10 under paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of Section 304, except
11 that for purposes of this determination premiums from

19 on the foreign insurer's net income allocable to Illinois for
20 the taxable year by such foreign insurer's state or country of
21 domicile if that net income were subject to all income taxes
22 and taxes measured by net income imposed by such foreign
23 insurer's state or country of domicile, net of all credits
24 allowed or (ii) a rate of zero if no such tax is imposed on
25 such income by the foreign insurer's state of domicile. For

1 includes a mutual insurer under common management.
2 (1) For the purposes of subsection (d-1), in no event
3 shall the sum of the rates of tax imposed by subsections
4 (b) and (d) be reduced below the rate at which the sum of:
5 (A) the total amount of tax imposed on such
6 foreign insurer under this Act for a taxable year, net
7 of all credits allowed under this Act, plus
8 (B) the privilege tax imposed by Section 409 of
9 the Illinois Insurance Code, the fire insurance
10 company tax imposed by Section 12 of the Fire
11 Investigation Act, and the fire department taxes
12 imposed under Section 11-10-1 of the Illinois

16 December 31, 2003, of the net taxable premiums written for
17 the taxable year, as described by subsection (1) of

19 will in no event increase the rates imposed under
20 subsections (b) and (d).
21 (2) Any reduction in the rates of tax imposed by this
22 subsection shall be applied first against the rates
23 imposed by subsection (b) and only after the tax imposed
24 by subsection (a) net of all credits allowed under this
25 Section other than the credit allowed under subsection (i)
26 has been reduced to zero, against the rates imposed by

4 (e) Investment credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a
5 credit against the Personal Property Tax Replacement Income
6 Tax for investment in qualified property.
7 (1) A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit equal to .5%
8 of the basis of qualified property placed in service
9 during the taxable year, provided such property is placed
10 in service on or after July 1, 1984. There shall be allowed
11 an additional credit equal to .5% of the basis of
12 qualified property placed in service during the taxable
13 year, provided such property is placed in service on or
14 after July 1, 1986, and the taxpayer's base employment
15 within Illinois has increased by 1% or more over the
16 preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's employment
17 records filed with the Illinois Department of Employment
18 Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be
19 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for the
20 first year in which they file employment records with the
21 Illinois Department of Employment Security. The provisions
22 added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 (and restored
23 by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as declaratory of
24 existing law and not as a new enactment. If, in any year,

16 excess credit years if the taxpayer (i) makes investments
17 which cause the creation of a minimum of 2,000 full-time
18 equivalent jobs in Illinois, (ii) is located in an
19 enterprise zone established pursuant to the Illinois
20 Enterprise Zone Act and (iii) is certified by the
21 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs (now

5 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability
6 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be
7 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5
8 taxable years following the excess credit years. The
9 credit shall be applied to the earliest year for which
10 there is a liability. If there is credit from more than one
11 tax year that is available to offset a liability, earlier
12 credit shall be applied first.

18 48 months after being placed in service, or the situs of
19 any qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48
20 months after being placed in service, the Personal

9 Zone or River Edge Redevelopment Zone within 48 months
10 after being placed in service, the tax imposed under
11 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such taxable
12 year shall be increased. Such increase shall be determined
13 by (i) recomputing the investment credit which would have
14 been allowed for the year in which credit for such
15 property was originally allowed by eliminating such
16 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such
17 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously
18 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a

2 employment within Illinois has increased by 1% or more
3 over the preceding year as determined by the taxpayer's
4 employment records filed with the Illinois Department of
5 Employment Security. Taxpayers who are new to Illinois
6 shall be deemed to have met the 1% growth in base
7 employment for the first year in which they file
8 employment records with the Illinois Department of
9 Employment Security. If, in any year, the increase in base
10 employment within Illinois over the preceding year is less
11 than 1%, the additional credit shall be limited to that
12 percentage times a fraction, the numerator of which is
13 0.5% and the denominator of which is 1%, but shall not
14 exceed 0.5%.

1 (other than a publicly traded partnership under Section
2 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code) or Subchapter S
3 corporation may elect to apply the provisions of this
4 subsection. A separate election shall be made for each
5 taxable year. Such election shall be made at such time,
6 and in such form and manner as prescribed by the
7 Department, and, once made, is irrevocable.
8 (2) Entity-level tax. A partnership or Subchapter S
9 corporation electing to apply the provisions of this
10 subsection shall be subject to a tax for the privilege of
11 earning or receiving income in this State in an amount
12 equal to 4.95% of the taxpayer's net income for the
13 taxable year.
14 (3) Net income defined.
15 (A) In general. For purposes of paragraph (2), the
16 term net income has the same meaning as defined in
17 Section 202 of this Act, except that, for tax years
18 ending on or after December 31, 2023, a deduction
19 shall be allowed in computing base income for
20 distributions to a retired partner to the extent that
21 the partner's distributions are exempt from tax under
22 Section 203(a)(2)(F) of this Act. In addition, the
23 following modifications shall not apply:
24 (i) the standard exemption allowed under
25 Section 204;
26 (ii) the deduction for net losses allowed

HB4766- 44 -LRB103 36905 HLH 67018 b HB4766 - 44 - LRB103 36905 HLH 67018 b
HB4766 - 44 - LRB103 36905 HLH 67018 b
1 under Section 207;
2 (iii) in the case of an S corporation, the
3 modification under Section 203(b)(2)(S); and
4 (iv) in the case of a partnership, the
5 modifications under Section 203(d)(2)(H) and
6 Section 203(d)(2)(I).
7 (B) Special rule for tiered partnerships. If a
8 taxpayer making the election under paragraph (1) is a
9 partner of another taxpayer making the election under
10 paragraph (1), net income shall be computed as
11 provided in subparagraph (A), except that the taxpayer
12 shall subtract its distributive share of the net
13 income of the electing partnership (including its
14 distributive share of the net income of the electing
15 partnership derived as a distributive share from
16 electing partnerships in which it is a partner).
17 (4) Credit for entity level tax. Each partner or
18 shareholder of a taxpayer making the election under this
19 Section shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed
20 under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act
21 for the taxable year of the partnership or Subchapter S
22 corporation for which an election is in effect ending
23 within or with the taxable year of the partner or
24 shareholder in an amount equal to 4.95% times the partner
25 or shareholder's distributive share of the net income of
26 the electing partnership or Subchapter S corporation, but

HB4766 - 45 - LRB103 36905 HLH 67018 b
1 not to exceed the partner's or shareholder's share of the
2 tax imposed under paragraph (1) which is actually paid by
3 the partnership or Subchapter S corporation. If the
4 taxpayer is a partnership or Subchapter S corporation that
5 is itself a partner of a partnership making the election
6 under paragraph (1), the credit under this paragraph shall
7 be allowed to the taxpayer's partners or shareholders (or
8 if the partner is a partnership or Subchapter S
9 corporation then its partners or shareholders) in
10 accordance with the determination of income and
11 distributive share of income under Sections 702 and 704
12 and Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. If the
13 amount of the credit allowed under this paragraph exceeds
14 the partner's or shareholder's liability for tax imposed
15 under subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act
16 for the taxable year, such excess shall be treated as an
17 overpayment for purposes of Section 909 of this Act.
18 (5) Nonresidents. A nonresident individual who is a
19 partner or shareholder of a partnership or Subchapter S
20 corporation for a taxable year for which an election is in
21 effect under paragraph (1) shall not be required to file
22 an income tax return under this Act for such taxable year
23 if the only source of net income of the individual (or the
24 individual and the individual's spouse in the case of a
25 joint return) is from an entity making the election under
26 paragraph (1) and the credit allowed to the partner or

1 shareholder under paragraph (4) equals or exceeds the
2 individual's liability for the tax imposed under
3 subsections (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act for the
4 taxable year.
5 (6) Liability for tax. Except as provided in this
6 paragraph, a partnership or Subchapter S making the
7 election under paragraph (1) is liable for the
8 entity-level tax imposed under paragraph (2). If the
9 electing partnership or corporation fails to pay the full
10 amount of tax deemed assessed under paragraph (2), the
11 partners or shareholders shall be liable to pay the tax
12 assessed (including penalties and interest). Each partner
13 or shareholder shall be liable for the unpaid assessment
14 based on the ratio of the partner's or shareholder's share
15 of the net income of the partnership over the total net
16 income of the partnership. If the partnership or
17 Subchapter S corporation fails to pay the tax assessed
18 (including penalties and interest) and thereafter an
19 amount of such tax is paid by the partners or
20 shareholders, such amount shall not be collected from the
21 partnership or corporation.
22 (7) Foreign tax. For purposes of the credit allowed
23 under Section 601(b)(3) of this Act, tax paid by a
24 partnership or Subchapter S corporation to another state
25 which, as determined by the Department, is substantially
26 similar to the tax imposed under this subsection, shall be

HB4766 - 47 - LRB103 36905 HLH 67018 b
1 considered tax paid by the partner or shareholder to the
2 extent that the partner's or shareholder's share of the
3 income of the partnership or Subchapter S corporation
4 allocated and apportioned to such other state bears to the
5 total income of the partnership or Subchapter S
6 corporation allocated or apportioned to such other state.
7 (8) Suspension of withholding. The provisions of
8 Section 709.5 of this Act shall not apply to a partnership
9 or Subchapter S corporation for the taxable year for which
10 an election under paragraph (1) is in effect.
11 (9) Requirement to pay estimated tax. For each taxable
12 year for which an election under paragraph (1) is in
13 effect, a partnership or Subchapter S corporation is
14 required to pay estimated tax for such taxable year under
15 Sections 803 and 804 of this Act if the amount payable as
16 estimated tax can reasonably be expected to exceed $500.
17 (10) The provisions of this subsection shall apply
18 only with respect to taxable years for which the
19 limitation on individual deductions applies under Section
20 164(b)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code.

1 (a) For tax years ending on or after December 31, 2025, a
2 taxpayer who qualifies for a quantum information science
3 research and development tax credit pursuant to Section
4 605-1115 of the Department of Commerce and Economic
5 Opportunity Law of the Civil Administrative Code of Illinois,
6 is entitled to a credit against the tax imposed by subsections
7 (a) and (b) of Section 201 of this Act as provided in that
8 Section.
9 (b) For partners and shareholders of subchapter S
10 corporations, the credit under this Section shall be
11 determined in accordance with Section 251.
12 (c) In no event shall a taxpayer be allowed both a credit
13 under this Section for qualifying quantum information science
14 expenditures and the research and development credit provided
15 under subsection (k) of Section 201 for the same expenditures.
16 (d) Any credit awarded under this Section in excess of the
17 taxpayer's tax liability for the taxable year may be carried
18 forward. A taxpayer may elect to have the unused credit shown
19 on its final completed return carried over as a credit against
20 the tax liability for the following 5 taxable years or until
21 the credit has been fully used, whichever occurs first. If a
22 tax liability for the given year still remains, the credit
23 from the next earliest year will then be applied, and so on,
24 until all credits have been used or no tax liability for the
25 given year remains. Any remaining unused credit or credits
26 then will be carried forward to the next following year in

1 which a tax liability is incurred, except that no credit can be
2 carried forward to a year which is more than 5 years after the
3 year in which the expense for which the credit is given was
4 incurred.
5 (e) This Section is exempt from the provisions of Section
6 250 of this Act.
