FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
§§ 143.511 Individual Income Tax Filing Deadlines
Officials from the Department of Revenue (DOR) assume this proposal would allow the filing 
deadline for the individual income tax returns to move when the federal government moves the 
deadline.  Currently, Missouri tax returns are due on April 15th each year unless moved by the 
Governor Office.  Sometimes, the federal filing deadline is moved to another day. DOR assumes 
no administrative impact from this change. 
Officials from the Office of Administration – Budget & Planning (B&P) assume this 
provision would allow the annual income tax due date to change from April 15th to the date 
required for federal income tax returns. B&P notes that there are many years where the federal 
annual due date falls after April 15th. B&P further notes that DOR already matches the Missouri 
income tax due date with the federal due date. Therefore, this provision will not impact state 
revenues.
Oversight notes that DOR and B&P both assume the proposal will have no fiscal impact on their 
respective organization or overall state revenues. Oversight does not have any information to the 
contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for this Section.  
§§ 143.512 - Certain Penalties or Interest 
In response to the previous version of the bill, officials from the Office of Administration – 
Budget & Planning (B&P) assumed this proposal would waive any addition to tax, interest, and 
penalties on taxes due because of tax credits being apportioned, if the resulting tax due is paid 
within 60 days. B&P notes that this would only apply to tax credits that are apportioned among 
taxpayers, in the event that redemptions are greater than the amount allowed per statute or 
appropriation.
B&P notes that currently taxpayers are encouraged remit their full tax liability, calculated before 
a tax credit, in the event that their tax credit claim is denied. However, for those taxpayers that 
do not remit the full amount and end up with a tax due notice, interest and penalties are currently 
levied on the overdue amount.
Based on information provided by DOR, this provision could reduce TSR by an unknown, likely 
minimal, amount.
Officials from the Department of Revenue (DOR) assume this proposal would allow a 
taxpayer, who attempts to claim a tax credit, that is denied from a lack of available funds, and 
that denial causes a balance due notice to be generated by DOR, to pay their balance due without  L.R. No. 1327S.02P

paying a penalty or interest for sixty days.  If the balance due is not paid within sixty days, the 
penalty and interest would still be owed.  
DOR notes that tax credits can be denied for various reasons.  Many of the state tax credit 
programs have caps that are first-come first-serve and taxpayers can be denied if their claim is 
filed later than others.  
DOR has two tax credits that have caps and are apportioned credits. These credits allow people 
to apply and then the amount of the credit is adjusted downward should the number of credits 
claimed exceed the cap. Those two credits are the Champion for Children and Food Pantry tax 
credit programs.
DOR notes the Champion for Children tax credit program already grants DOR the authority to 
notify taxpayers of the apportionment of their credit and to adjust the credit downward.  
Additionally, the program also allows DOR to give those taxpayers a sixty-day grace period to 
make an additional payment should their account require it.  This proposal would not impact the 
Champion for Children program.
DOR notes that the Food Pantry program does not allow for such a grace period. At this time, 
DOR would notify the taxpayer of the adjustment and then it is required to assess penalties and 
interest. It appears this proposal attempts to allow DOR to give them a grace period. DOR 
assumes this would have a minimal impact of less than $10,000 annually.
Oversight notes that officials from the DOR and B&P both assume this Section would have a 
minimal impact on the general revenue, if any. 
Oversight is unsure of how many taxpayers previously receive notice of apportionment thus 
additional tax due. However, based on responses from DOR and B&P, Oversight will assume 
that the total amount of interest and penalties owed, less than $10,000, is not material. Therefore, 
Oversight will not show an impact in the fiscal note.
Section 143.121 MAGI Subtractions for Farmers 
In response the similar/identical bill, SB 682 – 2025, officials from the Office of 
Administration – Budget & Planning (B&P) assumed B&P's estimated cost for HB 202 / SB 
138 was based on the definition of beginning farmer. B&P was unable then (and now) to 
separate sales by owner type. Therefore, the estimated costs reflected in the TAFP fiscal notes 
included all potential owners. This proposal will not impact TSR or the calculation under Article 
X, Section 18(e) beyond what was already estimated during the 2023 session.
In response the similar/identical bill, SB 682 – 2025, officials from the Department of Revenue 
(DOR) assumed the language in this bill is clarifying language and will not have any additional 
impact.  L.R. No. 1327S.02P
