Unfiled Illinois sales & use tax returns

Bookmark and Share

Not filling your Illinois ST-1, or Sales and Use Tax Return is a particularly difficult situation. If you wait too long, the computer system at The Illinois Department of Revenue will automatically revoke your sales tax number, effectively putting you out of business. If you are caught selling tangible items at retail without a valid sales tax number, its a felony.

You do have options, when you have unfiled sales taxes or owe old sales taxes. Continuing to ignore the problem will not solve it. Stop the harassing letters and telephone calls. Stop the liens and levies. Stop the unscheduled visits from Revenue Officers. Stop the risk of being shut down.
