SB 1020 - This act allows taxpayers who have been allowed a
federal earned income tax credit to claim a portion of that
credit against their state income tax due. The allowable state
credit is graduated, with an initial credit allowed set at ten
percent of the federal credit allowed in the tax year beginning
January 1, 2003. The maximum allowed credit increases by five
percent of the federal credit per year to a maximum of twenty
percent in the tax year beginning January 1, 2005. If the credit
exceeds the amount due, the credit may be carried forward
indefinitely or claimed as a refund.
