Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

Section 5. The Illinois Income Tax Act is amended by
changing Section 212 as follows:
(35 ILCS 5/212)
Sec. 212. Earned income tax credit.
(a) With respect to the federal earned income tax credit
allowed for the taxable year under Section 32 of the federal
Internal Revenue Code, 26 U.S.C. 32, each individual taxpayer
is entitled to a credit against the tax imposed by subsections
(a) and (b) of Section 201 in an amount equal to (i) 5% of the
federal tax credit for each taxable year beginning on or after
January 1, 2000 and ending prior to December 31, 2012, (ii)
7.5% of the federal tax credit for each taxable year beginning
on or after January 1, 2012 and ending prior to December 31,
2013, (iii) 10% of the federal tax credit for each taxable year
beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and beginning prior to
January 1, 2017, (iv) 14% of the federal tax credit for each
taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2017 and
beginning prior to January 1, 2018, (v) 18% of the federal tax
credit for each taxable year beginning on or after January 1,
2018 and beginning prior to January 1, 2023, [and] (vi) 20% of
HB4680 - 2 - LRB104 19070 HLH 32515 b
the federal tax credit for each taxable year beginning on or
after January 1, 2023 and beginning before January 1, 2026,
and (vii) 30% of the federal tax credit for each taxable year

For a non-resident or part-year resident, the amount of
the credit under this Section shall be in proportion to the
amount of income attributable to this State.
(b) For taxable years beginning before January 1, 2003, in
no event shall a credit under this Section reduce the
taxpayer's liability to less than zero. For each taxable year
beginning on or after January 1, 2003, if the amount of the
credit exceeds the income tax liability for the applicable tax
year, then the excess credit shall be refunded to the
taxpayer. The amount of a refund shall not be included in the
taxpayer's income or resources for the purposes of determining
eligibility or benefit level in any means-tested benefit
program administered by a governmental entity unless required
by federal law.
(b-5) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1,
2023, each individual taxpayer who has attained the age of 18
during the taxable year but has not yet attained the age of 25
is entitled to the credit under paragraph (a) based on the
federal tax credit for which the taxpayer would have been
eligible without regard to any age requirements that would
otherwise apply to individuals without a qualifying child in
Section 32(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the federal Internal Revenue Code.
HB4680 - 3 - LRB104 19070 HLH 32515 b

the taxpayer would have been eligible without regard to any
age requirements that would otherwise apply to individuals
without a qualifying child in Section 32(c)(1)(A)(ii) of the
federal Internal Revenue Code.
(b-15) For taxable years beginning on or after January 1,
2023, each individual taxpayer filing a return using an
individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) as prescribed
under Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code, other than a
Social Security number issued pursuant to Section 205(c)(2)(A)
of the Social Security Act, is entitled to the credit under
paragraph (a) based on the federal tax credit for which they
would have been eligible without applying the restrictions
regarding social security numbers in Section 32(m) of the
federal Internal Revenue Code.
(c) This Section is exempt from the provisions of Section
250.
