liability is
16    incurred and shall make  payment  to  the  Department  on  or
17    before  the  7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during
18    which such liability is incurred. If the month  during  which
19    such  tax  liability  is  incurred  began prior to January 1,
20    1985, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of  the
21    taxpayer's actual liability for the month or an amount set by
22    the  Department  not  to  exceed  1/4  of the average monthly
23    liability of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding
24    4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of  highest
25    liability and the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter
26    period).   If  the  month  during which such tax liability is
27    incurred begins on or after January 1,  1985,  and  prior  to
28    January  1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
29    22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability  for  the  month  or
30    27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month
31    of  the  preceding  year.  If the month during which such tax
32    liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, and
33    prior to January 1, 1988, each payment shall be in an  amount
34    equal  to  22.5%  of  the taxpayer's actual liability for the
 
                            -14-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    month or 26.25% of the  taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same
 2    calendar  month  of  the preceding year.  If the month during
 3    which such tax liability  is  incurred  begins  on  or  after
 4    January  1,  1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on
 5    or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an  amount
 6    equal  to  22.5%  of  the taxpayer's actual liability for the
 7    month or  25%  of  the  taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same
 8    calendar  month  of  the preceding year.  If the month during
 9    which such tax liability  is  incurred  begins  on  or  after
10    January  1,  1989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment
11    shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
12    liability for the month or 25% of  the  taxpayer's  liability
13    for  the same calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of
14    the taxpayer's  actual  liability  for  the  quarter  monthly
15    reporting   period.   The  amount  of  such  quarter  monthly
16    payments shall be credited against the final tax liability of
17    the taxpayer's return for  that  month.   Before  October  1,
18    2000,  once  applicable,  the  requirement  of  the making of
19    quarter monthly payments to  the  Department  shall  continue
20    until  such  taxpayer's  average  monthly  liability  to  the
21    Department  during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
22    (excluding the month of highest liability and  the  month  of
23    lowest   liability)  is  less  than  $9,000,  or  until  such
24    taxpayer's average monthly liability  to  the  Department  as
25    computed  for  each  calendar  quarter  of  the  4  preceding
26    complete  calendar  quarter  period  is  less  than  $10,000.
27    However,  if  a  taxpayer  can  show  the  Department  that a
28    substantial change in the taxpayer's  business  has  occurred
29    which  causes  the  taxpayer  to  anticipate that his average
30    monthly tax liability for the reasonably  foreseeable  future
31    will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
32    taxpayer  may  petition  the  Department  for  change in such
33    taxpayer's reporting status. On and after  October  1,  2000,
34    once  applicable,  the  requirement  of the making of quarter
 
                            -15-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    monthly payments to the Department shall continue until  such
 2    taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department during
 3    the  preceding  4  complete  calendar quarters (excluding the
 4    month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
 5    is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
 6    liability to the Department as  computed  for  each  calendar
 7    quarter  of  the 4 preceding complete calendar quarter period
 8    is less than $20,000.  However, if a taxpayer  can  show  the
 9    Department  that  a  substantial  change  in  the  taxpayer's
10    business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate
11    that  his  average  monthly  tax liability for the reasonably
12    foreseeable future will  fall  below  the  $20,000  threshold
13    stated  above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department
14    for a change  in  such  taxpayer's  reporting  status.    The
15    Department  shall  change  such  taxpayer's  reporting status
16    unless it finds that such change is seasonal  in  nature  and
17    not  likely  to  be  long  term.  If any such quarter monthly
18    payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required  by
19    this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
20    and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
21    and  the  amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and
22    timely paid, except insofar as the  taxpayer  has  previously
23    made  payments  for that month to the Department in excess of
24    the minimum payments  previously  due  as  provided  in  this
25    Section.    The  Department  shall  make reasonable rules and
26    regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount  and
27    quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
28    than a calendar monthly basis.
29        If  any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
30    the taxpayer's liabilities under  this  Act,  the  Retailers'
31    Occupation  Tax  Act,  the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
32    Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly  return,
33    the   Department   shall  issue  to  the  taxpayer  a  credit
34    memorandum no later than 30 days after the date  of  payment,
 
                            -16-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    which  memorandum  may  be  submitted  by the taxpayer to the
 2    Department in payment of tax  liability  subsequently  to  be
 3    remitted  by the taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by
 4    the taxpayer to  a  similar  taxpayer  under  this  Act,  the
 5    Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act
 6    or  the  Service  Use  Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
 7    rules and regulations to be  prescribed  by  the  Department,
 8    except  that  if  such excess payment is shown on an original
 9    monthly return and is made after December 31, 1986, no credit
10    memorandum shall be issued, unless requested by the taxpayer.
11    If no such request is made,  the  taxpayer  may  credit  such
12    excess  payment  against  tax  liability  subsequently  to be
13    remitted by the taxpayer to the Department  under  this  Act,
14    the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
15    Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable
16    rules  and  regulations prescribed by the Department.  If the
17    Department subsequently determines that all or  any  part  of
18    the  credit  taken  was not actually due to the taxpayer, the
19    taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall  be  reduced
20    by  2.1%  or 1.75% of the difference between the credit taken
21    and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be  liable  for
22    penalties and interest on such difference.
23        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
24    return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
25    the Department does  not  exceed  $200,  the  Department  may
26    authorize  his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
27    with the return for January, February, and March of  a  given
28    year  being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
29    April, May and June of a given year being due by July  20  of
30    such  year; with the return for July, August and September of
31    a given year being due by October 20 of such year,  and  with
32    the return for October, November and December of a given year
33    being due by January 20 of the following year.
34        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
 
                            -17-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
 2    liability  to  the  Department  does  not  exceed  $50,   the
 3    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
 4    basis,  with the return for a given year being due by January
 5    20 of the following year.
 6        Such quarter annual and annual returns, as  to  form  and
 7    substance,  shall  be  subject  to  the  same requirements as
 8    monthly returns.
 9        Notwithstanding  any  other   provision   in   this   Act
10    concerning  the  time  within  which  a retailer may file his
11    return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a
12    kind of business  which  makes  him  responsible  for  filing
13    returns  under  this  Act,  such  retailer shall file a final
14    return under this Act with the Department not more  than  one
15    month after discontinuing such business.
16        In  addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
17    aircraft, and trailers that are  required  to  be  registered
18    with  an  agency  of  this State, every retailer selling this
19    kind of tangible  personal  property  shall  file,  with  the
20    Department,  upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
21    Department, a separate return for each such item of  tangible
22    personal  property  which the retailer sells, except that if,
23    in  the  same  transaction,  (i)  a  retailer  of   aircraft,
24    watercraft,  motor  vehicles  or trailers transfers more than
25    one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
26    aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer  retailer  for
27    the  purpose  of  resale  or  (ii)  a  retailer  of aircraft,
28    watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers  more  than
29    one  aircraft,  watercraft,  motor  vehicle,  or trailer to a
30    purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock  as  provided
31    in  Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may report the
32    transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor  vehicles  or
33    trailers  involved  in  that transaction to the Department on
34    the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting  return  form.
 
                            -18-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    For  purposes  of this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2,
 2    Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section  3-2  of
 3    the  Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal watercraft,
 4    or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
 5        The transaction reporting return in  the  case  of  motor
 6    vehicles  or trailers that are required to be registered with
 7    an agency of this State, shall be the same  document  as  the
 8    Uniform  Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
 9    Vehicle Code and must  show  the  name  and  address  of  the
10    seller;  the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
11    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
12    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
13    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
14    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
15    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
16    payable after deducting  such  trade-in  allowance  from  the
17    total  selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
18    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
19    from the purchaser by the retailer on  such  transaction  (or
20    satisfactory  evidence  that  such  tax  is  not  due in that
21    particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact);  the
22    place  and  date  of the sale; a sufficient identification of
23    the property sold; such other information as is  required  in
24    Section  5-402  of  the Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other
25    information as the Department may reasonably require.
26        The  transaction  reporting  return  in   the   case   of
27    watercraft and aircraft must show the name and address of the
28    seller;  the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of
29    the  selling  price  including  the  amount  allowed  by  the
30    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
31    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
32    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows
33    an exemption for the value of traded-in property; the balance
34    payable after deducting  such  trade-in  allowance  from  the
 
                            -19-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    total  selling price; the amount of tax due from the retailer
 2    with respect to such transaction; the amount of tax collected
 3    from the purchaser by the retailer on  such  transaction  (or
 4    satisfactory  evidence  that  such  tax  is  not  due in that
 5    particular instance, if that is claimed to be the fact);  the
 6    place  and  date  of the sale, a sufficient identification of
 7    the  property  sold,  and  such  other  information  as   the
 8    Department may reasonably require.
 9        Such  transaction  reporting  return  shall  be filed not
10    later than 20 days after the date of  delivery  of  the  item
11    that  is  being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any
12    time  sooner  than  that  if  he  chooses  to  do  so.    The
13    transaction  reporting  return and tax remittance or proof of
14    exemption from the tax that is imposed by  this  Act  may  be
15    transmitted to the Department by way of the State agency with
16    which,  or  State  officer  with  whom, the tangible personal
17    property  must  be  titled  or  registered  (if  titling   or
18    registration  is  required) if the Department and such agency
19    or State officer determine that this procedure will  expedite
20    the processing of applications for title or registration.
21        With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
22    shall  remit  the  proper  amount of tax due (or shall submit
23    satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
24    the case), to the Department or  its  agents,  whereupon  the
25    Department  shall  issue,  in  the  purchaser's  name,  a tax
26    receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the  Department  is
27    satisfied  that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
28    purchaser may submit to  the  agency  with  which,  or  State
29    officer  with  whom,  he  must title or register the tangible
30    personal  property  that   is   involved   (if   titling   or
31    registration  is  required)  in  support  of such purchaser's
32    application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence  of
33    title or registration to such tangible personal property.
34        No  retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
 
                            -20-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Act precludes a user, who has paid  the  proper  tax  to  the
 2    retailer,  from  obtaining  his certificate of title or other
 3    evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
 4    is required) upon satisfying the Department  that  such  user
 5    has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer.  The
 6    Department  shall  adopt  appropriate  rules to carry out the
 7    mandate of this paragraph.
 8        If the user who would otherwise pay tax to  the  retailer
 9    wants  the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
10    of tax or proof of exemption made to  the  Department  before
11    the  retailer  is willing to take these actions and such user
12    has not paid the tax to the retailer, such user  may  certify
13    to  the fact of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the
14    Department   being   satisfied   of   the   truth   of   such
15    certification)  transmit  the  information  required  by  the
16    transaction reporting return and the remittance  for  tax  or
17    proof  of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his
18    tax receipt or exemption determination, in  which  event  the
19    transaction  reporting  return  and  tax remittance (if a tax
20    payment was required) shall be credited by the Department  to
21    the  proper  retailer's  account  with  the  Department,  but
22    without  the  2.1%  or  1.75%  discount  provided for in this
23    Section being allowed.  When the user pays the  tax  directly
24    to  the  Department,  he shall pay the tax in the same amount
25    and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
26    had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
27        Where a retailer collects the tax  with  respect  to  the
28    selling  price  of  tangible personal property which he sells
29    and the purchaser thereafter returns such  tangible  personal
30    property  and  the retailer refunds the selling price thereof
31    to the purchaser, such retailer shall  also  refund,  to  the
32    purchaser,  the  tax  so  collected  from the purchaser. When
33    filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
34    to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount  of  the
 
                            -21-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    tax  so  refunded  by him to the purchaser from any other use
 2    tax which such retailer may be required to pay  or  remit  to
 3    the Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the
 4    tax  to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department
 5    by  such  retailer.   If  the  retailer  has  not  previously
 6    remitted the amount of such tax  to  the  Department,  he  is
 7    entitled  to  no deduction under this Act upon refunding such
 8    tax to the purchaser.
 9        Any retailer filing a return  under  this  Section  shall
10    also  include  (for  the  purpose  of paying tax thereon) the
11    total tax covered by such return upon the  selling  price  of
12    tangible  personal property purchased by him at retail from a
13    retailer, but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not
14    collected from the retailer  filing  such  return,  and  such
15    retailer shall remit the amount of such tax to the Department
16    when filing such return.
17        If  experience  indicates  such action to be practicable,
18    the Department may prescribe and  furnish  a  combination  or
19    joint return which will enable retailers, who are required to
20    file   returns   hereunder  and  also  under  the  Retailers'
21    Occupation Tax Act, to furnish  all  the  return  information
22    required by both Acts on the one form.
23        Where  the retailer has more than one business registered
24    with the Department under separate  registration  under  this
25    Act,  such retailer may not file each return that is due as a
26    single return covering all such  registered  businesses,  but
27    shall   file   separate  returns  for  each  such  registered
28    business.
29        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department
30    shall  pay  into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a
31    special fund in the State Treasury which is  hereby  created,
32    the  net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1%
33    tax on sales of food for human consumption  which  is  to  be
34    consumed  off  the  premises  where  it  is  sold (other than

11    retailer  and  which  is titled or registered by an agency of
12    this State's government.

26    pay  into  the  State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of
27    the net revenue realized for the  preceding  month  from  the

29    at  State  universities  and  public community colleges or at
30    institutions of higher learning as defined  in  the  Illinois
31    Financial Assistance Act for Nonpublic Institutions of Higher
32    Learning.

24    6.25% of the selling  price  of  tangible  personal  property
25    transferred  as  an incident to the sale of service, but, for
26    the purpose of computing this tax,  in  no  event  shall  the
27    selling  price be less than the cost price of the property to
28    the serviceman.
29        Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31,  2000,
30    with  respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the
31    Motor Fuel Tax Law, and gasohol, as defined in  Section  3-40
32    of the Use Tax Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%.
 
                            -29-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1        With  respect  to gasohol, as defined in the Use Tax Act,
 2    the tax imposed by this Act applies to  70%  of  the  selling
 3    price  of  property transferred as an incident to the sale of
 4    service on or after January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003,
 5    and to 100% of the selling price thereafter.
 6        Beginning  July  1,  2003,  with  respect  to   textbooks
 7    required  for  use at State universities and public community
 8    colleges or at institutions of higher learning as defined  in
 9    the   Illinois   Financial   Assistance   Act  for  Nonpublic
10    Institutions of Higher Learning, the tax is  imposed  at  the
11    rate  of  1.25%.  The Department may adopt rules necessary to
12    implement and administer the 1.25% rate on textbooks.
13        At the election of any  registered  serviceman  made  for
14    each  fiscal  year,  sales  of service in which the aggregate
15    annual cost price of tangible personal  property  transferred
16    as  an  incident to the sales of service is less than 35%, or
17    75% in the case of servicemen transferring prescription drugs
18    or servicemen engaged in  graphic  arts  production,  of  the
19    aggregate  annual  total  gross  receipts  from  all sales of
20    service, the tax imposed by this Act shall be  based  on  the
21    serviceman's  cost  price  of  the tangible personal property
22    transferred as an incident to the sale of those services.
23        The tax shall be imposed  at  the  rate  of  1%  on  food
24    prepared  for  immediate consumption and transferred incident
25    to a sale of service subject  to  this  Act  or  the  Service
26    Occupation  Tax  Act by an entity licensed under the Hospital
27    Licensing Act, the Nursing Home Care Act, or the  Child  Care
28    Act of 1969.  The tax shall also be imposed at the rate of 1%
29    on  food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the
30    premises where it is sold (other  than  alcoholic  beverages,
31    soft  drinks,  and  food that has been prepared for immediate
32    consumption and is not otherwise included in this  paragraph)
33    and   prescription   and  nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,
34    medical appliances, modifications to a motor vehicle for  the
 
                            -30-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    purpose  of  rendering  it  usable  by a disabled person, and
 2    insulin, urine testing materials, syringes, and needles  used
 3    by  diabetics,  for  human  use.  For  the  purposes  of this
 4    Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete, finished,
 5    ready-to-use, non-alcoholic drink, whether carbonated or not,
 6    including but not limited to soda water, cola,  fruit  juice,
 7    vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all other preparations
 8    commonly known as soft drinks of whatever kind or description
 9    that  are  contained  in  any  closed  or sealed bottle, can,
10    carton, or container, regardless of size.  "Soft drinks" does
11    not  include  coffee,  tea,  non-carbonated   water,   infant
12    formula,  milk  or  milk  products  as defined in the Grade A
13    Pasteurized Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks  containing
14    50% or more natural fruit or vegetable juice.
15        Notwithstanding  any  other provisions of this Act, "food
16    for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
17    where it is sold" includes all food sold  through  a  vending
18    machine,  except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that are
19    dispensed hot from  a  vending  machine,  regardless  of  the
20    location of the vending machine.
21        If  the  property  that  is acquired from a serviceman is
22    acquired outside Illinois and used  outside  Illinois  before
23    being  brought  to Illinois for use here and is taxable under
24    this Act, the "selling price" on which the  tax  is  computed
25    shall  be  reduced  by an amount that represents a reasonable
26    allowance  for  depreciation  for   the   period   of   prior
27    out-of-state use.

31        (35 ILCS 110/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.39)
32        Sec.   9.  Each  serviceman  required  or  authorized  to
33    collect the tax herein imposed shall pay  to  the  Department
 
                            -31-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    the  amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the
 2    time when he is required to file his return  for  the  period
 3    during  which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1%
 4    prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75% on and  after  January  1,
 5    1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is
 6    allowed  to reimburse the serviceman for expenses incurred in
 7    collecting the tax, keeping  records,  preparing  and  filing
 8    returns,   remitting  the  tax  and  supplying  data  to  the
 9    Department on request. A serviceman need not remit that  part
10    of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is required
11    to pay and does pay the tax imposed by the Service Occupation
12    Tax  Act  with  respect  to his sale of service involving the
13    incidental transfer by him of the same property.
14        Except as provided hereinafter in  this  Section,  on  or
15    before  the  twentieth  day  of  each  calendar  month,  such
16    serviceman  shall  file  a  return for the preceding calendar
17    month in accordance with reasonable Rules and Regulations  to
18    be  promulgated by the Department. Such return shall be filed
19    on a form prescribed by the Department and shall contain such
20    information as the Department may reasonably require.
21        The Department may require  returns  to  be  filed  on  a
22    quarterly  basis.  If so required, a return for each calendar
23    quarter shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of  the
24    calendar  month  following  the end of such calendar quarter.
25    The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
26    each of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on  or
27    before  the  twentieth  day  of the following calendar month,
28    stating:
29             1.  The name of the seller;
30             2.  The address of the principal place  of  business
31        from which he engages in business as a serviceman in this
32        State;
33             3.  The total amount of taxable receipts received by
34        him   during  the  preceding  calendar  month,  including
 
                            -32-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1        receipts  from  charge  and  time  sales,  but  less  all
 2        deductions allowed by law;
 3             4.  The amount of credit provided in Section  2d  of
 4        this Act;
 5             5.  The amount of tax due;
 6             5-5.  The signature of the taxpayer; and
 7             6.  Such   other   reasonable   information  as  the
 8        Department may require.
 9        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
10    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
11    the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown  to
12    be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
13        Beginning  October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
14    monthly tax liability of $150,000  or  more  shall  make  all
15    payments  required  by  rules of the Department by electronic
16    funds transfer.  Beginning October 1, 1994,  a  taxpayer  who
17    has  an  average  monthly  tax  liability of $100,000 or more
18    shall make all payments required by rules of  the  Department
19    by  electronic  funds transfer.  Beginning October 1, 1995, a
20    taxpayer who has an average monthly tax liability of  $50,000
21    or  more  shall  make  all  payments required by rules of the
22    Department by electronic funds transfer. Beginning October 1,
23    2000, a taxpayer who has an annual tax liability of  $200,000
24    or  more  shall  make  all  payments required by rules of the
25    Department by electronic funds transfer.   The  term  "annual
26    tax liability" shall be the sum of the taxpayer's liabilities
27    under   this  Act,  and  under  all  other  State  and  local
28    occupation and use tax laws administered by  the  Department,
29    for  the  immediately  preceding  calendar  year.    The term
30    "average  monthly  tax  liability"  means  the  sum  of   the
31    taxpayer's  liabilities  under  this Act, and under all other
32    State and local occupation and use tax laws  administered  by
33    the  Department,  for the immediately preceding calendar year
34    divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a  taxpayer  who
 
                            -33-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    has a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b)
 2    of  Section  2505-210  of the Department of Revenue Law shall
 3    make all payments required by  rules  of  the  Department  by
 4    electronic funds transfer.
 5        Before  August  1  of  each  year  beginning in 1993, the
 6    Department  shall  notify  all  taxpayers  required  to  make
 7    payments by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required
 8    to make payments by  electronic  funds  transfer  shall  make
 9    those payments for a minimum of one year beginning on October
10    1.
11        Any  taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
12    funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
13    with the permission of the Department.
14        All taxpayers required  to  make  payment  by  electronic
15    funds  transfer  and  any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily
16    make payments by electronic funds transfer shall  make  those
17    payments in the manner authorized by the Department.
18        The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
19    effectuate  a  program  of  electronic funds transfer and the
20    requirements of this Section.
21        If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
22    return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax  liability
23    to  the  Department  does not exceed $200, the Department may
24    authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual  basis,
25    with  the  return  for January, February and March of a given
26    year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return  for
27    April,  May  and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
28    such year; with the return for July, August and September  of
29    a  given  year being due by October 20 of such year, and with
30    the return for October, November and December of a given year
31    being due by January 20 of the following year.
32        If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
33    or quarterly return and if the serviceman's  average  monthly
34    tax  liability  to  the  Department  does not exceed $50, the
 
                            -34-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
 2    basis, with the return for a given year being due by  January
 3    20 of the following year.
 4        Such  quarter  annual  and annual returns, as to form and
 5    substance, shall be  subject  to  the  same  requirements  as
 6    monthly returns.
 7        Notwithstanding   any   other   provision   in  this  Act
 8    concerning the time within which a serviceman  may  file  his
 9    return, in the case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in
10    a  kind  of  business  which makes him responsible for filing
11    returns under this Act, such serviceman shall  file  a  final
12    return  under  this  Act  with the Department not more than 1
13    month after discontinuing such business.
14        Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect  to  the
15    selling  price  of  property which he sells and the purchaser
16    thereafter returns such property and the  serviceman  refunds
17    the  selling  price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman
18    shall also refund, to the purchaser,  the  tax  so  collected
19    from  the purchaser. When filing his return for the period in
20    which he refunds such tax to the  purchaser,  the  serviceman
21    may  deduct  the  amount of the tax so refunded by him to the
22    purchaser from any other Service Use Tax, Service  Occupation
23    Tax,   retailers'  occupation  tax  or  use  tax  which  such
24    serviceman may be required to pay or remit to the Department,
25    as shown by such return, provided that the amount of the  tax
26    to  be  deducted  shall  previously have been remitted to the
27    Department by such serviceman. If the  serviceman  shall  not
28    previously  have  remitted  the  amount  of  such  tax to the
29    Department, he shall be entitled to  no  deduction  hereunder
30    upon refunding such tax to the purchaser.
31        Any  serviceman  filing  a  return  hereunder  shall also
32    include the total tax upon  the  selling  price  of  tangible
33    personal  property purchased for use by him as an incident to
34    a sale of service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount
 
                            -35-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    of such tax to the Department when filing such return.
 2        If experience indicates such action  to  be  practicable,
 3    the  Department  may  prescribe  and furnish a combination or
 4    joint return which will enable servicemen, who  are  required
 5    to   file  returns  hereunder  and  also  under  the  Service
 6    Occupation Tax Act, to furnish  all  the  return  information
 7    required by both Acts on the one form.
 8        Where   the   serviceman   has  more  than  one  business
 9    registered with the Department  under  separate  registration
10    hereunder, such serviceman shall not file each return that is
11    due   as   a  single  return  covering  all  such  registered
12    businesses, but shall file separate  returns  for  each  such
13    registered business.
14        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
15    shall pay into the State and Local Tax Reform Fund, a special
16    fund in the State Treasury, the net revenue realized for  the
17    preceding  month  from  the 1% tax on sales of food for human
18    consumption which is to be consumed off the premises where it
19    is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food
20    which  has  been  prepared  for  immediate  consumption)  and
21    prescription and nonprescription  medicines,  drugs,  medical
22    appliances and insulin, urine testing materials, syringes and
23    needles used by diabetics.
24        Beginning  January  1,  1990,  each  month the Department
25    shall pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund  20%
26    of  the net revenue realized for the preceding month from the
27    6.25%  general  rate  on  transfers  of   tangible   personal
28    property,  other  than  tangible  personal  property which is
29    purchased outside Illinois at  retail  from  a  retailer  and
30    which  is  titled  or registered by an agency of this State's
31    government.
32        Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall
33    pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform  Fund  100%  of
34    the  net  revenue  realized  for the preceding month from the
 
                            -36-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    1.25% rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
 2        Beginning August 1, 2003, each month the Department shall
 3    pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform  Fund  100%  of
 4    the  net  revenue  realized  for the preceding month from the
 5    1.25% rate on the selling price of textbooks required for use
 6    at State universities and public  community  colleges  or  at
 7    institutions  of  higher  learning as defined in the Illinois
 8    Financial Assistance Act for Nonpublic Institutions of Higher
 9    Learning.
10        Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department
11    pursuant to this Act, (a)  1.75% thereof shall be  paid  into
12    the  Build  Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2%
13    and on and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof  shall  be   paid
14    into  the  Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in
15    any fiscal year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%,
16    as the case may be, of the moneys received by the  Department
17    and required to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant
18    to  Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9
19    of the Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, and
20    Section 9 of the Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts  being
21    hereinafter  called the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2%
22    or 3.8%, as the case may  be,  of  moneys  being  hereinafter
23    called  the  "Tax Act Amount", and (2) the amount transferred
24    to the Build Illinois Fund from the State and Local Sales Tax
25    Reform Fund shall be less than the Annual  Specified   Amount
26    (as  defined  in  Section  3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
27    Act), an amount equal to the difference shall be  immediately
28    paid  into the Build Illinois Fund from other moneys received
29    by the Department pursuant  to  the  Tax  Acts;  and  further
30    provided,  that  if on the last business day of any month the
31    sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount required to be  deposited  into
32    the  Build  Illinois  Bond Account in the Build Illinois Fund
33    during such month and (2) the amount transferred during  such
34    month  to  the  Build  Illinois Fund from the State and Local
 
                            -37-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less than 1/12  of  the
 2    Annual  Specified  Amount,  an amount equal to the difference
 3    shall be immediately paid into the Build Illinois  Fund  from
 4    other  moneys  received by the Department pursuant to the Tax
 5    Acts; and, further provided,  that  in  no  event  shall  the
 6    payments  required  under  the  preceding  proviso  result in
 7    aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund  pursuant  to
 8    this  clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of the greater
 9    of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual Specified Amount
10    for such fiscal year; and, further provided, that the amounts
11    payable into the Build Illinois Fund under  this  clause  (b)
12    shall be payable only until such time as the aggregate amount
13    on  deposit  under each trust indenture securing Bonds issued
14    and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois  Bond  Act  is
15    sufficient, taking into account any future investment income,
16    to  fully provide, in accordance with such indenture, for the
17    defeasance of or the payment of the principal of, premium, if
18    any, and interest on the Bonds secured by such indenture  and
19    on  any  Bonds  expected to be issued thereafter and all fees
20    and costs payable with respect thereto, all as  certified  by
21    the  Director  of  the  Bureau of the Budget.  If on the last
22    business day of any month  in  which  Bonds  are  outstanding
23    pursuant to the Build Illinois Bond Act, the aggregate of the
24    moneys  deposited  in  the Build Illinois Bond Account in the
25    Build Illinois Fund in such month  shall  be  less  than  the
26    amount  required  to  be  transferred  in such month from the
27    Build Illinois  Bond  Account  to  the  Build  Illinois  Bond
28    Retirement  and  Interest  Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the

30    shall  be  immediately paid from other moneys received by the
31    Department pursuant to the Tax Acts  to  the  Build  Illinois
32    Fund;  provided,  however, that any amounts paid to the Build
33    Illinois Fund in any fiscal year pursuant  to  this  sentence
34    shall be deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b)
 
                            -38-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    of  the  preceding  sentence  and  shall  reduce  the  amount
 2    otherwise payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b)
 3    of  the  preceding  sentence.   The  moneys  received  by the
 4    Department pursuant to this Act and required to be  deposited
 5    into the Build Illinois Fund are subject to the pledge, claim

12        Section 20.  The Service Occupation Tax Act is amended by
13    changing Sections 3-10 and 9 as follows:

14        (35 ILCS 115/3-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.103-10)
15        Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax.   Unless  otherwise  provided  in
16    this  Section,  the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of
17    6.25% of the "selling price", as defined in Section 2 of  the
18    Service  Use Tax Act, of the tangible personal property.  For
19    the purpose of computing this tax,  in  no  event  shall  the
20    "selling price" be less than the cost price to the serviceman
21    of  the  tangible personal property transferred.  The selling
22    price of each item of tangible personal property  transferred
23    as  an  incident  of  a  sale  of  service  may be shown as a
24    distinct and separate item on the serviceman's billing to the
25    service customer. If the selling price is not so  shown,  the
26    selling  price of the tangible personal property is deemed to
27    be 50% of the serviceman's  entire  billing  to  the  service
28    customer.   When,  however, a serviceman contracts to design,
29    develop, and produce special order  machinery  or  equipment,
30    the   tax   imposed  by  this  Act  shall  be  based  on  the
31    serviceman's cost price of  the  tangible  personal  property
32    transferred incident to the completion of the contract.

 1        Beginning  on July 1, 2000 and through December 31, 2000,
 2    with respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of  the
 3    Motor  Fuel  Tax Law, and gasohol, as defined in Section 3-40
 4    of the Use Tax Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%.
 5        With respect to gasohol, as defined in the Use  Tax  Act,
 6    the  tax  imposed  by this Act shall apply to 70% of the cost
 7    price of property transferred as an incident to the  sale  of
 8    service on or after January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003,
 9    and to 100% of the cost price thereafter.
10        Beginning   July  1,  2003,  with  respect  to  textbooks
11    required for use at State universities and  public  community
12    colleges  or at institutions of higher learning as defined in
13    the  Illinois  Financial   Assistance   Act   for   Nonpublic
14    Institutions  of  Higher  Learning, the tax is imposed at the
15    rate of 1.25%. The Department may adopt  rules  necessary  to
16    implement and administer the 1.25% rate on textbooks.
17        At  the  election  of  any registered serviceman made for
18    each fiscal year, sales of service  in  which  the  aggregate
19    annual  cost  price of tangible personal property transferred
20    as an incident to the sales of service is less than  35%,  or
21    75% in the case of servicemen transferring prescription drugs
22    or  servicemen  engaged  in  graphic  arts production, of the
23    aggregate annual total  gross  receipts  from  all  sales  of
24    service,  the  tax  imposed by this Act shall be based on the
25    serviceman's cost price of  the  tangible  personal  property
26    transferred incident to the sale of those services.
27        The  tax  shall  be  imposed  at  the  rate of 1% on food
28    prepared for immediate consumption and  transferred  incident
29    to  a  sale  of  service  subject  to this Act or the Service
30    Occupation Tax Act by an entity licensed under  the  Hospital
31    Licensing  Act,  the Nursing Home Care Act, or the Child Care
32    Act of 1969.  The tax shall also be imposed at the rate of 1%
33    on food for human consumption that is to be consumed off  the
34    premises  where  it  is sold (other than alcoholic beverages,

 5    purpose of rendering it usable  by  a  disabled  person,  and
 6    insulin,  urine testing materials, syringes, and needles used
 7    by diabetics, for  human  use.   For  the  purposes  of  this
 8    Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete, finished,
 9    ready-to-use, non-alcoholic drink, whether carbonated or not,
10    including  but  not limited to soda water, cola, fruit juice,
11    vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all other preparations
12    commonly known as soft drinks of whatever kind or description
13    that are contained in any closed or sealed  can,  carton,  or
14    container,  regardless  of  size.   "Soft  drinks"  does  not
15    include  coffee,  tea,  non-carbonated water, infant formula,
16    milk or milk products as defined in the Grade  A  Pasteurized
17    Milk  and Milk Products Act, or drinks containing 50% or more
18    natural fruit or vegetable juice.
19        Notwithstanding any other provisions of this  Act,  "food
20    for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
21    where  it  is  sold" includes all food sold through a vending
22    machine, except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that  are
23    dispensed  hot  from  a  vending  machine,  regardless of the
24    location of the vending machine.

28        Sec.  9.   Each  serviceman  required  or  authorized  to
29    collect  the  tax  herein imposed shall pay to the Department
30    the amount of such tax at the time when  he  is  required  to
31    file  his  return  for  the  period during which such tax was
32    collectible, less a discount of  2.1%  prior  to  January  1,

 2    reimburse  the serviceman for expenses incurred in collecting
 3    the tax,  keeping  records,  preparing  and  filing  returns,
 4    remitting  the  tax  and  supplying data to the Department on
 5    request.
 6        Where such tangible personal property  is  sold  under  a
 7    conditional  sales  contract, or under any other form of sale
 8    wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part  thereof,
 9    is  extended  beyond  the  close  of the period for which the
10    return is filed, the serviceman, in collecting  the  tax  may
11    collect,  for each tax return period, only the tax applicable
12    to the part of the selling  price  actually  received  during
13    such tax return period.
14        Except  as  provided  hereinafter  in this Section, on or
15    before  the  twentieth  day  of  each  calendar  month,  such
16    serviceman shall file a return  for  the  preceding  calendar
17    month  in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to
18    be promulgated by the Department of  Revenue.    Such  return
19    shall  be  filed  on  a form prescribed by the Department and
20    shall  contain  such  information  as  the   Department   may
21    reasonably require.
22        The  Department  may  require  returns  to  be filed on a
23    quarterly basis.  If so required, a return for each  calendar
24    quarter  shall be filed on or before the twentieth day of the
25    calendar month following the end of  such  calendar  quarter.
26    The taxpayer shall also file a return with the Department for
27    each  of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
28    before the twentieth day of  the  following  calendar  month,
29    stating:
30             1.  The name of the seller;
31             2.  The  address  of the principal place of business
32        from which he engages in business as a serviceman in this
33        State;
34             3.  The total amount of taxable receipts received by

 3        deductions allowed by law;
 4             4.  The  amount  of credit provided in Section 2d of
 5        this Act;
 6             5.  The amount of tax due;
 7             5-5.  The signature of the taxpayer; and
 8             6.  Such  other  reasonable   information   as   the
 9        Department may require.
10        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
11    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
12    the  return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to
13    be due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
14        A serviceman may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase  Credit
15    certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Service Use
16    Tax as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act if
17    the  purchaser  provides  the  appropriate  documentation  as
18    required  by  Section  3-70  of  the  Service Use Tax Act.  A
19    Manufacturer's Purchase Credit certification, accepted  by  a
20    serviceman as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax
21    Act,  may  be  used  by  that  serviceman  to satisfy Service
22    Occupation  Tax  liability  in  the  amount  claimed  in  the
23    certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to
24    tax from a qualifying purchase.
25        If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to  the
26    Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize
27    his  returns  to be filed on a quarter annual basis, with the
28    return for January, February and March of a given year  being
29    due  by April 20 of such year; with the return for April, May
30    and June of a given year being due by July 20 of  such  year;

 3    his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with  the  return
 4    for  a  given  year  being due by January 20 of the following
 5    year.
 6        Such quarter annual and annual returns, as  to  form  and

22    annual  return  a  schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2
23    amounts and the reasons for the difference.   The  taxpayer's
24    annual  return to the Department shall also disclose the cost
25    of goods sold by the taxpayer during the year covered by such
26    return, opening and closing inventories  of  such  goods  for
27    such  year, cost of goods used from stock or taken from stock
28    and given away by the taxpayer during  such  year,  pay  roll

31    deems  would  be  helpful  in determining the accuracy of the
32    monthly, quarterly or annual returns filed by  such  taxpayer
33    as hereinbefore provided for in this Section.
34        If the annual information return required by this Section

 1    is  not  filed  when  and  as required, the taxpayer shall be
 2    liable as follows:
 3             (i)  Until January 1, 1994, the  taxpayer  shall  be
 4        liable  for  a  penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due
 5        from such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be
 6        covered by the annual return for each month  or  fraction
 7        of  a  month  until such return is filed as required, the
 8        penalty to be assessed and collected in the  same  manner
 9        as any other penalty provided for in this Act.
10             (ii)  On  and  after  January  1, 1994, the taxpayer
11        shall be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4
12        of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
13        The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
14    ranking manager shall sign the annual return to  certify  the
15    accuracy  of  the  information contained therein.  Any person
16    who willfully signs the annual  return  containing  false  or
17    inaccurate   information  shall  be  guilty  of  perjury  and
18    punished accordingly.  The annual return form  prescribed  by
19    the  Department  shall  include  a  warning  that  the person
20    signing the return may be liable for perjury.
21        The foregoing portion  of  this  Section  concerning  the
22    filing  of  an annual information return shall not apply to a
23    serviceman who is not required to file an income  tax  return
24    with the United States Government.
25        As  soon  as  possible after the first day of each month,
26    upon  certification  of  the  Department  of   Revenue,   the
27    Comptroller  shall  order transferred and the Treasurer shall
28    transfer from the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel  Tax
29    Fund  an  amount  equal  to  1.7%  of  80% of the net revenue
30    realized under this  Act  for  the  second  preceding  month.
31    Beginning  April 1, 2000, this transfer is no longer required
32    and shall not be made.
33        Net revenue realized for a month  shall  be  the  revenue
34    collected  by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount
 
                            -56-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    paid out during  that  month  as  refunds  to  taxpayers  for
 2    overpayment of liability.
 3        For  greater  simplicity  of  administration, it shall be
 4    permissible  for  manufacturers,  importers  and  wholesalers
 5    whose products are sold by numerous servicemen  in  Illinois,
 6    and  who  wish  to  do  so,  to assume the responsibility for
 7    accounting and paying to  the  Department  all  tax  accruing
 8    under  this Act with respect to such sales, if the servicemen
 9    who are  affected  do  not  make  written  objection  to  the
10    Department to this arrangement.

15        Section 25.  The Retailers' Occupation Tax Act is amended
16    by changing Sections 2-10 and 3 as follows:

17        (35 ILCS 120/2-10) (from Ch. 120, par. 441-10)
18        Sec.  2-10.  Rate  of  tax.  Unless otherwise provided in
19    this Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the  rate  of
20    6.25%  of  gross  receipts  from  sales  of tangible personal
21    property made in the course of business.
22        Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31,  2000,
23    with  respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the
24    Motor Fuel Tax Law, and gasohol, as defined in  Section  3-40
25    of the Use Tax Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%.
26        Within   14   days  after  the  effective  date  of  this
27    amendatory Act of the 91st General Assembly, each retailer of
28    motor fuel and gasohol shall cause the following notice to be
29    posted  in  a  prominently  visible  place  on  each   retail
30    dispensing  device  that  is  used  to dispense motor fuel or
31    gasohol in the State of Illinois:  "As of July 1,  2000,  the
32    State  of  Illinois has eliminated the State's share of sales
 
                            -57-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    tax on motor fuel and gasohol through December 31, 2000.  The
 2    price  on  this  pump  should  reflect the elimination of the
 3    tax."  The notice shall be printed in bold print  on  a  sign
 4    that is no smaller than 4 inches by 8 inches.  The sign shall
 5    be  clearly  visible to customers.  Any retailer who fails to
 6    post or maintain a required sign through December 31, 2000 is
 7    guilty of a petty offense for which the fine  shall  be  $500
 8    per day per each retail premises where a violation occurs.
 9        With  respect  to gasohol, as defined in the Use Tax Act,
10    the tax imposed by this Act applies to 70% of the proceeds of
11    sales made on or after January 1, 1990, and  before  July  1,
12    2003, and to 100% of the proceeds of sales made thereafter.
13        Beginning   July  1,  2003,  with  respect  to  textbooks
14    required for use at State universities and  public  community
15    colleges  or at institutions of higher learning as defined in
16    the  Illinois  Financial   Assistance   Act   for   Nonpublic
17    Institutions  of  Higher  Learning, the tax is imposed at the
18    rate of 1.25%.  The Department may adopt rules  necessary  to
19    implement and administer the 1.25% rate on textbooks.
20        With  respect to food for human consumption that is to be
21    consumed off the  premises  where  it  is  sold  (other  than
22    alcoholic  beverages,  soft  drinks,  and  food that has been
23    prepared for  immediate  consumption)  and  prescription  and
24    nonprescription   medicines,   drugs,   medical   appliances,
25    modifications to a motor vehicle for the purpose of rendering
26    it  usable  by  a disabled person, and insulin, urine testing
27    materials, syringes, and needles used by diabetics, for human
28    use, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1%. For  the  purposes
29    of  this  Section, the term "soft drinks" means any complete,
30    finished,   ready-to-use,   non-alcoholic   drink,    whether
31    carbonated  or  not, including but not limited to soda water,
32    cola, fruit juice, vegetable juice, carbonated water, and all
33    other preparations commonly known as soft drinks of  whatever
34    kind  or  description  that  are  contained  in any closed or

 4    the Grade A Pasteurized Milk and Milk Products Act, or drinks
 5    containing 50% or more natural fruit or vegetable juice.
 6        Notwithstanding any other provisions of this  Act,  "food
 7    for human consumption that is to be consumed off the premises
 8    where  it  is  sold" includes all food sold through a vending
 9    machine, except  soft  drinks  and  food  products  that  are
10    dispensed  hot  from  a  vending  machine,  regardless of the
11    location of the vending machine.

13        If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
14    the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
15    the  return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to

29    receipts subject to tax from a qualifying purchase.

33    nearest whole-dollar amount in any case where the  fractional
34    part  of  a  dollar is 50 cents or more, and decreased to the

 1    nearest whole-dollar amount where the fractional  part  of  a
 2    dollar is less than 50 cents.
 3        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
 4    return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
 5    the Department does  not  exceed  $200,  the  Department  may
 6    authorize  his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
 7    with the return for January, February and March  of  a  given

 9    April, May and June of a given year being due by July  20  of
10    such  year; with the return for July, August and September of

13    being due by January 20 of the following year.
14        If  the  retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
15    or quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
16    liability with  the  Department  does  not  exceed  $50,  the
17    Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
18    basis,  with the return for a given year being due by January
19    20 of the following year.
20        Such quarter annual and annual returns, as  to  form  and
21    substance,  shall  be  subject  to  the  same requirements as
22    monthly returns.
23        Notwithstanding  any  other   provision   in   this   Act
24    concerning  the  time  within  which  a retailer may file his
25    return, in the case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a
26    kind of business  which  makes  him  responsible  for  filing
27    returns  under  this  Act,  such  retailer shall file a final
28    return under this Act with the Department not more  than  one
29    month after discontinuing such business.
30        Where   the  same  person  has  more  than  one  business
31    registered with the Department under  separate  registrations
32    under  this Act, such person may not file each return that is
33    due  as  a  single  return  covering  all   such   registered
34    businesses,  but  shall  file  separate returns for each such
 
                            -63-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    registered business.
 2        In addition, with respect to motor vehicles,  watercraft,
 3    aircraft,  and  trailers  that  are required to be registered
 4    with an agency of this State,  every  retailer  selling  this
 5    kind  of  tangible  personal  property  shall  file, with the
 6    Department, upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by  the
 7    Department,  a separate return for each such item of tangible
 8    personal property which the retailer sells, except  that  if,
 9    in   the  same  transaction,  (i)  a  retailer  of  aircraft,
10    watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers  transfers  more  than
11    one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another
12    aircraft,  watercraft,  motor  vehicle  retailer  or  trailer
13    retailer  for  the  purpose  of  resale or (ii) a retailer of
14    aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or  trailers  transfers
15    more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
16    to  a  purchaser  for  use  as  a qualifying rolling stock as
17    provided in Section 2-5 of this Act,  then  that  seller  may
18    report  the  transfer  of  all  aircraft,  watercraft,  motor
19    vehicles  or  trailers  involved  in  that transaction to the
20    Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction  reporting
21    return  form.   For  purposes  of  this Section, "watercraft"
22    means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in
23    Section 3-2 of  the  Boat  Registration  and  Safety  Act,  a
24    personal  watercraft,  or  any  boat equipped with an inboard
25    motor.
26        Any retailer who sells only motor  vehicles,  watercraft,
27    aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with
28    an  agency  of  this State, so that all retailers' occupation
29    tax liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on
30    such transaction reporting returns and who is  not  otherwise
31    required  to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file
32    monthly or quarterly returns.  However, those retailers shall
33    be required to file returns on an annual basis.
34        The transaction reporting return, in the  case  of  motor
 
                            -64-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b

 7    retailer for traded-in property, if any; the  amount  allowed
 8    by the retailer for the traded-in tangible personal property,
 9    if  any,  to the extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows

21        The  transaction  reporting  return  in   the   case   of

23    seller; the name and address of the purchaser; the amount  of

                            -65-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    place and date of the sale, a  sufficient  identification  of
 2    the   property  sold,  and  such  other  information  as  the
 3    Department may reasonably require.
 4        Such transaction reporting  return  shall  be  filed  not
 5    later than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that
 6    is  being  sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time
 7    sooner than that if he chooses to  do  so.   The  transaction
 8    reporting  return  and  tax  remittance or proof of exemption
 9    from  the  Illinois  use  tax  may  be  transmitted  to   the
10    Department  by  way  of the State agency with which, or State
11    officer with whom the  tangible  personal  property  must  be
12    titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
13    if  the Department and such agency or State officer determine
14    that  this  procedure  will  expedite   the   processing   of
15    applications for title or registration.
16        With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
17    shall  remit  the  proper  amount of tax due (or shall submit
18    satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
19    the case), to the Department or  its  agents,  whereupon  the
20    Department  shall  issue,  in the purchaser's name, a use tax
21    receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the  Department  is
22    satisfied  that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
23    purchaser may submit to  the  agency  with  which,  or  State
24    officer  with  whom,  he  must title or register the tangible
25    personal  property  that   is   involved   (if   titling   or
26    registration  is  required)  in  support  of such purchaser's
27    application for an Illinois certificate or other evidence  of
28    title or registration to such tangible personal property.
29        No  retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
30    Act precludes a user, who has paid  the  proper  tax  to  the
31    retailer,  from  obtaining  his certificate of title or other
32    evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
33    is required) upon satisfying the Department  that  such  user
34    has paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer.  The
 
                            -66-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Department  shall  adopt  appropriate  rules to carry out the
 2    mandate of this paragraph.
 3        If the user who would otherwise pay tax to  the  retailer
 4    wants  the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
 5    of the tax or proof  of  exemption  made  to  the  Department
 6    before the retailer is willing to take these actions and such
 7    user  has  not  paid  the  tax to the retailer, such user may
 8    certify to the fact of such delay by  the  retailer  and  may
 9    (upon  the  Department  being  satisfied of the truth of such
10    certification)  transmit  the  information  required  by  the
11    transaction reporting return and the remittance  for  tax  or
12    proof  of exemption directly to the Department and obtain his
13    tax receipt or exemption determination, in  which  event  the
14    transaction  reporting  return  and  tax remittance (if a tax
15    payment was required) shall be credited by the Department  to
16    the  proper  retailer's  account  with  the  Department,  but
17    without  the  2.1%  or  1.75%  discount  provided for in this
18    Section being allowed.  When the user pays the  tax  directly
19    to  the  Department,  he shall pay the tax in the same amount
20    and in the same form in which it would be remitted if the tax
21    had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
22        Refunds made by the seller during  the  preceding  return
23    period   to  purchasers,  on  account  of  tangible  personal
24    property returned to  the  seller,  shall  be  allowed  as  a
25    deduction  under  subdivision  5  of his monthly or quarterly
26    return,  as  the  case  may  be,  in  case  the  seller   had
27    theretofore  included  the  receipts  from  the  sale of such
28    tangible personal property in a return filed by him  and  had
29    paid  the  tax  imposed  by  this  Act  with  respect to such
30    receipts.
31        Where the seller is a corporation, the  return  filed  on
32    behalf  of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
33    vice-president, secretary or treasurer  or  by  the  properly
34    accredited agent of such corporation.

 1        Where  the  seller  is  a  limited liability company, the
 2    return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
 3    be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited  agent
 4    of the limited liability company.
 5        Except  as  provided in this Section, the retailer filing
 6    the return under this Section shall, at the  time  of  filing
 7    such  return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed
 8    by this Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1,  1990
 9    and  1.75%  on  and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar
10    year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
11    retailer  for  the  expenses  incurred  in  keeping  records,
12    preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
13    data to the  Department  on  request.   Any  prepayment  made
14    pursuant  to  Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the
15    amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed.   In
16    the  case  of  retailers  who  report  and  pay  the tax on a
17    transaction  by  transaction  basis,  as  provided  in   this
18    Section,  such  discount  shall  be  taken with each such tax
19    remittance instead of when such retailer files  his  periodic
20    return.
21        Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
22    tax  liability  to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
23    Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use  Tax
24    Act,  excluding  any  liability  for  prepaid sales tax to be
25    remitted in accordance with  Section  2d  of  this  Act,  was
26    $10,000  or  more  during  the  preceding 4 complete calendar
27    quarters, he shall file a return  with  the  Department  each
28    month  by  the 20th day of the month next following the month
29    during which such tax liability is incurred  and  shall  make
30    payments  to  the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd
31    and last day of the month  during  which  such  liability  is
32    incurred.  On  and  after  October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's
33    average monthly tax liability to the  Department  under  this
34    Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the
 
                            -68-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    Service  Use  Tax  Act,  excluding  any liability for prepaid
 2    sales tax to be remitted in accordance  with  Section  2d  of
 3    this Act, was $20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete
 4    calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the Department
 5    each  month  by  the 20th day of the month next following the
 6    month during which such tax liability is incurred  and  shall
 7    make  payment  to  the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
 8    22nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
 9    incurred.  If the month during which such  tax  liability  is
10    incurred  began  prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall
11    be in an  amount  equal  to  1/4  of  the  taxpayer's  actual
12    liability  for  the  month or an amount set by the Department
13    not to exceed 1/4 of the average  monthly  liability  of  the
14    taxpayer  to  the  Department  for  the  preceding 4 complete
15    calendar quarters (excluding the month of  highest  liability
16    and  the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period).
17    If the month during which  such  tax  liability  is  incurred
18    begins  on  or  after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1,
19    1987, each payment shall be in an amount equal  to  22.5%  of
20    the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the
21    taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same  calendar  month of the
22    preceding year.  If the month during which such tax liability
23    is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987 and  prior  to
24    January  1, 1988, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
25    22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability  for  the  month  or
26    26.25%  of  the  taxpayer's  liability  for the same calendar
27    month of the preceding year.  If the month during which  such
28    tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1988,
29    and  prior  to January 1, 1989, or begins on or after January
30    1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of
31    the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25%  of  the
32    taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same  calendar  month of the
33    preceding year. If the month during which such tax  liability
34    is  incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and prior to
 
                            -69-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal  to
 2    22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25%
 3    of  the  taxpayer's  liability for the same calendar month of
 4    the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual liability
 5    for the quarter monthly reporting period.  The amount of such
 6    quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the  final
 7    tax  liability  of  the  taxpayer's  return  for  that month.
 8    Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the  requirement  of
 9    the  making  of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
10    taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of  $10,000
11    or  more  as  determined  in  the manner provided above shall
12    continue until such taxpayer's average monthly  liability  to
13    the  Department  during  the  preceding  4  complete calendar
14    quarters (excluding the month of highest  liability  and  the
15    month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
16    taxpayer's  average  monthly  liability  to the Department as
17    computed  for  each  calendar  quarter  of  the  4  preceding
18    complete  calendar  quarter  period  is  less  than  $10,000.
19    However, if  a  taxpayer  can  show  the  Department  that  a
20    substantial  change  in  the taxpayer's business has occurred
21    which causes the taxpayer  to  anticipate  that  his  average
22    monthly  tax  liability for the reasonably foreseeable future
23    will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
24    taxpayer may petition the Department for  a  change  in  such
25    taxpayer's  reporting  status.  On and after October 1, 2000,
26    once applicable, the requirement of  the  making  of  quarter
27    monthly  payments  to  the  Department by taxpayers having an
28    average  monthly  tax  liability  of  $20,000  or   more   as
29    determined  in the manner provided above shall continue until
30    such taxpayer's average monthly liability to  the  Department
31    during  the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding
32    the month of  highest  liability  and  the  month  of  lowest
33    liability)  is  less  than  $19,000  or until such taxpayer's
34    average monthly liability to the Department as  computed  for
 
                            -70-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    each  calendar  quarter  of the 4 preceding complete calendar
 2    quarter period is less than $20,000.  However, if a  taxpayer
 3    can  show  the  Department  that  a substantial change in the
 4    taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to
 5    anticipate that his average monthly  tax  liability  for  the
 6    reasonably  foreseeable  future  will  fall below the $20,000
 7    threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may  petition  the
 8    Department  for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
 9    The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting  status
10    unless  it  finds  that such change is seasonal in nature and
11    not likely to be long term.   If  any  such  quarter  monthly
12    payment  is not paid at the time or in the amount required by
13    this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
14    and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due
15    as a payment and the amount of such quarter  monthly  payment
16    actually  and timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has
17    previously made payments for that month to the Department  in
18    excess  of the minimum payments previously due as provided in
19    this Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules  and
20    regulations  to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and
21    quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other
22    than a calendar monthly basis.
23        The provisions of this paragraph apply before October  1,
24    2001.  Without  regard  to  whether a taxpayer is required to
25    make  quarter  monthly  payments  as  specified  above,   any
26    taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect
27    and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which
28    average in excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2
29    complete  calendar  quarters,  shall  file  a return with the
30    Department as required by Section 2f and shall make  payments
31    to  the  Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last
32    day of the month during which such liability is incurred.  If
33    the month during which such tax liability is  incurred  began
34    prior  to  the effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985,
 
                            -71-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
 2    taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d.  If  the  month
 3    during  which  such  tax  liability  is incurred begins on or
 4    after January 1, 1986, each payment shall  be  in  an  amount
 5    equal  to  22.5%  of  the taxpayer's actual liability for the
 6    month or 27.5% of  the  taxpayer's  liability  for  the  same
 7    calendar  month of the preceding calendar year.  If the month
 8    during which such tax liability  is  incurred  begins  on  or
 9    after  January  1,  1987,  each payment shall be in an amount
10    equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's  actual  liability  for  the
11    month  or  26.25%  of  the  taxpayer's liability for the same
12    calendar month of the preceding year.   The  amount  of  such
13    quarter  monthly payments shall be credited against the final
14    tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that  month  filed
15    under  this  Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.  Once
16    applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter  monthly
17    payments  to  the Department pursuant to this paragraph shall
18    continue until such taxpayer's average  monthly  prepaid  tax
19    collections during the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters
20    is  $25,000  or less.  If any such quarter monthly payment is
21    not paid at the time or in the amount required, the  taxpayer
22    shall   be   liable   for  penalties  and  interest  on  such
23    difference, except insofar as  the  taxpayer  has  previously
24    made  payments  for  that  month  in  excess  of  the minimum
25    payments previously due.
26        The provisions of  this  paragraph  apply  on  and  after
27    October  1,  2001.    Without regard to whether a taxpayer is
28    required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
29    any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d  of  this  Act  to
30    collect  and  remit  prepaid  taxes and has collected prepaid
31    taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during  the
32    preceding  4  complete  calendar quarters shall file a return
33    with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall  make
34    payments  to  the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd
 
                            -72-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    and last day of the  month  during  which  the  liability  is
 2    incurred.   Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5%
 3    of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month  or  25%  of
 4    the  taxpayer's  liability for the same calendar month of the
 5    preceding year.  The amount of the quarter  monthly  payments
 6    shall  be  credited  against  the  final tax liability of the
 7    taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section  or
 8    Section  2f,  as  the  case  may  be.   Once  applicable, the
 9    requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to  the
10    Department  pursuant  to  this paragraph shall continue until
11    the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
12    the preceding 4 complete  calendar  quarters  (excluding  the
13    month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability)
14    is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
15    liability  to  the  Department  as computed for each calendar
16    quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
17    than $20,000.  If any such quarter  monthly  payment  is  not
18    paid  at  the  time  or  in the amount required, the taxpayer
19    shall  be  liable  for  penalties  and   interest   on   such
20    difference,  except  insofar  as  the taxpayer has previously
21    made payments  for  that  month  in  excess  of  the  minimum
22    payments previously due.
23        If  any  payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
24    taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax  Act,  the
25    Service  Occupation  Tax  Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
26    shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
27    requested by the taxpayer, issue to  the  taxpayer  a  credit
28    memorandum  no  later than 30 days after the date of payment.
29    The  credit  evidenced  by  such  credit  memorandum  may  be
30    assigned by the taxpayer to a  similar  taxpayer  under  this
31    Act,  the  Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the
32    Service Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules  and
33    regulations  to  be prescribed by the Department.  If no such
34    request is made, the taxpayer may credit such excess  payment
 
                            -73-     LRB093 09153 SJM 09385 b
 1    against  tax  liability  subsequently  to  be remitted to the
 2    Department under this Act,  the  Use  Tax  Act,  the  Service
 3    Occupation  Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in accordance
 4    with reasonable  rules  and  regulations  prescribed  by  the
 5    Department.   If  the Department subsequently determined that
 6    all or any part of the credit taken was not actually  due  to
 7    the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount
 8    shall  be  reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between
 9    the credit taken and that actually  due,  and  that  taxpayer
10    shall   be   liable   for  penalties  and  interest  on  such
11    difference.
12        If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
13    Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
14    to the Department under this Act  for  the  month  which  the
15    taxpayer  is  filing a return, the Department shall issue the
16    taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
17        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department
18    shall  pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund
19    in the State  treasury  which  is  hereby  created,  the  net
20    revenue  realized  for the preceding month from the 1% tax on
21    sales of food for human consumption which is to  be  consumed
22    off  the  premises  where  it  is  sold (other than alcoholic
23    beverages, soft drinks and food which has been  prepared  for
24    immediate  consumption)  and prescription and nonprescription
25    medicines,  drugs,  medical  appliances  and  insulin,  urine
26    testing materials, syringes and needles used by diabetics.
27        Beginning January 1,  1990,  each  month  the  Department

 5    Revenue for the same period, the retailer shall attach to his

 8    annual  return to the Department shall also disclose the cost

18        If the annual information return required by this Section

20    liable as follows:
21             (i)  Until  January  1,  1994, the taxpayer shall be
22        liable for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of  the  tax  due
23        from such taxpayer under this Act during the period to be

25        of a month until such return is filed  as  required,  the
26        penalty  to  be assessed and collected in the same manner
27        as any other penalty provided for in this Act.
28             (ii)  On and after January  1,  1994,  the  taxpayer
29        shall be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4
30        of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
31        The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
32    ranking  manager  shall sign the annual return to certify the
33    accuracy of the information contained therein.    Any  person
34    who  willfully  signs  the  annual return containing false or

 3    the Department  shall  include  a  warning  that  the  person
 4    signing the return may be liable for perjury.
 5        The  provisions  of this Section concerning the filing of
 6    an annual information return do not apply to a  retailer  who
 7    is  not required to file an income tax return with the United
 8    States Government.
 9        As soon as possible after the first day  of  each  month,
10    upon   certification   of  the  Department  of  Revenue,  the
11    Comptroller shall order transferred and the  Treasurer  shall
12    transfer  from the General Revenue Fund to the Motor Fuel Tax
13    Fund an amount equal to  1.7%  of  80%  of  the  net  revenue
14    realized  under  this  Act  for  the  second preceding month.
15    Beginning April 1, 2000, this transfer is no longer  required
16    and shall not be made.

30    concessionaires and other sellers shall file their returns as
31    otherwise required in this Section.
