HB1905 - 14 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 15 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 15 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 15 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 (2) Coupons and discounts. An unreimbursed discount by 2 the seller reduces the sales price of the property so that 3 the discounted sales price determines whether the sales 4 price is within a sales tax holiday price threshold. A 5 coupon or other reduction in the sales price is treated as 6 a discount if the seller is not reimbursed for the coupon 7 or reduction amount by a third party. 8 (3) Splitting of items normally sold together. 9 Articles that are normally sold as a single unit must 10 continue to be sold in that manner. Such articles cannot 11 be priced separately and sold as individual items in order 12 to obtain the reduced rate of tax. For example, a pair of 13 shoes cannot have each shoe sold separately so that the 14 sales price of each shoe is within a sales tax holiday 15 price threshold. 16 (4) Rain checks. A rain check is a procedure that 17 allows a customer to purchase an item at a certain price at 18 a later time because the particular item was out of stock. 19 Eligible property that customers purchase during the Sales 20 Tax Holiday Period with the use of a rain check will 21 qualify for the reduced rate of tax regardless of when the 22 rain check was issued. Issuance of a rain check during the 23 Sales Tax Holiday Period will not qualify eligible 24 property for the reduced rate of tax if the property is 25 actually purchased after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. 26 (5) Exchanges. The procedure for an exchange in HB1905 - 15 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 16 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 16 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 16 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 regards to a sales tax holiday is as follows: 2 (A) If a customer purchases an item of eligible 3 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 4 later exchanges the item for a similar eligible item, 5 even if a different size, different color, or other 6 feature, no additional tax is due even if the exchange 7 is made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. 8 (B) If a customer purchases an item of eligible 9 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 10 after the Sales Tax Holiday Period has ended, the 11 customer returns the item and receives credit on the 12 purchase of a different item, the 6.25% general 13 merchandise sales tax rate is due on the sale of the 14 newly purchased item. 15 (C) If a customer purchases an item of eligible 16 property before the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 17 during the Sales Tax Holiday Period the customer 18 returns the item and receives credit on the purchase 19 of a different item of eligible property, the reduced 20 rate of tax is due on the sale of the new item if the 21 new item is purchased during the Sales Tax Holiday 22 Period. 23 (6) (Blank). 24 (7) Order date and back orders. For the purpose of a 25 sales tax holiday, eligible property qualifies for the 26 reduced rate of tax if: (i) the item is both delivered to HB1905 - 16 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 17 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 17 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 17 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 and paid for by the customer during the Sales Tax Holiday 2 Period or (ii) the customer orders and pays for the item 3 and the seller accepts the order during the Sales Tax 4 Holiday Period for immediate shipment, even if delivery is 5 made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. The seller 6 accepts an order when the seller has taken action to fill 7 the order for immediate shipment. Actions to fill an order 8 include placement of an "in date" stamp on an order or 9 assignment of an "order number" to an order within the 10 Sales Tax Holiday Period. An order is for immediate 11 shipment when the customer does not request delayed 12 shipment. An order is for immediate shipment 13 notwithstanding that the shipment may be delayed because 14 of a backlog of orders or because stock is currently 15 unavailable to, or on back order by, the seller. 16 (8) Returns. For a 60-day period immediately after the 17 Sales Tax Holiday Period, if a customer returns an item 18 that would qualify for the reduced rate of tax, credit for 19 or refund of sales tax shall be given only at the reduced 20 rate unless the customer provides a receipt or invoice 21 that shows tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise 22 rate, or the seller has sufficient documentation to show 23 that tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise rate on 24 the specific item. This 60-day period is set solely for 25 the purpose of designating a time period during which the 26 customer must provide documentation that shows that the HB1905 - 17 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 18 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 18 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 18 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 appropriate sales tax rate was paid on returned 2 merchandise. The 60-day period is not intended to change a 3 seller's policy on the time period during which the seller 4 will accept returns. 5 (c) The Department may implement the provisions of this 6 Section through the use of emergency rules, along with 7 permanent rules filed concurrently with such emergency rules, 8 in accordance with the provisions of Section 5-45 of the 9 Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. For purposes of the 10 Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, the adoption of rules 11 to implement the provisions of this Section shall be deemed an 12 emergency and necessary for the public interest, safety, and 13 welfare. 14 (d) As used in this Section, "sales tax holiday period" 15 means: 16 (1) from August 6, 2010 through August 15, 2010; 17 (2) from August 5, 2022 through August 14, 2022; and 18 (3) beginning in calendar year 2025, the first 7 days 19 in August of each calendar year. 20 (Source: P.A. 102-700, eff. 4-19-22.) 21 (35 ILCS 105/3-10) 22 Sec. 3-10.

For purposes of this 11 Section "fair market value" means the price at which property 12 would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing 13 seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell and 14 both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. The 15 fair market value shall be established by Illinois sales by 16 the taxpayer of the same property as that functionally used or 17 consumed, or if there are no such sales by the taxpayer, then 18 comparable sales or purchases of property of like kind and 19 character in Illinois. 20 Beginning on July 1, 2000 and through December 31, 2000, 21 with respect to motor fuel, as defined in Section 1.1 of the 22 Motor Fuel Tax Law, and gasohol, as defined in Section 3-40 of 23 the Use Tax Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%. 24 During the sales tax holiday period set forth in Section 25 3-6, Beginning on August 6, 2010 through August 15, 2010, and 26 beginning again on August 5, 2022 through August 14, 2022, HB1905 - 19 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 20 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 20 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 20 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 with respect to sales tax holiday items as defined in Section 2 3-6 of this Act, the tax is imposed at the rate of 1.25%. 3 With respect to gasohol, the tax imposed by this Act 4 applies to (i) 70% of the proceeds of sales made on or after 5 January 1, 1990, and before July 1, 2003, (ii) 80% of the 6 proceeds of sales made on or after July 1, 2003 and on or 7 before July 1, 2017, (iii) 100% of the proceeds of sales made 8 after July 1, 2017 and prior to January 1, 2024, (iv) 90% of 9 the proceeds of sales made on or after January 1, 2024 and on 10 or before December 31, 2028, and (v) 100% of the proceeds of 11 sales made after December 31, 2028.

On 17 and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of 18 the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department shall 19 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to 20 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar 21 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the 22 month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such 23 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 24 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete 25 calendar quarter period is less than $20,000.

Quarter monthly payment status shall 9 be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 10 1.25% in Public Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the 11 104th General Assembly on sales tax holiday items had not 12 occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, 13 2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's 14 liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" 15 shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public 16 Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the 104th General 17 Assembly on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. Quarter 18 monthly payment status shall be determined under this 19 paragraph as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 20 on food for human consumption that is to be consumed off the 21 premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic beverages, 22 food consisting of or infused with adult use cannabis, soft 23 drinks, and food that has been prepared for immediate 24 consumption) had not occurred.

If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at 4 the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the 5 taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the 6 difference between the minimum amount due and the amount of 7 such quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except 8 insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that 9 month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments 10 previously due as provided in this Section. The Department 11 shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the 12 quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment 13 dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly 14 basis. 15 If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds 16 the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers' 17 Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the 18 Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return, 19 the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum 20 no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which 21 memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department 22 in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the 23 taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a 24 similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax 25 Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, 26 in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be HB1905 - 37 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 38 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 38 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 38 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess 2 payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made 3 after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued, 4 unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made, 5 the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax 6 liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the 7 Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act, 8 the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in 9 accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by 10 the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that 11 all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the 12 taxpayer, the taxpayer's vendor's discount shall be reduced, 13 if necessary, to reflect the difference between the credit 14 taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be liable 15 for penalties and interest on such difference. 16 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly 17 return and if the retailer'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 21 year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for 22 April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of 23 such year; with the return for July, August and September of a 24 given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the 25 return for October, November and December of a given year 26 being due by January 20 of the following year.

The transaction reporting 20 return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax 21 that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the 22 Department by way of the State agency with which, or State 23 officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be 24 titled or registered (if titling or registration is required) 25 if the Department and such agency or State officer determine 26 that this procedure will expedite the processing of HB1905 - 42 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 43 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 43 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 43 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 applications for title or 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 tax receipt 7 (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied 8 that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser 9 may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with 10 whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property 11 that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in 12 support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois 13 certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such 14 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 25 of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the 26 retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not HB1905 - 43 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 44 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 44 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 44 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 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 vendor's 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 On and after January 1, 2025, with respect to the lease of 16 trailers, other than semitrailers as defined in Section 1-187 17 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, that are required to be 18 registered with an agency of this State and that are subject to 19 the tax on lease receipts under this Act, notwithstanding any 20 other provision of this Act to the contrary, for the purpose of 21 reporting and paying tax under this Act on those lease 22 receipts, lessors shall file returns in addition to and 23 separate from the transaction reporting return. Lessors shall 24 file those lease returns and make payment to the Department by 25 electronic means on or before the 20th day of each month 26 following the month, quarter, or year, as applicable, in which HB1905 - 44 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 45 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 45 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 45 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 lease receipts were received. All lease receipts received by 2 the lessor from the lease of those trailers during the same 3 reporting period shall be reported and tax shall be paid on a 4 single return form to be prescribed by the Department. 5 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the 6 selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and 7 the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal 8 property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to 9 the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the 10 purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When 11 filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax 12 to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax 13 so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax 14 which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the 15 Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax 16 to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by 17 such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the 18 amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no 19 deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the 20 purchaser. 21 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also 22 include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax 23 covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible 24 personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer, 25 but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected 26 from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall HB1905 - 45 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 46 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 46 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 46 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such 2 return. 3 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the 4 Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint 5 return which will enable retailers, who are required to file 6 returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax 7 Act, to furnish all the return information required by both 8 Acts on the one form. 9 Where the retailer has more than one business registered 10 with the Department under separate registration under this 11 Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a 12 single return covering all such registered businesses, but 13 shall file separate returns for each such registered business. 14 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 15 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special 16 fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, the net 17 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax 18 imposed under this Act. 19 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 20 pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the 21 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 22 general rate on the selling price of tangible personal 23 property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a 24 retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of this 25 State's government. 26 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall HB1905 - 46 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 47 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 47 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 47 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special 2 fund in the State Treasury, 20% of the net revenue realized for 3 the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on the selling 4 price of tangible personal property, other than (i) tangible 5 personal property which is purchased outside Illinois at 6 retail from a retailer and which is titled or registered by an 7 agency of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold 8 on or after December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel 9 only applies for so long as the revenue use requirements of 49 10 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. 11 For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each 12 month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program 13 Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month 14 from the 6.25% general rate on the selling price of aviation 15 fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be 16 required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation 17 fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the 18 Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only 19 pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the 20 Aviation Fuels Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long 21 as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 22 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. 23 Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall 24 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the 25 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% 26 rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.

Notwithstanding any other provision of 2 this Act, the reduced rate of tax under Section 3-10 of this 3 Act for clothing and school supplies shall be administered by 4 the Department under the provisions of this subsection (b). 5 (1) Bundled sales. Items that qualify for the reduced 6 rate of tax that are bundled together with items that do 7 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax and that are sold 8 for one itemized price will be subject to the reduced rate 9 of tax only if the value of the items that qualify for the 10 reduced rate of tax exceeds the value of the items that do 11 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax. 12 (2) Coupons and discounts. An unreimbursed discount by 13 the seller reduces the sales price of the property so that 14 the discounted sales price determines whether the sales 15 price is within a sales tax holiday price threshold. A 16 coupon or other reduction in the sales price is treated as 17 a discount if the seller is not reimbursed for the coupon 18 or reduction amount by a third party. 19 (3) Splitting of items normally sold together. 20 Articles that are normally sold as a single unit must 21 continue to be sold in that manner. Such articles cannot 22 be priced separately and sold as individual items in order 23 to obtain the reduced rate of tax. For example, a pair of 24 shoes cannot have each shoe sold separately so that the 25 sales price of each shoe is within a sales tax holiday 26 price threshold.

A rain check is a procedure that 2 allows a customer to purchase an item at a certain price at 3 a later time because the particular item was out of stock. 4 Eligible property that customers purchase during the Sales 5 Tax Holiday Period with the use of a rain check will 6 qualify for the reduced rate of tax regardless of when the 7 rain check was issued. Issuance of a rain check during the 8 Sales Tax Holiday Period will not qualify eligible 9 property for the reduced rate of tax if the property is 10 actually purchased after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. 11 (5) Exchanges. The procedure for an exchange in 12 regards to a sales tax holiday is as follows: 13 (A) If a customer purchases an item of eligible 14 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 15 later exchanges the item for a similar eligible item, 16 even if a different size, different color, or other 17 feature, no additional tax is due even if the exchange 18 is made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. 19 (B) If a customer purchases an item of eligible 20 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 21 after the Sales Tax Holiday Period has ended, the 22 customer returns the item and receives credit on the 23 purchase of a different item, the 6.25% general 24 merchandise sales tax rate is due on the sale of the 25 newly purchased item. 26 (C) If a customer purchases an item of eligible HB1905 - 66 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 67 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 67 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 67 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 property before the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but 2 during the Sales Tax Holiday Period the customer 3 returns the item and receives credit on the purchase 4 of a different item of eligible property, the reduced 5 rate of tax is due on the sale of the new item if the 6 new item is purchased during the Sales Tax Holiday 7 Period. 8 (6) (Blank). 9 (7) Order date and back orders. For the purpose of a 10 sales tax holiday, eligible property qualifies for the 11 reduced rate of tax if: (i) the item is both delivered to 12 and paid for by the customer during the Sales Tax Holiday 13 Period or (ii) the customer orders and pays for the item 14 and the seller accepts the order during the Sales Tax 15 Holiday Period for immediate shipment, even if delivery is 16 made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. The seller 17 accepts an order when the seller has taken action to fill 18 the order for immediate shipment. Actions to fill an order 19 include placement of an "in date" stamp on an order or 20 assignment of an "order number" to an order within the 21 Sales Tax Holiday Period. An order is for immediate 22 shipment when the customer does not request delayed 23 shipment. An order is for immediate shipment 24 notwithstanding that the shipment may be delayed because 25 of a backlog of orders or because stock is currently 26 unavailable to, or on back order by, the seller.

For a 60-day period immediately after the 2 Sales Tax Holiday Period, if a customer returns an item 3 that would qualify for the reduced rate of tax, credit for 4 or refund of sales tax shall be given only at the reduced 5 rate unless the customer provides a receipt or invoice 6 that shows tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise 7 rate, or the seller has sufficient documentation to show 8 that tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise rate on 9 the specific item. This 60-day period is set solely for 10 the purpose of designating a time period during which the 11 customer must provide documentation that shows that the 12 appropriate sales tax rate was paid on returned 13 merchandise. The 60-day period is not intended to change a 14 seller's policy on the time period during which the seller 15 will accept returns. 16 (c) The Department may implement the provisions of this 17 Section through the use of emergency rules, along with 18 permanent rules filed concurrently with such emergency rules, 19 in accordance with the provisions of Section 5-45 of the 20 Illinois Administrative Procedure Act.

The 12 Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the 13 mandate of this paragraph. 14 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer 15 wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment 16 of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before 17 the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has 18 not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the 19 fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department 20 being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit 21 the information required by the transaction reporting return 22 and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to 23 the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption 24 determination, in which event the transaction reporting return 25 and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be 26 credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account HB1905 - 91 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 92 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 92 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 92 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 with the Department, but without the vendor's discount 2 provided for in this Section being allowed.

However, if a 25 taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in 26 the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer HB1905 - 97 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 98 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 98 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 98 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the 2 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 3 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the 4 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. 5 On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement 6 of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by 7 taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 8 or more as determined in the manner provided above shall 9 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to 10 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar 11 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the 12 month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such 13 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 14 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete 15 calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a 16 taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in 17 the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer 18 to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the 19 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 20 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the 21 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. 22 The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status 23 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not 24 likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall 25 be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 26 0% in Public Act 102-700 on food for human consumption that is HB1905 - 98 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 99 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 99 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 99 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 to be consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than 2 alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult 3 use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for 4 immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly 5 payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and 6 through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for 7 the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be 8 determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 9 had not occurred.

For quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, 14 2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's 15 liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" 16 shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public 17 Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the 104th General 18 Assembly on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. If any 19 such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the 20 amount required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be 21 liable for penalties and interest on the difference between 22 the minimum amount due as a payment and the amount of such 23 quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except 24 insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that 25 month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments 26 previously due as provided in this Section. The Department HB1905 - 99 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 100 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 100 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 100 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the 2 quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment 3 dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly 4 basis. 5 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1, 6 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make 7 quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who 8 is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit 9 prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in 10 excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 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 such liability is incurred. If the month 15 during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to 16 September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221), 17 each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the 18 taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month 19 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after 20 January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 21 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 22 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month 23 of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such 24 tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, 25 each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the 26 taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the HB1905 - 100 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 101 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 101 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 101 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the 2 preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments 3 shall be credited against the final tax liability of the 4 taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or 5 Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the 6 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the 7 Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until 8 such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during 9 the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. 10 If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or 11 in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for 12 penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as 13 the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in 14 excess of the minimum payments previously due. 15 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after 16 October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is 17 required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above, 18 any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to 19 collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid 20 taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the 21 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return 22 with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make 23 payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd, 24 and last day of the month during which the liability is 25 incurred.

The amount of the quarter monthly payments 3 shall be credited against the final tax liability of the 4 taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or 5 Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the 6 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the 7 Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the 8 taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the 9 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of 10 highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less 11 than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly 12 liability to the Department as computed for each calendar 13 quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less 14 than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid 15 at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be 16 liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except 17 insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that 18 month in excess of the minimum payments previously due. 19 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the 20 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the 21 Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, as 22 shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if 23 requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit 24 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment.

If no such request is made, the 4 taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability 5 subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act, 6 the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, or the Service 7 Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and 8 regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department 9 subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit 10 taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 11 vendor's discount shall be reduced, if necessary, to reflect 12 the difference between the credit taken and that actually due, 13 and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest 14 on such difference. 15 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under 16 Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability 17 to the Department under this Act for the month for which the 18 taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the 19 taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. 20 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 21 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the 22 State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue 23 realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax imposed under 24 this Act. 25 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 26 pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a special HB1905 - 103 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905- 104 -LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 104 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b HB1905 - 104 - LRB104 07490 HLH 17533 b 1 fund in the State treasury which is hereby created, 4% of the 2 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 3 general rate other than aviation fuel sold on or after 4 December 1, 2019.
