15E.183 Tax credits.

1. For tax years beginning on or after January 1, 1997, there shall be allowed a tax credit against the taxes imposed in chapter 422, divisions II and III, for net losses incurred by the Iowa capital investment board. The aggregate amount of tax credits issued under this section shall not exceed thirty million dollars. An individual may claim the credit of a partnership, limited liability company, subchapter S corporation, estate, or trust electing to have the income taxed directly to the individual. The amount claimed by the individual shall be based upon the pro rata share of the individual's earnings from the partnership, limited liability company, subchapter S corporation, estate, or trust. A taxpayer shall not claim tax credits under this section which exceed the total amount invested by the taxpayer in the Iowa capital investment board. Any tax credit in excess of the taxpayer's liability for the tax year may be credited to the tax liability for the following three years or until depleted, whichever is earlier. A tax credit shall not be carried back to the tax year prior to the tax year in which the termination or insolvency of the Iowa capital investment board occurs. A tax credit shall not be refunded.

a. The Iowa capital investment board shall furnish to each person making an investment in the Iowa capital investment board during the preceding year a written statement showing the name of the investor, taxpayer identification number, the total amount of investment in the Iowa capital investment board made by such person, and such other information as the director of revenue and finance may require. The statement shall be attached to the income tax return of such person in order to qualify for the tax credit.

b. The taxpayer making the original investment in the Iowa capital investment board may, during the year of the termination or insolvency of the Iowa capital investment board or during the three years following such termination or insolvency, transfer any unused tax credit to another taxpayer who may use the tax credit against the taxes imposed under chapter 422, divisions II and III, for any tax year the original investor could have claimed the tax credit.

2. The department of revenue and finance shall, in consultation with the Iowa capital transition board, develop a system for the registration, issuance, transfer, or redemption of tax credits issued by the state under this section. The department* shall also, in consultation with the Iowa capital transition board, adopt any other policies, procedures, or rules pursuant to chapter 17A necessary for the administration of tax credits issued by the state under this section.
