LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 1122, Corbett. Taxation: federal conformity.
Under the Personal Income Tax Law and the Bank and Corporation Tax Law, various provisions of the federal Internal Revenue Code, as enacted as of a specified date, are referenced in various sections of the Revenue and Taxation Code. Those laws provide that for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 1998, the specified date of those referenced Internal Revenue Code sections is January 1, 1998, unless otherwise specifically provided.
Existing law requires, for any introduced bill that proposes changes in any of those dates, that the Franchise Tax Board prepare a complete analysis of the bill that describes all changes to state law that will automatically occur by reference to federal law as of the changed date. It further requires the Franchise Tax Board to immediately update and supplement that analysis upon any amendment to the bill, and requires that analysis to be made available to the public and to be submitted to the Legislature for publication in the daily journal of each house of the Legislature.
This bill would change the specified date of those referenced Internal Revenue Code sections to January 1, 2001, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, and thereby would make numerous substantive changes to both the Personal Income Tax Law and the Bank and Corporation Tax Law with respect to those areas of preexisting conformity that are subject to changes under federal laws enacted after January 1, 1998, and that have not been, or are not being, excepted or modified.
This bill would make certain other changes in federal income tax laws applicable, with specified exceptions and modifications, and make specified supplemental, technical, or clarifying changes, for purposes of the Personal Income Tax Law or the Bank and Corporation Tax Law, or both, with respect to, among other things, credits that may reduce certain taxes below the tentative minimum tax, the credit for research and development expenses, adjustments in computing alternative minimum taxable income, the exclusion of extraterritorial income, annuities and certain proceeds of life insurance contracts, the Ricky Ray Hemophilia Relief Fund Act of 1998, the denial of deduction for club dues, the mark to market accounting method, the inapplicability of excise tax on premiums paid, certain amounts paid in connection with insurance contracts, specified federal acts, the installment method of accounting, qualified state tuition programs, the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996, determinations relating to deferred compensation, taxation of estates and trusts, small business stock, failure by an individual to pay estimated income tax, underpayment of estimated tax, underpayments of installments, elimination of interest on overlapping periods of tax overpayments and underpayments, mining exploration and development costs, tax-exempt interest, “S corporations,” certain publicly traded partnerships treated as corporations, the deduction for a qualified computer contribution, secured indebtedness, tax on passive investment income, securities futures contracts, and the sale or exchange of livestock. This bill would specify various dates on which specified provisions apply, make findings and declarations that certain provisions are declaratory of existing law, and specify the intent and operation in the application of provisions conforming to various federal acts.
This bill would provide that it would only become operative if this bill and SB 657 are both chaptered.
This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
