17 (b) Administration. Notwithstanding any other provision of
18this Act, the reduced rate of tax under Section 3-10 of this
19Act for clothing and school supplies shall be administered by
20the Department under the provisions of this subsection (b).
21 (1) Bundled sales. Items that qualify for the reduced
22 rate of tax that are bundled together with items that do
23 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax and that are sold
24 for one itemized price will be subject to the reduced rate
25 of tax only if the value of the items that qualify for the
26 reduced rate of tax exceeds the value of the items that do

HB3201- 15 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax.
2 (2) Coupons and discounts. An unreimbursed discount by
3 the seller reduces the sales price of the property so that
4 the discounted sales price determines whether the sales
5 price is within a sales tax holiday price threshold. A
6 coupon or other reduction in the sales price is treated as
7 a discount if the seller is not reimbursed for the coupon
8 or reduction amount by a third party.
9 (3) Splitting of items normally sold together.
10 Articles that are normally sold as a single unit must
11 continue to be sold in that manner. Such articles cannot
12 be priced separately and sold as individual items in order
13 to obtain the reduced rate of tax. For example, a pair of
14 shoes cannot have each shoe sold separately so that the
15 sales price of each shoe is within a sales tax holiday
16 price threshold.
17 (4) Rain checks. A rain check is a procedure that
18 allows a customer to purchase an item at a certain price at
19 a later time because the particular item was out of stock.
20 Eligible property that customers purchase during the Sales
21 Tax Holiday Period with the use of a rain check will
22 qualify for the reduced rate of tax regardless of when the
23 rain check was issued. Issuance of a rain check during the
24 Sales Tax Holiday Period will not qualify eligible
25 property for the reduced rate of tax if the property is
26 actually purchased after the Sales Tax Holiday Period.

HB3201- 16 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 (5) Exchanges. The procedure for an exchange in
2 regards to a sales tax holiday is as follows:
3 (A) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
4 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
5 later exchanges the item for a similar eligible item,
6 even if a different size, different color, or other
7 feature, no additional tax is due even if the exchange
8 is made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period.
9 (B) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
10 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
11 after the Sales Tax Holiday Period has ended, the
12 customer returns the item and receives credit on the
13 purchase of a different item, the 6.25% general
14 merchandise sales tax rate is due on the sale of the
15 newly purchased item.
16 (C) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
17 property before the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
18 during the Sales Tax Holiday Period the customer
19 returns the item and receives credit on the purchase
20 of a different item of eligible property, the reduced
21 rate of tax is due on the sale of the new item if the
22 new item is purchased during the Sales Tax Holiday
23 Period.
24 (6) (Blank).
25 (7) Order date and back orders. For the purpose of a
26 sales tax holiday, eligible property qualifies for the

HB3201- 17 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 reduced rate of tax if: (i) the item is both delivered to
2 and paid for by the customer during the Sales Tax Holiday
3 Period or (ii) the customer orders and pays for the item
4 and the seller accepts the order during the Sales Tax
5 Holiday Period for immediate shipment, even if delivery is
6 made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. The seller
7 accepts an order when the seller has taken action to fill
8 the order for immediate shipment. Actions to fill an order
9 include placement of an "in date" stamp on an order or
10 assignment of an "order number" to an order within the
11 Sales Tax Holiday Period. An order is for immediate
12 shipment when the customer does not request delayed
13 shipment. An order is for immediate shipment
14 notwithstanding that the shipment may be delayed because
15 of a backlog of orders or because stock is currently
16 unavailable to, or on back order by, the seller.
17 (8) Returns. For a 60-day period immediately after the
18 Sales Tax Holiday Period, if a customer returns an item
19 that would qualify for the reduced rate of tax, credit for
20 or refund of sales tax shall be given only at the reduced
21 rate unless the customer provides a receipt or invoice
22 that shows tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise
23 rate, or the seller has sufficient documentation to show
24 that tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise rate on
25 the specific item. This 60-day period is set solely for
26 the purpose of designating a time period during which the

HB3201- 18 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 customer must provide documentation that shows that the
2 appropriate sales tax rate was paid on returned
3 merchandise. The 60-day period is not intended to change a
4 seller's policy on the time period during which the seller
5 will accept returns.
6 (c) The Department may implement the provisions of this
7Section through the use of emergency rules, along with
8permanent rules filed concurrently with such emergency rules,
9in accordance with the provisions of Section 5-45 of the
10Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. For purposes of the
11Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, the adoption of rules
12to implement the provisions of this Section shall be deemed an

26The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status

HB3201- 35 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not
2likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall
3be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to
41.25% in Public Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the
5103rd 102nd General Assembly on sales tax holiday items had
6not occurred. For quarter monthly payments due on or after
7July 1, 2023 and through June 30, 2025 June 30, 2024, "25% of
8the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
9preceding year" shall be determined as if the rate reduction
10to 1.25% in Public Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the
11103rd 102nd General Assembly on sales tax holiday items had
12not occurred. Quarter monthly payment status shall be
13determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 0%
14in Public Act 102-700 this amendatory Act of the 102nd General
15Assembly on food for human consumption that is to be consumed
16off the premises where it is sold (other than alcoholic
17beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult use
18cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for
19immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly
20payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and
21through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for
22the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be
23determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700
24this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly had not
25occurred. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at
26the time or in the amount required by this Section, then the

HB3201- 36 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1taxpayer shall be liable for penalties and interest on the
2difference between the minimum amount due and the amount of
3such quarter monthly payment actually and timely paid, except
4insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that
5month to the Department in excess of the minimum payments
6previously due as provided in this Section. The Department
7shall make reasonable rules and regulations to govern the
8quarter monthly payment amount and quarter monthly payment
9dates for taxpayers who file on other than a calendar monthly
10basis.
11 If any such payment provided for in this Section exceeds
12the taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Retailers'
13Occupation Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act and the
14Service Use Tax Act, as shown by an original monthly return,
15the Department shall issue to the taxpayer a credit memorandum
16no later than 30 days after the date of payment, which
17memorandum may be submitted by the taxpayer to the Department
18in payment of tax liability subsequently to be remitted by the
19taxpayer to the Department or be assigned by the taxpayer to a
20similar taxpayer under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax
21Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
22in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
23prescribed by the Department, except that if such excess
24payment is shown on an original monthly return and is made
25after December 31, 1986, no credit memorandum shall be issued,
26unless requested by the taxpayer. If no such request is made,

HB3201- 37 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax
2liability subsequently to be remitted by the taxpayer to the
3Department under this Act, the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act,
4the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act, in
5accordance with reasonable rules and regulations prescribed by
6the Department. If the Department subsequently determines that
7all or any part of the credit taken was not actually due to the
8taxpayer, the taxpayer's 2.1% or 1.75% vendor's discount shall
9be reduced by 2.1% or 1.75% of the difference between the
10credit taken and that actually due, and the taxpayer shall be
11liable for penalties and interest on such difference.
12 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly
13return and if the retailer's average monthly tax liability to
14the Department does not exceed $200, the Department may
15authorize his returns to be filed on a quarter annual basis,
16with the return for January, February, and March of a given
17year being due by April 20 of such year; with the return for
18April, May and June of a given year being due by July 20 of
19such year; with the return for July, August and September of a
20given year being due by October 20 of such year, and with the
21return for October, November and December of a given year
22being due by January 20 of the following year.
23 If the retailer is otherwise required to file a monthly or
24quarterly return and if the retailer's average monthly tax
25liability to the Department does not exceed $50, the
26Department may authorize his returns to be filed on an annual

HB3201- 38 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1basis, with the return for a given year being due by January 20
2of the following year.
3 Such quarter annual and annual returns, as to form and
4substance, shall be subject to the same requirements as
5monthly returns.
6 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Act concerning
7the time within which a retailer may file his return, in the
8case of any retailer who ceases to engage in a kind of business
9which makes him responsible for filing returns under this Act,
10such retailer shall file a final return under this Act with the
11Department not more than one month after discontinuing such
12business.
13 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
14aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
15an agency of this State, except as otherwise provided in this
16Section, every retailer selling this kind of tangible personal
17property shall file, with the Department, upon a form to be
18prescribed and supplied by the Department, a separate return
19for each such item of tangible personal property which the
20retailer sells, except that if, in the same transaction, (i) a
21retailer of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles or trailers
22transfers more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
23trailer to another aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle or
24trailer retailer for the purpose of resale or (ii) a retailer
25of aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles, or trailers transfers
26more than one aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicle, or trailer

HB3201- 39 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1to a purchaser for use as a qualifying rolling stock as
2provided in Section 3-55 of this Act, then that seller may
3report the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor
4vehicles or trailers involved in that transaction to the
5Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
6return form. For purposes of this Section, "watercraft" means
7a Class 2, Class 3, or Class 4 watercraft as defined in Section
83-2 of the Boat Registration and Safety Act, a personal
9watercraft, or any boat equipped with an inboard motor.
10 In addition, with respect to motor vehicles, watercraft,
11aircraft, and trailers that are required to be registered with
12an agency of this State, every person who is engaged in the
13business of leasing or renting such items and who, in
14connection with such business, sells any such item to a
15retailer for the purpose of resale is, notwithstanding any
16other provision of this Section to the contrary, authorized to
17meet the return-filing requirement of this Act by reporting
18the transfer of all the aircraft, watercraft, motor vehicles,
19or trailers transferred for resale during a month to the
20Department on the same uniform invoice-transaction reporting
21return form on or before the 20th of the month following the
22month in which the transfer takes place. Notwithstanding any
23other provision of this Act to the contrary, all returns filed
24under this paragraph must be filed by electronic means in the
25manner and form as required by the Department.
26 The transaction reporting return in the case of motor

HB3201- 40 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1vehicles or trailers that are required to be registered with
2an agency of this State, shall be the same document as the
3Uniform Invoice referred to in Section 5-402 of the Illinois
4Vehicle Code and must show the name and address of the seller;
5the name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the
6selling price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
7traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
8for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
9extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for
10the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
11deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
12price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
13such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
14purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
15evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
16if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
17sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such
18other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the
19Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the
20Department may reasonably require.
21 The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
22and aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
23name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
24price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
25traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
26for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the

HB3201- 41 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1extent to which Section 2 of this Act allows an exemption for
2the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
3deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
4price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
5such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
6purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
7evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
8if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
9sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
10such other information as the Department may reasonably
11require.
12 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
13than 20 days after the date of delivery of the item that is
14being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
15than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
16return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the tax
17that is imposed by this Act may be transmitted to the
18Department by way of the State agency with which, or State
19officer with whom, the tangible personal property must be
20titled or registered (if titling or registration is required)
21if the Department and such agency or State officer determine
22that this procedure will expedite the processing of
23applications for title or registration.
24 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
25shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
26satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is

HB3201- 42 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the
2Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a tax receipt
3(or a certificate of exemption if the Department is satisfied
4that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such purchaser
5may submit to the agency with which, or State officer with
6whom, he must title or register the tangible personal property
7that is involved (if titling or registration is required) in
8support of such purchaser's application for an Illinois
9certificate or other evidence of title or registration to such
10tangible personal property.
11 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
12Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
13retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
14evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
15is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
16paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
17Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
18mandate of this paragraph.
19 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
20wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
21of tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before the
22retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has not
23paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the fact
24of such delay by the retailer, and may (upon the Department
25being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
26the information required by the transaction reporting return

HB3201- 43 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to
2the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
3determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
4and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
5credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
6with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
7provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
8the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
9same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
10if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
11 Where a retailer collects the tax with respect to the
12selling price of tangible personal property which he sells and
13the purchaser thereafter returns such tangible personal
14property and the retailer refunds the selling price thereof to
15the purchaser, such retailer shall also refund, to the
16purchaser, the tax so collected from the purchaser. When
17filing his return for the period in which he refunds such tax
18to the purchaser, the retailer may deduct the amount of the tax
19so refunded by him to the purchaser from any other use tax
20which such retailer may be required to pay or remit to the
21Department, as shown by such return, if the amount of the tax
22to be deducted was previously remitted to the Department by
23such retailer. If the retailer has not previously remitted the
24amount of such tax to the Department, he is entitled to no
25deduction under this Act upon refunding such tax to the
26purchaser.

HB3201- 44 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 Any retailer filing a return under this Section shall also
2include (for the purpose of paying tax thereon) the total tax
3covered by such return upon the selling price of tangible
4personal property purchased by him at retail from a retailer,
5but as to which the tax imposed by this Act was not collected
6from the retailer filing such return, and such retailer shall
7remit the amount of such tax to the Department when filing such
8return.
9 If experience indicates such action to be practicable, the
10Department may prescribe and furnish a combination or joint
11return which will enable retailers, who are required to file
12returns hereunder and also under the Retailers' Occupation Tax
13Act, to furnish all the return information required by both
14Acts on the one form.
15 Where the retailer has more than one business registered
16with the Department under separate registration under this
17Act, such retailer may not file each return that is due as a
18single return covering all such registered businesses, but
19shall file separate returns for each such registered business.
20 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall

13agency of this State's government and (ii) aviation fuel sold
14on or after December 1, 2019. This exception for aviation fuel

16U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C. 47133 are binding on the State.
17 For aviation fuel sold on or after December 1, 2019, each
18month the Department shall pay into the State Aviation Program
19Fund 20% of the net revenue realized for the preceding month

21fuel, less an amount estimated by the Department to be
22required for refunds of the 20% portion of the tax on aviation
23fuel under this Act, which amount shall be deposited into the
24Aviation Fuel Sales Tax Refund Fund. The Department shall only
25pay moneys into the State Aviation Program Fund and the

6rate on the selling price of motor fuel and gasohol. If, in any
7month, the tax on sales tax holiday items, as defined in
8Section 3-6, is imposed at the rate of 1.25%, then the
9Department shall pay 100% of the net revenue realized for that
10month from the 1.25% rate on the selling price of sales tax
11holiday items into the State and Local Sales Tax Reform Fund.
12 Beginning January 1, 1990, each month the Department shall
13pay into the Local Government Tax Fund 16% of the net revenue

24 (b) Administration. Notwithstanding any other provision of

26Act for clothing and school supplies shall be administered by

HB3201- 64 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the Department under the provisions of this subsection (b).
2 (1) Bundled sales. Items that qualify for the reduced
3 rate of tax that are bundled together with items that do
4 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax and that are sold
5 for one itemized price will be subject to the reduced rate
6 of tax only if the value of the items that qualify for the
7 reduced rate of tax exceeds the value of the items that do
8 not qualify for the reduced rate of tax.
9 (2) Coupons and discounts. An unreimbursed discount by
10 the seller reduces the sales price of the property so that
11 the discounted sales price determines whether the sales
12 price is within a sales tax holiday price threshold. A
13 coupon or other reduction in the sales price is treated as
14 a discount if the seller is not reimbursed for the coupon
15 or reduction amount by a third party.
16 (3) Splitting of items normally sold together.
17 Articles that are normally sold as a single unit must
18 continue to be sold in that manner. Such articles cannot
19 be priced separately and sold as individual items in order
20 to obtain the reduced rate of tax. For example, a pair of
21 shoes cannot have each shoe sold separately so that the
22 sales price of each shoe is within a sales tax holiday
23 price threshold.
24 (4) Rain checks. A rain check is a procedure that
25 allows a customer to purchase an item at a certain price at
26 a later time because the particular item was out of stock.

HB3201- 65 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 Eligible property that customers purchase during the Sales
2 Tax Holiday Period with the use of a rain check will
3 qualify for the reduced rate of tax regardless of when the
4 rain check was issued. Issuance of a rain check during the
5 Sales Tax Holiday Period will not qualify eligible
6 property for the reduced rate of tax if the property is
7 actually purchased after the Sales Tax Holiday Period.
8 (5) Exchanges. The procedure for an exchange in
9 regards to a sales tax holiday is as follows:
10 (A) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
11 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
12 later exchanges the item for a similar eligible item,
13 even if a different size, different color, or other
14 feature, no additional tax is due even if the exchange
15 is made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period.
16 (B) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
17 property during the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
18 after the Sales Tax Holiday Period has ended, the
19 customer returns the item and receives credit on the
20 purchase of a different item, the 6.25% general
21 merchandise sales tax rate is due on the sale of the
22 newly purchased item.
23 (C) If a customer purchases an item of eligible
24 property before the Sales Tax Holiday Period, but
25 during the Sales Tax Holiday Period the customer
26 returns the item and receives credit on the purchase

HB3201- 66 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 of a different item of eligible property, the reduced
2 rate of tax is due on the sale of the new item if the
3 new item is purchased during the Sales Tax Holiday
4 Period.
5 (6) (Blank).
6 (7) Order date and back orders. For the purpose of a
7 sales tax holiday, eligible property qualifies for the
8 reduced rate of tax if: (i) the item is both delivered to
9 and paid for by the customer during the Sales Tax Holiday
10 Period or (ii) the customer orders and pays for the item
11 and the seller accepts the order during the Sales Tax
12 Holiday Period for immediate shipment, even if delivery is
13 made after the Sales Tax Holiday Period. The seller
14 accepts an order when the seller has taken action to fill
15 the order for immediate shipment. Actions to fill an order
16 include placement of an "in date" stamp on an order or
17 assignment of an "order number" to an order within the
18 Sales Tax Holiday Period. An order is for immediate
19 shipment when the customer does not request delayed
20 shipment. An order is for immediate shipment
21 notwithstanding that the shipment may be delayed because
22 of a backlog of orders or because stock is currently
23 unavailable to, or on back order by, the seller.
24 (8) Returns. For a 60-day period immediately after the
25 Sales Tax Holiday Period, if a customer returns an item
26 that would qualify for the reduced rate of tax, credit for

HB3201- 67 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1 or refund of sales tax shall be given only at the reduced
2 rate unless the customer provides a receipt or invoice
3 that shows tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise
4 rate, or the seller has sufficient documentation to show
5 that tax was paid at the 6.25% general merchandise rate on
6 the specific item. This 60-day period is set solely for
7 the purpose of designating a time period during which the
8 customer must provide documentation that shows that the
9 appropriate sales tax rate was paid on returned
10 merchandise. The 60-day period is not intended to change a
11 seller's policy on the time period during which the seller
12 will accept returns.
13 (c) The Department may implement the provisions of this
14Section through the use of emergency rules, along with
15permanent rules filed concurrently with such emergency rules,
16in accordance with the provisions of Section 5-45 of the
17Illinois Administrative Procedure Act. For purposes of the
18Illinois Administrative Procedure Act, the adoption of rules
19to implement the provisions of this Section shall be deemed an
20emergency and necessary for the public interest, safety, and
21welfare.
22 (d) As used in this Section, "sales tax holiday period"
23means:
24 (1) from August 6, 2010 through August 15, 2010;
25 (2) from August 5, 2022 through August 14, 2022; and
26 (3) from August 5, 2023 through August 14, 2023.

6traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
7for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
8extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for
9the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
10deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
11price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
12such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
13purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
14evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
15if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
16sale; a sufficient identification of the property sold; such
17other information as is required in Section 5-402 of the
18Illinois Vehicle Code, and such other information as the
19Department may reasonably require.
20 The transaction reporting return in the case of watercraft
21or aircraft must show the name and address of the seller; the
22name and address of the purchaser; the amount of the selling
23price including the amount allowed by the retailer for
24traded-in property, if any; the amount allowed by the retailer
25for the traded-in tangible personal property, if any, to the
26extent to which Section 1 of this Act allows an exemption for

HB3201- 87 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the value of traded-in property; the balance payable after
2deducting such trade-in allowance from the total selling
3price; the amount of tax due from the retailer with respect to
4such transaction; the amount of tax collected from the
5purchaser by the retailer on such transaction (or satisfactory
6evidence that such tax is not due in that particular instance,
7if that is claimed to be the fact); the place and date of the
8sale, a sufficient identification of the property sold, and
9such other information as the Department may reasonably
10require.
11 Such transaction reporting return shall be filed not later
12than 20 days after the day of delivery of the item that is
13being sold, but may be filed by the retailer at any time sooner
14than that if he chooses to do so. The transaction reporting
15return and tax remittance or proof of exemption from the
16Illinois use tax may be transmitted to the Department by way of
17the State agency with which, or State officer with whom the
18tangible personal property must be titled or registered (if
19titling or registration is required) if the Department and
20such agency or State officer determine that this procedure
21will expedite the processing of applications for title or
22registration.
23 With each such transaction reporting return, the retailer
24shall remit the proper amount of tax due (or shall submit
25satisfactory evidence that the sale is not taxable if that is
26the case), to the Department or its agents, whereupon the

HB3201- 88 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1Department shall issue, in the purchaser's name, a use tax
2receipt (or a certificate of exemption if the Department is
3satisfied that the particular sale is tax exempt) which such
4purchaser may submit to the agency with which, or State
5officer with whom, he must title or register the tangible
6personal property that is involved (if titling or registration
7is required) in support of such purchaser's application for an
8Illinois certificate or other evidence of title or
9registration to such tangible personal property.
10 No retailer's failure or refusal to remit tax under this
11Act precludes a user, who has paid the proper tax to the
12retailer, from obtaining his certificate of title or other
13evidence of title or registration (if titling or registration
14is required) upon satisfying the Department that such user has
15paid the proper tax (if tax is due) to the retailer. The
16Department shall adopt appropriate rules to carry out the
17mandate of this paragraph.
18 If the user who would otherwise pay tax to the retailer
19wants the transaction reporting return filed and the payment
20of the tax or proof of exemption made to the Department before
21the retailer is willing to take these actions and such user has
22not paid the tax to the retailer, such user may certify to the
23fact of such delay by the retailer and may (upon the Department
24being satisfied of the truth of such certification) transmit
25the information required by the transaction reporting return
26and the remittance for tax or proof of exemption directly to

HB3201- 89 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the Department and obtain his tax receipt or exemption
2determination, in which event the transaction reporting return
3and tax remittance (if a tax payment was required) shall be
4credited by the Department to the proper retailer's account
5with the Department, but without the 2.1% or 1.75% discount
6provided for in this Section being allowed. When the user pays
7the tax directly to the Department, he shall pay the tax in the
8same amount and in the same form in which it would be remitted
9if the tax had been remitted to the Department by the retailer.
10 Refunds made by the seller during the preceding return
11period to purchasers, on account of tangible personal property
12returned to the seller, shall be allowed as a deduction under
13subdivision 5 of his monthly or quarterly return, as the case
14may be, in case the seller had theretofore included the
15receipts from the sale of such tangible personal property in a
16return filed by him and had paid the tax imposed by this Act
17with respect to such receipts.
18 Where the seller is a corporation, the return filed on
19behalf of such corporation shall be signed by the president,
20vice-president, secretary or treasurer or by the properly
21accredited agent of such corporation.
22 Where the seller is a limited liability company, the
23return filed on behalf of the limited liability company shall
24be signed by a manager, member, or properly accredited agent
25of the limited liability company.
26 Except as provided in this Section, the retailer filing

HB3201- 90 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1the return under this Section shall, at the time of filing such
2return, pay to the Department the amount of tax imposed by this
3Act less a discount of 2.1% prior to January 1, 1990 and 1.75%
4on and after January 1, 1990, or $5 per calendar year,
5whichever is greater, which is allowed to reimburse the
6retailer for the expenses incurred in keeping records,
7preparing and filing returns, remitting the tax and supplying
8data to the Department on request. On and after January 1,
92021, a certified service provider, as defined in the Leveling
10the Playing Field for Illinois Retail Act, filing the return
11under this Section on behalf of a remote retailer shall, at the
12time of such return, pay to the Department the amount of tax
13imposed by this Act less a discount of 1.75%. A remote retailer
14using a certified service provider to file a return on its
15behalf, as provided in the Leveling the Playing Field for
16Illinois Retail Act, is not eligible for the discount. When
17determining the discount allowed under this Section, retailers
18shall include the amount of tax that would have been due at the
191% rate but for the 0% rate imposed under Public Act 102-700
20this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly. When
21determining the discount allowed under this Section, retailers
22shall include the amount of tax that would have been due at the
236.25% rate but for the 1.25% rate imposed on sales tax holiday
24items during the sales tax holiday period set forth in Section
252-8 under this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly.
26The discount under this Section is not allowed for the 1.25%

HB3201- 91 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1portion of taxes paid on aviation fuel that is subject to the
2revenue use requirements of 49 U.S.C. 47107(b) and 49 U.S.C.
347133. Any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2d of this Act
4shall be included in the amount on which such 2.1% or 1.75%
5discount is computed. In the case of retailers who report and
6pay the tax on a transaction by transaction basis, as provided
7in this Section, such discount shall be taken with each such
8tax remittance instead of when such retailer files his
9periodic return. The discount allowed under this Section is
10allowed only for returns that are filed in the manner required
11by this Act. The Department may disallow the discount for
12retailers whose certificate of registration is revoked at the
13time the return is filed, but only if the Department's
14decision to revoke the certificate of registration has become
15final.
16 Before October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average monthly
17tax liability to the Department under this Act, the Use Tax
18Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service Use Tax
19Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to be
20remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
21$10,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
22quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
23month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
24during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
25payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
26last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.

HB3201- 92 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1On and after October 1, 2000, if the taxpayer's average
2monthly tax liability to the Department under this Act, the
3Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act, and the Service
4Use Tax Act, excluding any liability for prepaid sales tax to
5be remitted in accordance with Section 2d of this Act, was
6$20,000 or more during the preceding 4 complete calendar
7quarters, he shall file a return with the Department each
8month by the 20th day of the month next following the month
9during which such tax liability is incurred and shall make
10payment to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
11last day of the month during which such liability is incurred.
12If the month during which such tax liability is incurred began
13prior to January 1, 1985, each payment shall be in an amount
14equal to 1/4 of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month
15or an amount set by the Department not to exceed 1/4 of the
16average monthly liability of the taxpayer to the Department
17for the preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the
18month of highest liability and the month of lowest liability
19in such 4 quarter period). If the month during which such tax
20liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1985 and
21prior to January 1, 1987, each payment shall be in an amount
22equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
23month or 27.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same
24calendar month of the preceding year. If the month during
25which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
26January 1, 1987 and prior to January 1, 1988, each payment

HB3201- 93 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual
2liability for the month or 26.25% of the taxpayer's liability
3for the same calendar month of the preceding year. If the month
4during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after
5January 1, 1988, and prior to January 1, 1989, or begins on or
6after January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount equal
7to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
825% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of
9the preceding year. If the month during which such tax
10liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1989, and
11prior to January 1, 1996, each payment shall be in an amount
12equal to 22.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the
13month or 25% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar
14month of the preceding year or 100% of the taxpayer's actual
15liability for the quarter monthly reporting period. The amount
16of such quarter monthly payments shall be credited against the
17final tax liability of the taxpayer's return for that month.
18Before October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement of
19the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
20taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $10,000
21or more as determined in the manner provided above shall
22continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
23the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
24quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
25month of lowest liability) is less than $9,000, or until such
26taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as

HB3201- 94 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
2calendar quarter period is less than $10,000. However, if a
3taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
4the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
5to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
6reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $10,000
7threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
8Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
9On and after October 1, 2000, once applicable, the requirement
10of the making of quarter monthly payments to the Department by
11taxpayers having an average monthly tax liability of $20,000
12or more as determined in the manner provided above shall
13continue until such taxpayer's average monthly liability to
14the Department during the preceding 4 complete calendar
15quarters (excluding the month of highest liability and the
16month of lowest liability) is less than $19,000 or until such
17taxpayer's average monthly liability to the Department as
18computed for each calendar quarter of the 4 preceding complete
19calendar quarter period is less than $20,000. However, if a
20taxpayer can show the Department that a substantial change in
21the taxpayer's business has occurred which causes the taxpayer
22to anticipate that his average monthly tax liability for the
23reasonably foreseeable future will fall below the $20,000
24threshold stated above, then such taxpayer may petition the
25Department for a change in such taxpayer's reporting status.
26The Department shall change such taxpayer's reporting status

HB3201- 95 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1unless it finds that such change is seasonal in nature and not
2likely to be long term. Quarter monthly payment status shall
3be determined under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to
40% in Public Act 102-700 this amendatory Act of the 102nd
5General Assembly on food for human consumption that is to be
6consumed off the premises where it is sold (other than
7alcoholic beverages, food consisting of or infused with adult
8use cannabis, soft drinks, and food that has been prepared for
9immediate consumption) had not occurred. For quarter monthly
10payments due under this paragraph on or after July 1, 2023 and
11through June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's liability for
12the same calendar month of the preceding year" shall be
13determined as if the rate reduction to 0% in Public Act 102-700
14this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly had not
15occurred. Quarter monthly payment status shall be determined
16under this paragraph as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in
17Public Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the 103rd
18General Assembly this amendatory Act of the 102nd General
19Assembly on sales tax holiday items had not occurred. For
20quarter monthly payments due on or after July 1, 2023 and
21through June 30, 2025 June 30, 2024, "25% of the taxpayer's
22liability for the same calendar month of the preceding year"
23shall be determined as if the rate reduction to 1.25% in Public
24Act 102-700 and this amendatory Act of the 103rd General
25Assembly this amendatory Act of the 102nd General Assembly on
26sales tax holiday items had not occurred. If any such quarter

HB3201- 96 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1monthly payment is not paid at the time or in the amount
2required by this Section, then the taxpayer shall be liable
3for penalties and interest on the difference between the
4minimum amount due as a payment and the amount of such quarter
5monthly payment actually and timely paid, except insofar as
6the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month to
7the Department in excess of the minimum payments previously
8due as provided in this Section. The Department shall make
9reasonable rules and regulations to govern the quarter monthly
10payment amount and quarter monthly payment dates for taxpayers
11who file on other than a calendar monthly basis.
12 The provisions of this paragraph apply before October 1,
132001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is required to make
14quarter monthly payments as specified above, any taxpayer who
15is required by Section 2d of this Act to collect and remit
16prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid taxes which average in
17excess of $25,000 per month during the preceding 2 complete
18calendar quarters, shall file a return with the Department as
19required by Section 2f and shall make payments to the
20Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and last day of the
21month during which such liability is incurred. If the month
22during which such tax liability is incurred began prior to
23September 1, 1985 (the effective date of Public Act 84-221),
24each payment shall be in an amount not less than 22.5% of the
25taxpayer's actual liability under Section 2d. If the month
26during which such tax liability is incurred begins on or after

HB3201- 97 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1January 1, 1986, each payment shall be in an amount equal to
222.5% of the taxpayer's actual liability for the month or
327.5% of the taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month
4of the preceding calendar year. If the month during which such
5tax liability is incurred begins on or after January 1, 1987,
6each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
7taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 26.25% of the
8taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
9preceding year. The amount of such quarter monthly payments
10shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
11taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or
12Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
13requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
14Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until
15such taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during
16the preceding 2 complete calendar quarters is $25,000 or less.
17If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid at the time or
18in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be liable for
19penalties and interest on such difference, except insofar as
20the taxpayer has previously made payments for that month in
21excess of the minimum payments previously due.
22 The provisions of this paragraph apply on and after
23October 1, 2001. Without regard to whether a taxpayer is
24required to make quarter monthly payments as specified above,
25any taxpayer who is required by Section 2d of this Act to
26collect and remit prepaid taxes and has collected prepaid

HB3201- 98 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1taxes that average in excess of $20,000 per month during the
2preceding 4 complete calendar quarters shall file a return
3with the Department as required by Section 2f and shall make
4payments to the Department on or before the 7th, 15th, 22nd and
5last day of the month during which the liability is incurred.
6Each payment shall be in an amount equal to 22.5% of the
7taxpayer's actual liability for the month or 25% of the
8taxpayer's liability for the same calendar month of the
9preceding year. The amount of the quarter monthly payments
10shall be credited against the final tax liability of the
11taxpayer's return for that month filed under this Section or
12Section 2f, as the case may be. Once applicable, the
13requirement of the making of quarter monthly payments to the
14Department pursuant to this paragraph shall continue until the
15taxpayer's average monthly prepaid tax collections during the
16preceding 4 complete calendar quarters (excluding the month of
17highest liability and the month of lowest liability) is less
18than $19,000 or until such taxpayer's average monthly
19liability to the Department as computed for each calendar
20quarter of the 4 preceding complete calendar quarters is less
21than $20,000. If any such quarter monthly payment is not paid
22at the time or in the amount required, the taxpayer shall be
23liable for penalties and interest on such difference, except
24insofar as the taxpayer has previously made payments for that
25month in excess of the minimum payments previously due.
26 If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the

HB3201- 99 -LRB103 29494 HLH 55889 b
1taxpayer's liabilities under this Act, the Use Tax Act, the
2Service Occupation Tax Act and the Service Use Tax Act, as
3shown on an original monthly return, the Department shall, if
4requested by the taxpayer, issue to the taxpayer a credit
5memorandum no later than 30 days after the date of payment. The
6credit evidenced by such credit memorandum may be assigned by
7the taxpayer to a similar taxpayer under this Act, the Use Tax
8Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service Use Tax Act,
9in accordance with reasonable rules and regulations to be
10prescribed by the Department. If no such request is made, the
11taxpayer may credit such excess payment against tax liability
12subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act,
13the Use Tax Act, the Service Occupation Tax Act or the Service
14Use Tax Act, in accordance with reasonable rules and
15regulations prescribed by the Department. If the Department
16subsequently determined that all or any part of the credit
17taken was not actually due to the taxpayer, the taxpayer's
182.1% and 1.75% vendor's discount shall be reduced by 2.1% or
191.75% of the difference between the credit taken and that
20actually due, and that taxpayer shall be liable for penalties
21and interest on such difference.
22 If a retailer of motor fuel is entitled to a credit under
23Section 2d of this Act which exceeds the taxpayer's liability
24to the Department under this Act for the month for which the
25taxpayer is filing a return, the Department shall issue the
26taxpayer a credit memorandum for the excess.
