Public Act 101-0585
SB1515 Enrolled LRB101 08648 HLH 53732 b
AN ACT concerning revenue.
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
Section 5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by
changing Sections 304, 601, and 701 as follows:
(35 ILCS 5/304) (from Ch. 120, par. 3-304)
Sec. 304. Business income of persons other than residents.
(a) In general. The business income of a person other than
a resident shall be allocated to this State if such person's
business income is derived solely from this State. If a person
other than a resident derives business income from this State
and one or more other states, then, for tax years ending on or
before December 30, 1998, and except as otherwise provided by
this Section, such person's business income shall be
apportioned to this State by multiplying the income by a
fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the property
factor (if any), the payroll factor (if any) and 200% of the
sales factor (if any), and the denominator of which is 4
reduced by the number of factors other than the sales factor
which have a denominator of zero and by an additional 2 if the
sales factor has a denominator of zero. For tax years ending on
or after December 31, 1998, and except as otherwise provided by
this Section, persons other than residents who derive business

income from this State and one or more other states shall
compute their apportionment factor by weighting their
property, payroll, and sales factors as provided in subsection
(h) of this Section.
(1) Property factor.
(A) The property factor is a fraction, the numerator of
which is the average value of the person's real and
tangible personal property owned or rented and used in the
trade or business in this State during the taxable year and
the denominator of which is the average value of all the
person's real and tangible personal property owned or
rented and used in the trade or business during the taxable
year.
(B) Property owned by the person is valued at its
original cost. Property rented by the person is valued at 8
times the net annual rental rate. Net annual rental rate is
the annual rental rate paid by the person less any annual
rental rate received by the person from sub-rentals.
(C) The average value of property shall be determined
by averaging the values at the beginning and ending of the
taxable year but the Director may require the averaging of
monthly values during the taxable year if reasonably
required to reflect properly the average value of the
person's property.
(2) Payroll factor.
(A) The payroll factor is a fraction, the numerator of

which is the total amount paid in this State during the
taxable year by the person for compensation, and the
denominator of which is the total compensation paid
everywhere during the taxable year.
(B) Compensation is paid in this State if:
(i) The individual's service is performed entirely
within this State;
(ii) The individual's service is performed both
within and without this State, but the service
performed without this State is incidental to the
individual's service performed within this State; or
(iii) For tax years ending prior to December 31,
2020, some Some of the service is performed within this
State and either the base of operations, or if there is
no base of operations, the place from which the service
is directed or controlled is within this State, or the
base of operations or the place from which the service
is directed or controlled is not in any state in which
some part of the service is performed, but the
individual's residence is in this State. For tax years
ending on or after December 31, 2020, compensation is
paid in this State if some of the individual's service
is performed within this State, the individual's
service performed within this State is nonincidental
to the individual's service performed without this
State, and the individual's service is performed

within this State for more than 30 working days during
the tax year. The amount of compensation paid in this
State shall include the portion of the individual's
total compensation for services performed on behalf of
his or her employer during the tax year which the
number of working days spent within this State during
the tax year bears to the total number of working days
spent both within and without this State during the tax
year. For purposes of this paragraph:
(a) The term "working day" means all days
during the tax year in which the individual
performs duties on behalf of his or her employer.
All days in which the individual performs no duties
on behalf of his or her employer (e.g., weekends,
vacation days, sick days, and holidays) are not
working days.
(b) A working day is spent within this State
if:
(1) the individual performs service on
behalf of the employer and a greater amount of
time on that day is spent by the individual
performing duties on behalf of the employer
within this State, without regard to time spent
traveling, than is spent performing duties on
behalf of the employer without this State; or
(2) the only service the individual

performs on behalf of the employer on that day
is traveling to a destination within this
State, and the individual arrives on that day.
(c) Working days spent within this State do not
include any day in which the employee is performing
services in this State during a disaster period
solely in response to a request made to his or her
employer by the government of this State, by any
political subdivision of this State, or by a person
conducting business in this State to perform
disaster or emergency-related services in this
State. For purposes of this item (c):
"Declared State disaster or emergency"

which a Governor's proclamation of a state of
emergency has been issued or (ii) for which a
Presidential declaration of a federal major
disaster or emergency has been issued.

lines, pipes, structures, and equipment.
(iv) Compensation paid to nonresident professional
athletes.
(a) General. The Illinois source income of a
nonresident individual who is a member of a
professional athletic team includes the portion of the
individual's total compensation for services performed
as a member of a professional athletic team during the
taxable year which the number of duty days spent within
this State performing services for the team in any

manner during the taxable year bears to the total
number of duty days spent both within and without this
State during the taxable year.
(b) Travel days. Travel days that do not involve
either a game, practice, team meeting, or other similar
team event are not considered duty days spent in this
State. However, such travel days are considered in the
total duty days spent both within and without this
State.
(c) Definitions. For purposes of this subpart
(iv):
(1) The term "professional athletic team"
includes, but is not limited to, any professional
baseball, basketball, football, soccer, or hockey

official pre-season training period through the
last game in which the team competes or is
scheduled to compete, occurs during more than one
tax year.
(A) Duty days shall also include days on
which a member of a professional athletic team
performs service for a team on a date that does
not fall within the foregoing period (e.g.,
participation in instructional leagues, the
"All Star Game", or promotional "caravans").
Performing a service for a professional
athletic team includes conducting training and
rehabilitation activities, when such
activities are conducted at team facilities.

meetings, promotional caravans, preseason
training camps, and days served with the team

that person joins the team. Conversely, duty
days for any person who leaves a team during

calculation shall be made for the period the
person was with each team.

professional athletic team is not compensated
and is not performing services for the team in
any manner, including days when such member of
a professional athletic team has been
suspended without pay and prohibited from

be treated as duty days.
(E) Days for which a member of a
professional athletic team is on the disabled
list and does not conduct rehabilitation

performed as a member of a professional athletic
team" means the total compensation received during
the taxable year for services performed:
(A) from the beginning of the official
pre-season training period through the last
game in which the team competes or is scheduled
to compete during that taxable year; and

does not fall within the foregoing period
(e.g., participation in instructional leagues,
the "All Star Game", or promotional caravans).
This compensation shall include, but is not
limited to, salaries, wages, bonuses as described
in this subpart, and any other type of compensation

selection to all-star league or other honorary
positions; and bonuses paid for signing a
contract, unless the payment of the signing bonus
is not conditional upon the signee playing any
games for the team or performing any subsequent
services for the team or even making the team, the
signing bonus is payable separately from the
salary and any other compensation, and the signing
bonus is nonrefundable.
(3) Sales factor.

which is the total sales of the person in this State during
the taxable year, and the denominator of which is the total
sales of the person everywhere during the taxable year.

with the seller for the printing of newspapers,
periodicals or books shall not be deemed to be an
office, store, warehouse, factory or other place of
storage for purposes of this Section. Sales of tangible
personal property are not in this State if the seller
and purchaser would be members of the same unitary
business group but for the fact that either the seller
or purchaser is a person with 80% or more of total
business activity outside of the United States and the
property is purchased for resale.
(B-1) Patents, copyrights, trademarks, and similar
items of intangible personal property.

utilized in any one state shall be a fraction equal
to the gross receipts of the licensee or purchaser
from sales or leases of items produced,
fabricated, manufactured, or processed within that
state using the patent and of patented items
produced within that state, divided by the total of
such gross receipts for all states in which the
patent is utilized.
(II) A copyright is utilized in a state to the
extent that printing or other publication
originates in the state. If a copyright is utilized
in more than one state, the extent to which it is

materials printed or published in that state
divided by the total of such gross receipts for all
states in which the copyright is utilized.

personal property governed by this paragraph (B-1)
are utilized in the state in which the commercial
domicile of the licensee or purchaser is located.

determined from the taxpayer's books and records or
from the books and records of any person related to the
taxpayer within the meaning of Section 267(b) of the
Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. 267, the gross
receipts attributable to that item shall be excluded
from both the numerator and the denominator of the
sales factor.
(B-2) Gross receipts from the license, sale, or other
disposition of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and
similar items of intangible personal property, other than
gross receipts governed by paragraph (B-7) of this item
(3), may be included in the numerator or denominator of the
sales factor only if gross receipts from licenses, sales,
or other disposition of such items comprise more than 50%
of the taxpayer's total gross receipts included in gross
income during the tax year and during each of the 2
immediately preceding tax years; provided that, when a
taxpayer is a member of a unitary business group, such
determination shall be made on the basis of the gross
receipts of the entire unitary business group.

audience or subscribers located in this State of a
station, a network, or a cable system bears to the
total audience or total subscribers for that station,

services" means the transmission or provision of film
or radio programming, whether through the public
airwaves, by cable, by direct or indirect satellite
transmission, or by any other means of communication,

sporting events, plays, stories, or other literary,

other format or medium. Each episode in a series of
radio programming produced for radio broadcast shall

commercial domicile of the advertiser is in this
State.
(ii) In the case where film or radio
programming is broadcast by a station, a network,
or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration
received from the recipient of the broadcast, the
portion of the service that is received in this

State is measured by the portion of the recipients
of the broadcast located in this State.
Accordingly, the fee or other remuneration for
such service that is included in the Illinois
numerator of the sales factor is the total of those
fees or other remuneration received from
recipients in Illinois. For purposes of this
paragraph, a taxpayer may determine the location
of the recipients of its broadcast using the
address of the recipient shown in its contracts
with the recipient or using the billing address of
the recipient in the taxpayer's records.
(iii) In the case where film or radio
programming is broadcast by a station, a network,
or a cable system for a fee or other remuneration

State is measured by the portion of recipients of
the broadcast located in this State. Accordingly,
the amount of revenue related to such an
arrangement that is included in the Illinois
numerator of the sales factor is the total fee or
other total remuneration from the person providing
the programming related to that broadcast
multiplied by the Illinois audience factor for

that broadcast.
(iv) In the case where film or radio
programming is provided by a taxpayer that is a
network or station to a customer for broadcast in
exchange for a fee or other remuneration from that
customer the broadcasting service is received at

which the services were ordered in the regular
course of the customer's trade or business.
Accordingly, in such a case the revenue derived by
the taxpayer that is included in the taxpayer's
Illinois numerator of the sales factor is the
revenue from such customers who receive the
broadcasting service in Illinois.
(v) In the case where film or radio programming
is provided by a taxpayer that is not a network or
station to another person for broadcasting in
exchange for a fee or other remuneration from that
person, the broadcasting service is received at
the location of the office of the customer from
which the services were ordered in the regular
course of the customer's trade or business.
Accordingly, in such a case the revenue derived by
the taxpayer that is included in the taxpayer's
Illinois numerator of the sales factor is the
revenue from such customers who receive the

broadcasting service in Illinois.
(B-8) Gross receipts from winnings under the Illinois
Lottery Law from the assignment of a prize under Section
13.1 of the Illinois Lottery Law are received in this
State. This paragraph (B-8) applies only to taxable years
ending on or after December 31, 2013.
(C) For taxable years ending before December 31, 2008,
sales, other than sales governed by paragraphs (B), (B-1),
(B-2), and (B-8) are in this State if:
(i) The income-producing activity is performed in
this State; or
(ii) The income-producing activity is performed
both within and without this State and a greater
proportion of the income-producing activity is
performed within this State than without this State,
based on performance costs.
(C-5) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2008, sales, other than sales governed by paragraphs (B),
(B-1), (B-2), (B-5), and (B-7), are in this State if any of
the following criteria are met:
(i) Sales from the sale or lease of real property
are in this State if the property is located in this
State.
(ii) Sales from the lease or rental of tangible
personal property are in this State if the property is
located in this State during the rental period. Sales

from the lease or rental of tangible personal property
that is characteristically moving property, including,
but not limited to, motor vehicles, rolling stock,
aircraft, vessels, or mobile equipment are in this
State to the extent that the property is used in this
State.
(iii) In the case of interest, net gains (but not
less than zero) and other items of income from
intangible personal property, the sale is in this State
if:
(a) in the case of a taxpayer who is a dealer
in the item of intangible personal property within
the meaning of Section 475 of the Internal Revenue
Code, the income or gain is received from a
customer in this State. For purposes of this
subparagraph, a customer is in this State if the
customer is an individual, trust or estate who is a
resident of this State and, for all other
customers, if the customer's commercial domicile
is in this State. Unless the dealer has actual
knowledge of the residence or commercial domicile
of a customer during a taxable year, the customer
shall be deemed to be a customer in this State if
the billing address of the customer, as shown in
the records of the dealer, is in this State; or
(b) in all other cases, if the

income-producing activity of the taxpayer is
performed in this State or, if the
income-producing activity of the taxpayer is
performed both within and without this State, if a
greater proportion of the income-producing
activity of the taxpayer is performed within this
State than in any other state, based on performance
costs.
(iv) Sales of services are in this State if the
services are received in this State. For the purposes
of this section, gross receipts from the performance of
services provided to a corporation, partnership, or
trust may only be attributed to a state where that
corporation, partnership, or trust has a fixed place of
business. If the state where the services are received
is not readily determinable or is a state where the
corporation, partnership, or trust receiving the
service does not have a fixed place of business, the
services shall be deemed to be received at the location
of the office of the customer from which the services
were ordered in the regular course of the customer's
trade or business. If the ordering office cannot be
determined, the services shall be deemed to be received
at the office of the customer to which the services are
billed. If the taxpayer is not taxable in the state in
which the services are received, the sale must be

excluded from both the numerator and the denominator of
the sales factor. The Department shall adopt rules
prescribing where specific types of service are
received, including, but not limited to, publishing,
and utility service.
(D) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
1995, the following items of income shall not be included
in the numerator or denominator of the sales factor:
dividends; amounts included under Section 78 of the
Internal Revenue Code; and Subpart F income as defined in
Section 952 of the Internal Revenue Code. No inference
shall be drawn from the enactment of this paragraph (D) in
construing this Section for taxable years ending before
December 31, 1995.
(E) Paragraphs (B-1) and (B-2) shall apply to tax years
ending on or after December 31, 1999, provided that a
taxpayer may elect to apply the provisions of these
paragraphs to prior tax years. Such election shall be made
in the form and manner prescribed by the Department, shall
be irrevocable, and shall apply to all tax years; provided
that, if a taxpayer's Illinois income tax liability for any
tax year, as assessed under Section 903 prior to January 1,
1999, was computed in a manner contrary to the provisions
of paragraphs (B-1) or (B-2), no refund shall be payable to
the taxpayer for that tax year to the extent such refund is
the result of applying the provisions of paragraph (B-1) or

(B-2) retroactively. In the case of a unitary business
group, such election shall apply to all members of such
group for every tax year such group is in existence, but
shall not apply to any taxpayer for any period during which
that taxpayer is not a member of such group.
(b) Insurance companies.
(1) In general. Except as otherwise provided by
paragraph (2), business income of an insurance company for
a taxable year shall be apportioned to this State by
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon
property or risk in this State, and the denominator of
which is the direct premiums written for insurance upon
property or risk everywhere. For purposes of this
subsection, the term "direct premiums written" means the
total amount of direct premiums written, assessments and
annuity considerations as reported for the taxable year on
the annual statement filed by the company with the Illinois
Director of Insurance in the form approved by the National
Convention of Insurance Commissioners or such other form as
may be prescribed in lieu thereof.
(2) Reinsurance. If the principal source of premiums
written by an insurance company consists of premiums for
reinsurance accepted by it, the business income of such
company shall be apportioned to this State by multiplying
such income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the

sum of (i) direct premiums written for insurance upon
property or risk in this State, plus (ii) premiums written
for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk in
this State, and the denominator of which is the sum of
(iii) direct premiums written for insurance upon property
or risk everywhere, plus (iv) premiums written for
reinsurance accepted in respect of property or risk
everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, premiums
written for reinsurance accepted in respect of property or
risk in this State, whether or not otherwise determinable,
may, at the election of the company, be determined on the
basis of the proportion which premiums written for
reinsurance accepted from companies commercially domiciled
in Illinois bears to premiums written for reinsurance
accepted from all sources, or, alternatively, in the
proportion which the sum of the direct premiums written for
insurance upon property or risk in this State by each
ceding company from which reinsurance is accepted bears to
the sum of the total direct premiums written by each such
ceding company for the taxable year. The election made by a
company under this paragraph for its first taxable year
ending on or after December 31, 2011, shall be binding for
that company for that taxable year and for all subsequent
taxable years, and may be altered only with the written
permission of the Department, which shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

(c) Financial organizations.
(1) In general. For taxable years ending before
December 31, 2008, business income of a financial
organization shall be apportioned to this State by
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
which is its business income from sources within this
State, and the denominator of which is its business income
from all sources. For the purposes of this subsection, the
business income of a financial organization from sources
within this State is the sum of the amounts referred to in
subparagraphs (A) through (E) following, but excluding the
adjusted income of an international banking facility as
determined in paragraph (2):
(A) Fees, commissions or other compensation for
financial services rendered within this State;
(B) Gross profits from trading in stocks, bonds or
other securities managed within this State;
(C) Dividends, and interest from Illinois
customers, which are received within this State;
(D) Interest charged to customers at places of
business maintained within this State for carrying
debit balances of margin accounts, without deduction
of any costs incurred in carrying such accounts; and
(E) Any other gross income resulting from the
operation as a financial organization within this
State. In computing the amounts referred to in

paragraphs (A) through (E) of this subsection, any
amount received by a member of an affiliated group
(determined under Section 1504(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code but without reference to whether any such
corporation is an "includible corporation" under
Section 1504(b) of the Internal Revenue Code) from
another member of such group shall be included only to
the extent such amount exceeds expenses of the
recipient directly related thereto.
(2) International Banking Facility. For taxable years
ending before December 31, 2008:
(A) Adjusted Income. The adjusted income of an
international banking facility is its income reduced
by the amount of the floor amount.
(B) Floor Amount. The floor amount shall be the
amount, if any, determined by multiplying the income of
the international banking facility by a fraction, not
greater than one, which is determined as follows:
(i) The numerator shall be:
The average aggregate, determined on a
quarterly basis, of the financial organization's
loans to banks in foreign countries, to foreign
domiciled borrowers (except where secured
primarily by real estate) and to foreign
governments and other foreign official
institutions, as reported for its branches,

agencies and offices within the state on its
"Consolidated Report of Condition", Schedule A,
Lines 2.c., 5.b., and 7.a., which was filed with
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and
other regulatory authorities, for the year 1980,
minus
The average aggregate, determined on a
quarterly basis, of such loans (other than loans of
an international banking facility), as reported by
the financial institution for its branches,
agencies and offices within the state, on the
corresponding Schedule and lines of the
Consolidated Report of Condition for the current
taxable year, provided, however, that in no case
shall the amount determined in this clause (the
subtrahend) exceed the amount determined in the
preceding clause (the minuend); and
(ii) the denominator shall be the average
aggregate, determined on a quarterly basis, of the
international banking facility's loans to banks in
foreign countries, to foreign domiciled borrowers
(except where secured primarily by real estate)
and to foreign governments and other foreign
official institutions, which were recorded in its
financial accounts for the current taxable year.
(C) Change to Consolidated Report of Condition and

in Qualification. In the event the Consolidated Report
of Condition which is filed with the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation and other regulatory authorities
is altered so that the information required for
determining the floor amount is not found on Schedule
A, lines 2.c., 5.b. and 7.a., the financial institution
shall notify the Department and the Department may, by
regulations or otherwise, prescribe or authorize the
use of an alternative source for such information. The
financial institution shall also notify the Department
should its international banking facility fail to
qualify as such, in whole or in part, or should there
be any amendment or change to the Consolidated Report
of Condition, as originally filed, to the extent such
amendment or change alters the information used in
determining the floor amount.
(3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2008, the business income of a financial organization shall
be apportioned to this State by multiplying such income by
a fraction, the numerator of which is its gross receipts
from sources in this State or otherwise attributable to
this State's marketplace and the denominator of which is
its gross receipts everywhere during the taxable year.
"Gross receipts" for purposes of this subparagraph (3)
means gross income, including net taxable gain on
disposition of assets, including securities and money

market instruments, when derived from transactions and
activities in the regular course of the financial
organization's trade or business. The following examples
are illustrative:
(i) Receipts from the lease or rental of real or
tangible personal property are in this State if the
property is located in this State during the rental
period. Receipts from the lease or rental of tangible
personal property that is characteristically moving
property, including, but not limited to, motor
vehicles, rolling stock, aircraft, vessels, or mobile
equipment are from sources in this State to the extent
that the property is used in this State.
(ii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on
disposition, and other receipts from assets in the
nature of loans that are secured primarily by real
estate or tangible personal property are from sources
in this State if the security is located in this State.
(iii) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on
disposition, and other receipts from consumer loans
that are not secured by real or tangible personal
property are from sources in this State if the debtor
is a resident of this State.
(iv) Interest income, commissions, fees, gains on
disposition, and other receipts from commercial loans
and installment obligations that are not secured by

real or tangible personal property are from sources in
this State if the proceeds of the loan are to be
applied in this State. If it cannot be determined where
the funds are to be applied, the income and receipts
are from sources in this State if the office of the
borrower from which the loan was negotiated in the
regular course of business is located in this State. If
the location of this office cannot be determined, the
income and receipts shall be excluded from the
numerator and denominator of the sales factor.
(v) Interest income, fees, gains on disposition,
service charges, merchant discount income, and other
receipts from credit card receivables are from sources
in this State if the card charges are regularly billed
to a customer in this State.
(vi) Receipts from the performance of services,
including, but not limited to, fiduciary, advisory,
and brokerage services, are in this State if the
services are received in this State within the meaning
of subparagraph (a)(3)(C-5)(iv) of this Section.
(vii) Receipts from the issuance of travelers
checks and money orders are from sources in this State
if the checks and money orders are issued from a
location within this State.
(viii) Receipts from investment assets and
activities and trading assets and activities are

included in the receipts factor as follows:
(1) Interest, dividends, net gains (but not
less than zero) and other income from investment
assets and activities from trading assets and
activities shall be included in the receipts
factor. Investment assets and activities and
trading assets and activities include but are not
limited to: investment securities; trading account
assets; federal funds; securities purchased and
sold under agreements to resell or repurchase;
options; futures contracts; forward contracts;
notional principal contracts such as swaps;
equities; and foreign currency transactions. With
respect to the investment and trading assets and
activities described in subparagraphs (A) and (B)
of this paragraph, the receipts factor shall
include the amounts described in such
subparagraphs.
(A) The receipts factor shall include the
amount by which interest from federal funds
sold and securities purchased under resale
agreements exceeds interest expense on federal
funds purchased and securities sold under
repurchase agreements.
(B) The receipts factor shall include the
amount by which interest, dividends, gains and

other income from trading assets and
activities, including but not limited to
assets and activities in the matched book, in
the arbitrage book, and foreign currency
transactions, exceed amounts paid in lieu of
interest, amounts paid in lieu of dividends,
and losses from such assets and activities.
(2) The numerator of the receipts factor
includes interest, dividends, net gains (but not
less than zero), and other income from investment
assets and activities and from trading assets and
activities described in paragraph (1) of this
subsection that are attributable to this State.
(A) The amount of interest, dividends, net
gains (but not less than zero), and other
income from investment assets and activities
in the investment account to be attributed to
this State and included in the numerator is
determined by multiplying all such income from
such assets and activities by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the gross income from
such assets and activities which are properly
assigned to a fixed place of business of the
taxpayer within this State and the denominator
of which is the gross income from all such
assets and activities.

(B) The amount of interest from federal
funds sold and purchased and from securities
purchased under resale agreements and
securities sold under repurchase agreements
attributable to this State and included in the
numerator is determined by multiplying the
amount described in subparagraph (A) of
paragraph (1) of this subsection from such
funds and such securities by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the gross income from
such funds and such securities which are
properly assigned to a fixed place of business
of the taxpayer within this State and the
denominator of which is the gross income from
all such funds and such securities.
(C) The amount of interest, dividends,
gains, and other income from trading assets and
activities, including but not limited to
assets and activities in the matched book, in
the arbitrage book and foreign currency
transactions (but excluding amounts described
in subparagraphs (A) or (B) of this paragraph),
attributable to this State and included in the
numerator is determined by multiplying the
amount described in subparagraph (B) of
paragraph (1) of this subsection by a fraction,

the numerator of which is the gross income from
such trading assets and activities which are
properly assigned to a fixed place of business
of the taxpayer within this State and the
denominator of which is the gross income from
all such assets and activities.
(D) Properly assigned, for purposes of
this paragraph (2) of this subsection, means
the investment or trading asset or activity is
assigned to the fixed place of business with
which it has a preponderance of substantive
contacts. An investment or trading asset or
activity assigned by the taxpayer to a fixed
place of business without the State shall be
presumed to have been properly assigned if:
(i) the taxpayer has assigned, in the
regular course of its business, such asset
or activity on its records to a fixed place
of business consistent with federal or
state regulatory requirements;
(ii) such assignment on its records is
based upon substantive contacts of the
asset or activity to such fixed place of
business; and
(iii) the taxpayer uses such records
reflecting assignment of such assets or

activities for the filing of all state and
local tax returns for which an assignment
of such assets or activities to a fixed
place of business is required.
(E) The presumption of proper assignment
of an investment or trading asset or activity
provided in subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2)
of this subsection may be rebutted upon a
showing by the Department, supported by a
preponderance of the evidence, that the
preponderance of substantive contacts
regarding such asset or activity did not occur
at the fixed place of business to which it was
assigned on the taxpayer's records. If the
fixed place of business that has a
preponderance of substantive contacts cannot
be determined for an investment or trading
asset or activity to which the presumption in
subparagraph (D) of paragraph (2) of this
subsection does not apply or with respect to
which that presumption has been rebutted, that
asset or activity is properly assigned to the
state in which the taxpayer's commercial
domicile is located. For purposes of this
subparagraph (E), it shall be presumed,
subject to rebuttal, that taxpayer's

commercial domicile is in the state of the
United States or the District of Columbia to
which the greatest number of employees are
regularly connected with the management of the
investment or trading income or out of which
they are working, irrespective of where the
services of such employees are performed, as of
the last day of the taxable year.
(4) (Blank).
(5) (Blank).
(c-1) Federally regulated exchanges. For taxable years
ending on or after December 31, 2012, business income of a
federally regulated exchange shall, at the option of the
federally regulated exchange, be apportioned to this State by
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of which
is its business income from sources within this State, and the
denominator of which is its business income from all sources.
For purposes of this subsection, the business income within
this State of a federally regulated exchange is the sum of the
following:
(1) Receipts attributable to transactions executed on
a physical trading floor if that physical trading floor is
located in this State.
(2) Receipts attributable to all other matching,
execution, or clearing transactions, including without
limitation receipts from the provision of matching,

execution, or clearing services to another entity,
multiplied by (i) for taxable years ending on or after
December 31, 2012 but before December 31, 2013, 63.77%; and
(ii) for taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2013, 27.54%.
(3) All other receipts not governed by subparagraphs
(1) or (2) of this subsection (c-1), to the extent the
receipts would be characterized as "sales in this State"
under item (3) of subsection (a) of this Section.
"Federally regulated exchange" means (i) a "registered
entity" within the meaning of 7 U.S.C. Section 1a(40)(A), (B),
or (C), (ii) an "exchange" or "clearing agency" within the
meaning of 15 U.S.C. Section 78c (a)(1) or (23), (iii) any such
entities regulated under any successor regulatory structure to
the foregoing, and (iv) all taxpayers who are members of the
same unitary business group as a federally regulated exchange,
determined without regard to the prohibition in Section
1501(a)(27) of this Act against including in a unitary business
group taxpayers who are ordinarily required to apportion
business income under different subsections of this Section;
provided that this subparagraph (iv) shall apply only if 50% or
more of the business receipts of the unitary business group
determined by application of this subparagraph (iv) for the
taxable year are attributable to the matching, execution, or
clearing of transactions conducted by an entity described in
subparagraph (i), (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph.

In no event shall the Illinois apportionment percentage
computed in accordance with this subsection (c-1) for any
taxpayer for any tax year be less than the Illinois
apportionment percentage computed under this subsection (c-1)
for that taxpayer for the first full tax year ending on or
after December 31, 2013 for which this subsection (c-1) applied
to the taxpayer.
(d) Transportation services. For taxable years ending
before December 31, 2008, business income derived from
furnishing transportation services shall be apportioned to
this State in accordance with paragraphs (1) and (2):
(1) Such business income (other than that derived from
transportation by pipeline) shall be apportioned to this
State by multiplying such income by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the revenue miles of the person in
this State, and the denominator of which is the revenue
miles of the person everywhere. For purposes of this
paragraph, a revenue mile is the transportation of 1
passenger or 1 net ton of freight the distance of 1 mile
for a consideration. Where a person is engaged in the
transportation of both passengers and freight, the
fraction above referred to shall be determined by means of
an average of the passenger revenue mile fraction and the
freight revenue mile fraction, weighted to reflect the
person's
(A) relative railway operating income from total

passenger and total freight service, as reported to the
Interstate Commerce Commission, in the case of
transportation by railroad, and
(B) relative gross receipts from passenger and
freight transportation, in case of transportation
other than by railroad.
(2) Such business income derived from transportation
by pipeline shall be apportioned to this State by
multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and
the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the person
everywhere. For the purposes of this paragraph, a revenue
mile is the transportation by pipeline of 1 barrel of oil,
1,000 cubic feet of gas, or of any specified quantity of
any other substance, the distance of 1 mile for a
consideration.
(3) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2008, business income derived from providing
transportation services other than airline services shall
be apportioned to this State by using a fraction, (a) the
numerator of which shall be (i) all receipts from any
movement or shipment of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or
any other substance (other than by airline) that both
originates and terminates in this State, plus (ii) that
portion of the person's gross receipts from movements or
shipments of people, goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other

substance (other than by airline) that originates in one
state or jurisdiction and terminates in another state or
jurisdiction, that is determined by the ratio that the
miles traveled in this State bears to total miles
everywhere and (b) the denominator of which shall be all
revenue derived from the movement or shipment of people,
goods, mail, oil, gas, or any other substance (other than
by airline). Where a taxpayer is engaged in the
transportation of both passengers and freight, the
fraction above referred to shall first be determined
separately for passenger miles and freight miles. Then an
average of the passenger miles fraction and the freight
miles fraction shall be weighted to reflect the taxpayer's:
(A) relative railway operating income from total
passenger and total freight service, as reported to the
Surface Transportation Board, in the case of
transportation by railroad; and
(B) relative gross receipts from passenger and
freight transportation, in case of transportation
other than by railroad.
(4) For taxable years ending on or after December 31,
2008, business income derived from furnishing airline
transportation services shall be apportioned to this State
by multiplying such income by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the revenue miles of the person in this State, and
the denominator of which is the revenue miles of the person

everywhere. For purposes of this paragraph, a revenue mile
is the transportation of one passenger or one net ton of
freight the distance of one mile for a consideration. If a
person is engaged in the transportation of both passengers
and freight, the fraction above referred to shall be
determined by means of an average of the passenger revenue
mile fraction and the freight revenue mile fraction,
weighted to reflect the person's relative gross receipts
from passenger and freight airline transportation.
(e) Combined apportionment. Where 2 or more persons are
engaged in a unitary business as described in subsection
(a)(27) of Section 1501, a part of which is conducted in this
State by one or more members of the group, the business income
attributable to this State by any such member or members shall
be apportioned by means of the combined apportionment method.
(f) Alternative allocation. If the allocation and
apportionment provisions of subsections (a) through (e) and of
subsection (h) do not, for taxable years ending before December
31, 2008, fairly represent the extent of a person's business
activity in this State, or, for taxable years ending on or
after December 31, 2008, fairly represent the market for the
person's goods, services, or other sources of business income,
the person may petition for, or the Director may, without a
petition, permit or require, in respect of all or any part of
the person's business activity, if reasonable:
(1) Separate accounting;

(2) The exclusion of any one or more factors;
(3) The inclusion of one or more additional factors
which will fairly represent the person's business
activities or market in this State; or
(4) The employment of any other method to effectuate an
equitable allocation and apportionment of the person's
business income.
(g) Cross reference. For allocation of business income by
residents, see Section 301(a).
(h) For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998, the
apportionment factor of persons who apportion their business
income to this State under subsection (a) shall be equal to:
(1) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1998
and before December 31, 1999, 16 2/3% of the property
factor plus 16 2/3% of the payroll factor plus 66 2/3% of
the sales factor;
(2) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 1999
and before December 31, 2000, 8 1/3% of the property factor
plus 8 1/3% of the payroll factor plus 83 1/3% of the sales
factor;
(3) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2000,
the sales factor.
If, in any tax year ending on or after December 31, 1998 and
before December 31, 2000, the denominator of the payroll,
property, or sales factor is zero, the apportionment factor
computed in paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection for that

year shall be divided by an amount equal to 100% minus the
percentage weight given to each factor whose denominator is
equal to zero.

(35 ILCS 5/601) (from Ch. 120, par. 6-601)
Sec. 601. Payment on Due Date of Return.
(a) In general. Every taxpayer required to file a return
under this Act shall, without assessment, notice or demand, pay
any tax due thereon to the Department, at the place fixed for
filing, on or before the date fixed for filing such return
(determined without regard to any extension of time for filing
the return) pursuant to regulations prescribed by the
Department. If, however, the due date for payment of a
taxpayer's federal income tax liability for a tax year (as
provided in the Internal Revenue Code or by Treasury
regulation, or as extended by the Internal Revenue Service) is
later than the date fixed for filing the taxpayer's Illinois
income tax return for that tax year, the Department may, by
rule, prescribe a due date for payment that is not later than
the due date for payment of the taxpayer's federal income tax
liability. For purposes of the Illinois Administrative
Procedure Act, the adoption of rules to prescribe a later due
date for payment shall be deemed an emergency and necessary for
the public interest, safety, and welfare.
(b) Amount payable. In making payment as provided in this

section there shall remain payable only the balance of such tax
remaining due after giving effect to the following:
(1) Withheld tax. Any amount withheld during any
calendar year pursuant to Article 7 from compensation paid
to a taxpayer shall be deemed to have been paid on account
of any tax imposed by subsections 201(a) and (b) of this
Act on such taxpayer for his taxable year beginning in such
calendar year. If more than one taxable year begins in a
calendar year, such amount shall be deemed to have been
paid on account of such tax for the last taxable year so
beginning.
(2) Estimated and tentative tax payments. Any amount of
estimated tax paid by a taxpayer pursuant to Article 8 for
a taxable year shall be deemed to have been paid on account
of the tax imposed by this Act for such taxable year.
(3) Foreign tax. The aggregate amount of tax which is
imposed upon or measured by income and which is paid by a
resident for a taxable year to another state or states on
income which is also subject to the tax imposed by
subsections 201(a) and (b) of this Act shall be credited
against the tax imposed by subsections 201(a) and (b)
otherwise due under this Act for such taxable year. For
taxable years ending prior to December 31, 2009, the
aggregate credit provided under this paragraph shall not
exceed that amount which bears the same ratio to the tax
imposed by subsections 201(a) and (b) otherwise due under

this Act as the amount of the taxpayer's base income
subject to tax both by such other state or states and by
this State bears to his total base income subject to tax by
this State for the taxable year. For taxable years ending
on or after December 31, 2009, the credit provided under
this paragraph for tax paid to other states shall not
exceed that amount which bears the same ratio to the tax
imposed by subsections 201(a) and (b) otherwise due under
this Act as the amount of the taxpayer's base income that
would be allocated or apportioned to other states if all
other states had adopted the provisions in Article 3 of
this Act bears to the taxpayer's total base income subject
to tax by this State for the taxable year. This subsection
is exempt from the 30-day threshold set forth in
subparagraph (iii) of paragraph (B) of item (2) of
subsection (a) of Section 304. The credit provided by this
paragraph shall not be allowed if any creditable tax was
deducted in determining base income for the taxable year.
Any person claiming such credit shall attach a statement in
support thereof and shall notify the Director of any refund
or reductions in the amount of tax claimed as a credit
hereunder all in such manner and at such time as the
Department shall by regulations prescribe.
(4) Accumulation and capital gain distributions. If
the net income of a taxpayer includes amounts included in
his base income by reason of Section 667 of the Internal

Revenue Code (relating to accumulation and capital gain
distributions by a trust, respectively), the tax imposed on
such taxpayer by this Act shall be credited with his pro
rata portion of the taxes imposed by this Act on such trust
for preceding taxable years which would not have been
payable for such preceding years if the trust had in fact
made distributions to its beneficiaries at the times and in
the amounts specified in Sections 666 and 669 of the
Internal Revenue Code. The credit provided by this
paragraph shall not reduce the tax otherwise due from the
taxpayer to an amount less than that which would be due if
the amounts included by reason of Section 667 of the
Internal Revenue Code were excluded from his or her base
income.
(c) Cross reference. For application against tax due of
overpayments of tax for a prior year, see Section 909.

Sec. 701. Requirement and Amount of Withholding.
(a) In General. Every employer maintaining an office or
transacting business within this State and required under the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to withhold a tax on:
(1) compensation paid in this State (as determined
under Section 304(a)(2)(B) to an individual; or
(2) payments described in subsection (b) shall deduct

and withhold from such compensation for each payroll period
(as defined in Section 3401 of the Internal Revenue Code)
an amount equal to the amount by which such individual's
compensation exceeds the proportionate part of this
withholding exemption (computed as provided in Section
702) attributable to the payroll period for which such
compensation is payable multiplied by a percentage equal to
the percentage tax rate for individuals provided in
subsection (b) of Section 201.
(a-5) Withholding from nonresident employees. For taxable
years beginning on or after January 1, 2020, for purposes of
determining compensation paid in this State under paragraph (B)
of item (2) of subsection (a) of Section 304:
(1) If an employer maintains a time and attendance
system that tracks where employees perform services on a
daily basis, then data from the time and attendance system
shall be used. For purposes of this paragraph, time and
attendance system means a system:
(A) in which the employee is required, on a
contemporaneous basis, to record the work location for
every day worked outside of the State where the
employment duties are primarily performed; and
(B) that is designed to allow the employer to
allocate the employee's wages for income tax purposes
among all states in which the employee performs
services.

(2) In all other cases, the employer shall obtain a
written statement from the employee of the number of days
reasonably expected to be spent performing services in this
State during the taxable year. Absent the employer's actual
knowledge of fraud or gross negligence by the employee in
making the determination or collusion between the employer
and the employee to evade tax, the certification so made by
the employee and maintained in the employer's books and
records shall be prima facie evidence and constitute a
rebuttable presumption of the number of days spent
performing services in this State.
(b) Payment to Residents. Any payment (including
compensation, but not including a payment from which
withholding is required under Section 710 of this Act) to a
resident by a payor maintaining an office or transacting
business within this State (including any agency, officer, or
employee of this State or of any political subdivision of this
State) and on which withholding of tax is required under the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deemed to be
compensation paid in this State by an employer to an employee
for the purposes of Article 7 and Section 601(b)(1) to the
extent such payment is included in the recipient's base income
and not subjected to withholding by another state.
Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, no amount
shall be withheld from unemployment insurance benefit payments
made to an individual pursuant to the Unemployment Insurance

Act unless the individual has voluntarily elected the
withholding pursuant to rules promulgated by the Director of
Employment Security.
(c) Special Definitions. Withholding shall be considered
required under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code to
the extent the Internal Revenue Code either requires
withholding or allows for voluntary withholding the payor and
recipient have entered into such a voluntary withholding
agreement. For the purposes of Article 7 and Section 1002(c)
the term "employer" includes any payor who is required to
withhold tax pursuant to this Section.
(d) Reciprocal Exemption. The Director may enter into an
agreement with the taxing authorities of any state which
imposes a tax on or measured by income to provide that
compensation paid in such state to residents of this State
shall be exempt from withholding of such tax; in such case, any
compensation paid in this State to residents of such state
shall be exempt from withholding. All reciprocal agreements
shall be subject to the requirements of Section 2505-575 of the
Department of Revenue Law (20 ILCS 2505/2505-575).
(e) Notwithstanding subsection (a)(2) of this Section, no
withholding is required on payments for which withholding is
required under Section 3405 or 3406 of the Internal Revenue
Code.
