From my understanding or from what Annette said, this tax is only charged to those who live in the state of Illinois. I flew into a small fly-in and purchased one gallon of fuel. I had to enter an N number to purchase this fuel. These records are then given to the state. The State then goes over every transaction and make sure all taxes have been paid by all N numbers entered. Annette explained this to me on how she came to have my info in her hand. She said I did not pay my 20 dollar use tax for this airplane. I believe I kept these e-mails. I will post some of these e-mails if I did indeed safe them.
