Illinois Compiled Statutes

Information maintained by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

The term shall include units containing parts that may be folded, collapsed, or telescoped when being towed and that may be expected to provide additional cubic capacity, and that are designed to be joined into one integral unit capable of being separated again into the components for repeated towing. The term excludes campers and recreational vehicles. Mobile homes and manufactured homes in mobile home parks must be assessed and taxed as chattel. Mobile homes and manufactured homes outside of mobile home parks must be assessed and taxed as real property whether or not such mobile homes and manufactured homes are affixed to a permanent foundation as defined in Section 5-5 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act, and whether or not such mobile homes and manufactured homes are real property as defined in Section 5-35 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act. The words "mobile home" and "manufactured home" are synonymous for the purposes of this Act. Any such structure located outside of a mobile home park shall not be assessed and taxed as chattel, but must be assessed and taxed as real property as defined by Section 1-130 of the Property Tax Code. All mobile homes and manufactured homes located inside mobile home parks must be taxed according to this Act. Mobile homes and manufactured homes located on a dealer's lot for resale purposes or as a temporary office shall not be subject to this tax.
    (b) Mobile homes and manufactured homes that (i) are located outside of mobile home parks and (ii) are taxed under this Act on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly must continue to be taxed under this Act and shall not be assessed and taxed as real property until the home is sold, transferred, or relocated to a different parcel of land outside of a mobile home park. If a mobile home or manufactured home described in this subsection (b) is sold, transferred, or relocated to a different parcel of land outside of a mobile home park, then the home must be assessed and taxed as real property whether or not the mobile home or manufactured home is affixed to a permanent foundation as defined in Section 5-5 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act and whether or not the mobile home or manufactured home is real property as defined in Section 5-35 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act. Mobile homes and manufactured homes that are located outside of mobile home parks and assessed and taxed as real property on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly must continue to be assessed and taxed as real property whether or not the mobile homes and manufactured homes are affixed to a permanent foundation as defined in Section 5-5 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act or installed on permanent foundations and whether or not the mobile homes and manufactured homes are real property as defined in Section 5-35 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act. If a mobile or manufactured home that is located outside of a mobile home park is relocated to a mobile home park, the home must be taxed according to the Mobile Home Local Services Tax Act. The owner of a mobile home or manufactured home that is located outside of a mobile home park may file a request with the county that the home be assessed and taxed as real property.
    (c) Mobile homes and manufactured homes that are located in mobile home parks must be taxed according to this Act.

    (35 ILCS 515/4) (from Ch. 120, par. 1204)
    Sec. 4. The owner of each inhabited mobile home or manufactured home located in this State, but not located inside of a mobile home park, on the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 96th General Assembly shall, within 30 days after such date, record with the Office of the Recorder in the county where the mobile home or manufactured home is located a mobile home registration form containing the information hereinafter specified, subject to the county's recording fees. Mobile home park operators shall forward a copy of the mobile home registration form provided in Section 12 of "An Act to provide for, license and regulate mobile homes and mobile home parks and to repeal an Act named herein", approved September 8, 1971, as amended, to the township assessor, if any, or to Supervisor of Assessments or county assessor if there is no township assessor, or to the county assessor in those counties in which a county assessor is elected pursuant to Section 3-45 of the Property Tax Code, within 5 days of the entry of a mobile home into such park. The owner of a mobile home or manufactured home not located in a mobile home park, other than a mobile home or manufactured home with respect to which the requirements of Section 5-30 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act and the requirements of Section 3-116.1 or Section 3-116.2 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, as applicable, have been satisfied unless with respect to the same manufactured home there has been recorded an affidavit of severance pursuant to Section 5-50 of the Conveyance and Encumbrance of Manufactured Homes as Real Property and Severance Act, shall, within 30 days after initial placement of such mobile home or manufactured home in any county and within 30 days after movement of such mobile home or manufactured home to a new location, record with the Office of the Recorder in the county where the mobile home or manufactured home is located a mobile home registration showing the name and address of the owner and every occupant of the mobile home or manufactured home, the location of the mobile home or manufactured home, the year of manufacture, and the square feet of floor space contained in such mobile home or manufactured home together with the date that the mobile home or manufactured home became inhabited, was initially installed and set up in the county, or was moved to a new location. Such registration shall also include the license number of such mobile home or manufactured home and of the towing vehicle, if there be any, and the State issuing such licenses, subject to the county's recording fees. In the case of a mobile home or manufactured home not located in a mobile home park, the registration shall be signed by the owner or occupant of the mobile home or manufactured home. Failure to record the registration shall not prevent the home from being assessed and taxed as real property. It is the duty of each township assessor, if any, and each Supervisor of Assessments or county assessor if there is no township assessor, or the county assessor in those counties in which a county assessor is elected pursuant to Section 3-45 of the Property Tax Code, to require timely filing of a properly completed registration for each mobile home or manufactured home located in a mobile home park in his or her township or county, as the case may be. Any person furnishing misinformation for purposes of registration or failing to record a required registration is guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. This Section applies only when the tax permitted by Section 3 has been imposed on mobile homes and manufactured homes located inside mobile home parks.

    Sec. 6. Computation, certification, and distribution of tax. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, within 60 days of receipt of each registration form, the county clerk or, in counties in which a county assessor is elected pursuant to Section 3-45 of the Property Tax Code, the county assessor shall compute the tax due, as provided in Section 3, and certify the tax to the county treasurer who shall mail the tax bill to the owner of such mobile home at the time he receives the certification or on the annual billing date, whichever occurs later. If the registration form is accompanied by a receipt for privilege taxes paid in Illinois for the current tax year, no further privilege tax shall be imposed for the remainder of the current tax year. If the mobile home is initially harbored after the annual liability date, as provided in Section 3 of this Act, the county clerk or county assessor shall reduce such tax 1/12 for each month that has passed since such annual liability date. A mobile home harbored after the first day of such month shall be considered to have been harbored for the entire month for the purposes of this Section. Thereafter, for taxable years prior to taxable year 2003, except for the year 1976, the county clerk or county assessor shall compute such tax as of the first day of June of each year and certify the tax to the county treasurer. For taxable year 2003 and thereafter, the county clerk or county assessor shall compute the tax as of the first day of March of each year and certify the tax to the county treasurer. Such tax shall be due and payable to the county treasurer within 60 days after the treasurer mails the tax bill to the address of record. The first tax bill mailed for taxable year 2003 shall include the following notice: "The manner in which delinquent taxes on mobile homes are collected has been changed by the enactment of the Mobile Home Local Services Tax Enforcement Act. Failure to pay this tax can result in a penalty of $25 per month." The county treasurer shall distribute such taxes to the local taxing districts within the boundaries of which such mobile homes are located, in the same proportion as the property taxes collectible for each such taxing district in the prior year.
    In order to effect the change of the annual billing date and the date of liability, provided for by this amendatory Act of 1975, the county clerk shall compute such tax as of July 1, 1976, for the 1/2 year period from July 1, 1976, through December 31, 1976, at 1/2 the amount of the annual tax. The tax for such period shall be certified, billed, collected and distributed in the same manner as is provided in this Section as taxes for a full year, and shall be subject to a proportionate reduction if the mobile home is initially harbored after July 1, 1976 and before January 1, 1977.

If the tax bill does not show the name of the correct owner, the person whose name appears as owner on the bill may file an affidavit with the county board of assessors, supervisor of assessments or county assessor so stating and identifying the correct owner, if known. Upon the filing of an affidavit as provided in this Section, the county clerk or, in counties in which a county assessor is elected pursuant to Section 3-45 of the Property Tax Code, the county assessor shall issue a corrected bill and shall so indicate on his records.

35 ILCS 515/7.5

    (35 ILCS 515/7.5)
    Sec. 7.5. Exemption for veterans with disabilities.
    (a) Beginning on January 1, 2004, a mobile home owned and used exclusively by a veteran with a disability or the spouse or unmarried surviving spouse of the veteran as a home, is exempt from the tax imposed under this Act.
    Beginning with the 2015 tax year, the exemption also applies to housing that is specifically constructed or adapted to suit a qualifying veteran's disability if the housing or adaptations are donated by a charitable organization, the veteran has been approved to receive funds for the purchase or construction of Specially Adapted Housing under Title 38, Chapter 21, Section 2101 of the United States Code, and the home has been inspected and certified by a licensed home inspector to be in compliance with applicable standards set forth in U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Benefits Administration Pamphlet 26-13 Handbook for Design of Specially Adapted Housing.
    (b) As used in this Section:
    "Veteran with a disability" means a person who has served in the armed forces of the United States and whose disability is of such a nature that the federal government has authorized payment for purchase or construction of specially adapted housing as set forth in the United States Code, Title 38, Chapter 21, Section 2101.
    For purposes of this Section, "charitable organization" means any benevolent, philanthropic, patriotic, or eleemosynary entity that solicits and collects funds for charitable purposes and includes each local, county, or area division of that charitable organization.
    "Unmarried surviving spouse" means the surviving spouse of the veteran at any time after the death of the veteran during which the surviving spouse is not married.
    (c) Eligibility for this exemption must be reestablished on an annual basis by certification from the Illinois Department of Veterans' Affairs to the county clerk of the county in which the exempt mobile home is located. The county clerk shall forward a copy of the certification to local assessing officials.

35 ILCS 515/8

    (35 ILCS 515/8) (from Ch. 120, par. 1208)
    Sec. 8. Failure to pay tax; lien. If any local services tax imposed by this Act is not paid when due, the county treasurer of the county in which the mobile home is located shall have a lien on the mobile home for the amount of the tax, addition to the tax, penalty and interest due. The treasurer shall notify the taxpayer in writing of the existence of the lien. Such lien shall terminate (i) unless the county treasurer files with the county recorder of the county in which the mobile home is located a notice of lien within one year of such tax due date or (ii) if the county treasurer applies for judgment and order of sale for delinquent taxes on mobile homes pursuant to the provisions of the Mobile Home Local Services Tax Enforcement Act and the taxes are sold. From the time of the filing, the amount set forth in the certificate also constitutes a lien upon all property of the taxpayer then owned by him or thereafter acquired by him in the period before the expiration of the lien. Such liens have the same force, effect and priority as a judgment lien and continue for 10 years from the date of the recording unless sooner released or otherwise discharged. The county treasurer may, at any time, release all or any portion of the property subject to any lien provided for in this Act or subordinate the lien to other liens if he determines that the taxes are sufficiently secured by a lien or other property of the taxpayer or that the release or subordination of the lien will not endanger or jeopardize the collection of the taxes.
    If the owner of a mobile home upon which the tax has not been paid does not make payment within 6 months after a lien has been filed, civil action may be instituted by the collector for the amount of the tax, plus interest, penalties and costs. If sale of the property is ordered, the court may direct the sale to be made in cash or on such terms as it may deem in the best interests of all parties. The court may direct that such sale be held by the sheriff or in open court.

Except as otherwise provided in this Section, for taxable year 2003 and thereafter, if any local services tax, or part thereof, imposed by this Act is not paid on or before the due date for such tax, the taxpayer shall be required to pay a penalty of $25 per month, or any portion thereof, not to exceed $100. In counties with a population of more than 700,000 and less than 900,000, if any local services tax, or part thereof, imposed by this Act is not paid on or before the due date for such tax, the taxpayer shall be required to pay a penalty of $25 per month, or any portion thereof, not to exceed the lesser of (i) $100 or (ii) 50% of the original tax imposed. In all counties, if such failure to pay such tax is the result of fraud, there shall be added to the tax as a penalty an amount equal to 50% of the deficiency.
