reported purchases in 2014 must be filed by December 31, 2016.              If you need additional forms, visit our website at tax.illinois.gov.

What is the deadline date for filing an amended 
report?
The deadline date for filing an amended report is the last day of 
the second calendar year following the year in which you made the 
purchase of tax-exempt manufacturing or graphic arts machinery and 
equipment. For example, if you made a purchase July 20, 2013, and 
you forgot to report this purchase by June 30, 2014, you have until 
December 31, 2015, to file an amended report. However, you should 
note that the expiration date of any credit earned is not extended 
because of the filing of an amended report. All Manufacturer’s 
Purchase Credit expires the last day of the second calendar year 
following the year in which you made the purchase regardless of 
whether or not an amended report is filed.
