What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, an employer may claim tax credits based on the wages paid to new employees and on the costs incurred by the employer for certain training activities. Under current law, if the amount of the credits exceeds the employer's tax liability, the state issues a refund. The credits apply to taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2010, but if any employer is owed a refund, the employer will not receive it until after December 31, 2011. Under this bill, an employer may claim the credits for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2009, and any refunds will be paid after the employer's return is processed.
