AB 934 Wisconsin Assembly · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: eliminating the definition of relative for purposes of the lottery; the definition of taxable property in a tax incremental district; the order of certain withholdings and deposits in income tax computations; and eliminating an adjustment made to the economic development surcharge for certain businesses (suggested as remedial legislation by the Department of Revenue).

AB 934 repeals outdated tax code provisions and clarifies definitions in Wisconsin's tax law. It eliminates the "relative" definition for lottery eligibility, adjusts the definition of taxable property in tax incremental districts, and removes a specific surcharge adjustment for certain businesses. The bill directly affects businesses subject to the economic development surcharge and taxpayers using lottery-related tax credits. These changes are technical amendments to correct inconsistencies in current tax code provisions, as requested by the Department of Revenue.
