15Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of 6.25% of
16either the selling price or the fair market value, if any, of
17the tangible personal property. In all cases where property
18functionally used or consumed is the same as the property that
19was purchased at retail, then the tax is imposed on the selling
20price of the property. In all cases where property
21functionally used or consumed is a by-product or waste product

3means the price at which property would change hands between a
4willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any
5compulsion to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge
6of the relevant facts. The fair market value shall be
7established by Illinois sales by the taxpayer of the same
8property as that functionally used or consumed, or if there
9are no such sales by the taxpayer, then comparable sales or
10purchases of property of like kind and character in Illinois.

11 Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,
12and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency
13of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect
14the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the
15amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time

18January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5
19per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to

14the same property.
15 Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
16conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
17wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
18extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
19filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor
20vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required

26twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file

HB0438- 10 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b

2be filed on forms prescribed by the Department and shall
3furnish such information as the Department may reasonably

11State during the preceding calendar month shall, instead of
12reporting and paying tax on aviation fuel as otherwise
13required by this Section, report and pay such tax on a separate
14aviation fuel tax return. The requirements related to the
15return shall be as otherwise provided in this Section.
16Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Act to the

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

HB0438- 18 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
2Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
3the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
4accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
5the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
6all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
7taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
8be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
9credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
10liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
11 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
12return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
13the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
14authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
15with the return for January, February, and March of a given
16year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
17April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
18such year; with the return for July, August and September of a
19given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the
20return for October, November and December of a given year
21being due by January 20 of the following year.
22 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or
23quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
24liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the
25Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual
26basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20

HB0438- 19 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1of the following year.
2 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
3substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as
4monthly returns.
5 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
6the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
7case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
8which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
9such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
10Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
11business.
12 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
13aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
14an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this
15Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal
16property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be
17prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return
18for each such item of tangible personal property which the
19retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a
20retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers
21transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
22trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
23trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer
24of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
25more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer
26to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as

HB0438- 20 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may
2report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor
3vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the
4Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
5return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means
6a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section
73-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal
8watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
9 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
10aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
11an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the
12business of leasing or renting such items and who, in
13connection with such business, sells any such item to a
14retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any
15other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to
16meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting
17the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles,
18or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the
19Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
20return form on or before the 20th of the month following the
21month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any
22other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed
23under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the
24manner and form as required by the Department.
25 The transaction reporting return in the case of motor
26vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with

HB0438- 21 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the
2Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
3Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller;
4the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the
5selling price 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
11price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
12such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
13purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
14evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
15if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
16sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such
17other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the
18Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the
19Department may reasonably require.
20 The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
21and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
22name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
23price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
24traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
25for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
26extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for

HB0438- 22 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
2deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
3price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
4such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
5purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
6evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
7if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
8sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
9such other information as the Department may reasonably
10require.
11 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
12than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
13being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
14than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
15return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
16that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
17Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
18officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
19titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
20if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
21that this procedure will expedite the processing of
22applications for title or registration.
23 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
24shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
25satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
26the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the

HB0438- 23 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
2(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied
3that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
4may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
5whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
6that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
7support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
8certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
9tangible personal property.
10 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
11Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
12retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
13evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
14is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
15paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
16Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
17mandate of this paragraph.
18 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
19wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
20of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
21retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
22paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
23of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
24being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
25the information required by the transaction reporting return
26and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to

HB0438- 24 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
2determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
3and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
4credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
5with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
6provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
7the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
8same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
9if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
10 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
11selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
12the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
13property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
14the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
15purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When
16filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
17to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax
18so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax
19which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
20Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax
21to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
22such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
23amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
24deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
25purchaser.
26 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also

HB0438- 25 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
2covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible
3personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
4but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
5from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
6remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
7return.
8 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
9Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
10return which will enable retailers, who are required to file
11returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
12Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
13Acts on the one form.
14 Where the retailer has more than one business registered
15with the Department under separate registration under this
16Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a
17single return covering all such registered businesses, but
18shall file separate returns for each such registered business.

21due on the return shall be deemed assessed.

10the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
11deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
12price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
13such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
14purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
15evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
16if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
17sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
18such other information as the Department may reasonably
19require.
20 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
21than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
22being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
23than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
24return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
25Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
26the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the

HB0438- 119 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
2titling or registration is required) if the Department and
3such agency or State officer determine that this procedure
4will expedite the processing of applications for title or
5registration.
6 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
7shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
8satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
9the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
10Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
11receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
12satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
13purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State
14officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible
15personal property that is involved (if titling or registration
16is required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
17Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or
18registration to such tangible personal property.
19 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
20Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
21retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
22evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
23is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
24paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
25Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
26mandate of this paragraph.

HB0438- 120 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
2wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
3of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before
4the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has
5not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the
6fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
7being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
8the information required by the transaction reporting return
9and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
10the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
11determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
12and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
13credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
14with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
15provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
16the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
17same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
18if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
19 Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
20period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
21returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
22subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
23may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
24receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
25return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
26with respect to such receipts.

HB0438- 121 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1 Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
2behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
3vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
4accredited agent of such corporation.
5 Where the seller is a limited liability company, the
6return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
7be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent
8of the limited liability company.
9 Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing
10the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
11return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
12Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
13on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
14whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
15retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
16preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
17data to the Department on request. The discount under this
18Section is not allowed for the 1.25% portion of taxes paid on
19aviation fuel that is subject to the revenue use requirements
20of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133. Any prepayment made
21pursuant to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the
22amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the
23case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction
24by transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such
25discount shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead
26of when such retailer files his periodic return. The discount

HB0438- 122 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1allowed under this Section is allowed only for returns that
2are filed in the manner required by this Act. The Department
3may disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of
4registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but
5only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
6registration has become final.
7 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
8tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
9Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
10Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
11remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
12$10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
13quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
14month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
15during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
16payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
17last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.
18On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average
19monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act, the
20Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service
21Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to
22be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
23$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
24quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
25month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
26during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make

HB0438- 123 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
2last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.
3If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began
4prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount
5equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month
6or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the
7average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department
8for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the
9month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability
10in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax
11liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985 and
12prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount
13equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
14month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
15calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during
16which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
17January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment
18shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
19liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability
20for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month
21during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
22January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or
23after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal
24to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
2525% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of
26the preceding year. If the month during which such tax

HB0438- 124 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and
2prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount
3equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
4month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar
5month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual
6liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount
7of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
8final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month.
9Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
10the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
11taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000
12or more as determined in the manner provided above shall
13continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
14the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
15quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
16month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
17taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
18computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
19calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
20taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
21the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
22to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
23reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000
24threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
25Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
26On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement

HB0438- 125 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
2taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000
3or more as determined in the manner provided above shall
4continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
5the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
6quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
7month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such
8taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
9computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
10calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a
11taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
12the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
13to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
14reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000
15threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
16Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
17The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status
18unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not
19likely to be long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is
20not paid at the time or in the amount required by this Section,
21then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest
22on the difference between the minimum amount due as a payment
23and the amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and
24timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously
25made payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
26minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.

HB0438- 126 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
2govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
3payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
4monthly basis.
5 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
62001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
7quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
8is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
9prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
10excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
11calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
12required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
13Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
14month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
15during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to
16September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221),
17each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
18taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
19during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
20January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
2122.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
2227.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month
23of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such
24tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987,
25each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
26taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the

HB0438- 127 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
2preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments
3shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
4taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or
5Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
6requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
7Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until
8such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
9the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less.
10If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or
11in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for
12penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as
13the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in
14excess of the minimum payments previously due.
15 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after
16October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is
17required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
18any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to
19collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid
20taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the
21preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return
22with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make
23payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
24last day of the month during which the liability is incurred.
25Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
26taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the

HB0438- 128 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
2preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments
3shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
4taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or
5Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
6requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
7Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the
8taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections 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
12liability to the Department as computed for each calendar
13quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
14than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid
15at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be
16liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except
17insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that
18month in excess of the minimum payments previously due.
19 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
20taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
21Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
22shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
23requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
24memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
25credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
26the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax

HB0438- 129 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
1Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
2in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
3prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
4taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
5subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
6the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
7Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
8regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
9subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
10taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's
112.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or
121.75% of the difference between the credit taken and that
13actually due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
14and interest on such difference.
15 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
16Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
17to the Department under this Act for the month which the
18taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
19taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
20 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall

19the amount of such sales to the Department and to make a daily
20payment of the full amount of tax due. The Department shall
21impose this requirement when it finds that there is a
22significant risk of loss of revenue to the State at such an
23exhibition or event. Such a finding shall be based on evidence
24that a substantial number of concessionaires or other sellers
25who are not residents of Illinois will be engaging in the
26business of selling tangible personal property at retail at

HB0438- 149 -LRB102 03730 HLH 13743 b
