HB 4804

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Estate and Generation-Skipping Transfer Tax Act. Provides that the State Treasurer may waive penalties imposed against a county treasurer for late payment under the Act on a case-by-case basis if the State Treasurer finds that imposing penalties would be unreasonable or unnecessarily burdensome because the delay in payment was due to an incident caused by the operation of an extraordinary force, including, but not limited to, the occurrence of a natural disaster, that cannot be foreseen, that cannot be avoided by the exercise of due care, and for which no person can be held liable. Effective immediately.
