§ 1-40. Returns.
(a) Cigarette machine operators shall file a return and remit the tax imposed by Section 1-10 by the 15th day of each month covering the preceding calendar month. Each such return shall show: the quantity of cigarettes made or fabricated during the period covered by the return; the beginning and ending meter reading for each cigarette machine for the period covered by the return; the quantity of such cigarettes sold or otherwise disposed of during the period covered by the return; the brand family and manufacturer and quantity of tobacco products used to make or fabricate cigarettes by use of a cigarette machine; the license number of each distributor from whom tobacco products are purchased; the type and quantity of cigarette tubes purchased for use in a cigarette machine; the type and quantity of cigarette tubes used in a cigarette machine; and such other information as the Department may require. Such returns shall be filed on forms prescribed and furnished by the Department. The Department may promulgate rules to require that the cigarette machine operator's return be accompanied by appropriate computer-generated magnetic media supporting schedule data in the format required by the Department, unless, as provided by rule, the Department grants an exception upon petition of a cigarette machine operator.
Cigarette machine operators shall send a copy of those returns, together with supporting schedule data, to the Attorney General's Office by the 15th day of each month for the period covering the preceding calendar month.
(b) Cigarette machine operators may take a credit against any tax due under Section 1-10 of this Act for taxes imposed and paid under the Tobacco Products Tax Act of 1995 on tobacco products sold to a customer and used in a rolling machine located at the cigarette machine operator's place of business. To be eligible for such credit, the tobacco product must meet the requirements of subsection (a) of Section 1-25 of this Act. This subsection (b) is exempt from the provisions of Section 1-155 of this Act.
(c) If any payment provided for in this Section exceeds the cigarette machine operator's liabilities under this Act, as shown on an original return, the cigarette machine operator may credit such excess payment against liability subsequently to be remitted to the Department under this Act, in accordance with reasonable rules adopted by the Department.
