2 ENROLLED, An Act,
3	Relating to taxation; to provide that the deduction
4 allowed to individual taxpayers for federal income tax paid or
5 accrued within the tax year ending December 31, 2021 will be
6 determined without considering the reduction in federal tax
7 attributable to any additional federal child tax credit,
8 federal earned income tax credit, or federal child and
9 dependent care tax credit received pursuant to the American
10 Rescue Plan Act of 2021, in order to allow individuals to
11 receive the amount of the enhanced federal credits rather than
12 pay state income tax on a portion of the amounts received; to
13 authorize the Department of Revenue to adopt rules.
14 BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA:
15	Section 1. For the tax year ending on December 31,
16 2021, for purposes of determining an individual taxpayer's
17 federal income tax deduction pursuant to Chapter 18 of Title
18 40, Code of Alabama 1975, the federal income tax deduction
19 shall be calculated without consideration of the reductions in
20 federal tax provided in Sections 9611, 9612, 9621, 9622, 9623,
21 9624, 9625, 9626, and 9631 of the American Rescue Plan Act of
22 2021, and instead, for any federal income tax reductions
23 attributable to the federal child tax credit, the earned
24 income tax credit, and the federal child and dependent care
25 tax credits, the federal income tax deduction shall be
Page 1 HB231
1 calculated as if the individual paid the federal income tax
2 that would otherwise have been paid under the provisions of
3 the Internal Revenue Code in effect on December 31, 2020.
4	Section 2. Sections 40-16-3.1 and 40-18-39.2 are
5 added to the Code of Alabama 1975, to read as follows:

11 file the Alabama financial institution excise tax return as
12 required by Section 40-16-3.
13	(2) For tax years beginning on or after January 1,
14 2020, but prior to January 1, 2021, the department may allow a

17 return, including applicable extensions, to file the Alabama
18 financial institution excise tax return, upon request by the
19 taxpayer and approval by the department.
20	(b) The extension provided in this section shall not
