Welcome to the Small Business Job Creation Tax Credit Registration Web site.
The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and
well in Illinois and must be nurtured. That's why I proposed
and worked with the Illinois General Assembly to pass the Illinois Small Business
Job Creation Tax Credit. The tax credit gives small business owners an
extra boost to grow their business over the next year. After creating one or
more new, full-time positions that meet the eligibility requirements, small
businesses can register here to receive a $2,500 per job tax credit.
Your success as a small business owner
is vital to Illinois' continued economic recovery - and supporting
entrepreneurship and innovation is one of my top priorities.
Put Illinois to Work businesses: Thank you so much for participating in the Put Illinois to Work program. Changes have been made to the Illinois Small Business Job Creation Tax Credit, that will make your business eligible to receive a tax credit if you hire your worker-trainees into full-time positions before June 30, no matter what size of business you operate. This web site will provide more details of the change. Register your new positions and obtain the credit without ever having to leave your office. Remember that tax credit eligibility begins with the date of hire and registration for the credit may be made at any time up until June 30, 2011.
Sincerely,
Governor Pat Quinn
