Tax administration: tax clearance certificates.
Summary
Existing law requires, for specified estates, a tax clearance certificate issued by the Franchise Tax Board certifying that all taxes have been paid or secured as required by law, before a probate court allows the final account of the fiduciary. Existing law prohibits a deduction from being allowed for amounts attributable and taxable to nonresident beneficiaries if the fiduciary fails to obtain a tax clearance certificate, as specified. This bill would eliminate the tax clearance certificate requirement related to the final account of the fiduciary and related provisions. This bill would also eliminate the tax clearance certificate requirement related to that deduction for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014.
