Income taxes: credits: contributions to education funds.
Summary
The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law allow various credits against the taxes imposed by those laws. This bill, under both laws, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and before January 1, 2016, would allow a credit equal to a certain percentage of a contribution to the Higher Education Investment Tax Credit Program Special Fund, established by this bill, for the General Fund and specified education purposes, as provided. This bill would specify that the aggregate amount of credit that may be allocated under both laws shall not exceed $100,000,000 for each calendar year, and would require the California Educational Facilities Authority to perform certain duties with regard to allocating and certifying the tax credits allowed under these provisions. This bill would become operative only if SB 1466 of the 2011–12 Regular Session is enacted and takes effect on or before January 1, 2013.
