Income taxes: credit: earned income.

Summary
The Personal Income Tax Law allows various credits against the taxes imposed by that law, including certain credits that are allowed in modified conformity to credits allowed by federal income tax laws. This bill would, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2012, allow a credit computed by multiplying the federal earned income credit amount, as defined, by 15%. This bill would provide that, in those years in which an appropriation is made by the Legislature, the credit would be refundable. This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
