HB 2039 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Authorizes a tax credit for certain volunteer drivers

HB 2039 creates a state tax credit for individual volunteer drivers who provide transportation for qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations without expecting payment. It allows eligible taxpayers to claim a credit covering unreimbursed driving costs (gas, diesel, or electric charging) and mileage at the IRS business rate, up to $3,000 per year, adjusted annually for inflation. The credit is non-refundable, can be carried forward for three years, and is subject to a $1 million annual cap across all claimants. The program expires after six years unless renewed by the legislature.
