10with the permission of the Department.
11    All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds
12transfer and any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make
13payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those payments
14in the manner authorized by the Department.
15    The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to
16effectuate a program of electronic funds transfer and the
17requirements of this Section.
18    Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
19tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Retailers'
20Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, the Service
21Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete
22calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the Department
23each month by the 20th day of the month next following the
24month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall
25make payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
2622nd and last day of the month during which such liability is

 

 

HB5167- 17 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's
2average monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act,
3the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
4Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the
5preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
6with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
7next following the month during which such tax liability is
8incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
9the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
10liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
11liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
12payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
13actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
14Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
15of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
16calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
17the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
18month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
19after January 1, 1985, and prior to January 1, 1987, each
20payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
21actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
22liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
23the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
24or after January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each
25payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
26actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's

 

 

HB5167- 18 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
2the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
3or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
4begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
5amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
6the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
7calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
8such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
91989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
10amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
11the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
12calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
13actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
14amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
15against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
16that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
17requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
18Department shall continue until such taxpayer's average
19monthly liability to the Department during the preceding 4
20complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
21liability and the month of lowest liability) is less than
22$9,000, or until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
23the Department as computed for each calendar quarter of the 4
24preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
25$10,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
26substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred

 

 

HB5167- 19 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 20 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 21 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 22 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 23 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 24 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 25 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 26 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 27 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

16an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the
17net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of

19been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that
20is now taxed at 6.25%.

10with the return for January, February and March of a given year
11being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April,
12May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year;
13with the return for July, August and September of a given year
14being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for
15October, November and December of a given year being due by

22following year.
23    Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
24substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
25returns.
26    Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning

 

 

HB5167- 53 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

9thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds the
10selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman shall
11also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from the
12purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which he
13refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct
14the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from
15any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation Tax, retailers'
16occupation tax or use tax which such serviceman may be required
17to pay or remit to the Department, as shown by such return,
18provided that the amount of the tax to be deducted shall
19previously have been remitted to the Department by such
20serviceman. If the serviceman shall not previously have
21remitted the amount of such tax to the Department, he shall be
22entitled to no deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to
23the purchaser.
24    Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also include

5return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file
6returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax
7Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
8Acts on the one form.
9    Where the serviceman has more than one business registered
10with the Department under separate registration hereunder,

1personal property transferred. The selling price of each item
2of tangible personal property transferred as an incident of a
3sale of service may be shown as a distinct and separate item on
4the serviceman's billing to the service customer. If the
5selling price is not so shown, the selling price of the

24thereafter. If, at any time, however, the tax under this Act on
25sales of gasohol, as defined in the Use Tax Act, is imposed at
26the rate of 1.25%, then the tax imposed by this Act applies to

 

 

HB5167- 64 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

17of 1.25%, then the tax imposed by this Act applies to 100% of
18the proceeds of sales of biodiesel blends with no less than 1%
19and no more than 10% biodiesel made during that time.
20    With respect to 100% biodiesel, as defined in the Use Tax
21Act, and biodiesel blends, as defined in the Use Tax Act, with
22more than 10% but no more than 99% biodiesel material, the tax
23imposed by this Act does not apply to the proceeds of the
24selling price of property transferred as an incident to the
25sale of service on or after July 1, 2003 and on or before

12an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax
13liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such
14transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise required
15to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or

HB5167- 111 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
2of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
3trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
4tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
5amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
6such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
7due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
8fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
9identification of the property sold; such other information as
10is required in Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle Code, and

15name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
16price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
17traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer

20the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
21deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
22the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
23transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
24the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that
25such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
26claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a

 

 

HB5167- 112 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
2information as the Department may reasonably require.
3    Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
4than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
5being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
6than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
7return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
8Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
9the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
10tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
11titling or registration is required) if the Department and such
12agency or State officer determine that this procedure will
13expedite the processing of applications for title or
14registration.
15    With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
16shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
17satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
18the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
19Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
20receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
21satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
22purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State officer
23with whom, he must title or register the tangible personal
24property that is involved (if titling or registration is
25required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
26Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or registration

 

 

HB5167- 113 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1to such tangible personal property.
2    No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
3Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
4retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
5evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
6is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
7paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
8Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
9mandate of this paragraph.
10    If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
11wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
12the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
13retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
14paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
15of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
16being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
17the information required by the transaction reporting return
18and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
19the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
20determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
21and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
22credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
23with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
24provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
25the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
26same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted

 

 

HB5167- 114 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

 

 

HB5167- 115 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on
2which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of
3retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by
4transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount

5actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
6Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
7of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
8calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
9the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the

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

 

 

HB5167- 118 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

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

1govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
2payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
3monthly basis.
4    The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
52001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
6quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
7is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
8prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
9excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
10calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
11required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
12Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
13month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
14during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to the
15effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985, each payment
16shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the taxpayer's
17actual liability under Section 2d. If the month during which
18such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
191986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
20taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the
21taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
22preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax
23liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each
24payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
25actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
26liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year.

1The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
2against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
3that month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case
4may be. Once applicable, the requirement of the making of
5quarter monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this
6paragraph shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly
7prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2 complete
8calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter
9monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
10required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
11interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has
12previously made payments for that month in excess of the
13minimum payments previously due.
14    The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October
151, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
16make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
17who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
18prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that average in
19excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete

21required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
22Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
23month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
24shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
25liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
26the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of

 

 

HB5167- 121 -LRB097 17825 HLH 63042 b

1the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
2final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
3filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
4Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
5monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
6shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
7collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
8(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
9lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
10average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
11each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
12quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly
13payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
14taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
15difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
16payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
17previously due.
18    If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
19taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
20Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
21shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
22requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
23memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
24credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
25the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
26Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,

2prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
3taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
4subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
5the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
6Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
7regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
8subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
9taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
10and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
11of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
12due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
13interest on such difference.
14    If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
15Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
16to the Department under this Act for the month which the
17taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
18taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
