No Taxes on Internet Sales in Illinois

Seal of Illinois. Center image extracted from ...

Many people are confused about their taxes and regularly seek out tax help in their areas. Of course, it doesn’t help that tax laws are regularly changing, or at least attempting to change, as is the case with a proposed Illinois state law that was recently brought before the Illinois Supreme Court. The law made it so that some internet sales were taxed, and those bringing the law before the court argued that the “Amazon tax” affixed to purchases from the online retail giant, violated discriminatory tax regulations.

The Supreme Court threw out the law based on a 6 to 1 ruling, marking the first time in history that a court has made null an internet sales tax law. While some are happy about the recent decision, small retailers in the state are not. They are asking Congress to regulate taxes on web sales in an effort to help save their businesses.

With so many tax changes and questions up in the air, don’t get confused! You can seek expert tax help in Naperville by going to Susan S. Lewis, Ltd.
