      2022 IL-1041 Schedule NR Instructions

General Information
What is the purpose of Schedule NR?
Do not use this schedule if you are filing Form IL-1040, Individual Income Tax Return.
Schedule NR allows a trust or estate that is a nonresident of Illinois to determine the income that is taxed by Illinois during the tax 
year. Resident trusts and estates are not permitted to allocate their fiduciary base income.
Attach Illinois Schedule NR to your Form IL-1041.

What is a nonresident trust or estate?
A nonresident trust or estate is defined as 
   the estate of a decedent who at his or her death was not domiciled in Illinois;
   a trust created by a will of a decedent who at his or her death was not domiciled in Illinois; or
   an irrevocable trust, whose grantor was not domiciled in Illinois at the time the trust became irrevocable. For purposes of this 
  definition, a trust is irrevocable to the extent that the grantor is not treated as the owner of the trust under Internal Revenue Code 
  (IRC) Sections 671 through 678. 
Note: Your domicile is the place where you reside and the place where you intend to return after temporary absences.

What is business income?
Business income means all income, other than employee compensation, that may be apportioned among the states in which you are 
doing business without violating the Constitution of the United States. All income of a trust or estate is business income unless it is 
clearly attributable to only one state and is earned or received through activities totally unrelated to any business you are conducting 
in more than one state. Business income is net of all deductions attributable to that income.

When is business income allocable to Illinois?
For a nonresident of Illinois whose business income is derived 
   wholly inside Illinois, the entire amount of business income is allocable to Illinois.
   wholly outside Illinois, none of the business income is allocable to Illinois.
   inside and outside Illinois, you must complete Illinois Schedule NR, Step 6, Figure your business income apportionment factor. You 
  will use this factor to figure the Illinois portion of each item of your business income. 
   from S corporations, partnerships, and other fiduciaries, the business income may be allocable to Illinois. See the Illinois Schedule 
  K-1-P, Partner’s or Shareholder’s Share of Income, Deductions, Credits, and Recapture, furnished by the S corporation or 
  partnership or the Illinois Schedule K-1-T, Beneficiary’s Share of Income and Deductions, furnished by the trust or estate to 
  determine what income is allocable to Illinois.

What is nonbusiness income?
Nonbusiness income is all income other than business income or employee compensation. It is income you can clearly classify as 
having no connection to your business.

When is nonbusiness income allocable to Illinois?
For a nonresident of Illinois, items of income and deduction that constitute nonbusiness income are allocable to Illinois according to 
the following rules:
  Interest and dividend income received by a nonresident trust or estate is not allocable to Illinois. 
  Net rents and royalties:
  Real property  Rents and royalties from real property are allocable to Illinois if the property is located in Illinois.
  Tangible personal property  Rents and royalties from tangible personal property are allocable to Illinois by multiplying the rents 
  and royalties derived from the property by a fraction, in which the numerator is the number of days in which the property is located 
  in Illinois during the rental and royalty period in the tax year, and the denominator is the total number of days of all rental or royalty 
  periods in the tax year. 
  Patent and copyright royalties are allocable to Illinois to the extent that the patent or copyright is used in Illinois. 
  A patent is used in Illinois to the extent that it is employed in production, fabrication, manufacturing, or other processing in Illinois or 
  to the extent that a patented product is produced in Illinois.
  A copyright is used in Illinois to the extent that printing or other publication originates in Illinois.
  Gains and losses from sales or exchanges of real or tangible personal property are in Illinois if the property is located in Illinois 
  at the time of the sale or exchange. Gains or losses from the sale or exchange of intangible personal property are not allocable to 
  Illinois.

  Illinois State Lottery winnings and proceeds from sales or other transfers of rights to lottery winnings are allocable to 
  Illinois.

  Other unspecified items of income or deduction of a nonresident trust or estate are not allocable to Illinois.

  received it directly. See the Illinois Schedule K-1-P furnished by the S corporation or partnership, or the Illinois Schedule K-1-T 
  furnished by the fiduciary to determine what income is allocable to Illinois.

Should I round?

Line 52 — Follow the instructions on the form. Short-year filers only - If Line 52 is zero, or a negative number, skip Line 53 and see 
the instructions for Line 54 concerning prorating your standard exemption.
Line 54 — You are entitled to deduct a standard exemption in computing net income. The amount of the standard exemption is 
$1,000, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is your base income allocable to Illinois for the tax year and the denominator of 
which is total base income for the tax year. 
Short-year filers only - If you have a change in your tax year end and the result is a period of less than 12 months, the standard 
exemption is prorated based on the number of days in the tax year. 
First or final return filers only - If the Form IL-1041 you are filing is a first or final return (even if the return is a short-year return) you 
are not required to prorate the standard exemption based on the number of days in the tax year.

Step 6 — Figure your business income apportionment factor
Who must complete Step 6?
You must complete Step 6 if the trust or estate derived business income or loss from both inside and outside of Illinois. The 
apportionment factor is applied to items of business income or loss in Steps 3 and 4 to determine the amount of business income or 
loss apportionable to Illinois. The apportionment factor is also used to apportion business income or loss on Illinois Schedule K-1-T for 
each beneficiary. 
Note: If you are a partner engaged in unitary business with your partnership, you must include your distributive share of the “everywhere” 
and “Illinois” sales factors from the partnership in your “everywhere” and “Illinois” sales factors. For more information, see the 86 Ill. Adm. 
Code 100.3380(d).
Line 1 — Enter your total sales everywhere. 
Line 2 — Enter your total sales inside Illinois. 
In general, “sales” means all gross receipts included in business income.
Include gross receipts from the license, sale, or other disposition of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and similar items of intangible 
personal property in the numerator and denominator of your sales factor only if these gross receipts are more than 50 percent of the 
total gross receipts included in gross income for this tax year and each of the two immediately preceding tax years.
Do not include the following items of income in the numerator or denominator of your sales factor:
  dividends;
  amounts included under IRC Section 78;
  subpart F income as defined in IRC Section 952; and
  any item of income excluded or deducted from base income.
For more information on what should be included in the numerator and denominator of your sales factor, see 86 Ill. Adm. Code 
100.3370 and 100.3380.
Sales of tangible personal property are inside Illinois if
  the property is delivered or shipped from anywhere to a purchaser in Illinois, other than the United States government, regardless 
 of the Free on Board (FOB) point or other conditions of the sale;
  the property is shipped from Illinois to any place and the purchaser is the United States government; or
  the property is shipped from Illinois to another state and you are not taxable in the state of the purchaser or you did not file a tax 
 return in the state of the purchaser.
 For radio and television broadcasting (including cable and satellite broadcasting), the following sales are in Illinois:
   advertising revenue received from an advertiser whose headquarters is in Illinois;
   fees received by a broadcaster from its viewers or listeners in Illinois;
   in the case of fees received by a broadcaster from the  producer or other owner of the contents of a program, the percentage of 
 the fees equal to the percentage of the broadcast’s viewing or listening audience located in Illinois; 
   in the case of a broadcaster who owns the contents of a program, the percentage of the fees received from another broadcaster 
 for the right to broadcast the program equal to the percentage of the broadcast’s viewing or listening audience located in Illinois; 
 and 
   in the case of a person who owns the contents of a program and who is not a broadcaster, the percentage of the fees  
 received for that program from a broadcaster located in Illinois. 
If the “sales everywhere” amount includes gross receipts from the licensing, sale, or other disposition of patents, copyrights, 
trademarks, and other similar items of intangible personal property and the receipts are not covered by the broadcasting rules, then 

IL-1041 Schedule NR Instructions (R-12/22)                                                                                      Page 7 of 10

these receipts should be attributed to Illinois to the extent the item is used in Illinois during the year the gross receipts are included in 
gross income. An item is used in Illinois if 
  a patent is employed in production, fabrication, manufacturing, or other processing in Illinois or if the patented product is produced 
in Illinois;
  copyrighted material is printed or other publications originated in Illinois; or
  the commercial domicile of the licensee or purchaser of a trademark or other item of intangible personal property is in Illinois.
Note: If you cannot determine from your books and records (or the books and records of a related person) in which state an item is 
used, do not include the gross receipts from that item in the numerator or the denominator of the sales factor.
For sales of telecommunications services, the following sales are in Illinois:
  sales of telecommunications service sold on a call-by-call basis, where the call both originates and terminates in Illinois, or the call 
either originates or terminates in Illinois and the customer’s service address is in Illinois;
  retail sales of postpaid telecommunications service if the point of origination of the signal is in Illinois;
  retail sales of prepaid telecommunications service where the purchaser receives the prepaid card or other means of conveyance at 
a location in Illinois;
  charges imposed at a channel termination point in Illinois;
  charges for channel mileage between two channel termination points in Illinois;
  charges for channel mileage between one or more channel termination points in Illinois and one or more channel termination points 
outside Illinois, times the number of channel termination points in Illinois divided by total termination channels;
  charges for services ancillary to sales of services in Illinois. If you provide ancillary services, but cannot determine where the sales 
of the related services are located, your sales are in Illinois if your customer is in Illinois;
  access fees charged to a reseller of telecommunication for a call that both originates and terminates in Illinois;
  50 percent of access fees charged to a reseller of telecommunications services for an interstate call that originates or terminates in 
Illinois;
  end user access line charges, if the customer’s service address is in Illinois.
For more information see 86 Ill. Adm. Code 100.3371.
Illinois lottery winnings and proceeds from sales or other transfers of rights to lottery winnings are in Illinois.
Sales, other than sales of tangible personal property or telecommunications service, and gross receipts from broadcasting, or the 
licensing, sale, or other disposition of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and similar items of intangible personal property, or Illinois 
lottery winnings or sales proceeds, are in Illinois as follows:
  sales or leases of real property in Illinois;
  leases or rentals of tangible personal property, to the extent it is located in Illinois during the rental period;
  interest, net gains, and other items of income from intangible personal property received by a taxpayer who is a dealer in that 
property from a customer who is a resident of Illinois (for individuals) or who is commercially domiciled in Illinois (for all other 
customers). A taxpayer without actual knowledge of the residence or commercial domicile of a customer may use the customer’s 
billing address.
  interest, net gains, and other items of income from intangible personal property received by a taxpayer who is not a dealer in that 
property, if the income-producing activity is performed in Illinois or if the income-producing activity is performed inside and outside 
Illinois, and a greater proportion of the income-producing activity is performed inside Illinois rather than outside Illinois, based on 
performance costs;
  in all other cases, if the services are received in Illinois.
For more information, see 86 Ill. Adm. Code 100.3370.

 unsecured commercial or installment loans where the proceeds of the loan are applied in Illinois. If the place of  application  
      cannot be determined, the gross receipts are in Illinois if the office of the borrower from which the loan was negotiated is  
      in Illinois. If neither the place of application nor the office of the borrower can be determined, do not include the gross  
      receipts in Lines 1 or 2; and
  credit card receivables billed to a customer in Illinois.
   sales of travelers checks and money orders at a location in Illinois;
   interest, dividends, net gains, and other income from investment and trading assets and activities, where the majority of your 
  contacts with the asset or activity is in Illinois. The state to which an asset or activity is assigned in your books and records for 
  federal or state regulatory requirements is presumed to be proper unless a majority of the evidence shows otherwise or you do not 
  have a fixed place of business in that state. If the place with the majority of contacts cannot be determined under these rules, the 
  gross receipts are in Illinois if your commercial domicile is in Illinois. 
   any other transaction, if the gross receipts would be included on Line 2 under the general instructions for Line 2. 
For more information see 86 Ill. Adm. Code 100.3405.
Divide Line 2 by Line 1 and enter the result, rounded to six decimal places, on Line 3. 

What if I am a transportation service?
If you are a company that furnishes transportation service both inside and outside Illinois, line out the word “sales” on Lines 1 and 2 
and write “Transportation.” You must apportion business income as follows:
A  Transportation by airline On Line 1, enter the amount of revenue miles everywhere. On Line 2, enter the amount of revenue 
  miles in Illinois. Divide Line 2 by Line 1 and enter the result, rounded to six decimal places, on Line 3.
B  Other modes of transportation — On Line 1, enter the amount of your gross receipts from providing transportation services. On 
  Line 2, enter the amount of gross receipts from Illinois, as follows:
      all gross receipts from transportation that both originates and terminates in Illinois; and
      gross receipts from interstate transportation, multiplied by a fraction equal to the miles traveled in Illinois on all interstate trips  
      divided by miles traveled everywhere on all interstate trips.
Divide Line 2 by Line 1 and enter the result, rounded to six decimal places, on Line 3.
C  Transportation of both freight and passengers or transportation by airline and other modes — Compute separate fractions 
  for freight transportation and passenger transportation by airline and for freight transportation and passenger transportation by all 
  other modes of transportation under A and B, and enter on Line 3 the average of those fractions, weighted by the gross receipts 
  from freight or passenger transportation by airline or other modes, rounded to six decimal places.
For more information see 86 Ill. Adm. Code 100.3450. 

What if I am a federally regulated exchange?
A federally regulated exchange is
     a registered entity as defined in 7 U.S.C. Sections 1a(40)(A), 1a(40)(B), or 1a(40)(C);
     an exchange or clearing agency as defined in 15 U.S.C. Sections 78c (a)(1) or 78c (a)(23);
     any entity regulated under any successor regulatory structure to a registered entity, exchange, or clearing agency; or
     any member of the same unitary business group (determined without regard to the prohibition against including taxpayers using  
    different apportionment formulas in the same group) as a federally regulated exchange. This provision applies only if 50 percent  
    or more of the business receipts of the unitary business group for the taxable year are attributable to the matching, execution, or  
    clearing of transactions conducted by members of the group described in the first three bullet points above.
If you are a federally regulated exchange that is electing to use a special apportionment formula this year and your income is derived 
from inside and outside Illinois, line out the word “sales” on Lines 1 and 2 and write “Exchange.” You may apportion your business 
income as follows:
   On Line 1, enter the amount of business income from all sources. 
   On Line 2, enter the amount of business income from:
   – receipts attributable to transactions executed on a physical trading floor located in Illinois;
   – receipts attributable to all other matching, execution, or clearing transactions. This includes, without limitation, receipts from the  
     provision of matching, execution, or clearing services to another entity. 
           Multiply this amount by 27.54 percent (.2754) for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2013; and
    – all other receipts for sales in Illinois.
   Divide Line 2 by Line 1, and enter the result, rounded to six decimal places, on Line 3. 
Note: For any tax year, the Illinois apportionment percentage computed using this formula may never be less than the Illinois apportionment 
percentage computed for the first full tax year ending on or after December 31, 2013, for which the taxpayer used this formula.
