Illinois Administrative Code
Title 86 - REVENUE
Part 760 - ELECTRONIC FILING OF RETURNS OR OTHER DOCUMENTS
Section 760.320 - Electronic Payment Acknowledgments
Universal Citation: 86 IL Admin Code ยง 760.320
Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 38, September 20, 2024
a) This Section does not apply to electronic payments by electronic funds transfer under the Electronic Funds Transfer Program described in 86 Ill. Adm. Code 750.
b) The Department will normally provide acknowledgments for all electronic payments within 24 hours after receipt.
c) For Sales Tax Participants
1) The Department will provide
two different levels of acknowledgments for electronic payments. The first
level of acknowledgment is the 997 - Functional Acknowledgment. The second
level of acknowledgment is either the 151 - Electronic Filing of Tax Return
Data Acknowledgment (for electronic payment data included in an 813 transaction
set) or the 824 - Application Advice (for detailed acknowledgment of each 820 -
Payment Order/Remittance Advice transaction set). These acknowledgments are
based upon transaction sets developed and approved for Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) by the American National Standards Institute's Accredited
Standards Committee X12.
2) The
first level of acknowledgment is the 997 - Functional Acknowledgment. This
acknowledgment determines whether the electronic transmission contains any
syntax errors at any level.
A) If the 997
acknowledgment designates rejection, the entire transmission is rejected and
all the transaction sets (electronic documents and payment information)
contained in the transmission are considered not received.
B) If the 997 acknowledgment designates
acceptance, this is only evidence that the Department received a transmission
from the sender. The 997 acknowledgment is not a detailed acknowledgment of the
electronic documents or payment information contained in the transmission.
Receipt of a 997 designating acceptance does not mean that included transaction
sets (electronic documents or payment data) are accepted for processing or that
they are considered filed or received.
3) The second level of acknowledgment is
dependent upon whether the taxpayer has chosen to include the electronic
payment data as part of the 813 - Electronic Filing of Tax Return Data
transaction set or has chosen to send the payment data in a separate
transaction as an 820 - Payment Order/Remittance Advice transaction
set.
4) For taxpayers that have
chosen to include the electronic payment data as part of the 813 - Electronic
Filing of Tax Return Data transaction set and have had the 997 acknowledgment
designate acceptance, a 151 acknowledgment will be provided for each 813
transaction set contained in that transmission. The 151 acknowledgment is a
detailed acknowledgment of the electronic return and payment data included in
that 813 transaction set.
A) If the 151 -
Electronic Filing of Tax Return Data Acknowledgment designates an 813 -
Electronic Filing of Tax Return Data transaction set is rejected, the
electronic return and payment data represented by that 813 transaction set is
considered not received.
B) If the
151 - Electronic Filing of Tax Return Data Acknowledgment designates an 813 -
Electronic Filing of Tax Return Data transaction set is accepted, and the 151
also contains a confirmation number, the electronic return and payment data
represented by that 813 transaction set will be considered received, and will
be processed. If the 151 does not contain a confirmation number, it means the
payment authorization will not be processed, although the electronic return or
other document has been accepted.
5) For taxpayers that have chosen to send the
payment data in a separate transaction as an 820 - Payment Order/Remittance
Advice transaction set and have had the 997 acknowledgment designate
acceptance, an 824 - Application Advice acknowledgment will be provided for
each 820 transaction set contained in that transmission. The 824 acknowledgment
is a detailed acknowledgment of the payment data included in that 820
transaction set.
6) The 820 -
Payment Order/Remittance Advice transaction set may include one or multiple
payment authorizations. The 824 - Application Advice acknowledgment may accept
or reject an entire 820 transaction set, or any specific debit authorizations
included in the 820 transaction set.
A) If
the 824 - Application Advice acknowledgment designates the entire 820 - Payment
Order/Remittance Advice transaction set is rejected, all electronic payment
data represented by that 820 transaction set is considered not received. If
there are multiple payment authorizations included in the 820 transaction set,
none of the payment authorizations will be processed.
B) If the 824 - Application Advice
acknowledgment designates the entire 820 - Payment Order/Remittance Advice
transaction set is accepted, it does not mean that the payment authorizations
included will be processed. The 824 acknowledgment may still reject any
specific payment authorizations included in the 820 transaction set. If there
are multiple payment authorizations, all may be rejected, all may be accepted,
or some may be accepted and some may be rejected.
C) If the 824 - Application Advice
acknowledgment designates the entire 820 - Payment Order/Remittance Advice
transaction set is accepted, the presence of a confirmation number for a
specific payment authorization will indicate that the authorization will be
processed by the Department. If there is no confirmation number for a specific
payment authorization, it means that the authorization will not be
processed.
