  1  5 TUITION TAX CREDIT.
  1  6    1.  The tax imposed under this division, less the
  1  7 credits allowed under sections 422.12 and 422.12B,
  1  8 shall be reduced by an additional tuition tax credit
  1  9 equal to fifty percent of the first one thousand
  1 10 dollars which the taxpayer has paid to others for each
  1 11 dependent in grades kindergarten through twelve, for
  1 12 tuition and textbooks of each dependent in attending
  1 13 an elementary or secondary school situated in Iowa,
  1 14 which school is accredited or approved under section
  1 15 256.11, which is not operated for profit, and which
  1 16 adheres to the provisions of the federal Civil Rights
  1 17 Act of 1964 and chapter 216.  As used in this
  1 18 subsection, "textbooks" and "tuition" mean the same as
  1 19 those terms are defined in section 422.12, subsection
  1 20 2.
  1 21    The additional tuition tax credit provided in this
  1 22 section is only available to taxpayers with net
  1 23 incomes of less than forty thousand dollars.  The tax
  1 24 credit is in addition to the tuition credit provided
  1 25 in section 422.12, subsection 2, which credit shall be
  1 26 deducted prior to the additional tuition tax credit
  1 27 under this section.
  1 28    2.  Any credit in excess of the tax liability shall
  1 29 be refunded.  In lieu of claiming a refund, a taxpayer
  1 30 may elect to have the overpayment shown on the
  1 31 taxpayer's final, completed return credited to the tax
  1 32 liability for the following taxable year.
  1 33    3.  Married taxpayers electing to file separate
  1 34 returns or to file separately on a combined return
  1 35 form must determine the additional tuition tax credit
  1 36 under subsection 1 based upon their combined net
  1 37 income and allocate the total credit amount to each
  1 38 spouse in the proportion that each spouse's respective
  1 39 net income bears to the total combined net income.
  1 40    Sec. 2.  APPLICABILITY DATE.  This Act applies to
  1 41 tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2005."
