| 13 |  supervision of the State, political
subdivision, or  | ||||||
| 14 |  municipality collecting those monies, or during fiscal  | ||||||
| 15 |  year 2012 only for the purposes of a grant not to exceed  | ||||||

| 15 | eff. 6-19-13; 98-674, eff. 6-30-14.)
 | ||||||
| 16 |  Section 5-10. The Use Tax Act is amended by changing  | ||||||
| 17 | Section 9 as follows:
 | ||||||
| 18 |  (35 ILCS 105/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.9) | ||||||
| 19 |  Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,  | ||||||
| 20 | and
trailers that are required to be registered with an agency  | ||||||
| 21 | of this State,
each retailer
required or authorized to collect  | ||||||
| 22 | the tax imposed by this Act shall pay
to the Department the  | ||||||
| 23 | amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided)
at the time  | ||||||
| 24 | when he is required to file his return for the period during
 | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | which such tax was collected, less a discount of 2.1% prior to
 | ||||||
| 2 | January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and after January 1, 1990, or $5  | ||||||
| 3 | per calendar
year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to  | ||||||
| 4 | reimburse the retailer
for expenses incurred in collecting the  | ||||||
| 5 | tax, keeping records, preparing
and filing returns, remitting  | ||||||
| 6 | the tax and supplying data to the
Department on request. In the  | ||||||
| 7 | case of retailers who report and pay the
tax on a transaction  | ||||||
| 8 | by transaction basis, as provided in this Section,
such  | ||||||
| 9 | discount shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead  | ||||||
| 10 | of
when such retailer files his periodic return. The Department  | ||||||
| 11 | may disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of  | ||||||
| 12 | registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but  | ||||||
| 13 | only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of  | ||||||
| 14 | registration has become final. A retailer need not remit
that  | ||||||
| 15 | part of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is  | ||||||
| 16 | required
to remit and does remit the tax imposed by the  | ||||||
| 17 | Retailers' Occupation
Tax Act, with respect to the sale of the  | ||||||
| 18 | same property. | ||||||
| 19 |  Where such tangible personal property is sold under a  | ||||||
| 20 | conditional
sales contract, or under any other form of sale  | ||||||
| 21 | wherein the payment of
the principal sum, or a part thereof, is  | ||||||
| 22 | extended beyond the close of
the period for which the return is  | ||||||
| 23 | filed, the retailer, in collecting
the tax (except as to motor  | ||||||
| 24 | vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and
trailers that are required  | ||||||
| 25 | to be registered with an agency of this State),
may collect for  | ||||||
| 26 | each
tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | the selling
price actually received during such tax return  | ||||||
| 2 | period. | ||||||
| 3 |  Except as provided in this Section, on or before the  | ||||||
| 4 | twentieth day of each
calendar month, such retailer shall file  | ||||||
| 5 | a return for the preceding
calendar month. Such return shall be  | ||||||
| 6 | filed on forms prescribed by the
Department and shall furnish  | ||||||
| 7 | such information as the Department may
reasonably require. | ||||||
| 8 |  The Department may require returns to be filed on a  | ||||||
| 9 | quarterly basis.
If so required, a return for each calendar  | ||||||
| 10 | quarter shall be filed on or
before the twentieth day of the  | ||||||
| 11 | calendar month following the end of such
calendar quarter. The  | ||||||
| 12 | taxpayer shall also file a return with the
Department for each  | ||||||
| 13 | of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
before  | ||||||
| 14 | the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: | ||||||
| 15 |   1. The name of the seller; | ||||||
| 16 |   2. The address of the principal place of business from  | ||||||
| 17 |  which he engages
in the business of selling tangible  | ||||||
| 18 |  personal property at retail in this State; | ||||||
| 19 |   3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by him  | ||||||
| 20 |  during the
preceding calendar month from sales of tangible  | ||||||
| 21 |  personal property by him
during such preceding calendar  | ||||||
| 22 |  month, including receipts from charge and
time sales, but  | ||||||
| 23 |  less all deductions allowed by law; | ||||||
| 24 |   4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this  | ||||||
| 25 |  Act; | ||||||
| 26 |   5. The amount of tax due; | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |   5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and | ||||||
| 2 |   6. Such other reasonable information as the Department  | ||||||
| 3 |  may
require. | ||||||
| 4 |  If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after  | ||||||
| 5 | the proper notice
and demand for signature by the Department,  | ||||||
| 6 | the return shall be considered
valid and any amount shown to be  | ||||||
| 7 | due on the return shall be deemed assessed. | ||||||
| 8 |  Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average  | ||||||
| 9 | monthly tax
liability of $150,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 10 | payments required by rules of the
Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 11 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer
who has  | ||||||
| 12 | an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 13 | all
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 14 | funds transfer.
Beginning October 1, 1995, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 15 | an average monthly tax liability
of $50,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 16 | all payments required by rules of the Department
by electronic  | ||||||
| 17 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 2000, a taxpayer who has
 | ||||||
| 18 | an annual tax liability of $200,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 19 | payments required by
rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 20 | funds transfer. The term "annual tax
liability" shall be the  | ||||||
| 21 | sum of the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and
under all  | ||||||
| 22 | other State and local occupation and use tax laws administered  | ||||||
| 23 | by the
Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year.  | ||||||
| 24 | The term "average
monthly tax liability" means
the sum of the  | ||||||
| 25 | taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other  | ||||||
| 26 | State
and local occupation and use tax laws administered by the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Department, for the
immediately preceding calendar year  | ||||||
| 2 | divided by 12.
Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 3 | a tax liability in the
amount set forth in subsection (b) of  | ||||||
| 4 | Section 2505-210 of the Department of
Revenue Law shall make  | ||||||
| 5 | all payments required by rules of the Department by
electronic  | ||||||
| 6 | funds transfer. | ||||||
| 7 |  Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the  | ||||||
| 8 | Department shall notify
all taxpayers required to make payments  | ||||||
| 9 | by electronic funds transfer. All
taxpayers required to make  | ||||||
| 10 | payments by electronic funds transfer shall make
those payments  | ||||||
| 11 | for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. | ||||||
| 12 |  Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic  | ||||||
| 13 | funds transfer may
make payments by electronic funds transfer  | ||||||
| 14 | with the permission of the
Department. | ||||||
| 15 |  All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds  | ||||||
| 16 | transfer and any
taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make  | ||||||
| 17 | payments by electronic funds transfer
shall make those payments  | ||||||
| 18 | in the manner authorized by the Department. | ||||||
| 19 |  The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to  | ||||||
| 20 | effectuate a
program of electronic funds transfer and the  | ||||||
| 21 | requirements of this Section. | ||||||
| 22 |  Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly  | ||||||
| 23 | tax liability
to the Department
under this Act, the Retailers'  | ||||||
| 24 | Occupation Tax Act, the Service
Occupation Tax Act, the Service  | ||||||
| 25 | Use Tax Act was $10,000 or more
during
the preceding 4 complete  | ||||||
| 26 | calendar quarters, he shall file a return with the
Department  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | each month by the 20th day of the month next following the  | ||||||
| 2 | month
during which such tax liability is incurred and shall  | ||||||
| 3 | make payments to the
Department on or before the 7th, 15th,  | ||||||
| 4 | 22nd and last day of the month
during which such liability is  | ||||||
| 5 | incurred.
On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 6 | average monthly tax liability
to the Department under this Act,  | ||||||
| 7 | the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
the
Service Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 8 | Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more
during the  | ||||||
| 9 | preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return  | ||||||
| 10 | with
the Department each month by the 20th day of the month  | ||||||
| 11 | next following the month
during which such tax liability is  | ||||||
| 12 | incurred and shall make payment to the
Department on or before  | ||||||
| 13 | the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
month during
which such  | ||||||
| 14 | liability is incurred.
If the month during which such tax
 | ||||||
| 15 | liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each  | ||||||
| 16 | payment shall be
in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
 | ||||||
| 17 | actual liability for the month or an amount set by the  | ||||||
| 18 | Department not to
exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability  | ||||||
| 19 | of the taxpayer to the
Department for the preceding 4 complete  | ||||||
| 20 | calendar quarters (excluding the
month of highest liability and  | ||||||
| 21 | the month of lowest liability in such 4
quarter period). If the  | ||||||
| 22 | month during which such tax liability is incurred
begins on or  | ||||||
| 23 | after January 1, 1985, and prior to January 1, 1987, each
 | ||||||
| 24 | payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 25 | actual liability
for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 26 | 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 shall continue
until such taxpayer's average  | ||||||
| 23 | monthly liability to the Department during
the preceding 4  | ||||||
| 24 | complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
 | ||||||
| 25 | liability and the month of lowest liability) is less than
 | ||||||
| 26 | $9,000, or until
such taxpayer's average monthly liability to  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | the Department as computed for
each calendar quarter of the 4  | ||||||
| 2 | preceding complete calendar quarter period
is less than  | ||||||
| 3 | $10,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the
Department that
a  | ||||||
| 4 | substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred  | ||||||
| 5 | which causes
the taxpayer to anticipate that his average  | ||||||
| 6 | monthly tax liability for the
reasonably foreseeable future  | ||||||
| 7 | will fall below the $10,000 threshold
stated above, then
such  | ||||||
| 8 | taxpayer
may petition the Department for change in such  | ||||||
| 9 | taxpayer's reporting status.
On and after October 1, 2000, once  | ||||||
| 10 | applicable, the requirement of the making
of quarter monthly  | ||||||
| 11 | payments to the Department shall continue until such
taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 12 | average monthly liability to the Department during the  | ||||||
| 13 | preceding 4
complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of  | ||||||
| 14 | highest liability and the
month of lowest liability) is less  | ||||||
| 15 | than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
average monthly liability  | ||||||
| 16 | to the Department as computed for each calendar
quarter of the  | ||||||
| 17 | 4 preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
 | ||||||
| 18 | $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a  | ||||||
| 19 | substantial
change in the taxpayer's business has occurred  | ||||||
| 20 | which causes the taxpayer to
anticipate that his average  | ||||||
| 21 | monthly tax liability for the reasonably
foreseeable future  | ||||||
| 22 | will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated above, then
such  | ||||||
| 23 | taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such  | ||||||
| 24 | taxpayer's
reporting status.
The Department shall change such  | ||||||
| 25 | taxpayer's reporting status unless it
finds that such change is  | ||||||
| 26 | seasonal in nature and not likely to be long
term. If any such  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in
the  | ||||||
| 2 | amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be  | ||||||
| 3 | liable for
penalties and interest on
the difference between the  | ||||||
| 4 | minimum amount due and the amount of such
quarter monthly  | ||||||
| 5 | payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the
 | ||||||
| 6 | taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to the  | ||||||
| 7 | Department in
excess of the minimum payments previously due as  | ||||||
| 8 | provided in this Section.
The Department shall make reasonable  | ||||||
| 9 | rules and regulations to govern the
quarter monthly payment  | ||||||
| 10 | amount and quarter monthly payment dates for
taxpayers who file  | ||||||
| 11 | on other than a calendar monthly basis. | ||||||
| 12 |  If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds  | ||||||
| 13 | the taxpayer's
liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'  | ||||||
| 14 | Occupation Tax Act, the Service
Occupation Tax Act and the  | ||||||
| 15 | Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original
monthly return,  | ||||||
| 16 | the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit
memorandum  | ||||||
| 17 | no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
 | ||||||
| 18 | memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department  | ||||||
| 19 | in payment of
tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the  | ||||||
| 20 | taxpayer to the Department
or be assigned by the taxpayer to a  | ||||||
| 21 | similar taxpayer under this Act, the
Retailers' Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 22 | Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the
Service Use Tax Act,  | ||||||
| 23 | in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to
be  | ||||||
| 24 | prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess  | ||||||
| 25 | payment is
shown on an original monthly return and is made  | ||||||
| 26 | after December 31, 1986, no
credit memorandum shall be issued,  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | unless requested by the taxpayer. If no
such request is made,  | ||||||
| 2 | the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against
tax  | ||||||
| 3 | liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the  | ||||||
| 4 | Department
under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,  | ||||||
| 5 | the Service Occupation
Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in  | ||||||
| 6 | accordance with reasonable rules and
regulations prescribed by  | ||||||
| 7 | the Department. If the Department subsequently
determines that  | ||||||
| 8 | all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to
the  | ||||||
| 9 | taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall  | ||||||
| 10 | be
reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the  | ||||||
| 11 | credit taken and
that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be  | ||||||
| 12 | liable for penalties and
interest on such difference. | ||||||
| 13 |  If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly  | ||||||
| 14 | return and if the
retailer's average monthly tax liability to  | ||||||
| 15 | the Department
does not exceed $200, the Department may  | ||||||
| 16 | authorize his returns to be
filed on a quarter annual basis,  | ||||||
| 17 | with the return for January, February,
and March of a given  | ||||||
| 18 | year being due by April 20 of such year; with the
return for  | ||||||
| 19 | April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
such  | ||||||
| 20 | year; with the return for July, August and September of a given
 | ||||||
| 21 | year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return  | ||||||
| 22 | for
October, November and December of a given year being due by  | ||||||
| 23 | January 20
of the following year. | ||||||
| 24 |  If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or  | ||||||
| 25 | quarterly
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax  | ||||||
| 26 | liability to the
Department does not exceed $50, the Department  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | may authorize his returns to
be filed on an annual basis, with  | ||||||
| 2 | the return for a given year being due by
January 20 of the  | ||||||
| 3 | following year. | ||||||
| 4 |  Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and  | ||||||
| 5 | substance,
shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly  | ||||||
| 6 | returns. | ||||||
| 7 |  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning  | ||||||
| 8 | the time
within which a retailer may file his return, in the  | ||||||
| 9 | case of any retailer
who ceases to engage in a kind of business  | ||||||
| 10 | which makes him responsible
for filing returns under this Act,  | ||||||
| 11 | such retailer shall file a final
return under this Act with the  | ||||||
| 12 | Department not more than one month after
discontinuing such  | ||||||
| 13 | business. | ||||||
| 14 |  In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
 | ||||||
| 15 | aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with  | ||||||
| 16 | an agency of
this State, every
retailer selling this kind of  | ||||||
| 17 | tangible personal property shall file,
with the Department,  | ||||||
| 18 | upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
Department, a  | ||||||
| 19 | separate return for each such item of tangible personal
 | ||||||
| 20 | property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
 | ||||||
| 21 | transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor  | ||||||
| 22 | vehicles or
trailers transfers more than
one aircraft,  | ||||||
| 23 | watercraft, motor
vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,  | ||||||
| 24 | watercraft, motor vehicle or
trailer retailer for the purpose  | ||||||
| 25 | of resale
or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor  | ||||||
| 26 | vehicles, or trailers
transfers more than one aircraft,  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a
purchaser for use as  | ||||||
| 2 | a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 3-55 of
this  | ||||||
| 3 | Act, then
that seller may report the transfer of all the
 | ||||||
| 4 | aircraft, watercraft, motor
vehicles
or trailers involved in  | ||||||
| 5 | that transaction to the Department on the same
uniform
 | ||||||
| 6 | invoice-transaction reporting return form.
For purposes of  | ||||||
| 7 | this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or
Class
4  | ||||||
| 8 | watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration  | ||||||
| 9 | and Safety Act,
a
personal watercraft, or any boat equipped  | ||||||
| 10 | with an inboard motor. | ||||||
| 11 |  The transaction reporting return in the case of motor  | ||||||
| 12 | vehicles
or trailers that are required to be registered with an  | ||||||
| 13 | agency of this
State, shall
be the same document as the Uniform  | ||||||
| 14 | Invoice referred to in Section 5-402
of the Illinois Vehicle  | ||||||
| 15 | Code and must show the name and address of the
seller; the name  | ||||||
| 16 | and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
price  | ||||||
| 17 | including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
 | ||||||
| 18 | property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the  | ||||||
| 19 | traded-in
tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to  | ||||||
| 20 | which Section 2 of
this Act allows an exemption for the value  | ||||||
| 21 | of traded-in property; the
balance payable after deducting such  | ||||||
| 22 | trade-in allowance from the total
selling price; the amount of  | ||||||
| 23 | tax due from the retailer with respect to
such transaction; the  | ||||||
| 24 | amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the
retailer on  | ||||||
| 25 | such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is
not  | ||||||
| 26 | due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | fact);
the place and date of the sale; a sufficient  | ||||||
| 2 | identification of the
property sold; such other information as  | ||||||
| 3 | is required in Section 5-402 of
the Illinois Vehicle Code, and  | ||||||
| 4 | such other information as the Department
may reasonably  | ||||||
| 5 | require. | ||||||
| 6 |  The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
 | ||||||
| 7 | and aircraft must show
the name and address of the seller; the  | ||||||
| 8 | name and address of the
purchaser; the amount of the selling  | ||||||
| 9 | price including the amount allowed
by the retailer for  | ||||||
| 10 | traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by
the retailer  | ||||||
| 11 | for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to
the  | ||||||
| 12 | extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for  | ||||||
| 13 | the
value of traded-in property; the balance payable after  | ||||||
| 14 | deducting such
trade-in allowance from the total selling price;  | ||||||
| 15 | the amount of tax due
from the retailer with respect to such  | ||||||
| 16 | transaction; the amount of tax
collected from the purchaser by  | ||||||
| 17 | the retailer on such transaction (or
satisfactory evidence that  | ||||||
| 18 | such tax is not due in that particular
instance, if that is  | ||||||
| 19 | claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
sale, a  | ||||||
| 20 | sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
 | ||||||
| 21 | information as the Department may reasonably require. | ||||||
| 22 |  Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later  | ||||||
| 23 | than 20
days after the date of delivery of the item that is  | ||||||
| 24 | being sold, but may
be filed by the retailer at any time sooner  | ||||||
| 25 | than that if he chooses to
do so. The transaction reporting  | ||||||
| 26 | return and tax remittance or proof of
exemption from the tax  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to
the  | ||||||
| 2 | Department by way of the State agency with which, or State  | ||||||
| 3 | officer
with whom, the tangible personal property must be  | ||||||
| 4 | titled or registered
(if titling or registration is required)  | ||||||
| 5 | if the Department and such
agency or State officer determine  | ||||||
| 6 | that this procedure will expedite the
processing of  | ||||||
| 7 | applications for title or registration. | ||||||
| 8 |  With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer  | ||||||
| 9 | shall remit
the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit  | ||||||
| 10 | satisfactory evidence that
the sale is not taxable if that is  | ||||||
| 11 | the case), to the Department or its
agents, whereupon the  | ||||||
| 12 | Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a
tax receipt  | ||||||
| 13 | (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
satisfied  | ||||||
| 14 | that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
 | ||||||
| 15 | may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with  | ||||||
| 16 | whom, he must
title or register the tangible personal property  | ||||||
| 17 | that is involved (if
titling or registration is required) in  | ||||||
| 18 | support of such purchaser's
application for an Illinois  | ||||||
| 19 | certificate or other evidence of title or
registration to such  | ||||||
| 20 | tangible personal property. | ||||||
| 21 |  No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this  | ||||||
| 22 | Act
precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the  | ||||||
| 23 | retailer, from
obtaining his certificate of title or other  | ||||||
| 24 | evidence of title or
registration (if titling or registration  | ||||||
| 25 | is required) upon satisfying
the Department that such user has  | ||||||
| 26 | paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to
the retailer. The  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out
the  | ||||||
| 2 | mandate of this paragraph. | ||||||
| 3 |  If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer  | ||||||
| 4 | wants the
transaction reporting return filed and the payment of  | ||||||
| 5 | tax or proof of
exemption made to the Department before the  | ||||||
| 6 | retailer is willing to take
these actions and such user has not  | ||||||
| 7 | paid the tax to the retailer, such
user may certify to the fact  | ||||||
| 8 | of such delay by the retailer, and may
(upon the Department  | ||||||
| 9 | being satisfied of the truth of such certification)
transmit  | ||||||
| 10 | the information required by the transaction reporting return
 | ||||||
| 11 | and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to  | ||||||
| 12 | the
Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption  | ||||||
| 13 | determination, in
which event the transaction reporting return  | ||||||
| 14 | and tax remittance (if a
tax payment was required) shall be  | ||||||
| 15 | credited by the Department to the
proper retailer's account  | ||||||
| 16 | with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75%
discount  | ||||||
| 17 | provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
 | ||||||
| 18 | the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the  | ||||||
| 19 | same
amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted  | ||||||
| 20 | if the tax had
been remitted to the Department by the retailer. | ||||||
| 21 |  Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the  | ||||||
| 22 | selling price
of tangible personal property which he sells and  | ||||||
| 23 | the purchaser
thereafter returns such tangible personal  | ||||||
| 24 | property and the retailer
refunds the selling price thereof to  | ||||||
| 25 | the purchaser, such retailer shall
also refund, to the  | ||||||
| 26 | purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser.
When filing  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to
the  | ||||||
| 2 | purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax so  | ||||||
| 3 | refunded
by him to the purchaser from any other use tax which  | ||||||
| 4 | such retailer may
be required to pay or remit to the  | ||||||
| 5 | Department, as shown by such return,
if the amount of the tax  | ||||||
| 6 | to be deducted was previously remitted to the
Department by  | ||||||
| 7 | such retailer. If the retailer has not previously
remitted the  | ||||||
| 8 | amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
 | ||||||
| 9 | deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the  | ||||||
| 10 | purchaser. | ||||||
| 11 |  Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also  | ||||||
| 12 | include
(for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax  | ||||||
| 13 | covered by such
return upon the selling price of tangible  | ||||||
| 14 | personal property purchased by
him at retail from a retailer,  | ||||||
| 15 | but as to which the tax imposed by this
Act was not collected  | ||||||
| 16 | from the retailer filing such return, and such
retailer shall  | ||||||
| 17 | remit the amount of such tax to the Department when
filing such  | ||||||
| 18 | return. | ||||||
| 19 |  If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the  | ||||||
| 20 | Department
may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint  | ||||||
| 21 | return which will
enable retailers, who are required to file  | ||||||
| 22 | returns hereunder and also
under the Retailers' Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 23 | Act, to furnish all the return
information required by both  | ||||||

| 1 |  Section 5-15. The Service Use Tax Act is amended by  | ||||||
| 2 | changing Section 9 as follows:
 | ||||||
| 3 |  (35 ILCS 110/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.39) | ||||||
| 4 |  Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect  | ||||||
| 5 | the tax
herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount  | ||||||
| 6 | of such tax
(except as otherwise provided) at the time when he  | ||||||
| 7 | is required to file
his return for the period during which such  | ||||||
| 8 | tax was collected, less a
discount of 2.1% prior to January 1,  | ||||||
| 9 | 1990 and 1.75% on and after January 1,
1990, or $5 per calendar  | ||||||
| 10 | year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to
reimburse the  | ||||||
| 11 | serviceman for expenses incurred in collecting the tax,
keeping  | ||||||
| 12 | records, preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and
 | ||||||
| 13 | supplying data to the Department on request. The Department may  | ||||||
| 14 | disallow the discount for servicemen whose certificate of  | ||||||
| 15 | registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but  | ||||||
| 16 | only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of  | ||||||
| 17 | registration has become final. A serviceman need not remit
that  | ||||||
| 18 | part of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is  | ||||||
| 19 | required to
pay and does pay the tax imposed by the Service  | ||||||
| 20 | Occupation Tax Act with
respect to his sale of service  | ||||||
| 21 | involving the incidental transfer by him of
the same property. | ||||||
| 22 |  Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or  | ||||||
| 23 | before the twentieth
day of each calendar month, such  | ||||||
| 24 | serviceman shall file a return for the
preceding calendar month  | ||||||
| 25 | in accordance with reasonable Rules and
Regulations to be  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | promulgated by the Department. Such return shall be
filed on a  | ||||||
| 2 | form prescribed by the Department and shall contain such
 | ||||||
| 3 | information as the Department may reasonably require. | ||||||
| 4 |  The Department may require returns to be filed on a  | ||||||
| 5 | quarterly basis.
If so required, a return for each calendar  | ||||||
| 6 | quarter shall be filed on or
before the twentieth day of the  | ||||||
| 7 | calendar month following the end of such
calendar quarter. The  | ||||||
| 8 | taxpayer shall also file a return with the
Department for each  | ||||||
| 9 | of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
before  | ||||||
| 10 | the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: | ||||||
| 11 |   1. The name of the seller; | ||||||
| 12 |   2. The address of the principal place of business from  | ||||||
| 13 |  which he engages
in business as a serviceman in this State; | ||||||
| 14 |   3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by him  | ||||||
| 15 |  during the
preceding calendar month, including receipts  | ||||||
| 16 |  from charge and time sales,
but less all deductions allowed  | ||||||
| 17 |  by law; | ||||||
| 18 |   4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this  | ||||||
| 19 |  Act; | ||||||
| 20 |   5. The amount of tax due; | ||||||
| 21 |   5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and | ||||||
| 22 |   6. Such other reasonable information as the Department  | ||||||
| 23 |  may
require. | ||||||
| 24 |  If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after  | ||||||
| 25 | the proper notice
and demand for signature by the Department,  | ||||||
| 26 | the return shall be considered
valid and any amount shown to be  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | due on the return shall be deemed assessed. | ||||||
| 2 |  Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average  | ||||||
| 3 | monthly tax
liability of $150,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 4 | payments required by rules of
the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 5 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a
taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 6 | an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall

| 15 | sum of
the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all  | ||||||
| 16 | other State and local
occupation and use tax laws administered  | ||||||
| 17 | by the Department, for the immediately
preceding calendar year.
 | ||||||
| 18 | The term "average monthly tax
liability" means the sum of the  | ||||||
| 19 | taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and
under all other  | ||||||
| 20 | State and local occupation and use tax laws administered by the
 | ||||||
| 21 | Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year  | ||||||
| 22 | divided by 12.
Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 23 | a tax liability in the
amount set forth in subsection (b) of  | ||||||
| 24 | Section 2505-210 of the Department of
Revenue Law shall make  | ||||||

| 26 | funds transfer. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the  | ||||||
| 2 | Department shall

| 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 |  If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly  | ||||||
| 17 | return and
if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to  | ||||||
| 18 | the Department
does not exceed $200, the Department may  | ||||||
| 19 | authorize his returns to be
filed on a quarter annual basis,  | ||||||
| 20 | with the return for January, February
and March of a given year  | ||||||
| 21 | being due by April 20 of such year; with the
return for April,  | ||||||
| 22 | May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
such year;  | ||||||
| 23 | with the return for July, August and September of a given
year  | ||||||
| 24 | being due by October 20 of such year, and with the return for
 | ||||||
| 25 | October, November and December of a given year being due by  | ||||||
| 26 | January 20
of the following year. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly  | ||||||
| 2 | or quarterly
return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax  | ||||||
| 3 | liability to the Department
does not exceed $50, the Department  | ||||||
| 4 | may authorize his returns to be
filed on an annual basis, with  | ||||||
| 5 | the return for a given year being due by
January 20 of the  | ||||||
| 6 | following year. | ||||||
| 7 |  Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and  | ||||||
| 8 | substance,
shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly  | ||||||
| 9 | returns. | ||||||
| 10 |  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning  | ||||||
| 11 | the time
within which a serviceman may file his return, in the  | ||||||
| 12 | case of any
serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of  | ||||||
| 13 | business which makes him
responsible for filing returns under  | ||||||
| 14 | this Act, such serviceman shall
file a final return under this  | ||||||
| 15 | Act with the Department not more than 1
month after  | ||||||
| 16 | discontinuing such business. | ||||||
| 17 |  Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the  | ||||||
| 18 | selling price of
property which he sells and the purchaser  | ||||||
| 19 | thereafter returns such
property and the serviceman refunds the  | ||||||
| 20 | selling price thereof to the
purchaser, such serviceman shall  | ||||||
| 21 | also refund, to the purchaser, the tax
so collected from the  | ||||||
| 22 | purchaser. When filing his return for the period
in which he  | ||||||
| 23 | refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct
 | ||||||
| 24 | the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from  | ||||||
| 25 | any other
Service Use Tax, Service Occupation Tax, retailers'  | ||||||
| 26 | occupation tax or
use tax which such serviceman may be required  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | to pay or remit to the
Department, as shown by such return,  | ||||||
| 2 | provided that the amount of the tax
to be deducted shall  | ||||||
| 3 | previously have been remitted to the Department by
such  | ||||||
| 4 | serviceman. If the serviceman shall not previously have  | ||||||
| 5 | remitted
the amount of such tax to the Department, he shall be  | ||||||
| 6 | entitled to no
deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to  | ||||||
| 7 | the purchaser. | ||||||
| 8 |  Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also include  | ||||||
| 9 | the total
tax upon the selling price of tangible personal  | ||||||
| 10 | property purchased for use
by him as an incident to a sale of  | ||||||
| 11 | service, and such serviceman shall remit
the amount of such tax  | ||||||
| 12 | to the Department when filing such return. | ||||||
| 13 |  If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the  | ||||||
| 14 | Department
may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint  | ||||||
| 15 | return which will
enable servicemen, who are required to file  | ||||||
| 16 | returns hereunder and also
under the Service Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 17 | Act, to furnish all the return
information required by both  | ||||||
| 18 | Acts on the one form. | ||||||
| 19 |  Where the serviceman has more than one business registered  | ||||||
| 20 | with the
Department under separate registration hereunder,  | ||||||
| 21 | such serviceman shall
not file each return that is due as a  | ||||||
| 22 | single return covering all such
registered businesses, but  | ||||||
| 23 | shall file separate returns for each such
registered business. | ||||||
| 24 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 25 | pay into
the State and Local Tax Reform Fund, a special fund in  | ||||||
| 26 | the State Treasury,
the net revenue realized for the preceding  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | month from the 1% tax on sales
of food for human consumption  | ||||||
| 2 | which is to be consumed off the premises
where it is sold  | ||||||
| 3 | (other than alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food
which has  | ||||||
| 4 | been prepared for immediate consumption) and prescription and
 | ||||||
| 5 | nonprescription medicines, drugs, medical appliances and  | ||||||
| 6 | insulin, urine
testing materials, syringes and needles used by  | ||||||
| 7 | diabetics. | ||||||
| 8 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 9 | pay into
the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 20% of the  | ||||||
| 10 | net revenue realized
for the preceding month from the 6.25%  | ||||||
| 11 | general rate on transfers of
tangible personal property, other  | ||||||
| 12 | than tangible personal property which is
purchased outside  | ||||||
| 13 | Illinois at retail from a retailer and which is titled or
 | ||||||
| 14 | registered by an agency of this State's government. | ||||||
| 15 |  Beginning August 1, 2000, each
month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 16 | pay into the
State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the  | ||||||
| 17 | net revenue realized for the
preceding
month from the 1.25%  | ||||||
| 18 | rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. | ||||||
| 19 |  Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 20 | pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to  | ||||||
| 21 | an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the  | ||||||
| 22 | net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of  | ||||||
| 23 | candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had  | ||||||
| 24 | been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that  | ||||||
| 25 | are now taxed at 6.25%.  | ||||||
| 26 |  Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall pay  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds  | ||||||
| 2 | collected under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service  | ||||||
| 3 | Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an  | ||||||
| 4 | amount equal to the average monthly deficit in the Underground  | ||||||
| 5 | Storage Tank Fund during the prior year, as certified annually  | ||||||
| 6 | by the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total  | ||||||
| 7 | payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act,  | ||||||
| 8 | the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the  | ||||||
| 9 | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in  | ||||||
| 10 | any State fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the "average  | ||||||
| 11 | monthly deficit" shall be equal to the difference between the  | ||||||
| 12 | average monthly claims for payment by the fund and the average  | ||||||
| 13 | monthly revenues deposited into the fund, excluding payments  | ||||||
| 14 | made pursuant to this paragraph.  | ||||||
| 15 |  Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys  | ||||||
| 16 | received by the Department under the Use Tax Act, this Act, the  | ||||||
| 17 | Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 18 | Act, each month the Department shall deposit $500,000 into the  | ||||||
| 19 | State Crime Laboratory Fund.  | ||||||
| 20 |  Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department  | ||||||
| 21 | pursuant
to this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the  | ||||||
| 22 | Build
Illinois Fund and (b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on  | ||||||
| 23 | and after July 1,
1989, 3.8% thereof shall be paid into the  | ||||||
| 24 | Build Illinois Fund; provided,
however, that if in any fiscal  | ||||||
| 25 | year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or
3.8%, as the case  | ||||||
| 26 | may be, of the moneys received by the Department and
required  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | to be paid into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3  | ||||||
| 2 | of
the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax  | ||||||
| 3 | Act, Section 9
of the Service Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the  | ||||||
| 4 | Service Occupation Tax
Act, such Acts being hereinafter called  | ||||||
| 5 | the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate
of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case  | ||||||
| 6 | may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the
"Tax Act  | ||||||
| 7 | Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 8 | Fund
from the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be  | ||||||
| 9 | less than the
Annual Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3  | ||||||
| 10 | of the Retailers'
Occupation Tax Act), an amount equal to the  | ||||||
| 11 | difference shall be immediately
paid into the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 12 | Fund from other moneys received by the
Department pursuant to  | ||||||
| 13 | the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the
last  | ||||||
| 14 | business day of any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount  | ||||||
| 15 | required
to be deposited into the Build Illinois Bond Account  | ||||||
| 16 | in the Build Illinois
Fund during such month and (2) the amount  | ||||||
| 17 | transferred during such month to
the Build Illinois Fund from  | ||||||
| 18 | the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund
shall have been less  | ||||||
| 19 | than 1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount
equal to  | ||||||
| 20 | the difference shall be immediately paid into the Build  | ||||||
| 21 | Illinois
Fund from other moneys received by the Department  | ||||||
| 22 | pursuant to the Tax Acts;
and, further provided, that in no  | ||||||
| 23 | event shall the payments required under
the preceding proviso  | ||||||
| 24 | result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois
Fund  | ||||||
| 25 | pursuant to this clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of  | ||||||
| 26 | the
greater of (i) the Tax Act Amount or (ii) the Annual  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Specified Amount for
such fiscal year; and, further provided,  | ||||||
| 2 | that the amounts payable into the
Build Illinois Fund under  | ||||||
| 3 | this clause (b) shall be payable only until such
time as the  | ||||||
| 4 | aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture securing
 | ||||||
| 5 | Bonds issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 6 | Bond Act is
sufficient, taking into account any future  | ||||||
| 7 | investment income, to fully
provide, in accordance with such  | ||||||
| 8 | indenture, for the defeasance of or the
payment of the  | ||||||
| 9 | principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds

and all fees and costs payable with respect  | ||||||
| 12 | thereto, all as certified by
the Director of the
Bureau of the  | ||||||
| 13 | Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If
on  | ||||||
| 14 | the last business day of
any month in which Bonds are  | ||||||
| 15 | outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois
Bond Act, the  | ||||||
| 16 | aggregate of the moneys deposited in the Build Illinois Bond
 | ||||||
| 17 | Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month shall be less  | ||||||
| 18 | than the
amount required to be transferred in such month from  | ||||||
| 19 | the Build Illinois
Bond Account to the Build Illinois Bond  | ||||||
| 20 | Retirement and Interest Fund
pursuant to Section 13 of the  | ||||||
| 21 | Build Illinois Bond Act, an amount equal to
such deficiency  | ||||||
| 22 | shall be immediately paid from other moneys received by the
 | ||||||
| 23 | Department pursuant to the Tax Acts to the Build Illinois Fund;  | ||||||
| 24 | provided,
however, that any amounts paid to the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 25 | Fund in any fiscal
year pursuant to this sentence shall be  | ||||||
| 26 | deemed to constitute payments
pursuant to clause (b) of the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1 | preceding sentence and shall reduce the
amount otherwise  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Act and required to be deposited into the  | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

For purposes of this  | ||||||

and shall not be made. | ||||||
| 6 |  Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue  | ||||||
| 7 | collected by the State

 | ||||||
| 13 |  Section 5-20. The Service Occupation Tax Act is amended by  | ||||||
| 14 | changing Section 9 as follows:
 | ||||||
| 15 |  (35 ILCS 115/9) (from Ch. 120, par. 439.109) | ||||||
| 16 |  Sec. 9. Each serviceman required or authorized to collect  | ||||||
| 17 | the tax
herein imposed shall pay to the Department the amount  | ||||||
| 18 | of such tax at the
time when he is required to file his return  | ||||||
| 19 | for the period during which
such tax was collectible, less a  | ||||||
| 20 | discount of 2.1% prior to
January 1, 1990, and 1.75% on and  | ||||||
| 21 | after January 1, 1990, or
$5 per calendar year, whichever is  | ||||||
| 22 | greater, which is allowed to reimburse
the serviceman for  | ||||||
| 23 | expenses incurred in collecting the tax, keeping
records,  | ||||||
| 24 | preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | data
to the Department on request. The Department may disallow  | ||||||
| 2 | the discount for servicemen whose certificate of registration  | ||||||
| 3 | is revoked at the time the return is filed, but only if the  | ||||||
| 4 | Department's decision to revoke the certificate of  | ||||||
| 5 | registration has become final. | ||||||
| 6 |  Where such tangible personal property is sold under a  | ||||||
| 7 | conditional
sales contract, or under any other form of sale  | ||||||
| 8 | wherein the payment of
the principal sum, or a part thereof, is  | ||||||
| 9 | extended beyond the close of
the period for which the return is  | ||||||
| 10 | filed, the serviceman, in collecting
the tax may collect, for  | ||||||
| 11 | each tax return period, only the tax applicable
to the part of  | ||||||
| 12 | the selling price actually received during such tax return
 | ||||||
| 13 | period. | ||||||
| 14 |  Except as provided hereinafter in this Section, on or  | ||||||
| 15 | before the twentieth
day of each calendar month, such  | ||||||
| 16 | serviceman shall file a
return for the preceding calendar month  | ||||||
| 17 | in accordance with reasonable
rules and regulations to be  | ||||||
| 18 | promulgated by the Department of Revenue.
Such return shall be  | ||||||
| 19 | filed on a form prescribed by the Department and
shall contain  | ||||||
| 20 | such information as the Department may reasonably require. | ||||||
| 21 |  The Department may require returns to be filed on a  | ||||||
| 22 | quarterly basis.
If so required, a return for each calendar  | ||||||
| 23 | quarter shall be filed on or
before the twentieth day of the  | ||||||
| 24 | calendar month following the end of such
calendar quarter. The  | ||||||
| 25 | taxpayer shall also file a return with the
Department for each  | ||||||
| 26 | of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
before  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: | ||||||
| 2 |   1. The name of the seller; | ||||||
| 3 |   2. The address of the principal place of business from  | ||||||
| 4 |  which he engages
in business as a serviceman in this State; | ||||||
| 5 |   3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by him  | ||||||
| 6 |  during the
preceding calendar month, including receipts  | ||||||
| 7 |  from charge and time sales,
but less all deductions allowed  | ||||||
| 8 |  by law; | ||||||
| 9 |   4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this  | ||||||
| 10 |  Act; | ||||||
| 11 |   5. The amount of tax due; | ||||||
| 12 |   5-5. The signature of the taxpayer; and | ||||||
| 13 |   6. Such other reasonable information as the Department  | ||||||
| 14 |  may
require. | ||||||
| 15 |  If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after  | ||||||
| 16 | the proper notice
and demand for signature by the Department,  | ||||||
| 17 | the return shall be considered
valid and any amount shown to be  | ||||||
| 18 | due on the return shall be deemed assessed. | ||||||
| 19 |  Prior to October 1, 2003, and on and after September 1,  | ||||||
| 20 | 2004 a serviceman may accept a Manufacturer's
Purchase Credit  | ||||||
| 21 | certification
from a purchaser in satisfaction
of Service Use  | ||||||
| 22 | Tax as provided in Section 3-70 of the
Service Use Tax Act if  | ||||||
| 23 | the purchaser provides
the
appropriate
documentation as  | ||||||
| 24 | required by Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax Act.
A  | ||||||
| 25 | Manufacturer's Purchase Credit certification, accepted prior  | ||||||
| 26 | to October 1,
2003 or on or after September 1, 2004 by a  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | serviceman as
provided in Section 3-70 of the Service Use Tax  | ||||||
| 2 | Act, may be used by that
serviceman to satisfy Service  | ||||||
| 3 | Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in
the  | ||||||
| 4 | certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts subject to  | ||||||
| 5 | tax from a
qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase  | ||||||
| 6 | Credit reported on any
original or amended return
filed under
 | ||||||
| 7 | this Act after October 20, 2003 for reporting periods prior to  | ||||||
| 8 | September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's Purchase  | ||||||
| 9 | Credit reported on annual returns due on or after January 1,  | ||||||
| 10 | 2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to September 1, 2004.
 | ||||||
| 11 | No Manufacturer's
Purchase Credit may be used after September  | ||||||
| 12 | 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to
satisfy any
tax liability  | ||||||
| 13 | imposed under this Act, including any audit liability. | ||||||
| 14 |  If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to
the  | ||||||
| 15 | Department does not exceed $200, the Department may authorize  | ||||||
| 16 | his
returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis, with the  | ||||||
| 17 | return for
January, February and March of a given year being  | ||||||
| 18 | due by April 20 of
such year; with the return for April, May  | ||||||
| 19 | and June of a given year being
due by July 20 of such year; with  | ||||||
| 20 | the return for July, August and
September of a given year being  | ||||||
| 21 | due by October 20 of such year, and with
the return for  | ||||||
| 22 | October, November and December of a given year being due
by  | ||||||
| 23 | January 20 of the following year. | ||||||
| 24 |  If the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to
the  | ||||||
| 25 | Department does not exceed $50, the Department may authorize  | ||||||
| 26 | his
returns to be filed on an annual basis, with the return for  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | a given year
being due by January 20 of the following year. | ||||||
| 2 |  Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and  | ||||||
| 3 | substance,
shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly  | ||||||
| 4 | returns. | ||||||
| 5 |  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning  | ||||||
| 6 | the time within
which a serviceman may file his return, in the  | ||||||
| 7 | case of any serviceman who
ceases to engage in a kind of  | ||||||
| 8 | business which makes him responsible for filing
returns under  | ||||||
| 9 | this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this
 | ||||||
| 10 | Act with the Department not more than 1 month after  | ||||||
| 11 | discontinuing such
business. | ||||||
| 12 |  Beginning October 1, 1993, a taxpayer who has an average  | ||||||
| 13 | monthly tax
liability of $150,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 14 | payments required by rules of the
Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 15 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer
who has  | ||||||
| 16 | an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 17 | all
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 18 | funds transfer.
Beginning October 1, 1995, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 19 | an average monthly tax liability
of $50,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 20 | all payments required by rules of the Department
by electronic  | ||||||
| 21 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 2000, a taxpayer who has
 | ||||||
| 22 | an annual tax liability of $200,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 23 | payments required by
rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 24 | funds transfer. The term "annual tax
liability" shall be the  | ||||||
| 25 | sum of the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and
under all  | ||||||
| 26 | other State and local occupation and use tax laws administered  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | by the
Department, for the immediately preceding calendar year.  | ||||||
| 2 | The term "average
monthly tax liability" means
the sum of the  | ||||||
| 3 | taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all other  | ||||||
| 4 | State
and local occupation and use tax laws administered by the  | ||||||
| 5 | Department, for the
immediately preceding calendar year  | ||||||
| 6 | divided by 12.
Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 7 | a tax liability in the
amount set forth in subsection (b) of  | ||||||
| 8 | Section 2505-210 of the Department of
Revenue Law shall make  | ||||||
| 9 | all payments required by rules of the Department by
electronic  | ||||||
| 10 | funds transfer. | ||||||
| 11 |  Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the  | ||||||
| 12 | Department shall
notify all taxpayers required to make payments  | ||||||
| 13 | by electronic funds transfer.
All taxpayers required to make  | ||||||
| 14 | payments by electronic funds transfer shall make
those payments  | ||||||
| 15 | for a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. | ||||||
| 16 |  Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic  | ||||||
| 17 | funds transfer may
make payments by electronic funds transfer  | ||||||
| 18 | with the
permission of the Department. | ||||||
| 19 |  All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds  | ||||||
| 20 | transfer and
any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make  | ||||||
| 21 | payments by electronic funds
transfer shall make those payments  | ||||||
| 22 | in the manner authorized by the Department. | ||||||
| 23 |  The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to  | ||||||
| 24 | effectuate a
program of electronic funds transfer and the  | ||||||
| 25 | requirements of this Section. | ||||||
| 26 |  Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | selling price of
tangible personal property which he sells and  | ||||||
| 2 | the purchaser thereafter returns
such tangible personal  | ||||||
| 3 | property and the serviceman refunds the
selling price thereof  | ||||||
| 4 | to the purchaser, such serviceman shall also refund,
to the  | ||||||
| 5 | purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When
filing  | ||||||
| 6 | his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
 | ||||||
| 7 | purchaser, the serviceman may deduct the amount of the tax so  | ||||||
| 8 | refunded by
him to the purchaser from any other Service  | ||||||
| 9 | Occupation Tax, Service Use
Tax, Retailers' Occupation Tax or  | ||||||
| 10 | Use Tax which such serviceman may be
required to pay or remit  | ||||||
| 11 | to the Department, as shown by such return,
provided that the  | ||||||
| 12 | amount of the tax to be deducted shall previously have
been  | ||||||
| 13 | remitted to the Department by such serviceman. If the  | ||||||
| 14 | serviceman shall
not previously have remitted the amount of  | ||||||
| 15 | such tax to the Department,
he shall be entitled to no  | ||||||
| 16 | deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax
to the purchaser. | ||||||
| 17 |  If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the  | ||||||
| 18 | Department
may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint  | ||||||
| 19 | return which will
enable servicemen, who are required to file  | ||||||
| 20 | returns
hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax  | ||||||
| 21 | Act, the Use
Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, to furnish all  | ||||||
| 22 | the return
information required by all said Acts on the one  | ||||||
| 23 | form. | ||||||
| 24 |  Where the serviceman has more than one business
registered  | ||||||
| 25 | with the Department under separate registrations hereunder,
 | ||||||
| 26 | such serviceman shall file separate returns for each
registered  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | business. | ||||||
| 2 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 3 | pay into
the Local Government Tax Fund the revenue realized for  | ||||||
| 4 | the
preceding month from the 1% tax on sales of food for human  | ||||||
| 5 | consumption
which is to be consumed off the premises where it  | ||||||
| 6 | is sold (other than
alcoholic beverages, soft drinks and food  | ||||||
| 7 | which has been prepared for
immediate consumption) and  | ||||||
| 8 | prescription and nonprescription medicines,
drugs, medical  | ||||||
| 9 | appliances and insulin, urine testing materials, syringes
and  | ||||||
| 10 | needles used by diabetics. | ||||||
| 11 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 12 | pay into
the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the  | ||||||
| 13 | revenue realized
for the preceding month from the 6.25% general  | ||||||
| 14 | rate. | ||||||
| 15 |  Beginning August 1, 2000, each
month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 16 | pay into the
County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the  | ||||||
| 17 | net revenue realized for the
preceding month from the 1.25%  | ||||||
| 18 | rate on the selling price of motor fuel and
gasohol. | ||||||
| 19 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 20 | pay into
the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the revenue  | ||||||
| 21 | realized for the
preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on  | ||||||
| 22 | transfers of
tangible personal property. | ||||||
| 23 |  Beginning August 1, 2000, each
month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 24 | pay into the
Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue  | ||||||
| 25 | realized for the preceding
month from the 1.25% rate on the  | ||||||
| 26 | selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 2 | pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to  | ||||||
| 3 | an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the  | ||||||
| 4 | net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of  | ||||||
| 5 | candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had  | ||||||
| 6 | been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that  | ||||||
| 7 | are now taxed at 6.25%.  | ||||||
| 8 |  Beginning July 1, 2013, each month the Department shall pay  | ||||||
| 9 | into the Underground Storage Tank Fund from the proceeds  | ||||||
| 10 | collected under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax  | ||||||
| 11 | Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act an amount equal to  | ||||||
| 12 | the average monthly deficit in the Underground Storage Tank  | ||||||
| 13 | Fund during the prior year, as certified annually by the  | ||||||
| 14 | Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, but the total  | ||||||
| 15 | payment into the Underground Storage Tank Fund under this Act,  | ||||||
| 16 | the Use Tax Act, the Service Use Tax Act, and the Retailers'  | ||||||
| 17 | Occupation Tax Act shall not exceed $18,000,000 in any State  | ||||||
| 18 | fiscal year. As used in this paragraph, the "average monthly  | ||||||
| 19 | deficit" shall be equal to the difference between the average  | ||||||
| 20 | monthly claims for payment by the fund and the average monthly  | ||||||
| 21 | revenues deposited into the fund, excluding payments made  | ||||||
| 22 | pursuant to this paragraph.  | ||||||
| 23 |  Beginning July 1, 2015, of the remainder of the moneys  | ||||||
| 24 | received by the Department under the Use Tax Act, the Service  | ||||||
| 25 | Use Tax Act, this Act, and the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,  | ||||||
| 26 | each month the Department shall deposit $500,000 into the State  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Crime Laboratory Fund.  | ||||||
| 2 |  Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department  | ||||||
| 3 | pursuant to
this Act, (a) 1.75% thereof shall be paid into the  | ||||||
| 4 | Build Illinois Fund and
(b) prior to July 1, 1989, 2.2% and on  | ||||||
| 5 | and after July 1, 1989, 3.8% thereof
shall be paid into the  | ||||||
| 6 | Build Illinois Fund; provided, however, that if in
any fiscal  | ||||||
| 7 | year the sum of (1) the aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%, as the case
 | ||||||
| 8 | may be, of the moneys received by the Department and required  | ||||||
| 9 | to be paid
into the Build Illinois Fund pursuant to Section 3  | ||||||
| 10 | of the Retailers'
Occupation Tax Act, Section 9 of the Use Tax  | ||||||
| 11 | Act, Section 9 of the Service
Use Tax Act, and Section 9 of the  | ||||||
| 12 | Service Occupation Tax Act, such Acts
being hereinafter called  | ||||||
| 13 | the "Tax Acts" and such aggregate of 2.2% or 3.8%,
as the case  | ||||||
| 14 | may be, of moneys being hereinafter called the "Tax Act
 | ||||||
| 15 | Amount", and (2) the amount transferred to the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 16 | Fund from the
State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall be  | ||||||
| 17 | less than the Annual
Specified Amount (as defined in Section 3  | ||||||
| 18 | of the Retailers' Occupation Tax
Act), an amount equal to the  | ||||||
| 19 | difference shall be immediately paid into the
Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 20 | Fund from other moneys received by the Department pursuant
to  | ||||||
| 21 | the Tax Acts; and further provided, that if on the last  | ||||||
| 22 | business day of
any month the sum of (1) the Tax Act Amount  | ||||||
| 23 | required to be deposited into
the Build Illinois Account in the  | ||||||
| 24 | Build Illinois Fund during such month and
(2) the amount  | ||||||
| 25 | transferred during such month to the Build Illinois Fund
from  | ||||||
| 26 | the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund shall have been less  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | than
1/12 of the Annual Specified Amount, an amount equal to  | ||||||
| 2 | the difference
shall be immediately paid into the Build  | ||||||
| 3 | Illinois Fund from other moneys
received by the Department  | ||||||
| 4 | pursuant to the Tax Acts; and, further provided,
that in no  | ||||||
| 5 | event shall the payments required under the preceding proviso
 | ||||||
| 6 | result in aggregate payments into the Build Illinois Fund  | ||||||
| 7 | pursuant to this
clause (b) for any fiscal year in excess of  | ||||||
| 8 | the greater of (i) the Tax Act
Amount or (ii) the Annual  | ||||||
| 9 | Specified Amount for such fiscal year; and,
further provided,  | ||||||
| 10 | that the amounts payable into the Build Illinois Fund
under  | ||||||
| 11 | this clause (b) shall be payable only until such time as the
 | ||||||
| 12 | aggregate amount on deposit under each trust indenture securing  | ||||||
| 13 | Bonds
issued and outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois  | ||||||
| 14 | Bond Act is
sufficient, taking into account any future  | ||||||
| 15 | investment income, to fully
provide, in accordance with such  | ||||||
| 16 | indenture, for the defeasance of or the
payment of the  | ||||||
| 17 | principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Bonds
 | ||||||

and all fees and costs payable with respect  | ||||||
| 20 | thereto, all as certified by
the Director of the
Bureau of the  | ||||||
| 21 | Budget (now Governor's Office of Management and Budget). If
on  | ||||||
| 22 | the last business day of
any month in which Bonds are  | ||||||
| 23 | outstanding pursuant to the Build Illinois
Bond Act, the  | ||||||
| 24 | aggregate of the moneys deposited
in the Build Illinois Bond  | ||||||
| 25 | Account in the Build Illinois Fund in such month
shall be less  | ||||||
| 26 | than the amount required to be transferred in such month from

| 2 | Retirement and
Interest Fund pursuant to Section 13 of the  | ||||||

| 9 | preceding
sentence and shall reduce the amount otherwise  | ||||||
| 10 | payable for such fiscal year
pursuant to clause (b) of the  | ||||||
| 11 | preceding sentence. The moneys received by
the Department  | ||||||

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

| 25 |  Section 5-25. The Retailers' Occupation Tax Act is amended  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | by changing Section 3 as follows:
 | ||||||
| 2 |  (35 ILCS 120/3) (from Ch. 120, par. 442)
 | ||||||
| 3 |  Sec. 3. Except as provided in this Section, on or before  | ||||||
| 4 | the twentieth
day of each calendar month, every person engaged  | ||||||
| 5 | in the business of
selling tangible personal property at retail  | ||||||
| 6 | in this State during the
preceding calendar month shall file a  | ||||||
| 7 | return with the Department, stating: | ||||||
| 8 |   1. The name of the seller; | ||||||
| 9 |   2. His residence address and the address of his  | ||||||
| 10 |  principal place of
business and the address of the  | ||||||
| 11 |  principal place of business (if that is
a different  | ||||||
| 12 |  address) from which he engages in the business of selling
 | ||||||
| 13 |  tangible personal property at retail in this State; | ||||||
| 14 |   3. Total amount of receipts received by him during the  | ||||||
| 15 |  preceding
calendar month or quarter, as the case may be,  | ||||||
| 16 |  from sales of tangible
personal property, and from services  | ||||||
| 17 |  furnished, by him during such
preceding calendar month or  | ||||||
| 18 |  quarter; | ||||||
| 19 |   4. Total amount received by him during the preceding  | ||||||
| 20 |  calendar month or
quarter on charge and time sales of  | ||||||
| 21 |  tangible personal property, and from
services furnished,  | ||||||
| 22 |  by him prior to the month or quarter for which the return
 | ||||||
| 23 |  is filed; | ||||||
| 24 |   5. Deductions allowed by law; | ||||||
| 25 |   6. Gross receipts which were received by him during the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  preceding
calendar month or quarter and upon the basis of  | ||||||
| 2 |  which the tax is imposed; | ||||||
| 3 |   7. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this  | ||||||
| 4 |  Act; | ||||||
| 5 |   8. The amount of tax due; | ||||||
| 6 |   9. The signature of the taxpayer; and | ||||||
| 7 |   10. Such other reasonable information as the  | ||||||
| 8 |  Department may require. | ||||||
| 9 |  If a taxpayer fails to sign a return within 30 days after  | ||||||
| 10 | the proper notice
and demand for signature by the Department,  | ||||||
| 11 | the return shall be considered
valid and any amount shown to be  | ||||||
| 12 | due on the return shall be deemed assessed. | ||||||
| 13 |  Each return shall be accompanied by the statement of  | ||||||
| 14 | prepaid tax issued
pursuant to Section 2e for which credit is  | ||||||
| 15 | claimed. | ||||||
| 16 |  Prior to October 1, 2003, and on and after September 1,  | ||||||
| 17 | 2004 a retailer may accept a Manufacturer's Purchase
Credit
 | ||||||
| 18 | certification from a purchaser in satisfaction of Use Tax
as  | ||||||
| 19 | provided in Section 3-85 of the Use Tax Act if the purchaser  | ||||||
| 20 | provides the
appropriate documentation as required by Section  | ||||||
| 21 | 3-85
of the Use Tax Act. A Manufacturer's Purchase Credit
 | ||||||
| 22 | certification, accepted by a retailer prior to October 1, 2003  | ||||||
| 23 | and on and after September 1, 2004 as provided
in
Section 3-85  | ||||||
| 24 | of the Use Tax Act, may be used by that retailer to
satisfy  | ||||||
| 25 | Retailers' Occupation Tax liability in the amount claimed in
 | ||||||
| 26 | the certification, not to exceed 6.25% of the receipts
subject  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | to tax from a qualifying purchase. A Manufacturer's Purchase  | ||||||
| 2 | Credit
reported on any original or amended return
filed under
 | ||||||
| 3 | this Act after October 20, 2003 for reporting periods prior to  | ||||||
| 4 | September 1, 2004 shall be disallowed. Manufacturer's  | ||||||
| 5 | Purchaser Credit reported on annual returns due on or after  | ||||||
| 6 | January 1, 2005 will be disallowed for periods prior to  | ||||||
| 7 | September 1, 2004. No Manufacturer's
Purchase Credit may be  | ||||||
| 8 | used after September 30, 2003 through August 31, 2004 to
 | ||||||
| 9 | satisfy any
tax liability imposed under this Act, including any  | ||||||
| 10 | audit liability. | ||||||
| 11 |  The Department may require returns to be filed on a  | ||||||
| 12 | quarterly basis.
If so required, a return for each calendar  | ||||||
| 13 | quarter shall be filed on or
before the twentieth day of the  | ||||||
| 14 | calendar month following the end of such
calendar quarter. The  | ||||||
| 15 | taxpayer shall also file a return with the
Department for each  | ||||||
| 16 | of the first two months of each calendar quarter, on or
before  | ||||||
| 17 | the twentieth day of the following calendar month, stating: | ||||||
| 18 |   1. The name of the seller; | ||||||
| 19 |   2. The address of the principal place of business from  | ||||||
| 20 |  which he engages
in the business of selling tangible  | ||||||
| 21 |  personal property at retail in this State; | ||||||
| 22 |   3. The total amount of taxable receipts received by him  | ||||||
| 23 |  during the
preceding calendar month from sales of tangible  | ||||||
| 24 |  personal property by him
during such preceding calendar  | ||||||
| 25 |  month, including receipts from charge and
time sales, but  | ||||||
| 26 |  less all deductions allowed by law; | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |   4. The amount of credit provided in Section 2d of this  | ||||||
| 2 |  Act; | ||||||
| 3 |   5. The amount of tax due; and | ||||||
| 4 |   6. Such other reasonable information as the Department  | ||||||
| 5 |  may
require. | ||||||
| 6 |  Beginning on October 1, 2003, any person who is not a  | ||||||
| 7 | licensed
distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer,  | ||||||
| 8 | as defined in the Liquor
Control Act of 1934, but is engaged in  | ||||||
| 9 | the business of
selling, at retail, alcoholic liquor
shall file  | ||||||
| 10 | a statement with the Department of Revenue, in a format
and at  | ||||||
| 11 | a time prescribed by the Department, showing the total amount  | ||||||
| 12 | paid for
alcoholic liquor purchased during the preceding month  | ||||||
| 13 | and such other
information as is reasonably required by the  | ||||||
| 14 | Department.
The Department may adopt rules to require
that this  | ||||||
| 15 | statement be filed in an electronic or telephonic format. Such  | ||||||
| 16 | rules
may provide for exceptions from the filing requirements  | ||||||
| 17 | of this paragraph. For
the
purposes of this
paragraph, the term  | ||||||
| 18 | "alcoholic liquor" shall have the meaning prescribed in the
 | ||||||
| 19 | Liquor Control Act of 1934. | ||||||
| 20 |  Beginning on October 1, 2003, every distributor, importing  | ||||||
| 21 | distributor, and
manufacturer of alcoholic liquor as defined in  | ||||||
| 22 | the Liquor Control Act of 1934,
shall file a
statement with the  | ||||||
| 23 | Department of Revenue, no later than the 10th day of the
month  | ||||||
| 24 | for the
preceding month during which transactions occurred, by  | ||||||
| 25 | electronic means,
showing the
total amount of gross receipts  | ||||||
| 26 | from the sale of alcoholic liquor sold or
distributed during
 | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | the preceding month to purchasers; identifying the purchaser to  | ||||||
| 2 | whom it was
sold or
distributed; the purchaser's tax  | ||||||
| 3 | registration number; and such other
information
reasonably  | ||||||
| 4 | required by the Department. A distributor, importing  | ||||||
| 5 | distributor, or manufacturer of alcoholic liquor must  | ||||||
| 6 | personally deliver, mail, or provide by electronic means to  | ||||||
| 7 | each retailer listed on the monthly statement a report  | ||||||
| 8 | containing a cumulative total of that distributor's, importing  | ||||||
| 9 | distributor's, or manufacturer's total sales of alcoholic  | ||||||
| 10 | liquor to that retailer no later than the 10th day of the month  | ||||||
| 11 | for the preceding month during which the transaction occurred.  | ||||||
| 12 | The distributor, importing distributor, or manufacturer shall  | ||||||
| 13 | notify the retailer as to the method by which the distributor,  | ||||||
| 14 | importing distributor, or manufacturer will provide the sales  | ||||||
| 15 | information. If the retailer is unable to receive the sales  | ||||||
| 16 | information by electronic means, the distributor, importing  | ||||||
| 17 | distributor, or manufacturer shall furnish the sales  | ||||||
| 18 | information by personal delivery or by mail. For purposes of  | ||||||
| 19 | this paragraph, the term "electronic means" includes, but is  | ||||||
| 20 | not limited to, the use of a secure Internet website, e-mail,  | ||||||
| 21 | or facsimile. | ||||||
| 22 |  If a total amount of less than $1 is payable, refundable or  | ||||||
| 23 | creditable,
such amount shall be disregarded if it is less than  | ||||||
| 24 | 50 cents and shall be
increased to $1 if it is 50 cents or more. | ||||||
| 25 |  Beginning October 1, 1993,
a taxpayer who has an average  | ||||||
| 26 | monthly tax liability of $150,000 or more shall
make all  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | payments required by rules of the
Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 2 | funds transfer. Beginning October 1, 1994, a taxpayer
who has  | ||||||
| 3 | an average monthly tax liability of $100,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 4 | all
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 5 | funds transfer.
Beginning October 1, 1995, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 6 | an average monthly tax liability
of $50,000 or more shall make  | ||||||
| 7 | all
payments required by rules of the Department by electronic  | ||||||
| 8 | funds transfer.
Beginning October 1, 2000, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 9 | an annual tax liability of
$200,000 or more shall make all  | ||||||
| 10 | payments required by rules of the Department by
electronic  | ||||||
| 11 | funds transfer. The term "annual tax liability" shall be the  | ||||||
| 12 | sum of
the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, and under all  | ||||||
| 13 | other State and local
occupation and use tax laws administered  | ||||||
| 14 | by the Department, for the immediately
preceding calendar year.
 | ||||||
| 15 | The term "average monthly tax liability" shall be the sum of  | ||||||
| 16 | the
taxpayer's liabilities under this
Act, and under all other  | ||||||
| 17 | State and local occupation and use tax
laws administered by the  | ||||||
| 18 | Department, for the immediately preceding calendar
year  | ||||||
| 19 | divided by 12.
Beginning on October 1, 2002, a taxpayer who has  | ||||||
| 20 | a tax liability in the
amount set forth in subsection (b) of  | ||||||
| 21 | Section 2505-210 of the Department of
Revenue Law shall make  | ||||||
| 22 | all payments required by rules of the Department by
electronic  | ||||||
| 23 | funds transfer. | ||||||
| 24 |  Before August 1 of each year beginning in 1993, the  | ||||||
| 25 | Department shall
notify all taxpayers required to make payments  | ||||||
| 26 | by electronic funds
transfer. All taxpayers
required to make  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | payments by electronic funds transfer shall make those
payments  | ||||||
| 2 | for
a minimum of one year beginning on October 1. | ||||||
| 3 |  Any taxpayer not required to make payments by electronic  | ||||||
| 4 | funds transfer may
make payments by electronic funds transfer  | ||||||
| 5 | with
the permission of the Department. | ||||||
| 6 |  All taxpayers required to make payment by electronic funds  | ||||||
| 7 | transfer and
any taxpayers authorized to voluntarily make  | ||||||
| 8 | payments by electronic funds
transfer shall make those payments  | ||||||
| 9 | in the manner authorized by the Department. | ||||||
| 10 |  The Department shall adopt such rules as are necessary to  | ||||||
| 11 | effectuate a
program of electronic funds transfer and the  | ||||||
| 12 | requirements of this Section. | ||||||
| 13 |  Any amount which is required to be shown or reported on any  | ||||||
| 14 | return or
other document under this Act shall, if such amount  | ||||||
| 15 | is not a whole-dollar
amount, be increased to the nearest  | ||||||
| 16 | whole-dollar amount in any case where
the fractional part of a  | ||||||
| 17 | dollar is 50 cents or more, and decreased to the
nearest  | ||||||
| 18 | whole-dollar amount where the fractional part of a dollar is  | ||||||
| 19 | less
than 50 cents. | ||||||
| 20 |  If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly  | ||||||
| 21 | return and if the
retailer's average monthly tax liability to  | ||||||
| 22 | the Department does not exceed
$200, the Department may  | ||||||
| 23 | authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter
annual basis,  | ||||||
| 24 | with the return for January, February and March of a given
year  | ||||||
| 25 | being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April,  | ||||||
| 26 | May and
June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year;  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | with the return for
July, August and September of a given year  | ||||||
| 2 | being due by October 20 of such
year, and with the return for  | ||||||
| 3 | October, November and December of a given
year being due by  | ||||||
| 4 | January 20 of the following year. | ||||||
| 5 |  If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or  | ||||||
| 6 | quarterly
return and if the retailer's average monthly tax  | ||||||
| 7 | liability with the
Department does not exceed $50, the  | ||||||
| 8 | Department may authorize his returns to
be filed on an annual  | ||||||
| 9 | basis, with the return for a given year being due by
January 20  | ||||||
| 10 | of the following year. | ||||||
| 11 |  Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and  | ||||||
| 12 | substance,
shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly  | ||||||
| 13 | returns. | ||||||
| 14 |  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning  | ||||||
| 15 | the time
within which a retailer may file his return, in the  | ||||||
| 16 | case of any retailer
who ceases to engage in a kind of business  | ||||||
| 17 | which makes him responsible
for filing returns under this Act,  | ||||||
| 18 | such retailer shall file a final
return under this Act with the  | ||||||
| 19 | Department not more than one month after
discontinuing such  | ||||||
| 20 | business. | ||||||
| 21 |  Where the same person has more than one business registered  | ||||||
| 22 | with the
Department under separate registrations under this  | ||||||
| 23 | Act, such person may
not file each return that is due as a  | ||||||
| 24 | single return covering all such
registered businesses, but  | ||||||
| 25 | shall file separate returns for each such
registered business. | ||||||
| 26 |  In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
 | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with  | ||||||
| 2 | an agency of
this State, every
retailer selling this kind of  | ||||||
| 3 | tangible personal property shall file,
with the Department,  | ||||||
| 4 | upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the
Department, a  | ||||||
| 5 | separate return for each such item of tangible personal
 | ||||||
| 6 | property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
 | ||||||
| 7 | transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor  | ||||||
| 8 | vehicles or
trailers transfers more than one aircraft,  | ||||||
| 9 | watercraft, motor
vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,  | ||||||
| 10 | watercraft, motor vehicle
retailer or trailer retailer for the  | ||||||
| 11 | purpose of resale
or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft,  | ||||||
| 12 | motor vehicles, or trailers
transfers more than one aircraft,  | ||||||
| 13 | watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a
purchaser for use as  | ||||||
| 14 | a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 2-5 of
this  | ||||||
| 15 | Act, then
that seller may report the transfer of all aircraft,
 | ||||||
| 16 | watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers involved in that  | ||||||
| 17 | transaction to the
Department on the same uniform  | ||||||
| 18 | invoice-transaction reporting return form. For
purposes of  | ||||||
| 19 | this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4
 | ||||||
| 20 | watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration  | ||||||
| 21 | and Safety Act, a
personal watercraft, or any boat equipped  | ||||||
| 22 | with an inboard motor. | ||||||
| 23 |  Any retailer who sells only motor vehicles, watercraft,
 | ||||||
| 24 | aircraft, or trailers that are required to be registered with  | ||||||
| 25 | an agency of
this State, so that all
retailers' occupation tax  | ||||||
| 26 | liability is required to be reported, and is
reported, on such  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise
required  | ||||||
| 2 | to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or
 | ||||||
| 3 | quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall be required  | ||||||
| 4 | to
file returns on an annual basis. | ||||||
| 5 |  The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor  | ||||||
| 6 | vehicles
or trailers that are required to be registered with an  | ||||||
| 7 | agency of this
State, shall
be the same document as the Uniform  | ||||||
| 8 | Invoice referred to in Section 5-402
of The Illinois Vehicle  | ||||||
| 9 | Code and must show the name and address of the
seller; the name  | ||||||
| 10 | and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
price  | ||||||
| 11 | including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
 | ||||||
| 12 | property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the  | ||||||
| 13 | traded-in
tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to  | ||||||
| 14 | which Section 1 of
this Act allows an exemption for the value  | ||||||
| 15 | of traded-in property; the
balance payable after deducting such  | ||||||
| 16 | trade-in allowance from the total
selling price; the amount of  | ||||||
| 17 | tax due from the retailer with respect to
such transaction; the  | ||||||
| 18 | amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the
retailer on  | ||||||
| 19 | such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is
not  | ||||||
| 20 | due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the  | ||||||
| 21 | fact);
the place and date of the sale; a sufficient  | ||||||
| 22 | identification of the
property sold; such other information as  | ||||||
| 23 | is required in Section 5-402 of
The Illinois Vehicle Code, and  | ||||||
| 24 | such other information as the Department
may reasonably  | ||||||
| 25 | require. | ||||||
| 26 |  The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
 | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | or aircraft must show
the name and address of the seller; the  | ||||||
| 2 | name and address of the
purchaser; the amount of the selling  | ||||||
| 3 | price including the amount allowed
by the retailer for  | ||||||
| 4 | traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by
the retailer  | ||||||
| 5 | for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to
the  | ||||||
| 6 | extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for  | ||||||
| 7 | the
value of traded-in property; the balance payable after  | ||||||
| 8 | deducting such
trade-in allowance from the total selling price;  | ||||||
| 9 | the amount of tax due
from the retailer with respect to such  | ||||||
| 10 | transaction; the amount of tax
collected from the purchaser by  | ||||||
| 11 | the retailer on such transaction (or
satisfactory evidence that  | ||||||
| 12 | such tax is not due in that particular
instance, if that is  | ||||||
| 13 | claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
sale, a  | ||||||
| 14 | sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
 | ||||||
| 15 | information as the Department may reasonably require. | ||||||
| 16 |  Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later  | ||||||
| 17 | than 20
days after the day of delivery of the item that is  | ||||||
| 18 | being sold, but may
be filed by the retailer at any time sooner  | ||||||
| 19 | than that if he chooses to
do so. The transaction reporting  | ||||||
| 20 | return and tax remittance or proof of
exemption from the  | ||||||
| 21 | Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department
by way of  | ||||||
| 22 | the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
 | ||||||
| 23 | tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if  | ||||||
| 24 | titling or
registration is required) if the Department and such  | ||||||
| 25 | agency or State
officer determine that this procedure will  | ||||||
| 26 | expedite the processing of
applications for title or  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | registration. | ||||||
| 2 |  With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer  | ||||||
| 3 | shall remit
the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit  | ||||||
| 4 | satisfactory evidence that
the sale is not taxable if that is  | ||||||
| 5 | the case), to the Department or its
agents, whereupon the  | ||||||
| 6 | Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a
use tax  | ||||||
| 7 | receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
 | ||||||
| 8 | satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such  | ||||||
| 9 | purchaser
may submit to the agency with which, or State officer  | ||||||
| 10 | with whom, he must
title or register the tangible personal  | ||||||
| 11 | property that is involved (if
titling or registration is  | ||||||
| 12 | required) in support of such purchaser's
application for an  | ||||||
| 13 | Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or
registration  | ||||||
| 14 | to such tangible personal property. | ||||||
| 15 |  No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this  | ||||||
| 16 | Act
precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the  | ||||||
| 17 | retailer, from
obtaining his certificate of title or other  | ||||||
| 18 | evidence of title or
registration (if titling or registration  | ||||||
| 19 | is required) upon satisfying
the Department that such user has  | ||||||
| 20 | paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to
the retailer. The  | ||||||
| 21 | Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out
the  | ||||||
| 22 | mandate of this paragraph. | ||||||
| 23 |  If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer  | ||||||
| 24 | wants the
transaction reporting return filed and the payment of  | ||||||
| 25 | the tax or proof
of exemption made to the Department before the  | ||||||
| 26 | retailer is willing to
take these actions and such user has not  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | paid the tax to the retailer,
such user may certify to the fact  | ||||||
| 2 | of such delay by the retailer and may
(upon the Department  | ||||||
| 3 | being satisfied of the truth of such certification)
transmit  | ||||||
| 4 | the information required by the transaction reporting return
 | ||||||
| 5 | and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to  | ||||||
| 6 | the
Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption  | ||||||
| 7 | determination, in
which event the transaction reporting return  | ||||||
| 8 | and tax remittance (if a
tax payment was required) shall be  | ||||||
| 9 | credited by the Department to the
proper retailer's account  | ||||||
| 10 | with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75%
discount  | ||||||
| 11 | provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
 | ||||||
| 12 | the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the  | ||||||
| 13 | same
amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted  | ||||||
| 14 | if the tax had
been remitted to the Department by the retailer. | ||||||
| 15 |  Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return  | ||||||
| 16 | period to
purchasers, on account of tangible personal property  | ||||||
| 17 | returned to the
seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under  | ||||||
| 18 | subdivision 5 of his monthly
or quarterly return, as the case  | ||||||
| 19 | may be, in case the
seller had theretofore included the  | ||||||
| 20 | receipts from the sale of such
tangible personal property in a  | ||||||
| 21 | return filed by him and had paid the tax
imposed by this Act  | ||||||
| 22 | with respect to such receipts. | ||||||
| 23 |  Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on  | ||||||
| 24 | behalf of such
corporation shall be signed by the president,  | ||||||
| 25 | vice-president, secretary
or treasurer or by the properly  | ||||||
| 26 | accredited agent of such corporation. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  Where the seller is a limited liability company, the return  | ||||||
| 2 | filed on behalf
of the limited liability company shall be  | ||||||
| 3 | signed by a manager, member, or
properly accredited agent of  | ||||||
| 4 | the limited liability company. | ||||||
| 5 |  Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing the  | ||||||
| 6 | return
under this Section shall, at the time of filing such  | ||||||
| 7 | return, pay to the
Department the amount of tax imposed by this  | ||||||
| 8 | Act less a discount of 2.1%
prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%  | ||||||
| 9 | on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per
calendar year,  | ||||||
| 10 | whichever is greater, which is allowed to
reimburse the  | ||||||
| 11 | retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
 | ||||||
| 12 | preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying  | ||||||
| 13 | data to
the Department on request. Any prepayment made pursuant  | ||||||
| 14 | to Section 2d
of this Act shall be included in the amount on  | ||||||
| 15 | which such
2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of  | ||||||
| 16 | retailers who report
and pay the tax on a transaction by  | ||||||
| 17 | transaction basis, as provided in this
Section, such discount  | ||||||
| 18 | shall be taken with each such tax remittance
instead of when  | ||||||
| 19 | such retailer files his periodic return. The Department may  | ||||||
| 20 | disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of  | ||||||
| 21 | registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but  | ||||||
| 22 | only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of  | ||||||
| 23 | registration has become final.  | ||||||
| 24 |  Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly  | ||||||
| 25 | tax liability
to the Department
under this Act, the Use Tax  | ||||||
| 26 | Act, the Service Occupation Tax
Act, and the Service Use Tax  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales
tax to be  | ||||||
| 2 | remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
$10,000
 | ||||||
| 3 | or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he  | ||||||
| 4 | shall file a
return with the Department each month by the 20th  | ||||||
| 5 | day of the month next
following the month during which such tax  | ||||||
| 6 | liability is incurred and shall
make payments to the Department  | ||||||
| 7 | on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last
day of the month  | ||||||
| 8 | during which such liability is incurred.
On and after October  | ||||||
| 9 | 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability
to the  | ||||||
| 10 | Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service  | ||||||
| 11 | Occupation Tax
Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, excluding any  | ||||||
| 12 | liability for prepaid sales tax
to be remitted in accordance  | ||||||
| 13 | with Section 2d of this Act, was $20,000 or more
during the  | ||||||
| 14 | preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return  | ||||||
| 15 | with
the Department each month by the 20th day of the month  | ||||||
| 16 | next following the month
during which such tax liability is  | ||||||
| 17 | incurred and shall make payment to the
Department on or before  | ||||||
| 18 | the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during
which such  | ||||||
| 19 | liability is incurred.
If the month
during which such tax  | ||||||
| 20 | liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985,
each  | ||||||
| 21 | payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 22 | actual
liability for the month or an amount set by the  | ||||||
| 23 | Department not to exceed
1/4 of the average monthly liability  | ||||||
| 24 | of the taxpayer to the Department for
the preceding 4 complete  | ||||||
| 25 | calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
liability and  | ||||||
| 26 | the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If
the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or  | ||||||
| 2 | after
January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1, 1987, each  | ||||||
| 3 | payment shall be in an
amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 4 | actual liability for the month or
27.5% 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, 1987 and prior to
January 1, 1988, each  | ||||||
| 8 | payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 9 | actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
 | ||||||
| 10 | liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If  | ||||||
| 11 | the month
during which such tax liability is incurred begins on  | ||||||
| 12 | or after January 1,
1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or  | ||||||
| 13 | begins on or after 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. If
the month during which  | ||||||
| 17 | such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
January 1,  | ||||||
| 18 | 1989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
 | ||||||
| 19 | amount equal to 22.5% of the
taxpayer's actual liability for  | ||||||
| 20 | the month or 25% of the taxpayer's
liability for the same  | ||||||
| 21 | calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the
taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 22 | actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
 | ||||||
| 23 | amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited  | ||||||
| 24 | against
the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for  | ||||||
| 25 | that month. Before
October 1, 2000, once
applicable, the  | ||||||
| 26 | requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to
the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability  | ||||||
| 2 | of
$10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
 | ||||||
| 3 | shall continue
until such taxpayer's average monthly liability  | ||||||
| 4 | to the Department during
the preceding 4 complete calendar  | ||||||
| 5 | quarters (excluding the month of highest
liability and the  | ||||||
| 6 | month of lowest liability) is less than
$9,000, or until
such  | ||||||
| 7 | taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as  | ||||||
| 8 | computed for
each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete  | ||||||
| 9 | calendar quarter period
is less than $10,000. However, if a  | ||||||
| 10 | taxpayer can show the
Department that
a substantial change in  | ||||||
| 11 | the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes
the taxpayer  | ||||||
| 12 | to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
 | ||||||
| 13 | reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000  | ||||||
| 14 | threshold
stated above, then
such taxpayer
may petition the  | ||||||
| 15 | Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting
status. On  | ||||||
| 16 | and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
 | ||||||
| 17 | the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by  | ||||||
| 18 | taxpayers having an
average monthly tax liability of $20,000 or  | ||||||
| 19 | more as determined in the manner
provided above shall continue  | ||||||
| 20 | until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
to the  | ||||||
| 21 | Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters  | ||||||
| 22 | (excluding
the month of highest liability and the month of  | ||||||
| 23 | lowest liability) is less than
$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 | quarter
period is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | show the Department
that a substantial change in the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 2 | business has occurred which causes
the taxpayer to anticipate  | ||||||
| 3 | that his average monthly tax liability for the
reasonably  | ||||||
| 4 | foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated
 | ||||||
| 5 | above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department for a  | ||||||
| 6 | change in such
taxpayer's reporting status. The Department  | ||||||
| 7 | shall change such taxpayer's
reporting status
unless it finds  | ||||||
| 8 | that such change is seasonal in nature and not likely to be
 | ||||||
| 9 | long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at  | ||||||
| 10 | the time or
in the amount required by this Section, then the  | ||||||
| 11 | taxpayer shall be liable for
penalties and interest on the  | ||||||
| 12 | difference
between the minimum amount due as a payment and the  | ||||||
| 13 | amount of such quarter
monthly payment actually and timely  | ||||||
| 14 | paid, except insofar as the
taxpayer has previously made  | ||||||
| 15 | payments for that month to the Department in
excess of the  | ||||||
| 16 | minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
 | ||||||
| 17 | The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to  | ||||||
| 18 | govern the
quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly  | ||||||
| 19 | payment dates for
taxpayers who file on other than a calendar  | ||||||
| 20 | monthly basis. | ||||||
| 21 |  The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,  | ||||||
| 22 | 2001.
Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make  | ||||||
| 23 | quarter monthly
payments as specified above, any taxpayer who  | ||||||
| 24 | is required by Section 2d
of this Act to collect and remit  | ||||||
| 25 | prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid
taxes which average in  | ||||||
| 26 | excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding
2 complete  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
 | ||||||
| 2 | required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the  | ||||||
| 3 | Department on or before
the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the  | ||||||
| 4 | month during which such liability
is incurred. If the month  | ||||||
| 5 | during which such tax liability is incurred
began prior to the  | ||||||
| 6 | effective date of this amendatory Act of 1985, each
payment  | ||||||
| 7 | shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 8 | actual
liability under Section 2d. If the month during which  | ||||||
| 9 | such tax liability
is incurred begins on or after January 1,  | ||||||
| 10 | 1986, each payment shall be in an
amount equal to 22.5% of the  | ||||||
| 11 | taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
27.5% of the  | ||||||
| 12 | taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
 | ||||||
| 13 | preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax  | ||||||
| 14 | liability is
incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each  | ||||||
| 15 | payment shall be in an
amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 16 | actual liability for the month or
26.25% of the taxpayer's  | ||||||
| 17 | liability for the same calendar month of the
preceding year.  | ||||||
| 18 | The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be
credited  | ||||||
| 19 | against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for  | ||||||
| 20 | that
month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case  | ||||||
| 21 | may be. Once
applicable, the requirement of the making of  | ||||||
| 22 | quarter monthly payments to
the Department pursuant to this  | ||||||
| 23 | paragraph shall continue until such
taxpayer's average monthly  | ||||||
| 24 | prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2
complete  | ||||||
| 25 | calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter  | ||||||
| 26 | monthly
payment is not paid at the time or in the amount  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | required, the taxpayer
shall be liable for penalties and  | ||||||
| 2 | interest on such difference, except
insofar as the taxpayer has  | ||||||
| 3 | previously made payments for that month in
excess of the  | ||||||
| 4 | minimum payments previously due. | ||||||
| 5 |  The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October  | ||||||
| 6 | 1, 2001.
Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to  | ||||||
| 7 | make quarter monthly
payments as specified above, any taxpayer  | ||||||
| 8 | who is required by Section 2d of this
Act to collect and remit  | ||||||
| 9 | prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that
average in  | ||||||
| 10 | excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete  | ||||||
| 11 | calendar
quarters shall file a return with the Department as  | ||||||
| 12 | required by Section 2f
and shall make payments to the  | ||||||
| 13 | Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
last day of the  | ||||||
| 14 | month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
 | ||||||
| 15 | shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual  | ||||||
| 16 | liability for the
month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for  | ||||||
| 17 | the same calendar month of the
preceding year. The amount of  | ||||||
| 18 | the quarter monthly payments shall be credited
against the  | ||||||
| 19 | final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month  | ||||||
| 20 | filed
under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.  | ||||||
| 21 | Once applicable, the
requirement of the making of quarter  | ||||||
| 22 | monthly payments to the Department
pursuant to this paragraph  | ||||||
| 23 | shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly
prepaid tax  | ||||||
| 24 | collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
 | ||||||
| 25 | (excluding the month of highest liability and the month of  | ||||||
| 26 | lowest liability) is
less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | average monthly liability to the
Department as computed for  | ||||||
| 2 | each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
calendar  | ||||||
| 3 | quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly  | ||||||
| 4 | payment is
not paid at the time or in the amount required, the  | ||||||
| 5 | taxpayer shall be liable
for penalties and interest on such  | ||||||
| 6 | difference, except insofar as the taxpayer
has previously made  | ||||||
| 7 | payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
 | ||||||
| 8 | previously due. | ||||||
| 9 |  If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds
the  | ||||||
| 10 | taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the  | ||||||
| 11 | Service
Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as  | ||||||
| 12 | shown on an original
monthly return, the Department shall, if  | ||||||
| 13 | requested by the taxpayer, issue to
the taxpayer a credit  | ||||||
| 14 | memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of
payment. The  | ||||||
| 15 | credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may
be assigned by  | ||||||
| 16 | the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the
Use Tax  | ||||||
| 17 | Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,  | ||||||
| 18 | in
accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be  | ||||||
| 19 | prescribed by the
Department. If no such request is made, the  | ||||||
| 20 | taxpayer may credit such excess
payment against tax liability  | ||||||
| 21 | subsequently to be remitted to the Department
under this Act,  | ||||||
| 22 | the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the
Service  | ||||||
| 23 | Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and  | ||||||
| 24 | regulations
prescribed by the Department. If the Department  | ||||||
| 25 | subsequently determined
that all or any part of the credit  | ||||||
| 26 | taken was not actually due to the
taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced
by 2.1% or 1.75%  | ||||||
| 2 | of the difference between the credit taken and that
actually  | ||||||
| 3 | due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and  | ||||||
| 4 | interest
on such difference. | ||||||
| 5 |  If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under  | ||||||
| 6 | Section 2d of
this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability  | ||||||
| 7 | to the Department under
this Act for the month which the  | ||||||
| 8 | taxpayer is filing a return, the
Department shall issue the  | ||||||
| 9 | taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. | ||||||
| 10 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 11 | pay into
the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the  | ||||||
| 12 | State treasury which
is hereby created, the net revenue  | ||||||
| 13 | realized for the preceding month from
the 1% tax on sales of  | ||||||
| 14 | food for human consumption which is to be consumed
off the  | ||||||
| 15 | premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, soft
 | ||||||
| 16 | drinks and food which has been prepared for immediate  | ||||||
| 17 | consumption) and
prescription and nonprescription medicines,  | ||||||
| 18 | drugs, medical appliances and
insulin, urine testing  | ||||||
| 19 | materials, syringes and needles used by diabetics. | ||||||
| 20 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 21 | pay into
the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a special  | ||||||
| 22 | fund in the State
treasury which is hereby created, 4% of the  | ||||||
| 23 | net revenue realized
for the preceding month from the 6.25%  | ||||||
| 24 | general rate. | ||||||
| 25 |  Beginning August 1, 2000, each
month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 26 | pay into the
County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | net revenue realized for the
preceding month from the 1.25%  | ||||||
| 2 | rate on the selling price of motor fuel and
gasohol. Beginning  | ||||||
| 3 | September 1, 2010, each month the Department shall pay into the  | ||||||
| 4 | County and Mass Transit District Fund 20% of the net revenue  | ||||||
| 5 | realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the  | ||||||
| 6 | selling price of sales tax holiday items. | ||||||
| 7 |  Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 8 | pay into
the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue  | ||||||
| 9 | realized for the
preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on  | ||||||
| 10 | the selling price of
tangible personal property. | ||||||
| 11 |  Beginning August 1, 2000, each
month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 12 | pay into the
Local Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue  | ||||||
| 13 | realized for the preceding
month from the 1.25% rate on the  | ||||||
| 14 | selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. Beginning September 1,  | ||||||
| 15 | 2010, each month the Department shall pay into the Local  | ||||||
| 16 | Government Tax Fund 80% of the net revenue realized for the  | ||||||
| 17 | preceding month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of  | ||||||
| 18 | sales tax holiday items. | ||||||
| 19 |  Beginning October 1, 2009, each month the Department shall  | ||||||
| 20 | pay into the Capital Projects Fund an amount that is equal to  | ||||||
| 21 | an amount estimated by the Department to represent 80% of the  | ||||||
| 22 | net revenue realized for the preceding month from the sale of  | ||||||
| 23 | candy, grooming and hygiene products, and soft drinks that had  | ||||||
| 24 | been taxed at a rate of 1% prior to September 1, 2009 but that  | ||||||
| 25 | are now taxed at 6.25%.  | ||||||
| 26 |  Beginning July 1, 2011, each
month the Department shall pay  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | into the Clean Air Act (CAA) Permit Fund 80% of the net revenue  | ||||||
| 2 | realized for the
preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on  | ||||||

| 10 | preceding paragraphs or in any
amendments thereto hereafter  | ||||||
| 11 | enacted, beginning with the receipt of the first

For purposes of this  | ||||||
| 17 | paragraph, the term "eligible business" means a new
electric  | ||||||
| 18 | generating facility certified pursuant to Section 605-332 of  | ||||||
| 19 | the
Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity
Law of the  | ||||||

| 3 | Section 9 of the Service Use Tax Act, Section 9 of the Service  | ||||||
| 4 | Occupation Tax Act, and Section 3 of the Retailers' Occupation  | ||||||

| 11 | Service Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, the  | ||||||
| 12 | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, and associated local occupation  | ||||||
| 13 | and use taxes administered by the Department.  | ||||||
| 14 |  Of the remainder of the moneys received by the Department  | ||||||
| 15 | pursuant to
this Act, 75% thereof shall be paid into the State  | ||||||
| 16 | Treasury and 25% shall

| 20 |  The Department may, upon separate written notice to a  | ||||||
| 21 | taxpayer,
require the taxpayer to prepare and file with the  | ||||||
| 22 | Department on a form
prescribed by the Department within not  | ||||||
| 23 | less than 60 days after receipt
of the notice an annual  | ||||||
| 24 | information return for the tax year specified in
the notice.  | ||||||
| 25 | Such annual return to the Department shall include a
statement  | ||||||
| 26 | of gross receipts as shown by the retailer's last Federal  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | income
tax return. If the total receipts of the business as  | ||||||
| 2 | reported in the
Federal income tax return do not agree with the  | ||||||
| 3 | gross receipts reported to
the Department of Revenue for the  | ||||||
| 4 | same period, the retailer shall attach
to his annual return a  | ||||||
| 5 | schedule showing a reconciliation of the 2
amounts and the  | ||||||
| 6 | reasons for the difference. The retailer's annual
return to the  | ||||||
| 7 | Department shall also disclose the cost of goods sold by
the  | ||||||
| 8 | retailer during the year covered by such return, opening and  | ||||||
| 9 | closing
inventories of such goods for such year, costs of goods  | ||||||
| 10 | used from stock
or taken from stock and given away by the  | ||||||
| 11 | retailer during such year,
payroll information of the  | ||||||
| 12 | retailer's business during such year and any
additional  | ||||||
| 13 | reasonable information which the Department deems would be
 | ||||||
| 14 | helpful in determining the accuracy of the monthly, quarterly  | ||||||
| 15 | or annual
returns filed by such retailer as provided for in  | ||||||
| 16 | this Section. | ||||||
| 17 |  If the annual information return required by this Section  | ||||||
| 18 | is not
filed when and as required, the taxpayer shall be liable  | ||||||
| 19 | as follows: | ||||||
| 20 |   (i) Until January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall be liable
 | ||||||
| 21 |  for a penalty equal to 1/6 of 1% of the tax due from such  | ||||||
| 22 |  taxpayer under
this Act during the period to be covered by  | ||||||
| 23 |  the annual return for each
month or fraction of a month  | ||||||
| 24 |  until such return is filed as required, the
penalty to be  | ||||||
| 25 |  assessed and collected in the same manner as any other
 | ||||||
| 26 |  penalty provided for in this Act. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |   (ii) On and after January 1, 1994, the taxpayer shall  | ||||||
| 2 |  be
liable for a penalty as described in Section 3-4 of the  | ||||||
| 3 |  Uniform Penalty and
Interest Act. | ||||||
| 4 |  The chief executive officer, proprietor, owner or highest  | ||||||
| 5 | ranking
manager shall sign the annual return to certify the  | ||||||
| 6 | accuracy of the
information contained therein. Any person who  | ||||||
| 7 | willfully signs the
annual return containing false or  | ||||||
| 8 | inaccurate information shall be guilty
of perjury and punished  | ||||||
| 9 | accordingly. The annual return form prescribed
by the  | ||||||
| 10 | Department shall include a warning that the person signing the
 | ||||||
| 11 | return may be liable for perjury. | ||||||
| 12 |  The provisions of this Section concerning the filing of an  | ||||||
| 13 | annual
information return do not apply to a retailer who is not  | ||||||
| 14 | required to
file an income tax return with the United States  | ||||||
| 15 | Government. | ||||||
| 16 |  As soon as possible after the first day of each month, upon  | ||||||
| 17 | certification
of the Department of Revenue, the Comptroller  | ||||||
| 18 | shall order transferred and
the Treasurer shall transfer from  | ||||||
| 19 | the General Revenue Fund to the Motor
Fuel Tax Fund an amount  | ||||||
| 20 | equal to 1.7% of 80% of the net revenue realized
under this Act  | ||||||
| 21 | for the second preceding
month.
Beginning April 1, 2000, this  | ||||||
| 22 | transfer is no longer required
and shall not be made. | ||||||
| 23 |  Net revenue realized for a month shall be the revenue  | ||||||
| 24 | collected by the
State pursuant to this Act, less the amount  | ||||||
| 25 | paid out during that month as
refunds to taxpayers for  | ||||||
| 26 | overpayment of liability. | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  For greater simplicity of administration, manufacturers,  | ||||||
| 2 | importers
and wholesalers whose products are sold at retail in  | ||||||
| 3 | Illinois by
numerous retailers, and who wish to do so, may  | ||||||
| 4 | assume the responsibility
for accounting and paying to the  | ||||||
| 5 | Department all tax accruing under this
Act with respect to such  | ||||||
| 6 | sales, if the retailers who are affected do not
make written  | ||||||
| 7 | objection to the Department to this arrangement. | ||||||
| 8 |  Any person who promotes, organizes, provides retail  | ||||||
| 9 | selling space for
concessionaires or other types of sellers at  | ||||||
| 10 | the Illinois State Fair, DuQuoin
State Fair, county fairs,  | ||||||
| 11 | local fairs, art shows, flea markets and similar
exhibitions or  | ||||||
| 12 | events, including any transient merchant as defined by Section  | ||||||
| 13 | 2
of the Transient Merchant Act of 1987, is required to file a  | ||||||
| 14 | report with the
Department providing the name of the merchant's  | ||||||
| 15 | business, the name of the
person or persons engaged in  | ||||||
| 16 | merchant's business, the permanent address and
Illinois  | ||||||
| 17 | Retailers Occupation Tax Registration Number of the merchant,  | ||||||
| 18 | the
dates and location of the event and other reasonable  | ||||||
| 19 | information that the
Department may require. The report must be  | ||||||
| 20 | filed not later than the 20th day
of the month next following  | ||||||
| 21 | the month during which the event with retail sales
was held.  | ||||||
| 22 | Any person who fails to file a report required by this Section
 | ||||||
| 23 | commits a business offense and is subject to a fine not to  | ||||||
| 24 | exceed $250. | ||||||
| 25 |  Any person engaged in the business of selling tangible  | ||||||
| 26 | personal
property at retail as a concessionaire or other type  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | of seller at the
Illinois State Fair, county fairs, art shows,  | ||||||
| 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. | ||||||

alteration, relocation including construction  | ||||||
| 13 | or improvement of any
existing highway necessary for access to  | ||||||
| 14 | property or improvement of any
grade crossing and grade  | ||||||
| 15 | crossing surface including the necessary highway approaches  | ||||||
| 16 | thereto of any
railroad across the highway or public road, or  | ||||||
| 17 | for the installation,
construction, reconstruction, or  | ||||||
| 18 | maintenance of a pedestrian walkway over or
under a railroad  | ||||||
| 19 | right-of-way, as provided for in and in
accordance with Section  | ||||||
| 20 | 18c-7401 of the Illinois Vehicle Code.
The Commission may order  | ||||||
| 21 | up to $2,000,000 per year in Grade Crossing Protection Fund  | ||||||
| 22 | moneys for the improvement of grade crossing surfaces and up to  | ||||||
| 23 | $300,000 per year for the maintenance and renewal of 4-quadrant  | ||||||
| 24 | gate vehicle detection systems located at non-high speed rail  | ||||||
| 25 | grade crossings. The Commission shall not order more than  | ||||||
| 26 | $2,000,000 per year in Grade
Crossing Protection Fund moneys  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | for pedestrian walkways.
In entering orders for projects for  | ||||||
| 2 | which payments from the Grade Crossing
Protection Fund will be  | ||||||
| 3 | made, the Commission shall account for expenditures
authorized  | ||||||
| 4 | by the orders on a cash rather than an accrual basis. For  | ||||||
| 5 | purposes
of this requirement an "accrual basis" assumes that  | ||||||
| 6 | the total cost of the
project is expended in the fiscal year in  | ||||||
| 7 | which the order is entered, while a
"cash basis" allocates the  | ||||||
| 8 | cost of the project among fiscal years as
expenditures are  | ||||||
| 9 | actually made. To meet the requirements of this subsection,
the  | ||||||
| 10 | Illinois Commerce Commission shall develop annual and 5-year  | ||||||
| 11 | project plans
of rail crossing capital improvements that will  | ||||||
| 12 | be paid for with moneys from
the Grade Crossing Protection  | ||||||
| 13 | Fund. The annual project plan shall identify
projects for the  | ||||||
| 14 | succeeding fiscal year and the 5-year project plan shall
 | ||||||
| 15 | identify projects for the 5 directly succeeding fiscal years.  | ||||||
| 16 | The Commission
shall submit the annual and 5-year project plans  | ||||||
| 17 | for this Fund to the Governor,
the President of the Senate, the  | ||||||
| 18 | Senate Minority Leader, the Speaker of the
House of  | ||||||
| 19 | Representatives, and the Minority Leader of the House of
 | ||||||
| 20 | Representatives on
the first Wednesday in April of each year;
 | ||||||
| 21 |  (d) of the amount remaining after allocations provided for  | ||||||
| 22 | in
subsections (a), (b) and (c), a sufficient amount shall be  | ||||||
| 23 | reserved to
pay all of the following:
 | ||||||
| 24 |   (1) the costs of the Department of Revenue in  | ||||||
| 25 |  administering this
Act;
 | ||||||
| 26 |   (2) the costs of the Department of Transportation in  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |  performing its
duties imposed by the Illinois Highway Code  | ||||||
| 2 |  for supervising the use of motor
fuel tax funds apportioned  | ||||||
| 3 |  to municipalities, counties and road districts;
 | ||||||
| 4 |   (3) refunds provided for in Section 13, refunds for  | ||||||
| 5 |  overpayment of decal fees paid under Section 13a.4 of this  | ||||||
| 6 |  Act, and refunds provided for under the terms
of the  | ||||||
| 7 |  International Fuel Tax Agreement referenced in Section  | ||||||
| 8 |  14a;
 | ||||||
| 9 |   (4) from October 1, 1985 until June 30, 1994, the  | ||||||
| 10 |  administration of the
Vehicle Emissions Inspection Law,  | ||||||
| 11 |  which amount shall be certified monthly by
the  | ||||||
| 12 |  Environmental Protection Agency to the State Comptroller  | ||||||
| 13 |  and shall promptly
be transferred by the State Comptroller  | ||||||
| 14 |  and Treasurer from the Motor Fuel Tax
Fund to the Vehicle  | ||||||
| 15 |  Inspection Fund, and for the period July 1, 1994 through
 | ||||||
| 16 |  June 30, 2000, one-twelfth of $25,000,000 each month, for  | ||||||
| 17 |  the period July 1, 2000 through June 30, 2003,
one-twelfth  | ||||||
| 18 |  of
$30,000,000
each month,
and $15,000,000 on July 1, 2003,  | ||||||

 | ||||||
| 4 |   (5) amounts ordered paid by the Court of Claims; and
 | ||||||
| 5 |   (6) payment of motor fuel use taxes due to member  | ||||||
| 6 |  jurisdictions under
the terms of the International Fuel Tax  | ||||||
| 7 |  Agreement. The Department shall
certify these amounts to  | ||||||
| 8 |  the Comptroller by the 15th day of each month; the
 | ||||||
| 9 |  Comptroller shall cause orders to be drawn for such  | ||||||
| 10 |  amounts, and the Treasurer
shall administer those amounts  | ||||||
| 11 |  on or before the last day of each month;
 | ||||||
| 12 |  (e) after allocations for the purposes set forth in  | ||||||
| 13 | subsections
(a), (b), (c) and (d), the remaining amount shall  | ||||||
| 14 | be apportioned as follows:
 | ||||||
| 15 |   (1) Until January 1, 2000, 58.4%, and beginning January  | ||||||
| 16 |  1, 2000, 45.6%
shall be deposited as follows:
 | ||||||
| 17 |    (A) 37% into the State Construction Account Fund,  | ||||||
| 18 |  and
 | ||||||
| 19 |    (B) 63% into the Road Fund, $1,250,000 of which  | ||||||
| 20 |  shall be reserved each
month for the Department of  | ||||||
| 21 |  Transportation to be used in accordance with
the  | ||||||
| 22 |  provisions of Sections 6-901 through 6-906 of the  | ||||||
| 23 |  Illinois Highway Code;
 | ||||||
| 24 |   (2) Until January 1, 2000, 41.6%, and beginning January  | ||||||
| 25 |  1, 2000, 54.4%
shall be transferred to the Department of  | ||||||
| 26 |  Transportation to be
distributed as follows:
 | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 |    (A) 49.10% to the municipalities of the State,
 | ||||||
| 2 |    (B) 16.74% to the counties of the State having  | ||||||
| 3 |  1,000,000 or more inhabitants,
 | ||||||
| 4 |    (C) 18.27% to the counties of the State having less  | ||||||
| 5 |  than 1,000,000 inhabitants,
 | ||||||
| 6 |    (D) 15.89% to the road districts of the State.
 | ||||||
| 7 |  As soon as may be after the first day of each month the  | ||||||
| 8 | Department of
Transportation shall allot to each municipality  | ||||||
| 9 | its share of the amount
apportioned to the several  | ||||||
| 10 | municipalities which shall be in proportion
to the population  | ||||||
| 11 | of such municipalities as determined by the last
preceding  | ||||||
| 12 | municipal census if conducted by the Federal Government or
 | ||||||
| 13 | Federal census. If territory is annexed to any municipality  | ||||||
| 14 | subsequent
to the time of the last preceding census the  | ||||||
| 15 | corporate authorities of
such municipality may cause a census  | ||||||
| 16 | to be taken of such annexed
territory and the population so  | ||||||
| 17 | ascertained for such territory shall be
added to the population  | ||||||
| 18 | of the municipality as determined by the last
preceding census  | ||||||
| 19 | for the purpose of determining the allotment for that
 | ||||||
| 20 | municipality. If the population of any municipality was not  | ||||||
| 21 | determined
by the last Federal census preceding any  | ||||||
| 22 | apportionment, the
apportionment to such municipality shall be  | ||||||
| 23 | in accordance with any
census taken by such municipality. Any  | ||||||
| 24 | municipal census used in
accordance with this Section shall be  | ||||||
| 25 | certified to the Department of
Transportation by the clerk of  | ||||||
| 26 | such municipality, and the accuracy
thereof shall be subject to  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | approval of the Department which may make
such corrections as  | ||||||
| 2 | it ascertains to be necessary.
 | ||||||
| 3 |  As soon as may be after the first day of each month the  | ||||||
| 4 | Department of
Transportation shall allot to each county its  | ||||||
| 5 | share of the amount
apportioned to the several counties of the  | ||||||
| 6 | State as herein provided.
Each allotment to the several  | ||||||
| 7 | counties having less than 1,000,000
inhabitants shall be in  | ||||||
| 8 | proportion to the amount of motor vehicle
license fees received  | ||||||
| 9 | from the residents of such counties, respectively,
during the  | ||||||
| 10 | preceding calendar year. The Secretary of State shall, on or
 | ||||||
| 11 | before April 15 of each year, transmit to the Department of
 | ||||||
| 12 | Transportation a full and complete report showing the amount of  | ||||||
| 13 | motor
vehicle license fees received from the residents of each  | ||||||
| 14 | county,
respectively, during the preceding calendar year. The  | ||||||
| 15 | Department of
Transportation shall, each month, use for  | ||||||
| 16 | allotment purposes the last
such report received from the  | ||||||
| 17 | Secretary of State.
 | ||||||
| 18 |  As soon as may be after the first day of each month, the  | ||||||
| 19 | Department
of Transportation shall allot to the several  | ||||||
| 20 | counties their share of the
amount apportioned for the use of  | ||||||
| 21 | road districts. The allotment shall
be apportioned among the  | ||||||
| 22 | several counties in the State in the proportion
which the total  | ||||||
| 23 | mileage of township or district roads in the respective
 | ||||||
| 24 | counties bears to the total mileage of all township and  | ||||||
| 25 | district roads
in the State. Funds allotted to the respective  | ||||||
| 26 | counties for the use of
road districts therein shall be  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | allocated to the several road districts
in the county in the  | ||||||
| 2 | proportion which the total mileage of such township
or district  | ||||||
| 3 | roads in the respective road districts bears to the total
 | ||||||
| 4 | mileage of all such township or district roads in the county.  | ||||||
| 5 | After
July 1 of any year prior to 2011, no allocation shall be  | ||||||
| 6 | made for any road district
unless it levied a tax for road and  | ||||||
| 7 | bridge purposes in an amount which
will require the extension  | ||||||
| 8 | of such tax against the taxable property in
any such road  | ||||||
| 9 | district at a rate of not less than either .08% of the value
 | ||||||
| 10 | thereof, based upon the assessment for the year immediately  | ||||||
| 11 | prior to the year
in which such tax was levied and as equalized  | ||||||
| 12 | by the Department of Revenue
or, in DuPage County, an amount  | ||||||
| 13 | equal to or greater than $12,000 per mile of
road under the  | ||||||
| 14 | jurisdiction of the road district, whichever is less. Beginning  | ||||||
| 15 | July 1, 2011 and each July 1 thereafter, an allocation shall be  | ||||||
| 16 | made for any road district
if it levied a tax for road and  | ||||||
| 17 | bridge purposes. In counties other than DuPage County, if the  | ||||||
| 18 | amount of the tax levy requires the extension of the tax  | ||||||
| 19 | against the taxable property in
the road district at a rate  | ||||||
| 20 | that is less than 0.08% of the value
thereof, based upon the  | ||||||
| 21 | assessment for the year immediately prior to the year
in which  | ||||||
| 22 | the tax was levied and as equalized by the Department of  | ||||||
| 23 | Revenue, then the amount of the allocation for that road  | ||||||
| 24 | district shall be a percentage of the maximum allocation equal  | ||||||
| 25 | to the percentage obtained by dividing the rate extended by the  | ||||||
| 26 | district by 0.08%. In DuPage County, if the amount of the tax  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | levy requires the extension of the tax against the taxable  | ||||||
| 2 | property in
the road district at a rate that is less than the  | ||||||
| 3 | lesser of (i) 0.08% of the value
of the taxable property in the  | ||||||
| 4 | road district, based upon the assessment for the year  | ||||||
| 5 | immediately prior to the year
in which such tax was levied and  | ||||||
| 6 | as equalized by the Department of Revenue,
or (ii) a rate that  | ||||||
| 7 | will yield an amount equal to $12,000 per mile of
road under  | ||||||
| 8 | the jurisdiction of the road district, then the amount of the  | ||||||
| 9 | allocation for the road district shall be a percentage of the  | ||||||
| 10 | maximum allocation equal to the percentage obtained by dividing  | ||||||
| 11 | the rate extended by the district by the lesser of (i) 0.08% or  | ||||||
| 12 | (ii) the rate that will yield an amount equal to $12,000 per  | ||||||
| 13 | mile of
road under the jurisdiction of the road district.  | ||||||
| 14 |  Prior to 2011, if any
road district has levied a special  | ||||||
| 15 | tax for road purposes
pursuant to Sections 6-601, 6-602 and  | ||||||
| 16 | 6-603 of the Illinois Highway Code, and
such tax was levied in  | ||||||
| 17 | an amount which would require extension at a
rate of not less  | ||||||
| 18 | than .08% of the value of the taxable property thereof,
as  | ||||||
| 19 | equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue,
or, in  | ||||||
| 20 | DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per  | ||||||
| 21 | mile of
road under the jurisdiction of the road district,  | ||||||
| 22 | whichever is less,
such levy shall, however, be deemed a proper  | ||||||
| 23 | compliance with this
Section and shall qualify such road  | ||||||
| 24 | district for an allotment under this
Section. Beginning in 2011  | ||||||
| 25 | and thereafter, if any
road district has levied a special tax  | ||||||
| 26 | for road purposes
under Sections 6-601, 6-602, and 6-603 of the  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | Illinois Highway Code, and
the tax was levied in an amount that  | ||||||
| 2 | would require extension at a
rate of not less than 0.08% of the  | ||||||
| 3 | value of the taxable property of that road district,
as  | ||||||
| 4 | equalized or assessed by the Department of Revenue or, in  | ||||||
| 5 | DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater than $12,000 per  | ||||||
| 6 | mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road district,  | ||||||
| 7 | whichever is less, that levy shall be deemed a proper  | ||||||
| 8 | compliance with this
Section and shall qualify such road  | ||||||
| 9 | district for a full, rather than proportionate, allotment under  | ||||||
| 10 | this
Section. If the levy for the special tax is less than  | ||||||
| 11 | 0.08% of the value of the taxable property, or, in DuPage  | ||||||
| 12 | County if the levy for the special tax is less than the lesser  | ||||||
| 13 | of (i) 0.08% or (ii) $12,000 per mile of road under the  | ||||||
| 14 | jurisdiction of the road district, and if the levy for the  | ||||||
| 15 | special tax is more than any other levy for road and bridge  | ||||||
| 16 | purposes, then the levy for the special tax qualifies the road  | ||||||
| 17 | district for a proportionate, rather than full, allotment under  | ||||||
| 18 | this Section. If the levy for the special tax is equal to or  | ||||||
| 19 | less than any other levy for road and bridge purposes, then any  | ||||||
| 20 | allotment under this Section shall be determined by the other  | ||||||
| 21 | levy for road and bridge purposes. | ||||||
| 22 |  Prior to 2011, if a township has transferred to the road  | ||||||
| 23 | and bridge fund
money which, when added to the amount of any  | ||||||
| 24 | tax levy of the road
district would be the equivalent of a tax  | ||||||
| 25 | levy requiring extension at a
rate of at least .08%, or, in  | ||||||
| 26 | DuPage County, an amount equal to or greater
than $12,000 per  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | mile of road under the jurisdiction of the road district,
 | ||||||
| 2 | whichever is less, such transfer, together with any such tax  | ||||||
| 3 | levy,
shall be deemed a proper compliance with this Section and  | ||||||
| 4 | shall qualify
the road district for an allotment under this  | ||||||
| 5 | Section.
 | ||||||
| 6 |  In counties in which a property tax extension limitation is  | ||||||
| 7 | imposed
under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law, road  | ||||||
| 8 | districts may retain
their entitlement to a motor fuel tax  | ||||||
| 9 | allotment or, beginning in 2011, their entitlement to a full  | ||||||
| 10 | allotment if, at the time the property
tax
extension limitation  | ||||||
| 11 | was imposed, the road district was levying a road and
bridge  | ||||||
| 12 | tax at a rate sufficient to entitle it to a motor fuel tax  | ||||||
| 13 | allotment
and continues to levy the maximum allowable amount  | ||||||
| 14 | after the imposition of the
property tax extension limitation.  | ||||||
| 15 | Any road district may in all circumstances
retain its  | ||||||
| 16 | entitlement to a motor fuel tax allotment or, beginning in  | ||||||
| 17 | 2011, its entitlement to a full allotment if it levied a road  | ||||||
| 18 | and
bridge tax in an amount that will require the extension of  | ||||||
| 19 | the tax against the
taxable property in the road district at a  | ||||||
| 20 | rate of not less than 0.08% of the
assessed value of the  | ||||||
| 21 | property, based upon the assessment for the year
immediately  | ||||||
| 22 | preceding the year in which the tax was levied and as equalized  | ||||||
| 23 | by
the Department of Revenue or, in DuPage County, an amount  | ||||||
| 24 | equal to or greater
than $12,000 per mile of road under the  | ||||||
| 25 | jurisdiction of the road district,
whichever is less.
 | ||||||
| 26 |  As used in this Section the term "road district" means any  | ||||||
 
  | |||||||
  | |||||||
| 1 | road
district, including a county unit road district, provided  | ||||||
| 2 | for by the
Illinois Highway Code; and the term "township or  | ||||||
| 3 | district road"
means any road in the township and district road  | ||||||
| 4 | system as defined in the
Illinois Highway Code. For the  | ||||||
| 5 | purposes of this Section, "township or
district road" also  | ||||||
| 6 | includes such roads as are maintained by park
districts, forest  | ||||||
| 7 | preserve districts and conservation districts. The
Department  | ||||||
| 8 | of Transportation shall determine the mileage of all township
 | ||||||
| 9 | and district roads for the purposes of making allotments and  | ||||||
| 10 | allocations of
motor fuel tax funds for use in road districts.
 | ||||||
| 11 |  Payment of motor fuel tax moneys to municipalities and  | ||||||
| 12 | counties shall
be made as soon as possible after the allotment  | ||||||
| 13 | is made. The treasurer
of the municipality or county may invest  | ||||||
| 14 | these funds until their use is
required and the interest earned  | ||||||
| 15 | by these investments shall be limited
to the same uses as the  | ||||||
| 16 | principal funds.

equaling 1/2 of the  | ||||||
| 14 |  total sum paid by such agencies during the State's previous
