The transaction reporting 11 return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax 12 that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the 13 Department by way of the State agency with which, or State 14 officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be 15 titled or registered (if titling or registration is required) 16 if the Department and such agency or State officer determine 17 that this procedure will expedite the processing of 18 applications for title or registration. 19 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer 20 shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit 21 satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is 22 the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the 23 Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt 24 (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied 25 that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser 26 may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with HB2989 - 43 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 44 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 44 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 44 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property 2 that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in 3 support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois 4 certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such 5 tangible personal property. 6 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this 7 Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the 8 retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other 9 evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration 10 is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has 11 paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. 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 tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the 17 retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not 18 paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact 19 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 HB2989 - 44 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 45 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 45 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 45 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 with the Department, but without the vendor's discount 2 provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays 3 the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the 4 same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted 5 if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer. 6 On and after January 1, 2025, with respect to the lease of 7 trailers, other than semitrailers as defined in Section 1-187 8 of the Illinois Vehicle Code, that are required to be 9 registered with an agency of this State and that are subject to 10 the tax on lease receipts under this Act, notwithstanding any 11 other provision of this Act to the contrary, for the purpose of 12 reporting and paying tax under this Act on those lease 13 receipts, lessors shall file returns in addition to and 14 separate from the transaction reporting return. Lessors shall 15 file those lease returns and make payment to the Department by 16 electronic means on or before the 20th day of each month 17 following the month, quarter, or year, as applicable, in which 18 lease receipts were received. All lease receipts received by 19 the lessor from the lease of those trailers during the same 20 reporting period shall be reported and tax shall be paid on a 21 single return form to be prescribed by the Department. 22 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the 23 selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and 24 the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal 25 property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to 26 the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the HB2989 - 45 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 46 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 46 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 46 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When 2 filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax 3 to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax 4 so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax 5 which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the 6 Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax 7 to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by 8 such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the 9 amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no 10 deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the 11 purchaser. 12 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also 13 include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax 14 covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible 15 personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer, 16 but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected 17 from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall 18 remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such 19 return. 20 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the 21 Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint 22 return which will enable retailers, who are required to file 23 returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax 24 Act, to furnish all the return information required by both 25 Acts on the one form. 26 Where the retailer has more than one business registered HB2989 - 46 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 47 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 47 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 47 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 with the Department under separate registration under this 2 Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a 3 single return covering all such registered businesses, but 4 shall file separate returns for each such registered business. 5 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 6 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special 7 fund in the State Treasury which is hereby created, the net 8 revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax 9 imposed under this Act. 10 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 11 pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund 4% of the 12 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 13 general rate on the selling price of tangible personal 14 property which is purchased outside Illinois at retail from a 15 retailer and which is titled or registered by an agency of this 16 State's government. 17 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 18 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund, a special 19 fund in the State Treasury, 20% of the net revenue realized for 20 the preceding month from the 6.25% general rate on the selling 21 price of tangible personal property, other than (i) tangible 22 personal property which is purchased outside Illinois at 23 retail from a retailer and which is titled or registered by an 24 agency of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold 25 on or after December 1, 2019.

The Department shall only 10 pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the 11 Aviation Fuels Sales Tax Refund Fund under this Act for so long 12 as the revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 13 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State. 14 Beginning August 1, 2000, each month the Department shall 15 pay into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund 100% of the 16 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 1.25% 17 rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol.

When determining the discount 10 allowed under this Section, retailers shall include the amount 11 of tax that would have been due at the 1% rate but for the 0% 12 rate imposed under Public Act 102-700. When determining the 13 discount allowed under this Section, retailers shall include 14 the amount of tax that would have been due at the 6.25% rate 15 but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales tax holiday items under 16 Public Act 102-700.

In the case of retailers who report 22 and pay the tax on a transaction by transaction basis, as 23 provided in this Section, such discount shall be taken with 24 each such tax remittance instead of when such retailer files 25 his periodic return, but, beginning with returns due on or 26 after January 1, 2025, the vendor's discount allowed under HB2989 - 95 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 96 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 96 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 96 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 this Section and the Use Tax Act, including any local tax 2 administered by the Department and reported on the same 3 transaction return, shall not exceed $1,000 per month for all 4 transaction returns filed during the month. The discount 5 allowed under this Section is allowed only for returns that 6 are filed in the manner required by this Act.

If the month during which such tax 15 liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985 and 16 prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount 17 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the 18 month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same 19 calendar month of the preceding year.

If the month 25 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after 26 January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or HB2989 - 97 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 98 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 98 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 98 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal 2 to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 3 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of 4 the preceding year. If the month during which such tax 5 liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and 6 prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount 7 equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the 8 month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar 9 month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual 10 liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount 11 of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the 12 final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month. 13 Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of 14 the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by 15 taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000 16 or more as determined in the manner provided above shall 17 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to 18 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar 19 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the 20 month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such 21 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 22 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete 23 calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a 24 taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in 25 the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer 26 to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the HB2989 - 98 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 99 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 99 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 99 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000 2 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the 3 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. 4 On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement 5 of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by 6 taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000 7 or more as determined in the manner provided above shall 8 continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to 9 the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar 10 quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the 11 month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such 12 taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as 13 computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete 14 calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a 15 taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in 16 the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer 17 to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the 18 reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000 19 threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the 20 Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status. 21 The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status 22 unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not 23 likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall 24 be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 25 0% in Public Act 102-700 on food for human consumption that is 26 to be consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than HB2989 - 99 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 100 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 100 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 100 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult 2 use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for 3 immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly 4 payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and 5 through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for 6 the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be 7 determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700 8 had not occurred.

Quarter monthly payment status shall be determined 12 under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in this 13 amendatory Act of the 104th General Assembly on sales tax 14 holiday items had not occurred. For quarter monthly payments 15 due on or after July 1, 2023 and through June 30, 2024, "25% of 16 the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the 17 preceding year" shall be determined as if the rate reduction 18 to 1.25% in Public Act 102-700 on sales tax holiday items had 19 not occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after 20 July 1, 2025 and through June 30, 2026, "25% of the taxpayer's 21 liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year" 22 shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in this 23 amendatory Act of the 104th General Assembly on sales tax 24 holiday items had not occurred. If any such quarter monthly 25 payment is not paid at the time or in the amount required by 26 this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable for penalties HB2989 - 100 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 101 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 101 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 101 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 and interest on the difference between the minimum amount due 2 as a payment and the amount of such quarter monthly payment 3 actually and timely paid, except insofar as the taxpayer has 4 previously made payments for that month to the Department in 5 excess of the minimum payments previously due as provided in 6 this Section. The Department shall make reasonable rules and 7 regulations to govern the quarter monthly payment amount and 8 quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers who file on other 9 than a calendar monthly basis. 10 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1, 11 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make 12 quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who 13 is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit 14 prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in 15 excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete 16 calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as 17 required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the 18 Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the 19 month during which such liability is incurred. If the month 20 during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to 21 September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221), 22 each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the 23 taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month 24 during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after 25 January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to 26 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or HB2989 - 101 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 102 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 102 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 102 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month 2 of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such 3 tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987, 4 each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the 5 taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the 6 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the 7 preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments 8 shall be credited against the final tax liability of the 9 taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or 10 Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the 11 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the 12 Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until 13 such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during 14 the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less. 15 If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or 16 in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for 17 penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as 18 the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in 19 excess of the minimum payments previously due. 20 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after 21 October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is 22 required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above, 23 any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to 24 collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid 25 taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the 26 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return HB2989 - 102 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 103 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 103 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 103 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make 2 payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd, 3 and last day of the month during which the liability is 4 incurred. Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of 5 the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the 6 taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the 7 preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments 8 shall be credited against the final tax liability of the 9 taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or 10 Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the 11 requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the 12 Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the 13 taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the 14 preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of 15 highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less 16 than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly 17 liability to the Department as computed for each calendar 18 quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less 19 than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid 20 at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be 21 liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except 22 insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that 23 month in excess of the minimum payments previously due. 24 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the 25 taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the 26 Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax Act, as HB2989 - 103 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 104 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 104 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 104 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if 2 requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit 3 memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The 4 credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by 5 the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax 6 Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, or the Service Use Tax 7 Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be 8 prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the 9 taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability 10 subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act, 11 the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, or the Service 12 Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and 13 regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department 14 subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit 15 taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's 16 vendor's discount shall be reduced, if necessary, to reflect 17 the difference between the credit taken and that actually due, 18 and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest 19 on such difference. 20 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under 21 Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability 22 to the Department under this Act for the month for which the 23 taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the 24 taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess. 25 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 26 pay into the Local Government Tax Fund, a special fund in the HB2989 - 104 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989- 105 -LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 105 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b HB2989 - 105 - LRB104 10865 HLH 20947 b 1 State treasury which is hereby created, the net revenue 2 realized for the preceding month from the 1% tax imposed under 3 this Act. 4 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall 5 pay into the County and Mass Transit District Fund, a special 6 fund in the State treasury which is hereby created, 4% of the 7 net revenue realized for the preceding month from the 6.25% 8 general rate other than aviation fuel sold on or after 9 December 1, 2019.
