      IL-2220 Instructions                                                                                           2023

General Information
What is the purpose of this form?
This form allows you to calculate penalties you may owe if you did not
make timely estimated payments,
pay the tax you owe by the original due date, or 
file a processable return by the extended due date.
Note: The late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax is based on the tax shown due on your original return. 
Do not use the tax shown on an amended return filed after the extended due date of the return to compute your required 
installments in Step 2.
In addition, this form must be used if your income was not received evenly throughout the year and you choose to annualize 
your income. The annualized income installment method may be able to lower or eliminate the amount of your required 
installments.
To use the annualized income installment method complete Form IL-2220, Computation of Penalties for Businesses, including 
the annualization worksheet in Step 6. See the specific instructions for Step 6 for more information. If you fail to follow these 
instructions, we may calculate your late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax based on four equal installments.
Note: Check the box in Step 1 of your return and attach Form IL-2220 to your return if you are annualizing your income. 

Should I round?
You must round the dollar amounts on Form IL-2220 to whole-dollar amounts. To do this, you should drop any amount less than 
50 cents and increase any amount of 50 cents or more to the next higher dollar.

Do I need to complete this form if I owe penalties?
No, you do not need to complete this form if you owe penalties. We encourage you to let us figure your penalties and send you 
a bill instead of completing and filing this form yourself. If you let us figure your penalties, complete your return as usual and do 
not attach Form IL-2220. 
You must complete this form if you are using the annualized income installment method for late-payment penalty for 
underpayment of estimated tax in Step 6.
For more information, see Publication 103, Penalties and Interest for Illinois Taxes. To receive a copy of this publication, visit 
our website at tax.illinois.gov.

What is late-payment penalty?
A late-payment penalty is assessed when you fail to pay the tax you owe by the due date. This penalty could result from two 
different underpayment situations and is assessed at either 2 percent or 10 percent of the unpaid liability based on the number 
of days the payment is late. The penalty rates used on this form are for returns due on or after January 1, 2005. For returns 
due before January 1, 2005, see Publication 103, Penalties and Interest for Illinois Taxes.
You will be assessed a late-payment penalty for unpaid tax if you do not pay the total tax you owe by the original due date of 
the return. An extension of time to file your return does not extend the amount of time you have to make your payment.
You will be assessed a late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax if you were required to make estimated tax 
payments and failed to do so, or failed to pay the required amount by the payment due date.
Note: If in the previous taxable year you filed a short year return or a return showing no liability, you may still owe the 
late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax. See the specific instructions for details. 
You do not owe the late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated taxes if
you are filing Form IL-1120, Corporation Income and Replacement Tax Return, and 
    you were not required to file Form IL-1120 for last year; or
    your current year’s tax liability (Form IL-1120, Step 8, Line 58 minus Lines 61c, 61d, and 61e) is $400 or less; or
    you made timely estimated installment payments equaling at least 90 percent of this year’s tax liability or 100 percent of 
      the prior year’s tax liability (provided you reported a tax liability in the prior year and it was not a short taxable year).
you are filing Form IL-1120-ST or Form IL-1065 and 
    you were not required to file Form IL-1120-ST or Form IL-1065 last year; or
    you did not elect to pay pass-through entity (PTE) tax this year; or

    you elected to pay PTE tax this year, but your current year’s tax liability (Form IL-1120-ST, Step 8, Line 62 minus 
      Step 9, Lines 65c and 65d, or Form IL-1065, Step 8, Line 62 minus Step 9, Lines 65c and 65d) is $500 or less; or
    you made the election to pay PTE tax this year and you made timely estimated installment payments equaling at least 
      90 percent of this year’s tax liability or 100 percent of the prior year’s tax liability (provided you reported a tax liability in 
      the prior year and it was not a short taxable year).
you are filing Form IL-1041, Fiduciary Income and Replacement Tax Return. 
Note: You will still be assessed the late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax if you failed to pay the required 
installment amount by each installment due date.

What is late-filing or non-filing penalty?
A late-filing or non-filing penalty is a penalty assessed for failure to file a processable return by the extended due date. The 
penalty is the lesser of $250 or 2 percent of the tax amount required to be shown due on your return, reduced by any payments 
made by the original due date and any credits allowed on your return.
An additional penalty will be assessed if you do not file a processable return within 30 days of the date we notify you that we 
are not able to process your return. This additional penalty is equal to the greater of $250 or 2 percent of the tax shown due on 
your return, determined without regard to payments and credits, and may be assessed up to a maximum of $5,000. For more 
information, see Publication 103, Penalties and Interest for Illinois Taxes.

What if I underpaid my estimated tax because of a change in the law during the tax year?
If a change in the IITA enacted during the tax year increased your liability, and the new statute does not specifically provide 
for relief from penalties, you may reduce or eliminate your penalty for underpayment of estimated tax by using the annualized 
income installment method in Step 6 and computing your income and liability for each period according to the IITA in effect as 
of the end of that period. See Specific Instructions for Step 6.

Do I use the investment partnership withholding credit I received when calculating my penalties?
Some taxpayers may not be eligible to claim the investment partnership withholding credit that is reported to them on 
Schedule K-1-P, Step 7, Line 55. Partners in an investment partnership who treat the income received from the investment 
partnership as nonbusiness income may not use the amount reported to them as investment partnership withholding credit. 
If you are eligible to claim the investment partnership withholding credit you received, you may use the credit as if it were 
pass-through withholding credit when calculating your penalties. See Schedule K-1-P(2), Partner’s and Shareholder’s 
Instructions, for more information about investment partnership income.

Use Penalty Worksheet 2 to figure your late-payment penalty for unpaid tax. 
You must follow the instructions in order to properly complete the penalty worksheets.

Line 20Follow the instructions below for your tax type.
Corporations and S corporations and Partnerships who elect to pay pass-through entity tax
Enter your payments, regardless of the type of payment, and the date you made the payment. List the payments in date order. 
Include any overpayment credit(s) carried forward from a prior year original or amended return. 
Note: If you do not complete Penalty Worksheet 1, only enter payments made and credits received after the original due date 
of your tax return.
Do not include income tax credits, PTE tax credits, withholding (including gambling or sports wagering), or 
pass-through withholding (including investment partnership withholding credits) made on your behalf.
To determine the correct date to enter for overpayment credit(s) carried forward, refer to the instructions below.
If your prior year return that made the election to credit your overpayment against your 2023 tax was filed
‰  on or before the extended due date of that prior year return, your credit is considered to be paid on the due date of 
   your first estimated tax installment for the current year.
  Example 1: You filed your 2022 Form IL-1120 calendar-year return on or before the extended due date of that return 
      requesting $500 be applied against estimated tax. All of your payments were made before the original due date of your 
      2022 return. 
      In this case, your credit of $500 will be considered to be paid on April 17, 2023. Enter $500 and a date paid of 
      April 17, 2023, on Line 20.
  Example 2: You filed your 2022 Form IL-1120 calendar-year return on or before the extended due date of that return 
      requesting $500 be applied against estimated tax. Your overpayment includes payments of $400 you made before the 
      original due date of your return, and a $100 payment you made on July 3, 2023. 
      In this case, a credit of $400 will be considered to be paid on April 17, 2023. The remaining $100 credit will be 
      considered to be paid on July 3, 2023. You will enter two credits on Line 20. One for $400 reporting a date paid of 
      April 17, 2023, and another for $100 reporting a date paid of July 3, 2023.
Note: If all or a portion of your overpayment results from payments made after the due date of your first estimated tax 
installment, that portion of your credit is considered to be paid on the date you made the payment.

‰  after the extended due date of that prior year return, your credit is considered to be paid on the date you filed the return 
  on which you made the election.
 Example 3: You filed your 2022 Form IL-1120 calendar-year return on December 1, 2023, requesting $500 be applied 
      against estimated tax. 
      In this case, your credit of $500 will be considered to be paid on December 1, 2023, because you filed your return after 
      the extended due date of your 2022 calendar-year return. Enter $500 and a date paid of December 1, 2023, on Line 20.
Note: If you are filing your return after the extended due date, you may only elect to claim an overpayment credit for payments 
received on or before the date you filed your return. Any payments made after the date you filed that return can only be claimed 
as an overpayment credit on a subsequent amended return. 

All other tax types (including S corporations and Partnerships not electing to pay pass-through 
entity tax)
Enter any payments made after the original due date of your tax return, regardless of the type of payment, and the date you 
made the payment. List the payments in date order. Include any overpayment credit(s) carried forward from a prior year original 
or amended return. 
Do not include income tax credits, withholding (including gambling or sports wagering), PTE tax credits, or 
pass-through withholding (including investment partnership withholding credits) payments made on your behalf.
Only include overpayment credit(s) which are considered to be paid after the original due date of your current year tax return. 
To determine when the overpayment credit(s) are considered to be paid, refer to the following instructions. 
If your prior year return that made the election to credit your overpayment against your 2023 tax was filed
‰  on or before the extended due date of that prior year return, do not include the credit(s) on Line 20. Your credit(s) will 
  be considered to be paid before the original due date of the current year tax return. See the instructions for your return for 
  details.
‰  after the extended due date of that prior year return, your credit is considered to be paid on the date you filed the return 
  on which you made the election. 
 Example 1: You filed your 2022 Form IL-1120-ST calendar-year return late on December 1, 2023, requesting $500 be 
      applied against estimated tax. Your credit of $500 will be considered to be paid on December 1, 2023, because you filed 
      your return after the extended due date of your 2022 calendar-year return. 
      In this case, the credit is considered to be paid before the original due date of your 2023 Form IL-1120-ST, 
      March 15, 2024, and would be included on Line 20 when listing your 2023 payments.
 Example 2: You filed and paid your 2022 Form IL-1120-ST calendar-year return late on July 3, 2024, requesting $500 be 
      applied against estimated tax. Your credit of $500 will be considered to be paid on July 3, 2024, because you filed your 
      return after the extended due date of your 2022 calendar-year return. 
      In this case, the credit is considered to be paid before the original due date of your 2024 IL-1120-ST, March 17, 2025, 
      and would not be included on Line 20 when listing your 2023 payments. 
Note: If you are filing your return after the extended due date, you may only elect to claim an overpayment credit for payments 
received on or before the date you filed your return. Any payments made after the date you filed that return can only be claimed 
as an overpayment credit on a subsequent amended return.

the number of days the payment was late. 
Column H — For payments made after the due date listed in Column B, enter the penalty rate that applies to the number of 
days you entered in Column G. See the penalty rates listed on Form IL-2220, Page 2. For payments made before the due date 
listed in Column B, enter zero in Column H.
Column I — Figure this amount using the payment portion in either Column C or Column D. 
If Column D is zero or if Column E is zero or a negative figure multiply Column C by Column H. Otherwise, multiply Column D 
by Column H and enter the amount here.
Line 24 Add Column I. This is your late-payment penalty for unpaid tax. Enter the amount here and on Step 5, Line 28.

Step 5:  Figure your late-filing penalty, total penalties, and the amount you owe
Complete Lines 25 through 27 to figure your late-filing penalty only if 
you are filing your return after your extended due date; and 
your tax was not paid by the original due date. 
Otherwise, you do not owe a late-filing penalty.
Line 25Enter the amount of tax due from your return. Your tax due is tax, surcharge, pass-through withholding you owe on 
behalf of your members, and PTE tax you owe minus any credits and payments made on or before the original due date.
Line 28 Enter your late-payment penalty for unpaid tax from Step 4, Line 24. 
Line 29 If your annual tax return shows that you have an

Step 6:  Complete the annualization worksheet for Step 2, Line 12
You should complete this worksheet if your income was not received evenly throughout the year and you choose to annualize 
your income. 
If you complete this worksheet, check the box on Form IL-1120, Step 1, Line W, Form IL-1120-ST, Step 1, Line M, or 
Form IL-1065, Step 1, Line J and attach this form to your return. Beginning with Column A, complete Lines 31 through 51 of 
each column.
You must complete all lines of Columns A through D in order to use this worksheet. If you fail to complete all lines of Step 6, 
Lines 31 through 51, Columns A through D, we may disregard your election to annualize your income and calculate your 
late-payment penalty for underpayment of estimated tax based on four equal installments. 
If the IITA was amended during your tax year and changed how you compute your net income or tax, and the amendment does 
not provide relief for taxpayers who computed their estimated tax obligations following the old law, use the old law to compute 
your net income and tax for each period ending before the date the amendment became law. 
Example: If an income tax credit was repealed by law, effective June 22, 2022, for tax years ending on or after 
December 31, 2022, and the credit was reinstated July 31, 2023, for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2023, a 
calendar-year taxpayer could use the credit to reduce the tax liability on the 2022 Form IL-2220, in Columns A and B, Line 39, 
but not for Columns C or D.
The credit could be used again on the 2023 Form IL-2220, in Column D, Line 39, but not Columns A and B. The credit may 
be used in Column C of the 2023 Form IL-2220 only if the income used to compute the liability on Line 39 is the annualized 
amount for the first eight months of the year on Line 36. The credit may not be used if the annualized income for the first six 
months of the year on Line 33 is used, because the law restoring the credit was not in effect as of June 30, 2023.
Line 31 — In Columns B through D, 
Form IL-1120 filers - calculate and enter the net income that would have been shown on Form IL-1120, Step 5, Line 39, as 
  if you had completed a 2023 return for the first three months, the first six months, and the first nine months of the tax year.
   Note: Net income from Form IL-1120, Step 5, Line 39, is base income after apportionment and Illinois net loss deduction 
  (during applicable years).
Forms IL-1120-ST and IL-1065 filers who elected to pay pass-through entity tax - calculate and enter the net income 
  from Form IL-1120-ST, Step 7, Line 51, or Form IL-1065, Step 7, Line 53, as if you had completed a 2023 return for the first 
  three months, the first six months, and the first nine months of the tax year.
Line 34 — In Columns A through D, 
Form IL-1120 filers - calculate and enter the net income that would have been shown on Form IL-1120, Step 5, Line 39, 
  as if you had completed a 2023 return for the first three months, the first five months, the first eight months, and the first 
  eleven months of the tax year. 
Forms IL-1120-ST and IL-1065 filers who elected to pay pass-through entity tax - calculate and enter the net income 
  from Form IL-1120-ST, Step 7, Line 51, or Form IL-1065, Step 7, Line 53, as if you had completed a 2023 return for the first 
  three months, the first five months, the first eight months, and the first eleven months of the tax year. 
Note: To avoid a common mistake, ensure you have completed all columns of Lines 31 through 36, as applicable. If you 
complete this step, do not leave these lines blank. If you have no net income to report in a column on Lines 31 or 34 or 
amounts to enter in a column on Lines 33 or 36, enter zero on the applicable lines. Failure to comply with this requirement may 
result in further correspondence and a delay in the processing of your return.
Line 38 — Using the net income on Line 37, calculate and enter in each column the total net replacement tax that would have 
been shown on 
Form IL-1120, Step 8, Line 52, as if you had completed a 2023 Form IL-1120 for each period.
Form IL-1120-ST, Step 8, Line 56, as if you had completed a 2023 Form IL-1120-ST for each period.
Form IL-1065, Step 8, Line 58, as if you had completed a 2023 Form IL-1065 for each period.
Note: The net replacement tax from Form IL-1120 (Step 8, Line 52), Form IL-1120-ST (Step 8, Line 56), or Form IL-1065 
(Step 8, Line 58) are amounts after recapture and all appropriate credits. (Refer to Form IL-1120, Step 6, Form IL-1120-ST, 
Step 8, or Form IL-1065, Step 8.) See 86 Ill. Adm. Code 100.8010 for more information.
