  1  1    Section 1.  NEW SECTION.  422.11F  SMALL BUSINESS GUARANTY
  1  2 FEE TAX CREDIT.
  1  3    The taxes imposed under this division, less the credits
  1  4 allowed under sections 422.12 and 422.12B, shall be reduced by
  1  5 a small business guaranty fee tax credit.  The amount of the
  1  6 credit is equal to any amount paid to the United States small
  1  7 business administration as a guaranty fee in order to obtain
  1  8 small business administration guaranteed financing.  The
  1  9 credit shall be applicable to the tax year in which the
  1 10 guaranty fee was paid and shall be claimed only by the small
  1 11 business operating within the state which is the primary
  1 12 obligor in the financing transaction and which actually paid
  1 13 the guaranty fee.  Any credit in excess of the tax liability
  1 14 is nonrefundable but may be carried forward for up to four tax
  1 15 years or until depleted.  If the small business elects to take
  1 16 the tax credit under this section, the small business shall
  1 17 not deduct for Iowa tax purposes any amount of the small
  1 18 business administration guaranty fee deducted for federal
  1 19 income tax purposes.
  1 20    For purposes of this section, an individual may claim the
  1 21 small business guaranty fee tax credit allowed a partnership,
  1 22 S corporation, limited liability company, estate, or trust
  1 23 electing to have the income taxed directly to the individual.
  1 24 The amount claimed by the individual shall be based upon the
  1 25 pro rata share of the individual's earnings of the
  1 26 partnership, S corporation, limited liability company, estate,
  1 27 or trust.
  1 28    For purposes of this section, "small business" means a
  1 29 corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship, limited
  1 30 liability company, or other business entity qualifying as
  1 31 "small" under the standards contained in 13 C.F.R., pt. 121.

  2  1 The amount of the credit is equal to any amount paid to the
  2  2 United States small business administration as a guaranty fee
  2  3 in order to obtain small business administration guaranteed
  2  4 financing.  The credit shall be applicable to the tax year in
  2  5 which the guaranty fee was paid and shall be claimed only by
  2  6 the small business operating within the state which is the
  2  7 primary obligor in the financing transaction and which
  2  8 actually paid the guaranty fee.  Any credit in excess of the
  2  9 tax liability is nonrefundable but may be carried forward for
  2 10 up to four tax years or until depleted.  If the small business
  2 11 elects to take the small business guaranty fee tax credit, the
  2 12 small business shall not deduct for Iowa tax purposes any
  2 13 amount of the small business administration guaranty fee
  2 14 deducted for federal income tax purposes.
  2 15    For purposes of this subsection, "small business" means a
  2 16 corporation, partnership, sole proprietorship, limited
  2 17 liability company, or other business entity qualifying as
  2 18 "small" under the standards contained in 13 C.F.R., pt. 121.
  2 19    Sec. 3.  RETROACTIVE APPLICABILITY DATE.  This Act applies
  2 20 retroactively to January 1, 2002, for tax years beginning on
  2 21 or after that date.  
  2 22                           EXPLANATION
  2 23    This bill provides a small business guaranty fee tax credit
