Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend Chapters 151, 321, 322, and 323 of the Tax Code, to allow for amended sales tax reports and for procedures governing reallocations of local sales taxes associated with the amended reports. New Section 151.4065 would allow taxpayers to amend a tax report for a previous reporting period within the statute of limitations, and would require the amendment be signed and include an explanation for the amendment. New Sections 321.510 and 323.510 would provide for notification of affected taxpayers and units of local government of pending reallocations of local sales tax revenues that exceed certain thresholds and for audit review of the pending reallocation upon request of an affected local government. The bill would take effect January 1, 2012.
Methodology
The bill would not have a significant impact on sales tax revenue. The administrative cost estimate reflects the funds that would be necessary to hire 31 additional FTEs starting in fiscal year 2012 to 2016 for personnel salary costs for the Comptroller's Office. Personnel would be required in the Revenue Accounting, Tax Policy, and Audit divisions.
Technology
There would be a one-time technology cost to the Comptroller's Office of $4,600,000 in fiscal year 2012 for programming/project management.
Local Government Impact
Local taxing units could experience a revenue gain or loss depending on the extent of reallocation of local sales tax revenue.
