ARTICLE 15
29     Section 15-1. Short title. This Article may be cited as the
30 Watercraft Use Tax Law, and references in this Article to "this

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 10 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 Law" mean this Article.
2     Section 15-5. Definitions. For the purposes of this Law:
3     "Department" means the Department of Revenue.
4     "Purchase price" means the reasonable consideration paid
5 for a watercraft whether received in money or otherwise,
6 including, but not limited to, cash, credits, property, and
7 services, and including the value of any motor sold with, or in
8 conjunction with, the watercraft. Except in the case of
9 transfers between immediate family members, reasonable
10 consideration ordinarily means the fair market value on the
11 date the watercraft or the share of the watercraft was acquired
12 or the date the watercraft was brought into this State,
13 whichever is later, unless the taxpayer can demonstrate that a
14 different value is reasonable. In the case of transfers between
15 immediate family members, reasonable consideration ordinarily
16 means the consideration actually paid, unless it appears from
17 the facts and circumstances that the primary motivation of the
18 transfer was the avoidance of tax.
19     "Watercraft" means:
20         (1) Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4 watercraft, as
21     defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety
22     Act; or
23         (2) personal watercraft, as defined in Section 1-2 of
24     the Boat Registration and Safety Act.
25     Section 15-10. Tax imposed. A tax is hereby imposed on the
26 privilege of using, in this State, any watercraft acquired by
27 gift, transfer, or purchase after September 1, 2004. This tax
28 does not apply if: (i) the use of the watercraft is otherwise
29 taxed under the Use Tax Act; (ii) the watercraft is bought and
30 used by a governmental agency or a society, association,
31 foundation, or institution organized and operated exclusively
32 for charitable, religious, or educational purposes and that

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 11 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 entity has been issued an exemption identification number under
2 Section 1g of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act; (iii) the use
3 of the watercraft is not subject to the Use Tax Act by reason
4 of subsection (a), (b), (c), (d), or (e) of Section 3-55 of
5 that Act dealing with the prevention of actual or likely
6 multi-state taxation; (iv) the transfer is a gift to a
7 beneficiary in the administration of an estate and the
8 beneficiary is a surviving spouse; or (v) the watercraft is
9 exempted from the numbering provisions of Section 3-12 of the
10 Boat Registration and Safety Act. However, the exemption from
11 tax provided by item (v) shall not apply to a watercraft
12 exempted under paragraphs A, B, C, F, and G of Section 3-12 of
13 the Boat Registration and Safety Act if such watercraft are
14 used upon the waters of this State for more than 30 days in any
15 calendar year.
16     Section 15-15. Rate of tax.
17     The rate of tax is 6.25% of the purchase price for each
18 purchase of watercraft that is subject to tax under this Law.
19 When an ownership share of a watercraft is acquired, the tax is
20 imposed on the purchase price of that share. All owners are
21 jointly and severally liable for any tax due as a result of the
22 purchase, gift, or transfer of an ownership share of the
23 watercraft.
24     Section 15-20. Returns.
25     (a) The purchaser, transferee, or donee shall file with the
26 Department a return signed by the purchaser, transferee, or
27 donee on a form prescribed by the Department. The return shall
28 contain a verification in substantially the following form and
29 such other information as the Department may reasonably
30 require:
31
VERIFICATION
32     I declare that I have examined this return and, to the best

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 12 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     of my knowledge, it is true, correct, and complete. I
2     understand that the penalty for willfully filing a false
3     return is a fine not to exceed $1,000 or imprisonment in a
4     penal institution other than the penitentiary not to exceed
5     one year, or both a fine and imprisonment.
6     (b) The return and payment from the purchaser, transferee,
7 or donee shall be submitted to the Department within 30 days
8 after the date of purchase, donation, or other transfer or the
9 date the watercraft is brought into this State, whichever is
10 later. Payment of tax is a condition to securing certificate of
11 title for the watercraft from the Department of Natural
12 Resources. When a purchaser, transferee, or donee pays the tax
13 imposed by Section 5-10 of this Law, the Department (upon
14 request therefor from the purchaser, transferee, or donee)
15 shall issue an appropriate receipt to the purchaser,
16 transferee, or donee showing that he or she has paid the tax to
17 the Department. The receipt shall be sufficient to relieve the
18 purchaser, transferee, or donee from further liability for the
19 tax to which the receipt may refer.
20     Section 15-25. Filing false or incomplete return. Any
21 person required to file a return under this Law who willfully
22 files a false or incomplete return is guilty of a Class A
23 misdemeanor.
24     Section 15-30. Determining purchase price. For the purpose
25 of assisting in determining the validity of the purchase price
26 reported on returns filed with the Department, the Department
27 may furnish the following information to persons with whom the
28 Department has contracted for service related to making that
29 determination: (i) the purchase price stated on the return;
30 (ii) the watercraft identification number; (iii) the year, the
31 make, and the model name or number of the watercraft; (iv) the
32 purchase date; and (v) the hours of operation.
1     Section 15-35. Powers of Department. The Department has
2 full power to: (i) administer and enforce this Law; (ii)
3 collect all taxes, penalties, and interest due under this Law;
4 (iii) dispose of taxes, penalties, and interest so collected in
5 the manner set forth in this Law; and (iv) determine all rights
6 to credit memoranda or refunds arising on account of the
7 erroneous payment of tax, penalty, or interest under this Law.
8 In the administration of, and compliance with, this Law, the
9 Department and persons who are subject to this Law have the
10 same rights, remedies, privileges, immunities, powers, and
11 duties, and are subject to the same conditions, restrictions,
12 limitations, penalties, and definitions of terms, and employ
13 the same modes of procedure, as are prescribed in the Use Tax
14 Act (except for the provisions of Section 3-70), that are not
15 inconsistent with this Law, as fully as if the provisions of
16 the Use Tax Act were set forth in this Law. In addition to any
17 other penalties imposed under law, any person convicted of
18 violating the provisions of this Law shall be assessed a fine
19 of $1,000.
20     Section 15-40. Payments to State and Local Sales Tax Reform
21 Fund and General Revenue Fund. The Department shall each month,
22 upon collecting any taxes as provided in this Law, pay 20% of
23 the money collected into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform
24 Fund, a special fund in the State treasury, and 80% into the
25 General Revenue Fund.
26     Section 15-45. Rules. The Department has the authority to
27 adopt such rules as are reasonable and necessary to implement
28 the provisions of this Law.
29     Section 15-990. The Retailers' Occupation Tax Act is

10 manufacturer or graphic arts producer shall remain liable to
11 timely report all information required by the annual Report of
12 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used for all credit utilized by
13 a construction contractor.
14     No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned prior to July 1,
15 2003 may be used after October 1, 2003. The Manufacturer's
16 Purchase Credit may be used to satisfy liability under the Use
17 Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act due on the purchase of
18 production related tangible personal property (including
19 purchases by a manufacturer, by a graphic arts producer, or by
20 a lessor who rents or leases the use of the property to a
21 manufacturer or graphic arts producer) that does not otherwise
22 qualify for the manufacturing machinery and equipment
23 exemption or the graphic arts machinery and equipment
24 exemption. "Production related tangible personal property"
25 means (i) all tangible personal property used or consumed by
26 the purchaser in a manufacturing facility in which a
27 manufacturing process described in Section 2-45 of the
28 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act takes place, including tangible
29 personal property purchased for incorporation into real estate
30 within a manufacturing facility and including, but not limited
31 to, tangible personal property used or consumed in activities

10 inventory control, storage, staging, sorting, labeling,
11 mailing, tying, wrapping, and packaging; and (iii) all tangible
12 personal property used or consumed by the purchaser for
13 research and development. "Production related tangible
14 personal property" does not include (i) tangible personal
15 property used, within or without a manufacturing facility, in
16 sales, purchasing, accounting, fiscal management, marketing,
17 personnel recruitment or selection, or landscaping or (ii)
18 tangible personal property required to be titled or registered
19 with a department, agency, or unit of federal, state, or local
20 government. The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used,
21 prior to October 1, 2003, to satisfy the tax arising either
22 from the purchase of machinery and equipment on or after
23 January 1, 1995 for which the exemption provided by paragraph
24 (18) of Section 3-5 of this Act was erroneously claimed, or the
25 purchase of machinery and equipment on or after July 1, 1996
26 for which the exemption provided by paragraph (6) of Section
27 3-5 of this Act was erroneously claimed, but not in
28 satisfaction of penalty, if any, and interest for failure to
29 pay the tax when due. A purchaser of production related
30 tangible personal property who is required to pay Illinois Use
31 Tax or Service Use Tax on the purchase directly to the
32 Department may, prior to October 1, 2003, utilize the
33 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit in satisfaction of the tax
34 arising from that purchase, but not in satisfaction of penalty

2 Credit to purchase property which is later determined not to be
3 production related tangible personal property may be liable for
4 tax, penalty, and interest on the purchase of that property as
5 of the date of purchase but shall be entitled to use the
6 disallowed Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, so long as it has
7 not expired and is used prior to October 1, 2003, on qualifying
8 purchases of production related tangible personal property not
9 previously subject to credit usage. The Manufacturer's
10 Purchase Credit earned by a manufacturer or graphic arts
11 producer expires the last day of the second calendar year
12 following the calendar year in which the credit arose. No
13 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used after September 30,
14 2003 regardless of when that credit was earned.
15     A purchaser earning Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall
16 sign and file an annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase
17 Credit Earned for each calendar year no later than the last day
18 of the sixth month following the calendar year in which a

21 as prescribed or approved by the Department and shall state,
22 for each month of the calendar year: (i) the total purchase
23 price of all purchases of exempt manufacturing or graphic arts

30 maintain records which identify, as to each purchase of
31 manufacturing or graphic arts machinery and equipment on which
32 the purchaser earned Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, the
33 vendor (including, if applicable, either the vendor's

19 personal property on which the purchaser used Manufacturer's
20 Purchase Credit, the vendor (including, if applicable, either
21 the vendor's registration number or Federal Employer
22 Identification Number), the purchase price, and the amount of
23 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit used on each purchase.

26 of Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Earned or an annual Report of
27 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used by the last day of the
28 sixth month following the end of the calendar year shall
29 forfeit all Manufacturer's Purchase Credit for that calendar
30 year unless it establishes that its failure to file was due to
31 reasonable cause. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit reports may
32 be amended to report and claim credit on qualifying purchases
33 not previously reported at any time before the credit would
34 have expired, unless both the Department and the purchaser have

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 32 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 agreed to an extension of the statute of limitations for the
2 issuance of a notice of tax liability as provided in Section 4
3 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the time for
4 assessment or refund has been extended, then amended reports
5 for a calendar year may be filed at any time prior to the date
6 to which the statute of limitations for the calendar year or
7 portion thereof has been extended. No Manufacturer's Purchase
8 Credit report filed with the Department for periods prior to
9 January 1, 1995 shall be approved. Manufacturer's Purchase
10 Credit claimed on an amended report may be used, until October
11 1, 2003, to satisfy tax liability under the Use Tax Act or the
12 Service Use Tax Act (i) on qualifying purchases of production
13 related tangible personal property made after the date the
14 amended report is filed or (ii) assessed by the Department on
15 qualifying purchases of production related tangible personal
16 property made in the case of manufacturers on or after January
17 1, 1995, or in the case of graphic arts producers on or after
18 July 1, 1996.
19     If the purchaser is not the manufacturer or a graphic arts
20 producer, but rents or leases the use of the property to a
21 manufacturer or graphic arts producer, the purchaser may earn,
22 report, and use Manufacturer's Purchase Credit in the same
23 manner as a manufacturer or graphic arts producer.
24     A purchaser shall not be entitled to any Manufacturer's
25 Purchase Credit for a purchase that is required to be reported
26 and is not timely reported as provided in this Section. A
27 purchaser remains liable for (i) any tax that was satisfied by
28 use of a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, as of the date of
29 purchase, if that use is not timely reported as required in
30 this Section and (ii) for any applicable penalties and interest
31 for failing to pay the tax when due. No Manufacturer's Purchase
32 Credit may be used after September 30, 2003 to satisfy any tax
33 liability imposed under this Act, including any audit
34 liability.

1     (b) Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned on and after
2 September 1, 2004. This subsection (b) applies to
3 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned on and after September 1,
4 2004. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned on or after
5 September 1, 2004 may only be used to satisfy the Use Tax or
6 Service Use Tax liability incurred on production related
7 tangible personal property purchased on or after September 1,
8 2004. A purchaser of production related tangible personal
9 property desiring to use the Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
10 shall certify to the seller that the purchaser is satisfying
11 all or part of the liability under the Use Tax Act or the
12 Service Use Tax Act that is due on the purchase of the
13 production related tangible personal property by use of
14 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit. The Manufacturer's Purchase
15 Credit certification must be dated and shall include the name
16 and address of the purchaser, the purchaser's registration
17 number, if registered, the credit being applied, and a
18 statement that the State Use Tax or Service Use Tax liability
19 is being satisfied with the manufacturer's or graphic arts
20 producer's accumulated purchase credit. Certification may be
21 incorporated into the manufacturer's or graphic arts
22 producer's purchase order. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
23 certification provided by the manufacturer or graphic arts
24 producer may be used to satisfy the retailer's or serviceman's
25 liability under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or Service
26 Occupation Tax Act for the credit claimed, not to exceed 6.25%
27 of the receipts subject to tax from a qualifying purchase, but
28 only if the retailer or serviceman reports the Manufacturer's
29 Purchase Credit claimed as required by the Department. The
30 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned by purchase of exempt
31 manufacturing machinery and equipment or graphic arts
32 machinery and equipment is a non-transferable credit. A
33 manufacturer or graphic arts producer that enters into a
34 contract involving the installation of tangible personal

8 written contract authorizing the contractor to utilize a
9 specified dollar amount of credit. The contractor shall furnish
10 the supplier with the manufacturer's or graphic arts producer's

14 with the credit. The manufacturer or graphic arts producer
15 shall remain liable to timely report all information required
16 by the annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used for
17 all credit utilized by a construction contractor.
18     The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used to satisfy

20 on the purchase, made on or after September 1, 2004, of
21 production related tangible personal property (including
22 purchases by a manufacturer, by a graphic arts producer, or by
23 a lessor who rents or leases the use of the property to a

7 defined in Section 3-30 of the Service Occupation Tax Act.
8 Beginning July 1, 1996, all references in this Section to
9 manufacturers or manufacturing shall also refer to graphic arts
10 producers or graphic arts production.
11     The amount of credit shall be a percentage of the tax that

20 qualify for the credit without regard to whether the serviceman
21 elected, or could have elected, under paragraph (7) of Section
22 2 of this Act to exclude the transaction from this Act. If the
23 serviceman's billing to the service customer separately states
24 a selling price for the exempt manufacturing machinery or
25 equipment or the exempt graphic arts machinery and equipment,
26 the credit shall be calculated, as otherwise provided herein,
27 based on that selling price. If the serviceman's billing does
28 not separately state a selling price for the exempt
29 manufacturing machinery and equipment or the exempt graphic
30 arts machinery and equipment, the credit shall be calculated,
31 as otherwise provided herein, based on 50% of the entire
32 billing. If the serviceman contracts to design, develop, and

6     The percentage shall be as follows:
7         (1) 15% for purchases made on or before June 30, 1995.

19 or part of the liability under the Use Tax Act or the Service

3 Purchase Credit claimed as required by the Department. A
4 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit reported on any original or

6 shall be disallowed. The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned
7 by purchase of exempt manufacturing machinery and equipment or
8 graphic arts machinery and equipment is a non-transferable
9 credit. A manufacturer or graphic arts producer that enters
10 into a contract involving the installation of tangible personal

12 arts production facility, prior to October 1, 2003, may
13 authorize a construction contractor to utilize credit
14 accumulated by the manufacturer or graphic arts producer to
15 purchase the tangible personal property. A manufacturer or
16 graphic arts producer intending to use accumulated credit to
17 purchase such tangible personal property shall execute a
18 written contract authorizing the contractor to utilize a
19 specified dollar amount of credit. The contractor shall
20 furnish, prior to October 1, 2003, the supplier with the
21 manufacturer's or graphic arts producer's name, registration
22 or resale number, and a statement that a specific amount of the

1 lessor who rents or leases the use of the property to a
2 manufacturer or graphic arts producer) that does not otherwise
3 qualify for the manufacturing machinery and equipment
4 exemption or the graphic arts machinery and equipment

7 the purchaser in a manufacturing facility in which a
8 manufacturing process described in Section 2-45 of the
9 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act takes place, including tangible
10 personal property purchased for incorporation into real estate
11 within a manufacturing facility and including, but not limited
12 to, tangible personal property used or consumed in activities
13 such as pre-production material handling, receiving, quality
14 control, inventory control, storage, staging, and packaging
15 for shipping and transportation purposes; (ii) all tangible

2 Purchase Credit may be used, prior to October 1, 2003, to
3 satisfy the tax arising either from the purchase of machinery
4 and equipment on or after January 1, 1995 for which the
5 manufacturing machinery and equipment exemption provided by
6 Section 2 of this Act was erroneously claimed, or the purchase
7 of machinery and equipment on or after July 1, 1996 for which
8 the exemption provided by paragraph (5) of Section 3-5 of this
9 Act was erroneously claimed, but not in satisfaction of
10 penalty, if any, and interest for failure to pay the tax when
11 due. A purchaser of production related tangible personal
12 property who is required to pay Illinois Use Tax or Service Use
13 Tax on the purchase directly to the Department may, prior to
14 October 1, 2003, utilize the Manufacturer's Purchase Credit in
15 satisfaction of the tax arising from that purchase, but not in
16 satisfaction of penalty and interest. A purchaser who uses the
17 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit to purchase property which is
18 later determined not to be production related tangible personal
19 property may be liable for tax, penalty, and interest on the
20 purchase of that property as of the date of purchase but shall
21 be entitled to use the disallowed Manufacturer's Purchase
22 Credit, so long as it has not expired and is used prior to
23 October 1, 2003, on qualifying purchases of production related
24 tangible personal property not previously subject to credit
25 usage. The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned by a
26 manufacturer or graphic arts producer expires the last day of
27 the second calendar year following the calendar year in which
28 the credit arose. No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used
29 after September 30, 2003 regardless of when that credit was
30 earned.
31     A purchaser earning Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall
32 sign and file an annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase
33 Credit Earned for each calendar year no later than the last day
34 of the sixth month following the calendar year in which a

1 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit is earned. A Report of
2 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Earned shall be filed on forms
3 as prescribed or approved by the Department and shall state,
4 for each month of the calendar year: (i) the total purchase
5 price of all purchases of exempt manufacturing or graphic arts

13 manufacturing or graphic arts machinery and equipment on which
14 the purchaser earned Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, the
15 vendor (including, if applicable, either the vendor's

17 Number), the purchase price, and the amount of Manufacturer's
18 Purchase Credit earned on each purchase.
19     A purchaser using Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall
20 sign and file an annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase
21 Credit Used for each calendar year no later than the last day
22 of the sixth month following the calendar year in which a
23 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit is used. A Report of

25 prescribed or approved by the Department and shall state, for
26 each month of the calendar year: (i) the total purchase price
27 of production related tangible personal property purchased

29 production related tangible personal property purchased from
30 out-of-state suppliers; (iii) the total amount of credit used

32 Department may reasonably require. A purchaser using
33 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall maintain records that
34 identify, as to each purchase of production related tangible

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 54 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 personal property on which the purchaser used Manufacturer's
2 Purchase Credit, the vendor (including, if applicable, either
3 the vendor's registration number or Federal Employer

5 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit used on each purchase.
6     No annual report shall be filed before May 1, 1996 or after
7 June 30, 2004. A purchaser that fails to file an annual Report
8 of Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Earned or an annual Report of
9 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used by the last day of the
10 sixth month following the end of the calendar year shall
11 forfeit all Manufacturer's Purchase Credit for that calendar
12 year unless it establishes that its failure to file was due to
13 reasonable cause. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit reports may
14 be amended to report and claim credit on qualifying purchases
15 not previously reported at any time before the credit would
16 have expired, unless both the Department and the purchaser have
17 agreed to an extension of the statute of limitations for the
18 issuance of a notice of tax liability as provided in Section 4
19 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the time for
20 assessment or refund has been extended, then amended reports
21 for a calendar year may be filed at any time prior to the date
22 to which the statute of limitations for the calendar year or
23 portion thereof has been extended. No Manufacturer's Purchase
24 Credit report filed with the Department for periods prior to
25 January 1, 1995 shall be approved. Manufacturer's Purchase
26 Credit claimed on an amended report may be used, prior to
27 October 1, 2003, to satisfy tax liability under the Use Tax Act
28 or the Service Use Tax Act (i) on qualifying purchases of

1     If the purchaser is not the manufacturer or a graphic arts
2 producer, but rents or leases the use of the property to a
3 manufacturer or a graphic arts producer, the purchaser may
4 earn, report, and use Manufacturer's Purchase Credit in the
5 same manner as a manufacturer or graphic arts producer.
6     A purchaser shall not be entitled to any Manufacturer's
7 Purchase Credit for a purchase that is required to be reported
8 and is not timely reported as provided in this Section. A
9 purchaser remains liable for (i) any tax that was satisfied by
10 use of a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, as of the date of
11 purchase, if that use is not timely reported as required in
12 this Section and (ii) for any applicable penalties and interest
13 for failing to pay the tax when due. No Manufacturer's Purchase
14 Credit may be used after September 30, 2003 to satisfy any tax
15 liability imposed under this Act, including any audit

19 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned on or after September 1,
20 2004. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned on or after
21 September 1, 2004 may only be used to satisfy the Use Tax or
22 Service Use Tax liability incurred on production related
23 tangible personal property purchased on or after September 1,
24 2004. A purchaser of production related tangible personal

1 is being satisfied with the manufacturer's or graphic arts
2 producer's accumulated purchase credit. Certification may be
3 incorporated into the manufacturer's or graphic arts
4 producer's purchase order. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
5 certification provided by the manufacturer or graphic arts
6 producer may be used to satisfy the retailer's or serviceman's
7 liability under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act or Service
8 Occupation Tax Act for the credit claimed, not to exceed 6.25%
9 of the receipts subject to tax from a qualifying purchase, but
10 only if the retailer or serviceman reports the Manufacturer's
11 Purchase Credit claimed as required by the Department. The
12 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned by purchase of exempt
13 manufacturing machinery and equipment or graphic arts
14 machinery and equipment is a non-transferable credit. A
15 manufacturer or graphic arts producer that enters into a
16 contract involving the installation of tangible personal
17 property into real estate within a manufacturing or graphic
18 arts production facility may, on or after September 1, 2004,
19 authorize a construction contractor to utilize credit
20 accumulated by the manufacturer or graphic arts producer to
21 purchase the tangible personal property. A manufacturer or
22 graphic arts producer intending to use accumulated credit to
23 purchase such tangible personal property shall execute a
24 written contract authorizing the contractor to utilize a
25 specified dollar amount of credit. The contractor shall furnish
26 the supplier with the manufacturer's or graphic arts producer's
27 name, registration or resale number, and a statement that a
28 specific amount of the Use Tax or Service Use Tax liability,
29 not to exceed 6.25% of the selling price, is being satisfied
30 with the credit. The manufacturer or graphic arts producer
31 shall remain liable to timely report all information required
32 by the annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used for
33 credit utilized by a construction contractor.
34     The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used to satisfy

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 57 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 liability under the Use Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act due
2 on the purchase, made on or after September 1, 2004, of
3 production related tangible personal property (including
4 purchases by a manufacturer, by a graphic arts producer, or a
5 lessor who rents or leases the use of the property to a
6 manufacturer or graphic arts producer) that does not otherwise
7 qualify for the manufacturing machinery and equipment
8 exemption or the graphic arts machinery and equipment
9 exemption. "Production related tangible personal property"
10 means (i) all tangible personal property used or consumed by
11 the purchaser in a manufacturing facility in which a
12 manufacturing process described in Section 2-45 of the
13 Retailers' Occupation Tax Act takes place, including tangible
14 personal property purchased for incorporation into real estate
15 within a manufacturing facility and including, but not limited
16 to, tangible personal property used or consumed in activities
17 such as pre-production material handling, receiving, quality
18 control, inventory control, storage, staging, and packaging
19 for shipping and transportation purposes; (ii) all tangible
20 personal property used or consumed by the purchaser in a
21 graphic arts facility in which graphic arts production as
22 described in Section 2-30 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act
23 takes place, including tangible personal property purchased
24 for incorporation into real estate within a graphic arts
25 facility and including, but not limited to, all tangible
26 personal property used or consumed in activities such as
27 graphic arts preliminary or pre-press production,
28 pre-production material handling, receiving, quality control,
29 inventory control, storage, staging, sorting, labeling,
30 mailing, tying, wrapping, and packaging; and (iii) all tangible
31 personal property used or consumed by the purchaser for
32 research and development. "Production related tangible
33 personal property" does not include (i) tangible personal
34 property used, within or without a manufacturing or graphic

1 arts facility, in sales, purchasing, accounting, fiscal
2 management, marketing, personnel recruitment or selection, or
3 landscaping or (ii) tangible personal property required to be
4 titled or registered with a department, agency, or unit of
5 federal, state, or local government. The Manufacturer's
6 Purchase Credit may be used to satisfy the tax arising either
7 from the purchase of machinery and equipment on or after
8 September 1, 2004 for which the manufacturing machinery and
9 equipment exemption provided by Section 2 of this Act was
10 erroneously claimed, or the purchase of machinery and equipment
11 on or after September 1, 2004 for which the exemption provided
12 by paragraph (5) of Section 3-5 of this Act was erroneously
13 claimed, but not in satisfaction of penalty, if any, and
14 interest for failure to pay the tax when due. A purchaser of
15 production related tangible personal property that is
16 purchased on or after September 1, 2004 who is required to pay
17 Illinois Use Tax or Service Use Tax on the purchase directly to
18 the Department may utilize the Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
19 in satisfaction of the tax arising from that purchase, but not
20 in satisfaction of penalty and interest. A purchaser who uses
21 the Manufacturer's Purchase Credit to purchase property on and
22 after September 1, 2004 which is later determined not to be
23 production related tangible personal property may be liable for
24 tax, penalty, and interest on the purchase of that property as
25 of the date of purchase but shall be entitled to use the
26 disallowed Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, so long as it has
27 not expired, on qualifying purchases of production related
28 tangible personal property not previously subject to credit
29 usage. The Manufacturer's Purchase Credit earned by a
30 manufacturer or graphic arts producer expires the last day of
31 the second calendar year following the calendar year in which
32 the credit arose.
33     A purchaser earning Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall

1 Credit Earned for each calendar year no later than the last day
2 of the sixth month following the calendar year in which a
3 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit is earned. A Report of
4 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Earned shall be filed on forms
5 as prescribed or approved by the Department and shall state,
6 for each month of the calendar year: (i) the total purchase
7 price of all purchases of exempt manufacturing or graphic arts
8 machinery on which the credit was earned; (ii) the total State
9 Use Tax or Service Use Tax which would have been due on those
10 items; (iii) the percentage used to calculate the amount of
11 credit earned; (iv) the amount of credit earned; and (v) such
12 other information as the Department may reasonably require. A
13 purchaser earning Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall

15 manufacturing or graphic arts machinery and equipment on which
16 the purchaser earned Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, the
17 vendor (including, if applicable, either the vendor's
18 registration number or Federal Employer Identification
19 Number), the purchase price, and the amount of Manufacturer's
20 Purchase Credit earned on each purchase.
21     A purchaser using Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall
22 sign and file an annual Report of Manufacturer's Purchase
23 Credit Used for each calendar year no later than the last day
24 of the sixth month following the calendar year in which a
25 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit is used. A Report of
26 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used shall be filed on forms as
27 prescribed or approved by the Department and shall state, for
28 each month of the calendar year: (i) the total purchase price
29 of production related tangible personal property purchased
30 from Illinois suppliers; (ii) the total purchase price of
31 production related tangible personal property purchased from
32 out-of-state suppliers; (iii) the total amount of credit used
33 during such month; and (iv) such other information as the
34 Department may reasonably require. A purchaser using

1 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit shall maintain records that
2 identify, as to each purchase of production related tangible
3 personal property on which the purchaser used Manufacturer's
4 Purchase Credit, the vendor (including, if applicable, either
5 the vendor's registration number or Federal Employer
6 Identification Number), the purchase price, and the amount of
7 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit used on each purchase.
8     A purchaser that fails to file an annual Report of
9 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Earned or an annual Report of
10 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit Used by the last day of the
11 sixth month following the end of the calendar year shall
12 forfeit all Manufacturer's Purchase Credit for that calendar
13 year unless it establishes that its failure to file was due to
14 reasonable cause. Manufacturer's Purchase Credit reports may
15 be amended to report and claim credit on qualifying purchases
16 not previously reported at any time before the credit would
17 have expired, unless both the Department and the purchaser have
18 agreed to an extension of the statute of limitations for the
19 issuance of a notice of tax liability as provided in Section 4
20 of the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act. If the time for
21 assessment or refund has been extended, then amended reports
22 for a calendar year may be filed at any time prior to the date
23 to which the statute of limitations for the calendar year or
24 portion thereof has been extended. Manufacturer's Purchase
25 Credit claimed on an amended report may be used to satisfy tax
26 liability under the Use Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act (i)
27 on qualifying purchases of production related tangible
28 personal property made after the date the amended report is
29 filed or (ii) assessed by the Department on qualifying
30 production related tangible personal property purchased on or
31 after September 1, 2004.
32     If the purchaser is not the manufacturer or a graphic arts
33 producer, but rents or leases the use of the property to a
34 manufacturer or a graphic arts producer, the purchaser may

1 earn, report, and use Manufacturer's Purchase Credit in the
2 same manner as a manufacturer or graphic arts producer. A
3 purchaser shall not be entitled to any Manufacturer's Purchase
4 Credit for a purchase that is required to be reported and is
5 not timely reported as provided in this Section. A purchaser
6 remains liable for (i) any tax that was satisfied by use of a
7 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit, as of the date of purchase, if
8 that use is not timely reported as required in this Section and
9 (ii) for any applicable penalties and interest for failing to
10 pay the tax when due.

5     Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect
6 the tax herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount
7 of such tax at the time when he is required to file his return
8 for the period during which such tax was collectible, less a
9 discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and
10 after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year, whichever is
11 greater, which is allowed to reimburse the serviceman for
12 expenses incurred in collecting the tax, keeping records,
13 preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
14 data to the Department on request.
15     Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
16 conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
17 wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
18 extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
19 filed, the serviceman, in collecting the tax may collect, for
20 each tax return period, only the tax applicable to the part of
21 the selling price actually received during such tax return
22 period.
23     Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or
24 before the twentieth day of each calendar month, such
25 serviceman shall file a return for the preceding calendar month
26 in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
27 promulgated by the Department of Revenue. Such return shall be
28 filed on a form prescribed by the Department and shall contain
29 such information as the Department may reasonably require.
30     The Department may require returns to be filed on a
31 quarterly basis. If so required, a return for each calendar

2 of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or before
3 the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating:
4         1. The name of the seller;
5         2. The address of the principal place of business from
6     which he engages in business as a serviceman in this State;
7         3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by him
8     during the preceding calendar month, including receipts
9     from charge and time sales, but less all deductions allowed
10     by law;
11         4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this
12     Act;
13         5. The amount of tax due;
14         5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and
15         6. Such other reasonable information as the Department
16     may require.
17     If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after
18 the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
19 the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be
20 due on the return shall be deemed assessed.
21     Prior to October 1, 2003, and on and after September 1,
22 2004 a serviceman may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
23 certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Service Use
24 Tax as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act if
25 the purchaser provides the appropriate documentation as
26 required by Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act. A
27 Manufacturer's Purchase Credit certification, accepted prior
28 to October 1, 2003 or on or after September 1, 2004 by a
29 serviceman as provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax
30 Act, may be used by that serviceman to satisfy Service
31 Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in the
32 certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to
33 tax from a qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase
34 Credit reported on any original or amended return filed under

2 September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's Purchase
3 Credit reported on annual returns due on or after January 1,
4 2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to September 1, 2004.
5 No Manufacturer's Purchase Credit may be used after September
6 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to satisfy any tax liability
7 imposed under this Act, including any audit liability.
8     If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to the
9 Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize
10 his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis, with the
11 return for January, February and March of a given year being
12 due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April, May
13 and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year; with

22     Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
23 substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
24 returns.
25     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
26 the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the
27 case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of
28 business which makes him responsible for filing returns under
29 this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this
30 Act with the Department not more than 1 month after
31 discontinuing such business.
32     Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
33 monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all
34 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic

1 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has
2 an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall make
3 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
4 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a taxpayer who has
5 an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 or more shall make
6 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
7 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 2000, a taxpayer who has
8 an annual tax liability of $200,000 or more shall make all
9 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
10 funds transfer. The term "annual tax liability" shall be the
11 sum of the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all
12 other State and local occupation and use tax laws administered
13 by the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year.
14 The term "average monthly tax liability" means the sum of the
15 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other
16 State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by the
17 Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year
18 divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has
19 a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b) of
20 Section 2505-210 of the Department of Revenue Law shall make
21 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
22 funds transfer.
23     Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the
24 Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make payments
25 by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required to make
26 payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those payments
27 for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1.
28     Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
29 funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
30 with the permission of the Department.
31     All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds
32 transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make
33 payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those payments
34 in the manner authorized by the Department.

1     The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
2 effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the
3 requirements of this Section.
4     Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the
5 selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
6 the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
7 property and the serviceman refunds the selling price thereof
8 to the purchaser, such serviceman shall also refund, to the
9 purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When filing
10 his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
11 purchaser, the serviceman may deduct the amount of the tax so
12 refunded by him to the purchaser from any other Service
13 Occupation Tax, Service Use Tax, Retailers' Occupation Tax or
14 Use Tax which such serviceman may be required to pay or remit
15 to the Department, as shown by such return, provided that the
16 amount of the tax to be deducted shall previously have been
17 remitted to the Department by such serviceman. If the
18 serviceman shall not previously have remitted the amount of
19 such tax to the Department, he shall be entitled to no
20 deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to the purchaser.
21     If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
22 Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
23 return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file
24 returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
25 Act, the Use Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, to furnish all
26 the return information required by all said Acts on the one
27 form.
28     Where the serviceman has more than one business registered
29 with the Department under separate registrations hereunder,
30 such serviceman shall file separate returns for each registered
31 business.
32     Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
33 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund the revenue realized for
34 the preceding month from the 1% tax on sales of food for human

14 rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.
15     Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
16 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the revenue
17 realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on
18 transfers of tangible personal property.
19     Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall
20 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue
21 realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the

25 Build Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on
26 and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the
27 Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in any fiscal

18 event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso
19 result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund
20 pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of
21 the greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual
22 Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and, further provided,
23 that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund under

7 Retirement and Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the
8 Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to such deficiency
9 shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the
10 Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois Fund;
11 provided, however, that any amounts paid to the Build Illinois
12 Fund in any fiscal year pursuant to this sentence shall be
13 deemed to constitute payments pursuant to clause (b) of the
14 preceding sentence and shall reduce the amount otherwise
15 payable for such fiscal year pursuant to clause (b) of the
16 preceding sentence. The moneys received by the Department
17 pursuant to this Act and required to be deposited into the

2     the annual return for each month or fraction of a month
3     until such return is filed as required, the penalty to be
4     assessed and collected in the same manner as any other
5     penalty provided for in this Act.
6         (ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall
7     be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the
8     Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
9     The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
10 ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the

12 willfully signs the annual return containing false or
13 inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished
14 accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the
15 Department shall include a warning that the person signing the
16 return may be liable for perjury.

1 whom it was sold or distributed; the purchaser's tax
2 registration number; and such other information reasonably
3 required by the Department. A copy of the monthly statement
4 shall be sent to the retailer no later than the 10th day of the
5 month for the preceding month during which transactions
6 occurred.
7     If a total amount of less than $1 is payable, refundable or
8 creditable, such amount shall be disregarded if it is less than
9 50 cents and shall be increased to $1 if it is 50 cents or more.
10     Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average
11 monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall make all
12 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
13 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer who has
14 an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall make
15 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
16 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1995, a taxpayer who has
17 an average monthly tax liability of $50,000 or more shall make
18 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
19 funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 2000, a taxpayer who has
20 an annual tax liability of $200,000 or more shall make all
21 payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
22 funds transfer. The term "annual tax liability" shall be the
23 sum of the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all
24 other State and local occupation and use tax laws administered
25 by the Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year.
26 The term "average monthly tax liability" shall be the sum of
27 the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other
28 State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by the
29 Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year
30 divided by 12. Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has
31 a tax liability in the amount set forth in subsection (b) of
32 Section 2505-210 of the Department of Revenue Law shall make
33 all payments required by rules of the Department by electronic
34 funds transfer.

1     Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the
2 Department shall notify all taxpayers required to make payments
3 by electronic funds transfer. All taxpayers required to make
4 payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those payments
5 for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1.
6     Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic
7 funds transfer may make payments by electronic funds transfer
8 with the permission of the Department.
9     All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds
10 transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make
11 payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those payments
12 in the manner authorized by the Department.
13     The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
14 effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the
15 requirements of this Section.
16     Any amount which is required to be shown or reported on any
17 return or other document under this Act shall, if such amount
18 is not a whole-dollar amount, be increased to the nearest
19 whole-dollar amount in any case where the fractional part of a
20 dollar is 50 cents or more, and decreased to the nearest
21 whole-dollar amount where the fractional part of a dollar is
22 less than 50 cents.
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 year
28 being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April,
29 May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year;
30 with the return for July, August and September of a given year
31 being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for
32 October, November and December of a given year being due by
33 January 20 of the following year.
34     If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 97 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
2 liability with 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 20
5 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 monthly
8 returns.
9     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
10 the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
11 case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
12 which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
13 such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
14 Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
15 business.
16     Where the same person has more than one business registered
17 with the Department under separate registrations under this
18 Act, such person may not file each return that is due as a
19 single return covering all such registered businesses, but
20 shall file separate returns for each such registered business.
21     In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
22 aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
23 an agency of this State, every retailer selling this kind of
24 tangible personal property shall file, with the Department,
25 upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the Department, a
26 separate return for each such item of tangible personal
27 property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
28 transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor
29 vehicles or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
30 watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,
31 watercraft, motor vehicle retailer or trailer retailer for the
32 purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft,
33 motor vehicles, or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
34 watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 98 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 2-5 of this
2 Act, then that seller may report the transfer of all aircraft,
3 watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers involved in that
4 transaction to the Department on the same uniform
5 invoice-transaction reporting return form. For purposes of
6 this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4
7 watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration
8 and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped
9 with an inboard motor.
10     Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft,
11 aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with
12 an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax
13 liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such
14 transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise required
15 to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or
16 quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall be required
17 to file returns on an annual basis.
18     The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor
19 vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with an
20 agency of this State, shall be the same document as the Uniform
21 Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle
22 Code and must show the name and address of the seller; the name
23 and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling price
24 including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
25 property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the
26 traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to
27 which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
28 of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
29 trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
30 tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
31 amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
32 such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
33 due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
34 fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 99 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 identification of the property sold; such other information as
2 is required in Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle Code, and
3 such other information as the Department may reasonably
4 require.
5     The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
6 or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
7 name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
8 price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
9 traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
10 for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
11 extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for
12 the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
13 deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
14 the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
15 transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
16 the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that
17 such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
18 claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a
19 sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
20 information as the Department may reasonably require.
21     Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
22 than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
23 being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
24 than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
25 return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
26 Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
27 the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
28 tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
29 titling or registration is required) if the Department and such
30 agency or State officer determine that this procedure will
31 expedite the processing of applications for title or
32 registration.
33     With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
34 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 100 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
2 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
3 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
4 receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
5 satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
6 purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State officer
7 with whom, he must title or register the tangible personal
8 property that is involved (if titling or registration is
9 required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
10 Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or registration
11 to such tangible personal property.
12     No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
13 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
14 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
15 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
16 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
17 paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
18 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
19 mandate of this paragraph.
20     If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
21 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
22 the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
23 retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
24 paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
25 of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
26 being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
27 the information required by the transaction reporting return
28 and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
29 the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
30 determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
31 and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
32 credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
33 with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
34 provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 101 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
2 same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
3 if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
4     Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
5 period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
6 returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
7 subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
8 may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
9 receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
10 return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
11 with respect to such receipts.
12     Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
13 behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
14 vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
15 accredited agent of such corporation.
16     Where the seller is a limited liability company, the return
17 filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall be
18 signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent of
19 the limited liability company.
20     Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing the
21 return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
22 return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
23 Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
24 on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
25 whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
26 retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
27 preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
28 data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made pursuant
29 to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on
30 which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of
31 retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by
32 transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount
33 shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when
34 such retailer files his periodic return.

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

1 the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
2 or after January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each
3 payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
4 actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
5 liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
6 the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
7 or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
8 begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
9 amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
10 the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
11 calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
12 such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
13 1989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
14 amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
15 the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
16 calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
17 actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
18 amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
19 against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
20 that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
21 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
22 Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability
23 of $10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
24 shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
25 to the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
26 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
27 month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
28 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
29 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
30 calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
31 taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
32 the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
33 to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
34 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 104 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

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

1 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
2 quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
3 is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
4 prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
5 excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
6 calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
7 required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
8 Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
9 month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
10 during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to the
11 effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985, each payment
12 shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the taxpayer's
13 actual liability under Section 2d. If the month during which
14 such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
15 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
16 taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the
17 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
18 preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax
19 liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each
20 payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
21 actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
22 liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year.
23 The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
24 against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
25 that month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case
26 may be. Once applicable, the requirement of the making of
27 quarter monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this
28 paragraph shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly
29 prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2 complete
30 calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter
31 monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
32 required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
33 interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has
34 previously made payments for that month in excess of the

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 106 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 minimum payments previously due.
2     The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October
3 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
4 make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
5 who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
6 prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that average in
7 excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete
8 calendar quarters shall file a return with the Department as
9 required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
10 Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
11 month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
12 shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
13 liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
14 the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of
15 the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
16 final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
17 filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
18 Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
19 monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
20 shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
21 collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
22 (excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
23 lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
24 average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
25 each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
26 quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly
27 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
28 taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
29 difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
30 payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
31 previously due.
32     If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
33 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
34 Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 107 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
2 requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
3 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
4 credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
5 the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
6 Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
7 in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
8 prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
9 taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
10 subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
11 the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
12 Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
13 regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
14 subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
15 taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
16 and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
17 of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
18 due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
19 interest on such difference.
20     If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
21 Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
22 to the Department under this Act for the month which the
23 taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
24 taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
25     Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
26 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the
27 State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue
28 realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax on sales of
29 food for human consumption which is to be consumed off the
30 premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft
31 drinks and food which has been prepared for immediate
32 consumption) and prescription and nonprescription medicines,

22 information return for the tax year specified in the notice.
23 Such annual return to the Department shall include a statement

25 income tax return. If the total receipts of the business as
26 reported in the Federal income tax return do not agree with the
27 gross receipts reported to the Department of Revenue for the
28 same period, the retailer shall attach to his annual return a
29 schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2 amounts and the
30 reasons for the difference. The retailer's annual return to the
31 Department shall also disclose the cost of goods sold by the
32 retailer during the year covered by such return, opening and
33 closing inventories of such goods for such year, costs of goods
34 used from stock or taken from stock and given away by the

1 retailer during such year, payroll information of the
2 retailer's business during such year and any additional
3 reasonable information which the Department deems would be
4 helpful in determining the accuracy of the monthly, quarterly
5 or annual returns filed by such retailer as provided for in
6 this Section.
7     If the annual information return required by this Section
8 is not filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be liable
9 as follows:
10         (i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be liable
11     for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due from such
12     taxpayer under this Act during the period to be covered by
13     the annual return for each month or fraction of a month
14     until such return is filed as required, the penalty to be
15     assessed and collected in the same manner as any other
16     penalty provided for in this Act.
17         (ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall
18     be liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the
19     Uniform Penalty and Interest Act.
20     The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest
21 ranking manager shall sign the annual return to certify the
22 accuracy of the information contained therein. Any person who
23 willfully signs the annual return containing false or
24 inaccurate information shall be guilty of perjury and punished
25 accordingly. The annual return form prescribed by the
26 Department shall include a warning that the person signing the
27 return may be liable for perjury.
28     The provisions of this Section concerning the filing of an
29 annual information return do not apply to a retailer who is not
30 required to file an income tax return with the United States
31 Government.
32     As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon
33 certification of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller
34 shall order transferred and the Treasurer shall transfer from

2 equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized under this Act
3 for the second preceding month. Beginning April 1, 2000, this
4 transfer is no longer required and shall not be made.
5     Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue
6 collected by the State pursuant to this Act, less the amount
7 paid out during that month as refunds to taxpayers for
8 overpayment of liability.
9     For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers,
10 importers and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail in
11 Illinois by numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may
12 assume the responsibility for accounting and paying to the
13 Department all tax accruing under this Act with respect to such
14 sales, if the retailers who are affected do not make written
15 objection to the Department to this arrangement.
16     Any person who promotes, organizes, provides retail
17 selling space for concessionaires or other types of sellers at
18 the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin State Fair, county fairs,
19 local fairs, art shows, flea markets and similar exhibitions or
20 events, including any transient merchant as defined by Section
21 2 of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required to file a
22 report with the Department providing the name of the merchant's
23 business, the name of the person or persons engaged in
24 merchant's business, the permanent address and Illinois
25 Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the merchant,

27 information that the Department may require. The report must be
28 filed not later than the 20th day of the month next following
29 the month during which the event with retail sales was held.
30 Any person who fails to file a report required by this Section
31 commits a business offense and is subject to a fine not to
32 exceed $250.
33     Any person engaged in the business of selling tangible
34 personal property at retail as a concessionaire or other type

2 flea markets and similar exhibitions or events, or any
3 transient merchants, as defined by Section 2 of the Transient
4 Merchant Act of 1987, may be required to make a daily report of
5 the amount of such sales to the Department and to make a daily
6 payment of the full amount of tax due. The Department shall
7 impose this requirement when it finds that there is a
8 significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an
9 exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on evidence
10 that a substantial number of concessionaires or other sellers
11 who are not residents of Illinois will be engaging in the
12 business of selling tangible personal property at retail at the
13 exhibition or event, or other evidence of a significant risk of
14 loss of revenue to the State. The Department shall notify
15 concessionaires and other sellers affected by the imposition of
16 this requirement. In the absence of notification by the
17 Department, the concessionaires and other sellers shall file
18 their returns as otherwise required in this Section.

27         December 31, 2004, an amount equal to the amount of
28         intangible expenses and costs otherwise allowed as a
29         deduction in computing base income, and that were paid,
30         accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, to a
31         foreign person who would be a member of the same

1         activity. The addition modification required by this
2         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
3         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
4         group for the same taxable year and received by the
5         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
6         business group (including amounts included in gross
7         income under Sections 951 through 964 of the Internal
8         Revenue Code and amounts included in gross income under
9         Section 78 of the Internal Revenue Code) with respect
10         to the stock of the same person to whom the intangible
11         expenses and costs were directly or indirectly paid,
12         incurred, or accrued. The preceding sentence does not
13         apply to the extent that the same dividends caused a
14         reduction to the addition modification required under
15         Section 203(a)(2)(D-17) of this Act. As used in this
16         subparagraph, the term "intangible expenses and costs"
17         includes (1) expenses, losses, and costs for, or
18         related to, the direct or indirect acquisition, use,
19         maintenance or management, ownership, sale, exchange,
20         or any other disposition of intangible property; (2)
21         losses incurred, directly or indirectly, from
22         factoring transactions or discounting transactions;
23         (3) royalty, patent, technical, and copyright fees;
24         (4) licensing fees; and (5) other similar expenses and
25         costs. For purposes of this subparagraph, "intangible
26         property" includes patents, patent applications, trade
27         names, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, mask
28         works, trade secrets, and similar types of intangible
29         assets.
30             This paragraph shall not apply to the following:
31                 (i) any item of intangible expenses or costs
32             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
33             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign

2             unitary reporting, to a tax on or measured by net
3             income with respect to such item; or
4                 (ii) any item of intangible expense or cost
5             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
6             indirectly, if the taxpayer can establish, based
7             on a preponderance of the evidence, both of the
8             following:
9                     (a) the foreign person during the same
10                 taxable year paid, accrued, or incurred, the
11                 intangible expense or cost to a person that is
12                 not a related member, and
13                     (b) the transaction giving rise to the
14                 intangible expense or cost between the
15                 taxpayer and the foreign person did not have as
16                 a principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
17                 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
18                 or agreement that reflects arms length terms;
19                 or
20                 (iii) any item of intangible expense or cost
21             paid, accrued, or incurred, directly or
22             indirectly, from a transaction with a foreign
23             person if the taxpayer establishes by clear and
24             convincing evidence, that the adjustments are
25             unreasonable; or if the taxpayer and the Director
26             agree in writing to the application or use of an
27             alternative method of apportionment under section
28             304(f);
29                 Nothing in this subsection shall preclude the
30             Director from making any other adjustment
31             otherwise allowed under Section 404 of this Act for
32             any tax year beginning after the effective date of
33             this amendment provided such adjustment is made

22             alternative method of apportionment under Section
23             304(f).

5         unitary business group but for the fact that the
6         foreign person's business activity outside the United
7         States is 80% or more of that person's total business
8         activity. The addition modification required by this
9         subparagraph shall be reduced to the extent that
10         dividends were included in base income of the unitary
11         group for the same taxable year and received by the
12         taxpayer or by a member of the taxpayer's unitary
13         business group (including amounts included in gross

18         the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
19         indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
20         sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same
21         dividends caused a reduction to the addition

23         this Act. As used in this subparagraph, the term
24         "intangible expenses and costs" includes (1) expenses,

21                 intangible expense or cost between the
22                 taxpayer and the foreign person did not have as
23                 a principal purpose the avoidance of Illinois
24                 income tax, and is paid pursuant to a contract
25                 or agreement that reflects arms length terms;
26                 or

16         the intangible expenses and costs were directly or
17         indirectly paid, incurred, or accrued. The preceding
18         sentence shall not apply to the extent that the same

3             not federal or Illinois tax avoidance; or
4                 (iv) an item of interest paid, accrued, or

29         more of that person's total business activity. The
30         addition modification required by this subparagraph
31         shall be reduced to the extent that dividends were

27             accrued, or incurred, directly or indirectly, from
28             a transaction with a foreign person who is subject
29             in a foreign country or state, other than a state

3     all expenses, without limitation, deducted in such later
4     year and in the 2 immediately-preceding taxable years
5     related to that asset or business that generated the
6     non-business income shall be added back and recaptured as
7     business income in the year of the disposition of the asset
8     or business. Such amount shall be apportioned to Illinois
9     using the greater of the apportionment fraction computed
10     for the business under Section 304 of this Act for the

24             (B) The lesser of (i) the sum of the pre-August 1,
25         1969 appreciation amounts (to the extent consisting of
26         capital gain) for all property in respect of which such
27         gain was reported for federal income tax purposes for
28         the taxable year, or (ii) the net capital gain for the
29         taxable year, reduced in either case by any amount of
30         such gain included in the amount determined under
31         subsection (a) (2) (F) or (c) (2) (H).
32         (2) Pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation amount.

34         to in paragraph (1) was readily ascertainable on August

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 171 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

3         fair market value over the taxpayer's basis (for
4         determining gain) for such property on that date
5         (determined under the Internal Revenue Code as in
6         effect on that date), or (ii) the total gain realized
7         and reportable for federal income tax purposes in
8         respect of the sale, exchange or other disposition of

11         to in paragraph (1) was not readily ascertainable on
12         August 1, 1969, the pre-August 1, 1969 appreciation
13         amount for such property is that amount which bears the
14         same ratio to the total gain reported in respect of the
15         property for federal income tax purposes for the
16         taxable year, as the number of full calendar months in
17         that part of the taxpayer's holding period for the
18         property ending July 31, 1969 bears to the number of
19         full calendar months in the taxpayer's entire holding
20         period for the property.
21             (C) The Department shall prescribe such
22         regulations as may be necessary to carry out the

2         which is owned by a bank or bank holding company. For

5         acquire and hold an interest in, directly or
6         indirectly, under the provisions of the Bank Holding

12         paragraph, the term "bank" includes (i) any entity that
13         is regulated by the Comptroller of the Currency under
14         the National Bank Act, or by the Federal Reserve Board,
15         or by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and
16         (ii) any federally or State chartered bank operating as
17         a credit card bank.
18             (C) For purposes of subparagraph (A) of this
19         paragraph, the term "sales finance company" has the
20         meaning provided in the following item (i) or (ii):

26             express purpose of funding purchases of tangible
27             personal property or services by the borrower, or

29             this item (i), "customer receivable" means:
30                     (a) a retail installment contract or
31                 retail charge agreement within the meaning of
32                 the Sales Finance Agency Act, the Retail
33                 Installment Sales Act, or the Motor Vehicle
34                 Retail Installment Sales Act;

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 178 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1                     (b) an installment, charge, credit, or
2                 similar contract or agreement arising from the

7                     (c) the outstanding balance of a contract
8                 or agreement described in provisions (a) or (b)
9                 of this item (i).
10                 A customer receivable need not provide for
11             payment of interest on deferred payments. A sales
12             finance company may purchase a customer receivable
13             from, or make a loan secured by a customer
14             receivable to, the seller in the original
15             transaction or to a person who purchased the
16             customer receivable directly or indirectly from
17             that seller.
18                 (ii) A corporation meeting each of the
19             following criteria:
20                     (a) the corporation must be a member of an
21                 "affiliated group" within the meaning of
22                 Section 1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code,
23                 determined without regard to Section 1504(b)
24                 of the Internal Revenue Code;
25                     (b) more than 50% of the gross income of
26                 the corporation for the taxable year must be
27                 interest income derived from qualifying loans.
28                 A "qualifying loan" is a loan made to a member
29                 of the corporation's affiliated group that
30                 originates customer receivables (within the
31                 meaning of item (i)) or to whom customer
32                 receivables originated by a member of the
33                 affiliated group have been transferred, to the
34                 extent the average outstanding balance of

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 179 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1                 loans from that corporation to members of its
2                 affiliated group during the taxable year do not
3                 exceed the limitation amount for that
4                 corporation. The "limitation amount" for a
5                 corporation is the average outstanding
6                 balances during the taxable year of customer
7                 receivables (within the meaning of item (i))
8                 originated by all members of the affiliated
9                 group. If the average outstanding balances of
10                 the loans made by a corporation to members of
11                 its affiliated group exceed the limitation
12                 amount, the interest income of that
13                 corporation from qualifying loans shall be
14                 equal to its interest income from loans to
15                 members of its affiliated groups times a
16                 fraction equal to the limitation amount
17                 divided by the average outstanding balances of
18                 the loans made by that corporation to members
19                 of its affiliated group;
20                     (c) the total of all shareholder's equity
21                 (including, without limitation, paid-in
22                 capital on common and preferred stock and
23                 retained earnings) of the corporation plus the
24                 total of all of its loans, advances, and other
25                 obligations payable or owed to members of its
26                 affiliated group may not exceed 20% of the
27                 total assets of the corporation at any time
28                 during the tax year; and
29                     (d) more than 50% of all interest-bearing
30                 obligations of the affiliated group payable to
31                 persons outside the group determined in
32                 accordance with generally accepted accounting
33                 principles must be obligations of the
34                 corporation.

20         does not fall within the definition of a "financial
21         organization" under the Proposed Regulations issued by
22         the Department of Revenue on July 19, 1996, may
23         irrevocably elect to apply the Proposed Regulations
24         for all of those years as though the Proposed
25         Regulations had been lawfully promulgated, adopted,
26         and in effect for all of those years. For purposes of

16         (27) Unitary business group. The term "unitary
17     business group" means a group of persons related through

20     group will not include those members whose business
21     activity outside the United States is 80% or more of any
22     such member's total business activity; for purposes of this
23     paragraph and clause (a)(3)(B)(ii) of Section 304,
24     business activity within the United States shall be
25     measured by means of the factors ordinarily applicable
26     under subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), or (h) of Section 304
27     except that, in the case of members ordinarily required to
28     apportion business income by means of the 3 factor formula
29     of property, payroll and sales specified in subsection (a)
30     of Section 304, including the formula as weighted in
31     subsection (h) of Section 304, such members shall not use
32     the sales factor in the computation and the results of the
33     property and payroll factor computations of subsection (a)
34     of Section 304 shall be divided by 2 (by one if either the

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 188 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     property or payroll factor has a denominator of zero). The
2     computation required by the preceding sentence shall, in
3     each case, involve the division of the member's property,
4     payroll, or revenue miles in the United States, insurance
5     premiums on property or risk in the United States, or
6     financial organization business income from sources within
7     the United States, as the case may be, by the respective
8     worldwide figures for such items. Common ownership in the
9     case of corporations is the direct or indirect control or
10     ownership of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock
11     of the persons carrying on unitary business activity.
12     Unitary business activity can ordinarily be illustrated
13     where the activities of the members are: (1) in the same
14     general line (such as manufacturing, wholesaling,
15     retailing of tangible personal property, insurance,
16     transportation or finance); or (2) are steps in a
17     vertically structured enterprise or process (such as the
18     steps involved in the production of natural resources,
19     which might include exploration, mining, refining, and
20     marketing); and, in either instance, the members are
21     functionally integrated through the exercise of strong
22     centralized management (where, for example, authority over
23     such matters as purchasing, financing, tax compliance,
24     product line, personnel, marketing and capital investment
25     is not left to each member). In no event, however, will any
26     unitary business group include members which are
27     ordinarily required to apportion business income under
28     different subsections of Section 304 except that for tax
29     years ending on or after December 31, 1987 this prohibition
30     shall not apply to a unitary business group composed of one
31     or more taxpayers all of which apportion business income
32     pursuant to subsection (b) of Section 304, or all of which
33     apportion business income pursuant to subsection (d) of
34     Section 304, and a holding company of such single-factor

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 189 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     taxpayers (see definition of "financial organization" for
2     rule regarding holding companies of financial
3     organizations). If a unitary business group would, but for
4     the preceding sentence, include members that are
5     ordinarily required to apportion business income under
6     different subsections of Section 304, then for each
7     subsection of Section 304 for which there are two or more
8     members, there shall be a separate unitary business group
9     composed of such members. For purposes of the preceding two
10     sentences, a member is "ordinarily required to apportion
11     business income" under a particular subsection of Section
12     304 if it would be required to use the apportionment method
13     prescribed by such subsection except for the fact that it
14     derives business income solely from Illinois. As used in
15     this paragraph, the phrase "United States" means only the
16     50 states and the District of Columbia, but does not
17     include any territory or possession of the United States or
18     any area over which the United States has asserted
19     jurisdiction or claimed exclusive rights with respect to
20     the exploration for or exploitation of natural resources.
21         If the unitary business group members' accounting
22     periods differ, the common parent's accounting period or,
23     if there is no common parent, the accounting period of the
24     member that is expected to have, on a recurring basis, the
25     greatest Illinois income tax liability must be used to
26     determine whether to use the apportionment method provided
27     in subsection (a) or subsection (h) of Section 304. The
28     prohibition against membership in a unitary business group
29     for taxpayers ordinarily required to apportion income
30     under different subsections of Section 304 does not apply
31     to taxpayers required to apportion income under subsection
32     (a) and subsection (h) of Section 304. The provisions of
33     this amendatory Act of 1998 apply to tax years ending on or
34     after December 31, 1998.

1         (28) Subchapter S corporation. The term "Subchapter S
2     corporation" means a corporation for which there is in
3     effect an election under Section 1362 of the Internal
4     Revenue Code, or for which there is a federal election to
5     opt out of the provisions of the Subchapter S Revision Act
6     of 1982 and have applied instead the prior federal
7     Subchapter S rules as in effect on July 1, 1982.
8         (30) Foreign person. The term "foreign person" means
9     any person who is a nonresident alien individual and any
10     nonindividual entity, regardless of where created or
11     organized, whose business activity outside the United
12     States is 80% or more of the entity's total business
13     activity.
 
14     (b) Other definitions.
15         (1) Words denoting number, gender, and so forth, when
16     used in this Act, where not otherwise distinctly expressed
17     or manifestly incompatible with the intent thereof:
18             (A) Words importing the singular include and apply
19         to several persons, parties or things;
20             (B) Words importing the plural include the
21         singular; and
22             (C) Words importing the masculine gender include
23         the feminine as well.
24         (2) "Company" or "association" as including successors
25     and assigns. The word "company" or "association", when used
26     in reference to a corporation, shall be deemed to embrace
27     the words "successors and assigns of such company or
28     association", and in like manner as if these last-named
29     words, or words of similar import, were expressed.
30         (3) Other terms. Any term used in any Section of this
31     Act with respect to the application of, or in connection
32     with, the provisions of any other Section of this Act shall
33     have the same meaning as in such other Section.

28 Tax Shelter Voluntary Compliance Law, and references in this
29 Article to "this Law" mean this Article.
30     Section 35-5. Tax Shelter Voluntary Compliance Program.
31     (a) In general. The Department of Revenue shall establish

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 207 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 and administer a tax shelter voluntary compliance program as
2 provided in this Section for eligible taxpayers subject to tax
3 under the Illinois Income Tax Act. The tax shelter voluntary
4 compliance program shall be conducted from October 15, 2004 to
5 January 31, 2005 and shall apply to tax liabilities under
6 Section 201 of the Illinois Income Tax Act attributable to the
7 use of tax avoidance transactions for taxable years beginning
8 before January 1, 2004. The Department shall adopt rules, issue
9 forms and instructions, and take such other actions as it deems
10 necessary to implement the provisions of this Law. Any
11 correspondence mailed by the Department to a taxpayer at the
12 taxpayer's last known address outlining the tax shelter
13 voluntary compliance program constitutes a "contact" within
14 the meaning of Sections 1005(b)(6) and 1005(c) of the Illinois
15 Income Tax Act.
16     (b) Election. An eligible taxpayer that meets the
17 requirements of subsection (c) of this Section with respect to
18 any taxable year to which this Law applies may elect to
19 participate in the tax shelter voluntary compliance program
20 under either method for any particular tax avoidance
21 transaction period. Such election shall be made separately for
22 each taxable year and in the form and manner prescribed by the
23 Department, and once made shall be irrevocable.
24         (1) Voluntary compliance without appeal. If an
25     eligible taxpayer elects to participate under this
26     paragraph, then: (i) the Department shall abate and not
27     seek to collect any penalty that may be applicable to the
28     underreporting or underpayment of Illinois income tax
29     attributable to the use of tax avoidance transactions for
30     such taxable year, (ii) except as otherwise provided in
31     this Law, the Department shall not seek civil or criminal
32     prosecution against the taxpayer for such taxable year with
33     respect to tax avoidance transactions, and (iii) the
34     taxpayer may not file a claim for credit or refund with

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 208 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     respect to the tax avoidance transaction for such taxable
2     year. Nothing in this subsection shall preclude a taxpayer
3     from filing a claim for credit or refund for the same
4     taxable year in which a tax avoidance transaction was
5     reported if such credit or refund is not attributable to
6     the tax avoidance transaction. No penalty may be waived or
7     abated under this Law if the penalty imposed related to an
8     amount of Illinois income tax assessed prior to October 15,
9     2004.
10         (2) Voluntary compliance with appeal. If an eligible
11     taxpayer elects to participate under this paragraph, then:
12     (i) the Department shall abate and not seek to collect the
13     penalties imposed under Sections 1005(b) and 1005(c) of the
14     Illinois Income Tax Act with respect to such taxable year,
15     (ii) except as otherwise provided in this Act, the
16     Department shall not seek civil or criminal prosecution
17     against the taxpayer for such taxable year with respect to
18     tax avoidance transactions, and (iii) the taxpayer may file
19     a claim for credit or refund as provided in the Illinois
20     Income Tax Act with respect to such taxable year.
21     Notwithstanding Section 909(e) of the Illinois Income Tax
22     Act, the taxpayer may not file a written protest until
23     after either of the following: (i) the Department issues a
24     notice of denial, or (ii) the earlier of (1) the date which
25     is 180 days after the date of a final determination by the
26     Internal Revenue Service with respect to the transactions
27     at issue, or (2) the date that is 3 years after the date
28     the claim for refund was filed or one year after full
29     payment of all tax, including penalty and interest. No
30     penalty may be waived or abated under this Act if the
31     penalty imposed relates to an amount of Illinois income tax
32     assessed prior to October 15, 2004.
33     (c) Eligible taxpayer. The tax shelter voluntary
34 compliance program applies to any taxpayer who, during the

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 209 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 period from October 15, 2004 to January 31, 2005, does both of
2 the following:
3         (1) Files an amended return for the taxable year for
4     which the taxpayer used a tax avoidance transaction to
5     under report the taxpayer's Illinois income tax liability,
6     reporting the total Illinois net income and tax for such
7     taxable year computed without regard to any tax avoidance
8     transactions;
9         (2) Makes full payment of the additional Illinois
10     income tax and interest due for such taxable year that is
11     attributable to the use of the tax avoidance transaction
12     (not including a payment made under protest as provided in
13     Section 2a.1 of the State Officers and Employees Money
14     Disposition Act (30 ILCS 230/2a.1));
15     For purposes of this subsection (c), if the Department
16 subsequently determines that the correct amount of Illinois
17 income tax was not paid for the taxable year, then the penalty
18 relief under this Section shall not apply to any portion of the
19 underpayment attributable to a tax avoidance transaction not
20 paid to the State.
21     Section 35-10. "Tax avoidance transaction" defined. For
22 purposes of this Law, the term "tax avoidance transaction"
23 means a plan or arrangement devised for the principal purpose
24 of avoiding federal income tax. Tax avoidance transactions
25 include, but are not limited to, "listed transactions" as
26 defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b)(2).
27     Section 35-15. Use of evidence of participation in the
28 program. The fact of a taxpayer's participation in the tax
29 shelter voluntary compliance program shall not be considered
30 evidence that the taxpayer in fact engaged in a tax avoidance
31 transaction.
1     Section 35-90. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by
2 changing Sections 501, 905, 1001, 1002, and 1005 and by adding
3 Sections 1007, 1008, 1405.5, and 1405.6 as follows:
 
4     (35 ILCS 5/501)  (from Ch. 120, par. 5-501)
5     Sec. 501. Notice or Regulations Requiring Records,
6 Statements and Special Returns.
7     (a) In general. Every person liable for any tax imposed by
8 this Act shall keep such records, render such statements, make
9 such returns and notices, and comply with such rules and
10 regulations as the Department may from time to time prescribe.
11 Whenever in the judgment of the Director it is necessary, he
12 may require any person, by notice served upon such person or by
13 regulations, to make such returns and notices, render such
14 statements, or keep such records, as the Director deems
15 sufficient to show whether or not such person is liable for tax
16 under this Act.
17     (b) Reportable transactions. For each taxable year in which
18 a taxpayer is required to make a disclosure statement under
19 Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4 (26 CFR 1.6011-4)
20 (including any taxpayer that is a member of a consolidated
21 group required to make such disclosure) with respect to a
22 reportable transaction (including a listed transaction) in
23 which the taxpayer participated in a taxable year for which a
24 return is required under Section 502 of this Act, such taxpayer
25 shall file a copy of such disclosure with the Department.
26 Disclosure under this subsection is required to be made by any
27 taxpayer that is a member of a unitary business group that
28 includes any person required to make a disclosure statement
29 under Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4. Disclosure under
30 this subsection is required with respect to any transaction
31 entered into after February 28, 2000 that becomes a listed
32 transaction at any time, and shall be made in the manner
33 prescribed by the Department. With respect to transactions in

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 211 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 which the taxpayer participated for taxable years ending before
2 December 31, 2004, disclosure shall be made by the due date
3 (including extensions) of the first return required under
4 Section 502 of this Act due after the effective date of this
5 amendatory Act of the 93rd General Assembly. With respect to
6 transactions in which the taxpayer participated for taxable
7 years ending on and after December 31, 2004, disclosure shall
8 be made in the time and manner prescribed in Treasury
9 Regulations Section 1.6011-4(e). Notwithstanding the above, no
10 disclosure is required for transactions entered into after
11 February 28, 2000 and before January 1, 2005 (i) if the
12 taxpayer has filed an amended Illinois income tax return which
13 reverses the tax benefits of the potential tax avoidance
14 transaction, or (ii) as a result of a federal audit the
15 Internal Revenue Service has determined the tax treatment of
16 the transaction and an Illinois amended return has been filed
17 to reflect the federal treatment.

19     (35 ILCS 5/905)  (from Ch. 120, par. 9-905)
20     Sec. 905. Limitations on Notices of Deficiency.
21     (a) In general. Except as otherwise provided in this Act:
22         (1) A notice of deficiency shall be issued not later
23     than 3 years after the date the return was filed, and
24         (2) No deficiency shall be assessed or collected with
25     respect to the year for which the return was filed unless
26     such notice is issued within such period.
27     (b) Substantial omission of items.
28         (1) Omission of more than 25% of income. If the
29     taxpayer omits from base income an amount properly
30     includible therein which is in excess of 25% of the amount
31     of base income stated in the return, a notice of deficiency
32     may be issued not later than 6 years after the return was
33     filed. For purposes of this paragraph, there shall not be

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 212 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     taken into account any amount which is omitted in the
2     return if such amount is disclosed in the return, or in a
3     statement attached to the return, in a manner adequate to
4     apprise the Department of the nature and the amount of such
5     item.
6         (2) Reportable transactions. If a taxpayer fails to
7     include on any return or statement for any taxable year any
8     information with respect to a reportable transaction, as
9     required under Section 501(b) of this Act, a notice of
10     deficiency may be issued not later than 6 years after the
11     return is filed with respect to the taxable year in which
12     the taxpayer participated in the reportable transaction
13     and said deficiency is limited to the non-disclosed item.
14     (c) No return or fraudulent return. If no return is filed
15 or a false and fraudulent return is filed with intent to evade
16 the tax imposed by this Act, a notice of deficiency may be
17 issued at any time.
18     (d) Failure to report federal change. If a taxpayer fails
19 to notify the Department in any case where notification is
20 required by Section 304(c) or 506(b), or fails to report a
21 change or correction which is treated in the same manner as if
22 it were a deficiency for federal income tax purposes, a notice
23 of deficiency may be issued (i) at any time or (ii) on or after
24 August 13, 1999, at any time for the taxable year for which the
25 notification is required or for any taxable year to which the
26 taxpayer may carry an Article 2 credit, or a Section 207 loss,
27 earned, incurred, or used in the year for which the
28 notification is required; provided, however, that the amount of
29 any proposed assessment set forth in the notice shall be
30 limited to the amount of any deficiency resulting under this
31 Act from the recomputation of the taxpayer's net income,
32 Article 2 credits, or Section 207 loss earned, incurred, or
33 used in the taxable year for which the notification is required
34 after giving effect to the item or items required to be

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 213 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 reported.
2     (e) Report of federal change.
3         (1) Before August 13, 1999, in any case where
4     notification of an alteration is given as required by
5     Section 506(b), a notice of deficiency may be issued at any
6     time within 2 years after the date such notification is
7     given, provided, however, that the amount of any proposed
8     assessment set forth in such notice shall be limited to the
9     amount of any deficiency resulting under this Act from
10     recomputation of the taxpayer's net income, net loss, or
11     Article 2 credits for the taxable year after giving effect
12     to the item or items reflected in the reported alteration.
13         (2) On and after August 13, 1999, in any case where
14     notification of an alteration is given as required by
15     Section 506(b), a notice of deficiency may be issued at any
16     time within 2 years after the date such notification is
17     given for the taxable year for which the notification is
18     given or for any taxable year to which the taxpayer may
19     carry an Article 2 credit, or a Section 207 loss, earned,
20     incurred, or used in the year for which the notification is
21     given, provided, however, that the amount of any proposed
22     assessment set forth in such notice shall be limited to the
23     amount of any deficiency resulting under this Act from
24     recomputation of the taxpayer's net income, Article 2
25     credits, or Section 207 loss earned, incurred, or used in
26     the taxable year for which the notification is given after
27     giving effect to the item or items reflected in the
28     reported alteration.
29     (f) Extension by agreement. Where, before the expiration of
30 the time prescribed in this Section for the issuance of a
31 notice of deficiency, both the Department and the taxpayer
32 shall have consented in writing to its issuance after such
33 time, such notice may be issued at any time prior to the
34 expiration of the period agreed upon. In the case of a taxpayer

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 214 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 who is a partnership, Subchapter S corporation, or trust and
2 who enters into an agreement with the Department pursuant to
3 this subsection on or after January 1, 2003, a notice of
4 deficiency may be issued to the partners, shareholders, or
5 beneficiaries of the taxpayer at any time prior to the
6 expiration of the period agreed upon. Any proposed assessment
7 set forth in the notice, however, shall be limited to the
8 amount of any deficiency resulting under this Act from
9 recomputation of items of income, deduction, credits, or other
10 amounts of the taxpayer that are taken into account by the
11 partner, shareholder, or beneficiary in computing its
12 liability under this Act. The period so agreed upon may be
13 extended by subsequent agreements in writing made before the
14 expiration of the period previously agreed upon.
15     (g) Erroneous refunds. In any case in which there has been
16 an erroneous refund of tax payable under this Act, a notice of
17 deficiency may be issued at any time within 2 years from the
18 making of such refund, or within 5 years from the making of
19 such refund if it appears that any part of the refund was
20 induced by fraud or the misrepresentation of a material fact,
21 provided, however, that the amount of any proposed assessment
22 set forth in such notice shall be limited to the amount of such
23 erroneous refund.
24     Beginning July 1, 1993, in any case in which there has been
25 a refund of tax payable under this Act attributable to a net
26 loss carryback as provided for in Section 207, and that refund
27 is subsequently determined to be an erroneous refund due to a
28 reduction in the amount of the net loss which was originally
29 carried back, a notice of deficiency for the erroneous refund
30 amount may be issued at any time during the same time period in
31 which a notice of deficiency can be issued on the loss year
32 creating the carryback amount and subsequent erroneous refund.
33 The amount of any proposed assessment set forth in the notice
34 shall be limited to the amount of such erroneous refund.

6 purposes of subsection (a)(1), in the case of a tax return
7 required under this Act in respect of a decedent, or by his
8 estate during the period of administration, or by a
9 corporation, the period referred to in such Subsection shall be
10 18 months after a written request for prompt determination of
11 liability is filed with the Department (at such time and in
12 such form and manner as the Department shall by regulations
13 prescribe) by the executor, administrator, or other fiduciary
14 representing the estate of such decedent, or by such
15 corporation, but not more than 3 years after the date the
16 return was filed. This subsection shall not apply in the case
17 of a corporation unless:
18         (1) (A) such written request notifies the Department
19     that the corporation contemplates dissolution at or before
20     the expiration of such 18-month period, (B) the dissolution
21     is begun in good faith before the expiration of such
22     18-month period, and (C) the dissolution is completed;
23         (2) (A) such written request notifies the Department
24     that a dissolution has in good faith been begun, and (B)
25     the dissolution is completed; or
26         (3) a dissolution has been completed at the time such
27     written request is made.
28     (j) Withholding tax. In the case of returns required under
29 Article 7 of this Act (with respect to any amounts withheld as
30 tax or any amounts required to have been withheld as tax) a
31 notice of deficiency shall be issued not later than 3 years
32 after the 15th day of the 4th month following the close of the
33 calendar year in which such withholding was required.
34     (k) Penalties for failure to make information reports. A

3 the due date of the reports with respect to which the penalties
4 are asserted.
5     (l) Penalty for failure to file withholding returns. A
6 notice of deficiency for penalties provided by Section 1004 of
7 this Act for taxpayer's failure to file withholding returns may
8 not be issued more than three years after the 15th day of the
9 4th month following the close of the calendar year in which the
10 withholding giving rise to taxpayer's obligation to file those
11 returns occurred.
12     (m) Transferee liability. A notice of deficiency may be
13 issued to a transferee relative to a liability asserted under
14 Section 1405 during time periods defined as follows:
15         1) Initial Transferee. In the case of the liability of
16     an initial transferee, up to 2 years after the expiration
17     of the period of limitation for assessment against the
18     transferor, except that if a court proceeding for review of
19     the assessment against the transferor has begun, then up to
20     2 years after the return of the certified copy of the
21     judgment in the court proceeding.
22         2) Transferee of Transferee. In the case of the
23     liability of a transferee, up to 2 years after the
24     expiration of the period of limitation for assessment
25     against the preceding transferee, but not more than 3 years
26     after the expiration of the period of limitation for
27     assessment against the initial transferor; except that if,
28     before the expiration of the period of limitation for the
29     assessment of the liability of the transferee, a court
30     proceeding for the collection of the tax or liability in
31     respect thereof has been begun against the initial
32     transferor or the last preceding transferee, as the case
33     may be, then the period of limitation for assessment of the
34     liability of the transferee shall expire 2 years after the

5 Assembly, no notice of deficiency shall be issued as the result
6 of a decrease determined by the Department in the net loss
7 incurred by a taxpayer under Section 207 of this Act unless the
8 Department has notified the taxpayer of the proposed decrease
9 within 3 years after the return reporting the loss was filed or
10 within one year after an amended return reporting an increase
11 in the loss was filed, provided that in the case of an amended
12 return, a decrease proposed by the Department more than 3 years
13 after the original return was filed may not exceed the increase
14 claimed by the taxpayer on the original return.

1 tax imposed by this Act who willfully fails to collect such tax
2 or truthfully account for and pay over such tax or willfully
3 attempts in any manner to evade or defeat the tax or the

10     provided by this Act shall be paid upon notice and demand
11     and shall be assessed, collected, and paid in the same
12     manner as taxes and any reference in this Act to the tax
13     imposed by this Act shall be deemed also to refer to
14     penalties provided by this Act.
15         (2) Procedure for assessing certain penalties. For the

3 was filed on or before the last day prescribed by law for the
4 filing of such return, including any extensions of the time for
5 such filing.

8     Sec. 1005. Penalty for Underpayment of Tax.
9     (a) In general. If any amount of tax required to be shown
10 on a return prescribed by this Act is not paid on or before the
11 date required for filing such return (determined without regard
12 to any extension of time to file), a penalty shall be imposed
13 in the manner and at the rate prescribed by the Uniform Penalty
14 and Interest Act.
15     (b) Reportable transaction penalty. If a taxpayer has a
16 reportable transaction understatement for any taxable year,
17 there shall be added to the tax an amount equal to 20% of the
18 amount of that understatement. This penalty shall be deemed
19 assessed upon the assessment of the tax to which such penalty
20 relates and shall be collected and paid on notice and demand in
21 the same manner as the tax.
22         (1) Reportable transaction understatement. For
23     purposes of this Section, the term "reportable transaction
24     understatement" means the sum of subparagraphs (A) and (B):
25             (A) The product of (i) the amount of the increase
26         (if any) in Illinois net income, as determined by
27         reference to the amount of post-apportioned income
28         that results from a difference between the proper tax
29         treatment of an item to which this subsection applies
30         and the taxpayer's treatment of that item (as shown on
31         the taxpayer's return of tax), including an amended
32         return filed prior to the date the taxpayer is first
33         contacted by the Department regarding the examination

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 222 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1         of the return, and (ii) the applicable tax rates under
2         Section 201 of this Act.
3             (B) Special rules in the case of carrybacks and
4         carryovers. The penalty for an understatement of
5         income attributable to a reportable transaction
6         applies to any portion of an understatement for a year
7         to which a loss, deduction, or credit is carried that
8         is attributable to a reportable transaction for that
9         year in which the carryback or carryover of the loss,
10         deduction, or credit arises (the "loss or credit
11         year").
12         (2) Items to which subsection applies. This subsection
13     shall apply to any item which is attributable to either of
14     the following: (i) any listed transaction as defined in
15     Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4, and (ii) any
16     reportable transaction as defined in Treasury Regulations
17     Section 1.6011-4 (other than a listed transaction) if a
18     significant purpose of the transaction is the avoidance or
19     evasion of federal income tax.
20         (3) Subsection (b) shall be applied by substituting
21     "30%" for "20%" with respect to the portion of any
22     reportable transaction understatement with respect to
23     which the requirements of (4)(B)(i) of this subsection are
24     not met.
25         (4) Reasonable cause exception.
26             (A) In general. No penalty shall be imposed under
27         this subsection with respect to any portion of a
28         reportable transaction understatement if it is shown
29         that there was a reasonable cause for such portion and
30         that the taxpayer acted in good faith with respect to
31         such portion.
32             (B) Special rules. Subparagraph (A) does not apply
33         to any reportable transaction (including listed
34         transaction) unless all of the following requirements

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 223 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1         are met:
2                 (i) The relevant facts affecting the tax
3             treatment of the item are adequately disclosed in
4             accordance with Section 501(b) of this Act. A
5             taxpayer failing to adequately disclose in
6             accordance with Section 501(b) shall be treated as
7             meeting the requirements of this subparagraph (i)
8             if the penalty for that failure was rescinded under
9             Section 1001(b)(3) of this Act;
10                 (ii) There is or was substantial authority for
11             such treatment; and
12                 (iii) The taxpayer reasonably believed that
13             such treatment was more likely than not the proper
14             treatment.
15             (C) Rules relating to reasonable belief. For
16         purposes of subparagraph (B), a taxpayer shall be
17         treated as having a reasonable belief with respect to
18         the tax treatment of an item only if such belief meets
19         the requirements of this subparagraph (C):
20                 (i) Such belief must be based on the facts and
21             law that exist at the time the return of tax that
22             includes that tax treatment is filed;
23                 (ii) Such belief must relate solely to the
24             taxpayer's chances of success on the merits of that
25             treatment and does not take into account the
26             possibility that the return will not be audited,
27             that the treatment will not be raised on audit, or
28             that the treatment will be resolved through
29             settlement if it is raised; and
30                 (iii) Such belief is not solely based on the
31             opinion of a disqualified tax advisor or on a
32             disqualified opinion.
33         (5) Definitions.
34             (A) Disqualified tax advisor. The term

14             the intended tax benefits from the transaction

17             prescribed by either the Secretary of the Treasury
18             for federal income tax purposes or the Department,
19             has a continuing financial interest with respect
20             to the transaction.
21             (B) Disqualified opinion. The term "disqualified

1             prescribe.
2             (C) Material Advisor. The term "material advisor"
3         shall have substantially the same meaning as the same

6         person that is a material advisor for federal income
7         tax purposes under such regulation.
8         (6) Effective date. This subsection shall apply to
9     taxable years ending on and after December 31, 2004, except
10     that a reportable transaction understatement shall include
11     an understatement (as determined under paragraph (1)) with
12     respect to any taxable year for which the limitations
13     period on assessment has not expired as of January 1, 2005
14     that is attributable to a transaction which the taxpayer
15     has entered into after February 28, 2000 and before
16     December 31, 2004 that becomes a listed transaction (as
17     defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b)(2) at

26 to 100% of the interest assessed under the Uniform Penalty and
27 Interest Act (determined without regard to subsection (f) of
28 Section 3-2 of such Act) for the period beginning on the last
29 date prescribed by law for the payment of such tax and ending
30 on the date of the notice of deficiency. Such penalty shall be
31 deemed assessed upon the assessment of the interest to which
32 such penalty relates and shall be collected and paid in the
33 same manner as such interest. The penalty imposed by this
34 subsection is in addition to any penalty imposed by this Act or

7 with respect to any taxable year for which the limitations
8 period on assessment has not expired as of January 1, 2005 that

12 defined in Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4(b)(2)) at any
13 time.

15 after July 1, 2002, for any notice of deficiency issued before
16 the taxpayer is contacted by the Internal Revenue Service or
17 the Department regarding a potential tax avoidance
18 transaction, the taxpayer is subject to interest as provided
19 under Section 3-2 of the Uniform Penalty and Interest Act, but
20 with respect to any deficiency attributable to a potential tax
21 avoidance transaction, the taxpayer is subject to interest at a
22 rate of 150% of the otherwise applicable rate.
23     (e) Coordination with other penalties. Except as provided
24 in regulations, the penalties imposed by this Section are in

09300SB2207ham002 - 233 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 Illinois Insurance Code, whose state or country of domicile
2 imposes on insurers domiciled in Illinois a retaliatory tax
3 (excluding any insurer whose premiums from reinsurance assumed
4 are 50% or more of its total insurance premiums as determined
5 under paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 304, except
6 that for purposes of this determination premiums from
7 reinsurance do not include premiums from inter-affiliate
8 reinsurance arrangements), beginning with taxable years ending
9 on or after December 31, 1999, the sum of the rates of tax
10 imposed by subsections (b) and (d) shall be reduced (but not
11 increased) to the rate at which the total amount of tax imposed
12 under this Act, net of all credits allowed under this Act,
13 shall equal (i) the total amount of tax that would be imposed
14 on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
15 the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
16 domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes
17 and taxes measured by net income imposed by such foreign
18 insurer's state or country of domicile, net of all credits
19 allowed or (ii) a rate of zero if no such tax is imposed on such
20 income by the foreign insurer's state of domicile. For the
21 purposes of this subsection (d-1), an inter-affiliate includes
22 a mutual insurer under common management.
23         (1) For the purposes of subsection (d-1), in no event
24     shall the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections
25     (b) and (d) be reduced below the rate at which the sum of:
26             (A) the total amount of tax imposed on such foreign
27         insurer under this Act for a taxable year, net of all
28         credits allowed under this Act, plus
29             (B) the privilege tax imposed by Section 409 of the
30         Illinois Insurance Code, the fire insurance company
31         tax imposed by Section 12 of the Fire Investigation
32         Act, and the fire department taxes imposed under
33         Section 11-10-1 of the Illinois Municipal Code,
34     equals 1.25% for taxable years ending prior to December 31,

1     2003, or 1.75% for taxable years ending on or after
2     December 31, 2003, of the net taxable premiums written for
3     the taxable year, as described by subsection (1) of Section
4     409 of the Illinois Insurance Code. This paragraph will in
5     no event increase the rates imposed under subsections (b)
6     and (d).
7         (2) Any reduction in the rates of tax imposed by this
8     subsection shall be applied first against the rates imposed
9     by subsection (b) and only after the tax imposed by
10     subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
11     Section other than the credit allowed under subsection (i)
12     has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by
13     subsection (d).
14     This subsection (d-1) is exempt from the provisions of
15 Section 250.
16     (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit
17 against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax for
18 investment in qualified property.
19         (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
20     of the basis of qualified property placed in service during
21     the taxable year, provided such property is placed in
22     service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed an
23     additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of qualified
24     property placed in service during the taxable year,
25     provided such property is placed in service on or after
26     July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment within
27     Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the preceding
28     year as determined by the taxpayer's employment records
29     filed with the Illinois Department of Employment Security.
30     Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be deemed to have
31     met the 1% growth in base employment for the first year in
32     which they file employment records with the Illinois
33     Department of Employment Security. The provisions added to
34     this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored by Public

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 235 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of existing
2     law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year, the
3     increase in base employment within Illinois over the
4     preceding year is less than 1%, the additional credit shall
5     be limited to that percentage times a fraction, the
6     numerator of which is .5% and the denominator of which is
7     1%, but shall not exceed .5%. The investment credit shall
8     not be allowed to the extent that it would reduce a
9     taxpayer's liability in any tax year below zero, nor may
10     any credit for qualified property be allowed for any year
11     other than the year in which the property was placed in
12     service in Illinois. For tax years ending on or after
13     December 31, 1987, and on or before December 31, 1988, the
14     credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
15     property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
16     credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
17     exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
18     amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
19     the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
20     excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
21     which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
22     equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
23     enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
24     Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
25     Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
26     Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity) as
27     complying with the requirements specified in clause (i) and
28     (ii) by July 1, 1986. The Department of Commerce and
29     Community Affairs (now Department of Commerce and Economic
30     Opportunity) shall notify the Department of Revenue of all
31     such certifications immediately. For tax years ending
32     after December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for
33     the tax year in which the property is placed in service,
34     or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 236 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability or
2     the liability as later amended, such excess may be carried
3     forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable
4     years following the excess credit years. The credit shall
5     be applied to the earliest year for which there is a
6     liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year
7     that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit
8     shall be applied first.
9         (2) The term "qualified property" means property
10     which:
11             (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
12         buildings and structural components of buildings and
13         signs that are real property, but not including land or
14         improvements to real property that are not a structural
15         component of a building such as landscaping, sewer
16         lines, local access roads, fencing, parking lots, and
17         other appurtenances;
18             (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
19         Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
20         as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
21         eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
22         (e);
23             (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
24         179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
25             (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is
26         primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining coal
27         or fluorite, or in retailing; and
28             (E) has not previously been used in Illinois in
29         such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
30         the credit provided by this subsection (e) or
31         subsection (f).
32         (3) For purposes of this subsection (e),
33     "manufacturing" means the material staging and production
34     of tangible personal property by procedures commonly

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 237 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or
2     assembling which changes some existing material into new
3     shapes, new qualities, or new combinations. For purposes of
4     this subsection (e) the term "mining" shall have the same
5     meaning as the term "mining" in Section 613(c) of the
6     Internal Revenue Code. For purposes of this subsection (e),
7     the term "retailing" means the sale of tangible personal
8     property or services rendered in conjunction with the sale
9     of tangible consumer goods or commodities.
10         (4) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
11     used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
12     income tax purposes.
13         (5) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
14     depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
15     in service in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of such
16     increase shall be deemed property placed in service on the
17     date of such increase in basis.
18         (6) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
19     meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
20         (7) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
21     be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
22     48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
23     any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
24     months after being placed in service, the Personal Property
25     Tax Replacement Income Tax for such taxable year shall be
26     increased. Such increase shall be determined by (i)
27     recomputing the investment credit which would have been
28     allowed for the year in which credit for such property was
29     originally allowed by eliminating such property from such
30     computation and, (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit
31     from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the
32     purposes of this paragraph (7), a reduction of the basis of
33     qualified property resulting from a redetermination of the
34     purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of qualified

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 238 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     property to the extent of such reduction.
2         (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by law,
3     the basis of qualified property shall not include costs
4     incurred after December 31, 2003, except for costs incurred
5     pursuant to a binding contract entered into on or before
6     December 31, 2003.
7         (9) Each taxable year ending before December 31, 2000,
8     a partnership may elect to pass through to its partners the
9     credits to which the partnership is entitled under this
10     subsection (e) for the taxable year. A partner may use the
11     credit allocated to him or her under this paragraph only
12     against the tax imposed in subsections (c) and (d) of this
13     Section. If the partnership makes that election, those
14     credits shall be allocated among the partners in the
15     partnership in accordance with the rules set forth in
16     Section 704(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules
17     promulgated under that Section, and the allocated amount of
18     the credits shall be allowed to the partners for that
19     taxable year. The partnership shall make this election on
20     its Personal Property Tax Replacement Income Tax return for
21     that taxable year. The election to pass through the credits
22     shall be irrevocable.
23         For taxable years ending on or after December 31, 2000,
24     a partner that qualifies its partnership for a subtraction
25     under subparagraph (I) of paragraph (2) of subsection (d)
26     of Section 203 or a shareholder that qualifies a Subchapter
27     S corporation for a subtraction under subparagraph (S) of
28     paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 203 shall be
29     allowed a credit under this subsection (e) equal to its
30     share of the credit earned under this subsection (e) during
31     the taxable year by the partnership or Subchapter S
32     corporation, determined in accordance with the
33     determination of income and distributive share of income
34     under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal

2     of Section 250.
3       (f) Investment credit; Enterprise Zone.
4         (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the
5     tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for
6     investment in qualified property which is placed in service
7     in an Enterprise Zone created pursuant to the Illinois
8     Enterprise Zone Act. For partners, shareholders of
9     Subchapter S corporations, and owners of limited liability
10     companies, if the liability company is treated as a
11     partnership for purposes of federal and State income
12     taxation, there shall be allowed a credit under this
13     subsection (f) to be determined in accordance with the
14     determination of income and distributive share of income
15     under Sections 702 and 704 and Subchapter S of the Internal
16     Revenue Code. The credit shall be .5% of the basis for such
17     property. The credit shall be available only in the taxable
18     year in which the property is placed in service in the
19     Enterprise Zone and shall not be allowed to the extent that
20     it would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed
21     by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero.
22     For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1985, the
23     credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the
24     property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the
25     credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether it
26     exceeds the original liability or the liability as later
27     amended, such excess may be carried forward and applied to
28     the tax liability of the 5 taxable years following the
29     excess credit year. The credit shall be applied to the
30     earliest year for which there is a liability. If there is
31     credit from more than one tax year that is available to
32     offset a liability, the credit accruing first in time shall
33     be applied first.
34         (2) The term qualified property means property which:

9         179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code;
10             (D) is used in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer;
11         and
12             (E) has not been previously used in Illinois in
13         such a manner and by such a person as would qualify for
14         the credit provided by this subsection (f) or
15         subsection (e).
16         (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
17     used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
18     income tax purposes.
19         (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax
20     depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
21     in service in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer, the
22     amount of such increase shall be deemed property placed in
23     service on the date of such increase in basis.
24         (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
25     meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
26         (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases to
27     be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer within
28     48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
29     any qualified property is moved outside the Enterprise Zone
30     within 48 months after being placed in service, the tax
31     imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for
32     such taxable year shall be increased. Such increase shall
33     be determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit
34     which would have been allowed for the year in which credit

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 241 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     for such property was originally allowed by eliminating
2     such property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting
3     such recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
4     allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a
5     reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting from
6     a redetermination of the purchase price shall be deemed a
7     disposition of qualified property to the extent of such
8     reduction.
9       (g) Jobs Tax Credit; Enterprise Zone and Foreign Trade
10 Zone or Sub-Zone.
11         (1) A taxpayer conducting a trade or business in an

25         enterprise zone or federally designated Foreign Trade
26         Zone or Sub-Zone must increase by 5 or more full-time
27         employees beyond the total employed in that zone at the
28         end of the previous tax year for which a jobs tax

31         whichever is later; and
32             (C) the eligible employees must be employed 180
33         consecutive days in order to be deemed hired for

28     hired. If the amount of the credit exceeds the tax
29     liability for that year, whether it exceeds the original
30     liability or the liability as later amended, such excess
31     may be carried forward and applied to the tax liability of
32     the 5 taxable years following the excess credit year. The

11     allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
12     and (b) of this Section for investment in qualified
13     property which is placed in service by a Department of
14     Commerce and Economic Opportunity Community Affairs
15     designated High Impact Business. The credit shall be .5% of
16     the basis for such property. The credit shall not be
17     available (i) until the minimum investments in qualified
18     property set forth in subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section 5.5
19     of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act have been satisfied or
20     (ii) until the time authorized in subsection (b-5) of the
21     Illinois Enterprise Zone Act for entities designated as
22     High Impact Businesses under subdivisions (a)(3)(B),
23     (a)(3)(C), and (a)(3)(D) of Section 5.5 of the Illinois
24     Enterprise Zone Act, and shall not be allowed to the extent
25     that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax
26     imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below
27     zero. The credit applicable to such investments shall be
28     taken in the taxable year in which such investments have
29     been completed. The credit for additional investments
30     beyond the minimum investment by a designated high impact
31     business authorized under subdivision (a)(3)(A) of Section
32     5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act shall be available
33     only in the taxable year in which the property is placed in
34     service and shall not be allowed to the extent that it

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 244 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by
2     subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. For
3     tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, the credit
4     shall be allowed for the tax year in which the property is
5     placed in service, or, if the amount of the credit exceeds
6     the tax liability for that year, whether it exceeds the
7     original liability or the liability as later amended, such
8     excess may be carried forward and applied to the tax
9     liability of the 5 taxable years following the excess
10     credit year. The credit shall be applied to the earliest
11     year for which there is a liability. If there is credit
12     from more than one tax year that is available to offset a
13     liability, the credit accruing first in time shall be
14     applied first.
15         Changes made in this subdivision (h)(1) by Public Act
16     88-670 restore changes made by Public Act 85-1182 and
17     reflect existing law.
18         (2) The term qualified property means property which:
19             (A) is tangible, whether new or used, including
20         buildings and structural components of buildings;
21             (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of the
22         Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year property"
23         as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that Code is not
24         eligible for the credit provided by this subsection
25         (h);
26             (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in Section
27         179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and
28             (D) is not eligible for the Enterprise Zone
29         Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this
30         Section.
31         (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the basis
32     used to compute the depreciation deduction for federal
33     income tax purposes.
34         (4) If the basis of the property for federal income tax

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 245 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     depreciation purposes is increased after it has been placed
2     in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or
3     Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the amount of
4     such increase shall be deemed property placed in service on
5     the date of such increase in basis.
6         (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the same
7     meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue Code.
8         (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before
9     December 31, 1996, any property ceases to be qualified
10     property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months
11     after being placed in service, or the situs of any
12     qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
13     months after being placed in service, the tax imposed under
14     subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable
15     year shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined
16     by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
17     been allowed for the year in which credit for such property
18     was originally allowed by eliminating such property from
19     such computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed
20     credit from the amount of credit previously allowed. For
21     the purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the
22     basis of qualified property resulting from a
23     redetermination of the purchase price shall be deemed a
24     disposition of qualified property to the extent of such
25     reduction.
26         (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December 31,
27     1996, if a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under this
28     subsection (h) and thereby is granted a tax abatement and
29     the taxpayer relocates its entire facility in violation of
30     the explicit terms and length of the contract under Section
31     18-183 of the Property Tax Code, the tax imposed under
32     subsections (a) and (b) of this Section shall be increased
33     for the taxable year in which the taxpayer relocated its
34     facility by an amount equal to the amount of credit

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 246 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     received by the taxpayer under this subsection (h).
2     (i) Credit for Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
3 Tax. For tax years ending prior to December 31, 2003, a credit
4 shall be allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and
5 (b) of this Section for the tax imposed by subsections (c) and
6 (d) of this Section. This credit shall be computed by
7 multiplying the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
8 Section by a fraction, the numerator of which is base income
9 allocable to Illinois and the denominator of which is Illinois
10 base income, and further multiplying the product by the tax
11 rate imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section.
12     Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under this
13 subsection which is unused in the year the credit is computed
14 because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by subsections (a)
15 and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the original
16 liability or the liability as later amended) may be carried
17 forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by subsections
18 (a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the excess credit
19 year, provided that no credit may be carried forward to any
20 year ending on or after December 31, 2003. This credit shall be
21 applied first to the earliest year for which there is a
22 liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from more
23 than one tax year that is available to offset a liability the
24 earliest credit arising under this subsection shall be applied
25 first.
26     If, during any taxable year ending on or after December 31,
27 1986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this
28 Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this
29 subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax
30 shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by
31 recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax
32 imposed by subsections (c) and (d). If any portion of the
33 reduced amount of credit has been carried to a different
34 taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such taxable

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 247 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 year to reduce the amount of credit claimed.
2     (j) Training expense credit. Beginning with tax years
3 ending on or after December 31, 1986 and prior to December 31,
4 2003, a taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax
5 imposed by subsections (a) and (b) under this Section for all
6 amounts paid or accrued, on behalf of all persons employed by
7 the taxpayer in Illinois or Illinois residents employed outside
8 of Illinois by a taxpayer, for educational or vocational
9 training in semi-technical or technical fields or semi-skilled
10 or skilled fields, which were deducted from gross income in the
11 computation of taxable income. The credit against the tax
12 imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 1.6% of such
13 training expenses. For partners, shareholders of subchapter S
14 corporations, and owners of limited liability companies, if the
15 liability company is treated as a partnership for purposes of
16 federal and State income taxation, there shall be allowed a
17 credit under this subsection (j) to be determined in accordance
18 with the determination of income and distributive share of
19 income under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the
20 Internal Revenue Code.
21     Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused in
22 the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to each of
23 the 5 taxable years following the year for which the credit is
24 first computed until it is used. This credit shall be applied
25 first to the earliest year for which there is a liability. If
26 there is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax
27 year that is available to offset a liability the earliest
28 credit arising under this subsection shall be applied first. No
29 carryforward credit may be claimed in any tax year ending on or
30 after December 31, 2003.
31     (k) Research and development credit.
32     For tax years ending after July 1, 1990 and prior to
33 December 31, 2003, and beginning again for tax years ending on
34 or after December 31, 2004, a taxpayer shall be allowed a

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 248 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of
2 this Section for increasing research activities in this State.
3 The credit allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
4 and (b) shall be equal to 6 1/2% of the qualifying expenditures
5 for increasing research activities in this State. For partners,
6 shareholders of subchapter S corporations, and owners of
7 limited liability companies, if the liability company is
8 treated as a partnership for purposes of federal and State
9 income taxation, there shall be allowed a credit under this
10 subsection to be determined in accordance with the
11 determination of income and distributive share of income under
12 Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the Internal Revenue
13 Code.
14     For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying expenditures"
15 means the qualifying expenditures as defined for the federal
16 credit for increasing research activities which would be
17 allowable under Section 41 of the Internal Revenue Code and
18 which are conducted in this State, "qualifying expenditures for
19 increasing research activities in this State" means the excess
20 of qualifying expenditures for the taxable year in which
21 incurred over qualifying expenditures for the base period,
22 "qualifying expenditures for the base period" means the average
23 of the qualifying expenditures for each year in the base
24 period, and "base period" means the 3 taxable years immediately
25 preceding the taxable year for which the determination is being
26 made.
27     Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable
28 year may be carried forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the
29 unused credit shown on its final completed return carried over
30 as a credit against the tax liability for the following 5
31 taxable years or until it has been fully used, whichever occurs
32 first; provided that no credit earned in a tax year ending
33 prior to December 31, 2003 may be carried forward to any year
34 ending on or after December 31, 2003. ; provided that no credit

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 249 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 may be carried forward to any year ending on or after December
2 31, 2003.
3     If an unused credit is carried forward to a given year from
4 2 or more earlier years, that credit arising in the earliest
5 year will be applied first against the tax liability for the
6 given year. If a tax liability for the given year still
7 remains, the credit from the next earliest year will then be
8 applied, and so on, until all credits have been used or no tax
9 liability for the given year remains. Any remaining unused
10 credit or credits then will be carried forward to the next
11 following year in which a tax liability is incurred, except
12 that no credit can be carried forward to a year which is more
13 than 5 years after the year in which the expense for which the
14 credit is given was incurred.
15     No inference shall be drawn from this amendatory Act of the
16 91st General Assembly in construing this Section for taxable
17 years beginning before January 1, 1999.
18     (l) Environmental Remediation Tax Credit.
19         (i) For tax years ending after December 31, 1997 and on
20     or before December 31, 2001, a taxpayer shall be allowed a
21     credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b)
22     of this Section for certain amounts paid for unreimbursed
23     eligible remediation costs, as specified in this
24     subsection. For purposes of this Section, "unreimbursed
25     eligible remediation costs" means costs approved by the
26     Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("Agency") under
27     Section 58.14 of the Environmental Protection Act that were
28     paid in performing environmental remediation at a site for
29     which a No Further Remediation Letter was issued by the
30     Agency and recorded under Section 58.10 of the
31     Environmental Protection Act. The credit must be claimed
32     for the taxable year in which Agency approval of the
33     eligible remediation costs is granted. The credit is not
34     available to any taxpayer if the taxpayer or any related

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 250 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     party caused or contributed to, in any material respect, a
2     release of regulated substances on, in, or under the site
3     that was identified and addressed by the remedial action
4     pursuant to the Site Remediation Program of the
5     Environmental Protection Act. After the Pollution Control
6     Board rules are adopted pursuant to the Illinois
7     Administrative Procedure Act for the administration and
8     enforcement of Section 58.9 of the Environmental
9     Protection Act, determinations as to credit availability
10     for purposes of this Section shall be made consistent with
11     those rules. For purposes of this Section, "taxpayer"
12     includes a person whose tax attributes the taxpayer has
13     succeeded to under Section 381 of the Internal Revenue Code
14     and "related party" includes the persons disallowed a
15     deduction for losses by paragraphs (b), (c), and (f)(1) of
16     Section 267 of the Internal Revenue Code by virtue of being
17     a related taxpayer, as well as any of its partners. The
18     credit allowed against the tax imposed by subsections (a)
19     and (b) shall be equal to 25% of the unreimbursed eligible
20     remediation costs in excess of $100,000 per site, except
21     that the $100,000 threshold shall not apply to any site
22     contained in an enterprise zone as determined by the
23     Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now
24     Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity). The
25     total credit allowed shall not exceed $40,000 per year with
26     a maximum total of $150,000 per site. For partners and
27     shareholders of subchapter S corporations, there shall be
28     allowed a credit under this subsection to be determined in
29     accordance with the determination of income and
30     distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704 and
31     subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code.
32         (ii) A credit allowed under this subsection that is
33     unused in the year the credit is earned may be carried
34     forward to each of the 5 taxable years following the year

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 251 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1     for which the credit is first earned until it is used. The
2     term "unused credit" does not include any amounts of
3     unreimbursed eligible remediation costs in excess of the
4     maximum credit per site authorized under paragraph (i).
5     This credit shall be applied first to the earliest year for
6     which there is a liability. If there is a credit under this
7     subsection from more than one tax year that is available to
8     offset a liability, the earliest credit arising under this
9     subsection shall be applied first. A credit allowed under
10     this subsection may be sold to a buyer as part of a sale of
11     all or part of the remediation site for which the credit
12     was granted. The purchaser of a remediation site and the
13     tax credit shall succeed to the unused credit and remaining
14     carry-forward period of the seller. To perfect the
15     transfer, the assignor shall record the transfer in the
16     chain of title for the site and provide written notice to
17     the Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue of the
18     assignor's intent to sell the remediation site and the
19     amount of the tax credit to be transferred as a portion of
20     the sale. In no event may a credit be transferred to any
21     taxpayer if the taxpayer or a related party would not be
22     eligible under the provisions of subsection (i).
23         (iii) For purposes of this Section, the term "site"
24     shall have the same meaning as under Section 58.2 of the
25     Environmental Protection Act.
26     (m) Education expense credit. Beginning with tax years
27 ending after December 31, 1999, a taxpayer who is the custodian
28 of one or more qualifying pupils shall be allowed a credit
29 against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of this
30 Section for qualified education expenses incurred on behalf of
31 the qualifying pupils. The credit shall be equal to 25% of
32 qualified education expenses, but in no event may the total
33 credit under this subsection claimed by a family that is the
34 custodian of qualifying pupils exceed $500. In no event shall a

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 252 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 credit under this subsection reduce the taxpayer's liability
2 under this Act to less than zero. This subsection is exempt
3 from the provisions of Section 250 of this Act.
4     For purposes of this subsection:
5     "Qualifying pupils" means individuals who (i) are
6 residents of the State of Illinois, (ii) are under the age of
7 21 at the close of the school year for which a credit is
8 sought, and (iii) during the school year for which a credit is
9 sought were full-time pupils enrolled in a kindergarten through
10 twelfth grade education program at any school, as defined in
11 this subsection.
12     "Qualified education expense" means the amount incurred on
13 behalf of a qualifying pupil in excess of $250 for tuition,
14 book fees, and lab fees at the school in which the pupil is
15 enrolled during the regular school year.
16     "School" means any public or nonpublic elementary or
17 secondary school in Illinois that is in compliance with Title
18 VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and attendance at which
19 satisfies the requirements of Section 26-1 of the School Code,
20 except that nothing shall be construed to require a child to
21 attend any particular public or nonpublic school to qualify for
22 the credit under this Section.
23     "Custodian" means, with respect to qualifying pupils, an
24 Illinois resident who is a parent, the parents, a legal
25 guardian, or the legal guardians of the qualifying pupils.

30     Section 45-5. The Environmental Protection Act is amended
31 by changing Sections 12.5 as follows:
1     (415 ILCS 5/12.5)
2     Sec. 12.5. NPDES discharge fees; sludge permit fees.
3     (a) Beginning July 1, 2003, the Agency shall assess and
4 collect annual fees (i) in the amounts set forth in subsection
5 (e) for all discharges that require an NPDES permit under
6 subsection (f) of Section 12, from each person holding an NPDES
7 permit authorizing those discharges (including a person who
8 continues to discharge under an expired permit pending
9 renewal), and (ii) in the amounts set forth in subsection (f)
10 of this Section for all activities that require a permit under
11 subsection (b) of Section 12, from each person holding a
12 domestic sewage sludge generator or user permit.
13     Each person subject to this Section must remit the
14 applicable annual fee to the Agency in accordance with the
15 requirements set forth in this Section and any rules adopted
16 pursuant to this Section.
17     (b) Within 30 days after the effective date of this
18 Section, and by May 31 of each year thereafter, the Agency
19 shall send a fee notice by mail to each existing permittee
20 subject to a fee under this Section at his or her address of
21 record. The notice shall state the amount of the applicable
22 annual fee and the date by which payment is required.
23     Except as provided in subsection (c) with respect to
24 initial fees under new permits and certain modifications of
25 existing permits, fees payable under this Section for the 12
26 months beginning July 1, 2003 are due by the date specified in
27 the fee notice, which shall be no less than 30 days after the
28 date the fee notice is mailed by the Agency, and fees payable
29 under this Section for subsequent years shall be due on July 1
30 or as otherwise required in any rules that may be adopted
31 pursuant to this Section.
32     (c) The initial annual fee for discharges under a new
33 individual NPDES permit or for activity under a new individual
34 sludge generator or sludge user permit must be remitted to the

 

 

09300SB2207ham002 - 254 - LRB093 15831 BDD 52995 a

1 Agency prior to the issuance of the permit. The Agency shall
2 provide notice of the amount of the fee to the applicant during
3 its review of the application. In the case of a new individual
4 NPDES or sludge permit issued during the months of January
5 through June, the Agency may prorate the initial annual fee
6 payable under this Section.
7     The initial annual fee for discharges or other activity
8 under a general NPDES permit must be remitted to the Agency as
9 part of the application for coverage under that general permit.
10     If a requested modification to an existing NPDES permit
11 causes a change in the applicable fee categories under
12 subsection (e) that results in an increase in the required fee,
13 the permittee must pay to the Agency the amount of the
14 increase, prorated for the number of months remaining before
15 the next July 1, before the modification is granted.
16     (d) Failure to submit the fee required under this Section
17 by the due date constitutes a violation of this Section. Late
18 payments shall incur an interest penalty, calculated at the
19 rate in effect from time to time for tax delinquencies under
20 subsection (a) of Section 1003 of the Illinois Income Tax Act,
21 from the date the fee is due until the date the fee payment is
22 received by the Agency.
23     (e) The annual fees applicable to discharges under NPDES
24 permits are as follows:
25         (1) For NPDES permits for publicly owned treatment
26     works, other facilities for which the wastewater being
27     treated and discharged is primarily domestic sewage, and
28     wastewater discharges from the operation of public water
29     supply treatment facilities, the fee is:
30             (i) $1,500 for the 12 months beginning July 1, 2003

23         than 25,000; and
24             (iii) $20,000 for systems serving a tributary
25         population that is greater than 25,000.
