Individual income tax return required to include the option to make an anatomical gift.
This bill requires Minnesota individual income tax returns to include an option for taxpayers and their spouses to make an anatomical gift, such as donating organs for transplantation. By checking this box on the tax form, a person's decision to donate becomes legally effective immediately, and the state will share their contact details with the designated organ procurement organization. The legislation also mandates that the Department of Revenue's website provide information about organ donation laws and benefits, while ensuring that any personal data collected remains private. These changes are designed to simplify the process of registering as an organ donor and will take effect for tax years beginning after December 31, 2025.
