19 Sec. 3-10. Rate of tax. Unless otherwise provided in this
20Section, the tax imposed by this Act is at the rate of 6.25% of

SB0121- 2 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1either the selling price or the fair market value, if any, of
2the tangible personal property. In all cases where property
3functionally used or consumed is the same as the property that
4was purchased at retail, then the tax is imposed on the selling
5price of the property. In all cases where property functionally
6used or consumed is a by-product or waste product that has been
7refined, manufactured, or produced from property purchased at
8retail, then the tax is imposed on the lower of the fair market
9value, if any, of the specific property so used in this State
10or on the selling price of the property purchased at retail.
11For purposes of this Section "fair market value" means the
12price at which property would change hands between a willing
13buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion
14to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the
15relevant facts. The fair market value shall be established by
16Illinois sales by the taxpayer of the same property as that
17functionally used or consumed, or if there are no such sales by
18the taxpayer, then comparable sales or purchases of property of
19like kind and character in Illinois.

14 Sec. 9. Except as to motor vehicles, watercraft, aircraft,
15and trailers that are required to be registered with an agency
16of this State, each retailer required or authorized to collect
17the tax imposed by this Act shall pay to the Department the
18amount of such tax (except as otherwise provided) at the time
19when he is required to file his return for the period during

22per calendar year, whichever is greater, which is allowed to
23reimburse the retailer for expenses incurred in collecting the
24tax, keeping records, preparing and filing returns, remitting

SB0121- 8 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1case of retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction

7disallow the discount for retailers whose certificate of
8registration is revoked at the time the return is filed, but
9only if the Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
10registration has become final. A retailer need not remit that
11part of any tax collected by him to the extent that he is
12required to remit and does remit the tax imposed by the
13Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, with respect to the sale of the
14same property.
15 Where such tangible personal property is sold under a
16conditional sales contract, or under any other form of sale
17wherein the payment of the principal sum, or a part thereof, is
18extended beyond the close of the period for which the return is
19filed, the retailer, in collecting the tax (except as to motor
20vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
21to be registered with an agency of this State), may collect for
22each tax return period, only the tax applicable to that part of
23the selling price actually received during such tax return
24period.
25 Except as provided in this Section, on or before the
26twentieth day of each calendar month, such retailer shall file

SB0121- 9 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b

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

5vehicles, watercraft, aircraft, and trailers that are required
6to be registered with an agency of this State, with respect to
7retailers whose annual gross receipts average $20,000 or more,
8all returns required to be filed pursuant to this Act shall be

10the proper notice and demand for signature by the Department,
11the return shall be considered valid and any amount shown to be
12due on the return shall be deemed assessed.

7month during which such tax liability is incurred and shall
8make payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th,
922nd and last day of the month during which such liability is
10incurred. On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's
11average monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act,
12the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax
13Act, and the Service Use Tax Act was $20,000 or more during the
14preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
15with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
16next following the month during which such tax liability is
17incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
18the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
19liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
20liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
21payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
22actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
23Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
24of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
25calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
26the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the

SB0121- 13 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
2after January 1, 1985, and prior to January 1, 1987, each
3payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
4actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
5liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
6the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
7or after January 1, 1987, and prior to January 1, 1988, each
8payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
9actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
10liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
11the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
12or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
13begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
14amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
15the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
16calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
17such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
181989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
19amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
20the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
21calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
22actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
23amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
24against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
25that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
26requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the

SB0121- 14 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1Department shall continue until such taxpayer's average
2monthly liability to the Department during the preceding 4
3complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest
4liability and the month of lowest liability) is less than
5$9,000, or until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
6the Department as computed for each calendar quarter of the 4
7preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
8$10,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
9substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred
10which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average
11monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future
12will fall below the $10,000 threshold stated above, then such
13taxpayer may petition the Department for change in such
14taxpayer's reporting status. On and after October 1, 2000, once
15applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter monthly
16payments to the Department shall continue until such taxpayer's
17average monthly liability to the Department during the
18preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of
19highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less
20than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
21to the Department as computed for each calendar quarter of the
224 preceding complete calendar quarter period is less than
23$20,000. However, if a taxpayer can show the Department that a
24substantial change in the taxpayer's business has occurred
25which causes the taxpayer to anticipate that his average
26monthly tax liability for the reasonably foreseeable future

SB0121- 15 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated above, then such
2taxpayer may petition the Department for a change in such
3taxpayer's reporting status. The Department shall change such
4taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds that such change is
5seasonal in nature and not likely to be long term. If any such
6quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the
7amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be
8liable for penalties and interest on the difference between the
9minimum amount due and the amount of such quarter monthly
10payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as the
11taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to the
12Department in excess of the minimum payments previously due as
13provided in this Section. The Department shall make reasonable
14rules and regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment
15amount and quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file
16on other than a calendar monthly basis.
17 If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
18the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
19Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
20Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
21the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
22no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
23memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
24in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
25taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
26similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax

SB0121- 16 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
2in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
3prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
4payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
5after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
6unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,
7the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
8liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
9Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
10the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
11accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
12the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
13all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
14taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
15be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
16credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
17liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
18 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
19return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
20the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
21authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
22with the return for January, February, and March of a given
23year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for

5liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the Department
6may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with
7the return for a given year being due by January 20 of the
8following year.
9 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
10substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
11returns.
12 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
13the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
14case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
15which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
16such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
17Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
18business.
19 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
20aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
21an agency of this State, every retailer selling this kind of
22tangible personal property shall file, with the Department,
23upon a form to be prescribed and supplied by the Department, a
24separate return for each such item of tangible personal
25property which the retailer sells, except that if, in the same
26transaction, (i) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor

SB0121- 18 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1vehicles or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
2watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer to another aircraft,
3watercraft, motor vehicle or trailer retailer for the purpose
4of resale or (ii) a retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor
5vehicles, or trailers transfers more than one aircraft,
6watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer to a purchaser for use as
7a qualifying rolling stock as provided in Section 3-55 of this
8Act, then that seller may report the transfer of all the
9aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers involved in
10that transaction to the Department on the same uniform
11invoice-transaction reporting return form. For purposes of
12this Section, "watercraft" means a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4
13watercraft as defined in Section 3-2 of the Boat Registration
14and Safety Act, a personal watercraft, or any boat equipped
15with an inboard motor.
16 The transaction reporting return in the case of motor
17vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with an
18agency of this State, shall be the same document as the Uniform
19Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle
20Code and must show the name and address of the seller; the name
21and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling price
22including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
23property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the
24traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to
25which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
26of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such

SB0121- 19 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
2tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
3amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
4such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not
5due in that particular instance, if that is claimed to be the
6fact); the place and date of the sale; a sufficient
7identification of the property sold; such other information as
8is required in Section 5-402 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, and
9such other information as the Department may reasonably
10require.
11 The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
12and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
13name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
14price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
15traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
16for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the

18the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
19deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
20the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
21transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by
22the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that
23such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
24claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a
25sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
26information as the Department may reasonably require.

SB0121- 20 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
2than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
3being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
4than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
5return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
6that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
7Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
8officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
9titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
10if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
11that this procedure will expedite the processing of
12applications for title or registration.
13 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
14shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
15satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
16the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
17Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
18(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied
19that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
20may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
21whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
22that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
23support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
24certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
25tangible personal property.
26 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this

SB0121- 21 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
2retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
3evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
4is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
5paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
6Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
7mandate of this paragraph.
8 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
9wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
10tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
11retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
12paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
13of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
14being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
15the information required by the transaction reporting return
16and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
17the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
18determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
19and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
20credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
21with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
22provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
23the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
24same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
25if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
26 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the

SB0121- 22 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
2the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
3property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
4the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
5purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When filing
6his return for the period in which he refunds such tax to the
7purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax so
8refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax which
9such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
10Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax
11to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
12such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
13amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
14deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
15purchaser.
16 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also
17include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
18covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible
19personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
20but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
21from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
22remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
23return.
24 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
25Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
26return which will enable retailers, who are required to file

SB0121- 23 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
2Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
3Acts on the one form.
4 Where the retailer has more than one business registered
5with the Department under separate registration under this Act,
6such retailer may not file each return that is due as a single
7return covering all such registered businesses, but shall file
8separate returns for each such registered business.

17requirements of this Section.
18 If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
19return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax liability to
20the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
21authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
22with the return for January, February and March of a given year
23being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for April,
24May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of such year;

SB0121- 45 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1October, November and December of a given year being due by
2January 20 of the following year.
3 If the serviceman is otherwise required to file a monthly
4or quarterly return and if the serviceman's average monthly tax
5liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the Department
6may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual basis, with
7the return for a given year being due by January 20 of the

10substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as monthly
11returns.
12 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
13the time within which a serviceman may file his return, in the
14case of any serviceman who ceases to engage in a kind of
15business which makes him responsible for filing returns under
16this Act, such serviceman shall file a final return under this
17Act with the Department not more than 1 month after
18discontinuing such business.
19 Where a serviceman collects the tax with respect to the
20selling price of property which he sells and the purchaser
21thereafter returns such property and the serviceman refunds the
22selling price thereof to the purchaser, such serviceman shall
23also refund, to the purchaser, the tax so collected from the
24purchaser. When filing his return for the period in which he
25refunds such tax to the purchaser, the serviceman may deduct
26the amount of the tax so refunded by him to the purchaser from

SB0121- 46 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1any other Service Use Tax, Service Occupation Tax, retailers'
2occupation tax or use tax which such serviceman may be required
3to pay or remit to the Department, as shown by such return,
4provided that the amount of the tax to be deducted shall
5previously have been remitted to the Department by such
6serviceman. If the serviceman shall not previously have
7remitted the amount of such tax to the Department, he shall be
8entitled to no deduction hereunder upon refunding such tax to
9the purchaser.
10 Any serviceman filing a return hereunder shall also include
11the total tax upon the selling price of tangible personal
12property purchased for use by him as an incident to a sale of
13service, and such serviceman shall remit the amount of such tax
14to the Department when filing such return.
15 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
16Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
17return which will enable servicemen, who are required to file
18returns hereunder and also under the Service Occupation Tax
19Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
20Acts on the one form.
21 Where the serviceman has more than one business registered
22with the Department under separate registration hereunder,
23such serviceman shall not file each return that is due as a
24single return covering all such registered businesses, but
25shall file separate returns for each such registered business.

12an agency of this State, so that all retailers' occupation tax
13liability is required to be reported, and is reported, on such
14transaction reporting returns and who is not otherwise required
15to file monthly or quarterly returns, need not file monthly or
16quarterly returns. However, those retailers shall be required
17to file returns on an annual basis.
18 The transaction reporting return, in the case of motor
19vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with an
20agency of this State, shall be the same document as the Uniform
21Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of The Illinois Vehicle

23and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling price
24including the amount allowed by the retailer for traded-in
25property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer for the
26traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the extent to

SB0121- 98 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for the value
2of traded-in property; the balance payable after deducting such
3trade-in allowance from the total selling price; the amount of
4tax due from the retailer with respect to such transaction; the
5amount of tax collected from the purchaser by the retailer on
6such transaction (or satisfactory evidence that such tax is not

9identification of the property sold; such other information as

20the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
21deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling price;
22the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to such
23transaction; the amount of tax collected from the purchaser by

25such tax is not due in that particular instance, if that is
26claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the sale, a

SB0121- 99 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1sufficient identification of the property sold, and such other
2information as the Department may reasonably require.
3 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
4than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
5being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
6than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
7return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
8Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
9the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
10tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
11titling or registration is required) if the Department and such
12agency or State officer determine that this procedure will
13expedite the processing of applications for title or
14registration.
15 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
16shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
17satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
18the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
19Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
20receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
21satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
22purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State officer
23with whom, he must title or register the tangible personal
24property that is involved (if titling or registration is
25required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
26Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or registration

SB0121- 100 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1to such tangible personal property.
2 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
3Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
4retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
5evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
6is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
7paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
8Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
9mandate of this paragraph.
10 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
11wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment of
12the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
13retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
14paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
15of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
16being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
17the information required by the transaction reporting return
18and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
19the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
20determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
21and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
22credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
23with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
24provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
25the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
26same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted

SB0121- 101 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
2 Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
3period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
4returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
5subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
6may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
7receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
8return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
9with respect to such receipts.
10 Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
11behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
12vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
13accredited agent of such corporation.
14 Where the seller is a limited liability company, the return
15filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall be
16signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent of
17the limited liability company.
18 Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing the
19return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
20return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
21Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
22on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
23whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
24retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
25preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
26data to the Department on request. Any prepayment made pursuant

SB0121- 102 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1to Section 2d of this Act shall be included in the amount on
2which such 2.1% or 1.75% discount is computed. In the case of
3retailers who report and pay the tax on a transaction by
4transaction basis, as provided in this Section, such discount
5shall be taken with each such tax remittance instead of when
6such retailer files his periodic return. The discount allowed
7under this Section is allowed only for returns that are filed
8in the manner required by this Act. The Department may disallow
9the discount for retailers whose certificate of registration is
10revoked at the time the return is filed, but only if the
11Department's decision to revoke the certificate of
12registration has become final.
13 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
14tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
15Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax

21liability is incurred and shall make payments to the Department
22on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month
23during which such liability is incurred. On and after October
241, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly tax liability to the
25Department under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the Service
26Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, excluding any

SB0121- 103 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1liability for prepaid sales tax to be remitted in accordance
2with Section 2d of this Act, was $20,000 or more during the
3preceding 4 complete calendar quarters, he shall file a return
4with the Department each month by the 20th day of the month
5next following the month during which such tax liability is
6incurred and shall make payment to the Department on or before
7the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the month during which such
8liability is incurred. If the month during which such tax
9liability is incurred began prior to January 1, 1985, each
10payment shall be in an amount equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's
11actual liability for the month or an amount set by the
12Department not to exceed 1/4 of the average monthly liability
13of the taxpayer to the Department for the preceding 4 complete
14calendar quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and
15the month of lowest liability in such 4 quarter period). If the
16month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or
17after January 1, 1985 and prior to January 1, 1987, each
18payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
19actual liability for the month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's
20liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
21the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on
22or after January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each
23payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
24actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
25liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If
26the month during which such tax liability is incurred begins on

SB0121- 104 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1or after January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or
2begins on or after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
3amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
4the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
5calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during which
6such tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1,
71989, and prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an
8amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for
9the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
10calendar month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's
11actual liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The
12amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
13against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
14that month. Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the
15requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
16Department by taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability
17of $10,000 or more as determined in the manner provided above
18shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability
19to the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
20quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
21month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
22taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
23computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
24calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
25taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
26the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer

SB0121- 105 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
2reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000
3threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
4Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. On
5and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
6the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
7taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 or
8more as determined in the manner provided above shall continue
9until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to the
10Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
11(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
12lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
13average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
14each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
15quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a taxpayer can
16show the Department that a substantial change in the taxpayer's
17business has occurred which causes the taxpayer to anticipate
18that his average monthly tax liability for the reasonably
19foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 threshold stated
20above, then such taxpayer may petition the Department for a
21change in such taxpayer's reporting status. The Department
22shall change such taxpayer's reporting status unless it finds
23that such change is seasonal in nature and not likely to be
24long term. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at
25the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the
26taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the

SB0121- 106 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1difference between the minimum amount due as a payment and the
2amount of such quarter monthly payment actually and timely
3paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
4payments for that month to the Department in excess of the
5minimum payments previously due as provided in this Section.
6The Department shall make reasonable rules and regulations to
7govern the quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly
8payment dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar
9monthly basis.
10 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
112001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
12quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
13is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
14prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
15excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
16calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
17required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
18Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
19month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
20during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to
21September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221),
22each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
23taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
24during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
25January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
2622.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 27.5%

SB0121- 107 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
2preceding calendar year. If the month during which such tax
3liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, each
4payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's
5actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's
6liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year.
7The amount of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited
8against the final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for
9that month filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case
10may be. Once applicable, the requirement of the making of
11quarter monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this
12paragraph shall continue until such taxpayer's average monthly
13prepaid tax collections during the preceding 2 complete
14calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. If any such quarter
15monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
16required, the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
17interest on such difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has
18previously made payments for that month in excess of the
19minimum payments previously due.
20 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after October
211, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to
22make quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer
23who is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
24prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes that average in
25excess of $20,000 per month during the preceding 4 complete
26calendar quarters shall file a return with the Department as

SB0121- 108 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
2Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
3month during which the liability is incurred. Each payment
4shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
5liability for the month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for
6the same calendar month of the preceding year. The amount of
7the quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
8final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month
9filed under this Section or Section 2f, as the case may be.
10Once applicable, the requirement of the making of quarter
11monthly payments to the Department pursuant to this paragraph
12shall continue until the taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax
13collections during the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters
14(excluding the month of highest liability and the month of
15lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's
16average monthly liability to the Department as computed for
17each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar
18quarters is less than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly
19payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required, the
20taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on such
21difference, except insofar as the taxpayer has previously made
22payments for that month in excess of the minimum payments
23previously due.
24 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the
25taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
26Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as

SB0121- 109 -LRB101 04745 HLH 49754 b
1shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
2requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
3memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
4credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
5the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
6Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
7in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
8prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
9taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
10subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
11the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
12Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
13regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
14subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
15taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1%
16and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75%
17of the difference between the credit taken and that actually
18due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and
19interest on such difference.
20 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
21Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
22to the Department under this Act for the month which the
23taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
24taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
25 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
