Taxpayers who are new to Illinois shall be 21 deemed to have met the 1% growth in base employment for 22 the first year in which they file employment records with 23 the Illinois Department of Employment Security. The 24 provisions added to this Section by Public Act 85-1200 25 (and restored by Public Act 87-895) shall be construed as 26 declaratory of existing law and not as a new enactment. 27 If, in any year, the increase in base employment within 28 Illinois over the preceding year is less than 1%, the 29 additional credit shall be limited to that percentage 30 times a fraction, the numerator of which is .5% and the 31 denominator of which is 1%, but shall not exceed .5%. 32 The investment credit shall not be allowed to the extent 33 that it would reduce a taxpayer's liability in any tax 34 year below zero, nor may any credit for qualified HB2950 Enrolled -4- LRB9008806KDcd 1 property be allowed for any year other than the year in 2 which the property was placed in service in Illinois. For 3 tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, and on or 4 before December 31, 1988, the credit shall be allowed for 5 the tax year in which the property is placed in service, 6 or, if the amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability 7 for that year, whether it exceeds the original liability 8 or the liability as later amended, such excess may be 9 carried forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 10 taxable years following the excess credit years if the 11 taxpayer (i) makes investments which cause the creation 12 of a minimum of 2,000 full-time equivalent jobs in 13 Illinois, (ii) is located in an enterprise zone 14 established pursuant to the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act 15 and (iii) is certified by the Department of Commerce and 16 Community Affairs as complying with the requirements 17 specified in clause (i) and (ii) by July 1, 1986. The 18 Department of Commerce and Community Affairs shall notify 19 the Department of Revenue of all such certifications 20 immediately. For tax years ending after December 31, 21 1988, the credit shall be allowed for the tax year in 22 which the property is placed in service, or, if the 23 amount of the credit exceeds the tax liability for that 24 year, whether it exceeds the original liability or the 25 liability as later amended, such excess may be carried 26 forward and applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable 27 years following the excess credit years. The credit shall 28 be applied to the earliest year for which there is a 29 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year 30 that is available to offset a liability, earlier credit 31 shall be applied first. 32 (2) The term "qualified property" means property 33 which: 34 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, HB2950 Enrolled -5- LRB9008806KDcd 1 including buildings and structural components of 2 buildings and signs that are real property, but not 3 including land or improvements to real property that 4 are not a structural component of a building such as 5 landscaping, sewer lines, local access roads, 6 fencing, parking lots, and other appurtenances; 7 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 8 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 9 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 10 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 11 subsection (e); 12 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 13 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; 14 (D) is used in Illinois by a taxpayer who is 15 primarily engaged in manufacturing, or in mining 16 coal or fluorite, or in retailing; and 17 (E) has not previously been used in Illinois 18 in such a manner and by such a person as would 19 qualify for the credit provided by this subsection 20 (e) or subsection (f). 21 (3) For purposes of this subsection (e), 22 "manufacturing" means the material staging and production 23 of tangible personal property by procedures commonly 24 regarded as manufacturing, processing, fabrication, or 25 assembling which changes some existing material into new 26 shapes, new qualities, or new combinations.

Such increase shall be 18 determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which 19 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for 20 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such 21 property from such computation and, (ii) subtracting such 22 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously 23 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (7), a 24 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting 25 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be 26 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent 27 of such reduction. 28 (8) Unless the investment credit is extended by 29 law, the basis of qualified property shall not include 30 costs incurred after December 31, 2003, except for costs 31 incurred pursuant to a binding contract entered into on 32 or before December 31, 2003. 33 (9) Each taxable year, a partnership may elect to 34 pass through to its partners the credits to which the HB2950 Enrolled -7- LRB9008806KDcd 1 partnership is entitled under this subsection (e) for the 2 taxable year. A partner may use the credit allocated to 3 him or her under this paragraph only against the tax 4 imposed in subsections (c) and (d) of this Section. If 5 the partnership makes that election, those credits shall 6 be allocated among the partners in the partnership in 7 accordance with the rules set forth in Section 704(b) of 8 the Internal Revenue Code, and the rules promulgated 9 under that Section, and the allocated amount of the 10 credits shall be allowed to the partners for that taxable 11 year.

The 26 credit shall be .5% of the basis for such property. The 27 credit shall be available only in the taxable year in 28 which the property is placed in service in the Enterprise 29 Zone and shall not be allowed to the extent that it would 30 reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed by 31 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. 32 For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1985, the 33 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the 34 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the HB2950 Enrolled -8- LRB9008806KDcd 1 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether 2 it exceeds the original liability or the liability as 3 later amended, such excess may be carried forward and 4 applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years 5 following the excess credit year. The credit shall be 6 applied to the earliest year for which there is a 7 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax year 8 that is available to offset a liability, the credit 9 accruing first in time shall be applied first. 10 (2) The term qualified property means property 11 which: 12 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, 13 including buildings and structural components of 14 buildings; 15 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 16 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 17 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 18 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 19 subsection (f); 20 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 21 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; 22 (D) is used in the Enterprise Zone by the 23 taxpayer; and 24 (E) has not been previously used in Illinois 25 in such a manner and by such a person as would 26 qualify for the credit provided by this subsection 27 (f) or subsection (e). 28 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the 29 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for 30 federal income tax purposes. 31 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income 32 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been 33 placed in service in the Enterprise Zone by the taxpayer, 34 the amount of such increase shall be deemed property HB2950 Enrolled -9- LRB9008806KDcd 1 placed in service on the date of such increase in basis. 2 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the 3 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue 4 Code. 5 (6) If during any taxable year, any property ceases 6 to be qualified property in the hands of the taxpayer 7 within 48 months after being placed in service, or the 8 situs of any qualified property is moved outside the 9 Enterprise Zone within 48 months after being placed in 10 service, the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of 11 this Section for such taxable year shall be increased. 12 Such increase shall be determined by (i) recomputing the 13 investment credit which would have been allowed for the 14 year in which credit for such property was originally 15 allowed by eliminating such property from such 16 computation, and (ii) subtracting such recomputed credit 17 from the amount of credit previously allowed. For the 18 purposes of this paragraph (6), a reduction of the basis 19 of qualified property resulting from a redetermination of 20 the purchase price shall be deemed a disposition of 21 qualified property to the extent of such reduction. 22 (g) Jobs Tax Credit; Enterprise Zone and Foreign 23 Trade Zone or Sub-Zone. 24 (1) A taxpayer conducting a trade or business in an 25 enterprise zone or a High Impact Business designated by 26 the Department of Commerce and Community Affairs 27 conducting a trade or business in a federally designated 28 Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone shall be allowed a credit 29 against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of 30 this Section in the amount of $500 per eligible employee 31 hired to work in the zone during the taxable year. 32 (2) To qualify for the credit: 33 (A) the taxpayer must hire 5 or more eligible 34 employees to work in an enterprise zone or federally HB2950 Enrolled -10- LRB9008806KDcd 1 designated Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone during the 2 taxable year; 3 (B) the taxpayer's total employment within the 4 enterprise zone or federally designated Foreign 5 Trade Zone or Sub-Zone must increase by 5 or more 6 full-time employees beyond the total employed in 7 that zone at the end of the previous tax year for 8 which a jobs tax credit under this Section was 9 taken, or beyond the total employed by the taxpayer 10 as of December 31, 1985, whichever is later; and 11 (C) the eligible employees must be employed 12 180 consecutive days in order to be deemed hired for 13 purposes of this subsection. 14 (3) An "eligible employee" means an employee who 15 is: 16 (A) Certified by the Department of Commerce 17 and Community Affairs as "eligible for services" 18 pursuant to regulations promulgated in accordance 19 with Title II of the Job Training Partnership Act, 20 Training Services for the Disadvantaged or Title III 21 of the Job Training Partnership Act, Employment and 22 Training Assistance for Dislocated Workers Program. 23 (B) Hired after the enterprise zone or 24 federally designated Foreign Trade Zone or Sub-Zone 25 was designated or the trade or business was located 26 in that zone, whichever is later. 27 (C) Employed in the enterprise zone or Foreign 28 Trade Zone or Sub-Zone.

The credit shall be applied to the earliest 13 year for which there is a liability. If there is credit 14 from more than one tax year that is available to offset a 15 liability, earlier credit shall be applied first. 16 (5) The Department of Revenue shall promulgate such 17 rules and regulations as may be deemed necessary to carry 18 out the purposes of this subsection (g). 19 (6) The credit shall be available for eligible 20 employees hired on or after January 1, 1986. 21 (h) Investment credit; High Impact Business. 22 (1) Subject to subsection (b) of Section 5.5 of the 23 Illinois Enterprise Zone Act, a taxpayer shall be allowed 24 a credit against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and 25 (b) of this Section for investment in qualified property 26 which is placed in service by a Department of Commerce 27 and Community Affairs designated High Impact Business. 28 The credit shall be .5% of the basis for such property. 29 The credit shall not be available until the minimum 30 investments in qualified property set forth in Section 31 5.5 of the Illinois Enterprise Zone Act have been 32 satisfied and shall not be allowed to the extent that it 33 would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed 34 by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. HB2950 Enrolled -12- LRB9008806KDcd 1 The credit applicable to such minimum investments shall 2 be taken in the taxable year in which such minimum 3 investments have been completed. The credit for 4 additional investments beyond the minimum investment by a 5 designated high impact business shall be available only 6 in the taxable year in which the property is placed in 7 service and shall not be allowed to the extent that it 8 would reduce a taxpayer's liability for the tax imposed 9 by subsections (a) and (b) of this Section to below zero. 10 For tax years ending on or after December 31, 1987, the 11 credit shall be allowed for the tax year in which the 12 property is placed in service, or, if the amount of the 13 credit exceeds the tax liability for that year, whether 14 it exceeds the original liability or the liability as 15 later amended, such excess may be carried forward and 16 applied to the tax liability of the 5 taxable years 17 following the excess credit year. The credit shall be 18 applied to the earliest year for which there is a 19 liability. If there is credit from more than one tax 20 year that is available to offset a liability, the credit 21 accruing first in time shall be applied first. 22 Changes made in this subdivision (h)(1) by Public 23 Act 88-670 restore changes made by Public Act 85-1182 and 24 reflect existing law. 25 (2) The term qualified property means property 26 which: 27 (A) is tangible, whether new or used, 28 including buildings and structural components of 29 buildings; 30 (B) is depreciable pursuant to Section 167 of 31 the Internal Revenue Code, except that "3-year 32 property" as defined in Section 168(c)(2)(A) of that 33 Code is not eligible for the credit provided by this 34 subsection (h); HB2950 Enrolled -13- LRB9008806KDcd 1 (C) is acquired by purchase as defined in 2 Section 179(d) of the Internal Revenue Code; and 3 (D) is not eligible for the Enterprise Zone 4 Investment Credit provided by subsection (f) of this 5 Section. 6 (3) The basis of qualified property shall be the 7 basis used to compute the depreciation deduction for 8 federal income tax purposes. 9 (4) If the basis of the property for federal income 10 tax depreciation purposes is increased after it has been 11 placed in service in a federally designated Foreign Trade 12 Zone or Sub-Zone located in Illinois by the taxpayer, the 13 amount of such increase shall be deemed property placed 14 in service on the date of such increase in basis. 15 (5) The term "placed in service" shall have the 16 same meaning as under Section 46 of the Internal Revenue 17 Code. 18 (6) If during any taxable year ending on or before 19 December 31, 1996, any property ceases to be qualified 20 property in the hands of the taxpayer within 48 months 21 after being placed in service, or the situs of any 22 qualified property is moved outside Illinois within 48 23 months after being placed in service, the tax imposed 24 under subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for such 25 taxable year shall be increased. Such increase shall be 26 determined by (i) recomputing the investment credit which 27 would have been allowed for the year in which credit for 28 such property was originally allowed by eliminating such 29 property from such computation, and (ii) subtracting such 30 recomputed credit from the amount of credit previously 31 allowed. For the purposes of this paragraph (6), a 32 reduction of the basis of qualified property resulting 33 from a redetermination of the purchase price shall be 34 deemed a disposition of qualified property to the extent HB2950 Enrolled -14- LRB9008806KDcd 1 of such reduction. 2 (7) Beginning with tax years ending after December 3 31, 1996, if a taxpayer qualifies for the credit under 4 this subsection (h) and thereby is granted a tax 5 abatement and the taxpayer relocates its entire facility 6 in violation of the explicit terms and length of the 7 contract under Section 18-183 of the Property Tax Code, 8 the tax imposed under subsections (a) and (b) of this 9 Section shall be increased for the taxable year in which 10 the taxpayer relocated its facility by an amount equal to 11 the amount of credit received by the taxpayer under this 12 subsection (h). 13 (i) A credit shall be allowed against the tax imposed by 14 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for the tax imposed 15 by subsections (c) and (d) of this Section. This credit 16 shall be computed by multiplying the tax imposed by 17 subsections (c) and (d) of this Section by a fraction, the 18 numerator of which is base income allocable to Illinois and 19 the denominator of which is Illinois base income, and further 20 multiplying the product by the tax rate imposed by 21 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section. 22 Any credit earned on or after December 31, 1986 under 23 this subsection which is unused in the year the credit is 24 computed because it exceeds the tax liability imposed by 25 subsections (a) and (b) for that year (whether it exceeds the 26 original liability or the liability as later amended) may be 27 carried forward and applied to the tax liability imposed by 28 subsections (a) and (b) of the 5 taxable years following the 29 excess credit year. This credit shall be applied first to 30 the earliest year for which there is a liability. If there 31 is a credit under this subsection from more than one tax year 32 that is available to offset a liability the earliest credit 33 arising under this subsection shall be applied first. 34 If, during any taxable year ending on or after December HB2950 Enrolled -15- LRB9008806KDcd 1 31, 1986, the tax imposed by subsections (c) and (d) of this 2 Section for which a taxpayer has claimed a credit under this 3 subsection (i) is reduced, the amount of credit for such tax 4 shall also be reduced. Such reduction shall be determined by 5 recomputing the credit to take into account the reduced tax 6 imposed by subsection (c) and (d). If any portion of the 7 reduced amount of credit has been carried to a different 8 taxable year, an amended return shall be filed for such 9 taxable year to reduce the amount of credit claimed. 10 (j) Training expense credit. Beginning with tax years 11 ending on or after December 31, 1986, a taxpayer shall be 12 allowed a credit against the tax imposed by subsection (a) 13 and (b) under this Section for all amounts paid or accrued, 14 on behalf of all persons employed by the taxpayer in Illinois 15 or Illinois residents employed outside of Illinois by a 16 taxpayer, for educational or vocational training in 17 semi-technical or technical fields or semi-skilled or skilled 18 fields, which were deducted from gross income in the 19 computation of taxable income. The credit against the tax 20 imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 1.6% of such 21 training expenses. For partners and for shareholders of 22 subchapter S corporations, there shall be allowed a credit 23 under this subsection (j) to be determined in accordance with 24 the determination of income and distributive share of income 25 under Sections 702 and 704 and subchapter S of the Internal 26 Revenue Code. 27 Any credit allowed under this subsection which is unused 28 in the year the credit is earned may be carried forward to 29 each of the 5 taxable years following the year for which the 30 credit is first computed until it is used. This credit shall 31 be applied first to the earliest year for which there is a 32 liability. If there is a credit under this subsection from 33 more than one tax year that is available to offset a 34 liability the earliest credit arising under this subsection HB2950 Enrolled -16- LRB9008806KDcd 1 shall be applied first. 2 (k) Research and development credit. 3 Beginning with tax years ending after July 1, 1990, a 4 taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by 5 subsections (a) and (b) of this Section for increasing 6 research activities in this State. The credit allowed 7 against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) shall be 8 equal to 6 1/2% of the qualifying expenditures for increasing 9 research activities in this State. 10 For purposes of this subsection, "qualifying 11 expenditures" means the qualifying expenditures as defined 12 for the federal credit for increasing research activities 13 which would be allowable under Section 41 of the Internal 14 Revenue Code and which are conducted in this State, 15 "qualifying expenditures for increasing research activities 16 in this State" means the excess of qualifying expenditures 17 for the taxable year in which incurred over qualifying 18 expenditures for the base period, "qualifying expenditures 19 for the base period" means the average of the qualifying 20 expenditures for each year in the base period, and "base 21 period" means the 3 taxable years immediately preceding the 22 taxable year for which the determination is being made. 23 Any credit in excess of the tax liability for the taxable 24 year may be carried forward.
