After activating your account, you can utilize MyTax Illinois to obtain and print blank ST-556 or ST-556-LSE returns pre-filled with certain information for each of your business locations. You can also contact the Illinois Department of Revenue’s (IDOR) Central Registration Division at 217 785-3707 to request additional blank paper returns for each of your business locations.
Note: Do not photocopy or otherwise duplicate a paper Form ST-556 or ST-556-LSE if you need additional returns. Each return is printed with a unique transaction number that IDOR uses for identification purposes. Filing a photocopied return may cause delays in processing the return and may result in IDOR assessing penalties and interest.
