8  statement to the appropriate tax collection agency in his
9  or her state of residence. In addition, the retailer must
10  retain a signed copy of the statement in his or her

13  following the filing of an intent to title the vehicle in
14  the purchaser's state of residence if the purchaser titles
15  the vehicle in his or her state of residence within 30 days
16  after the date of sale. The tax collected under this Act in
