What’s in it

AI summary Currently, businesses and tax preparers in Iowa must file certain tax returns electronically and cannot use broken software as an excuse to file on paper. This resolution cancels the rule that prevents people from using software problems as a reason to skip electronic filing. This change affects corporations, certain trusts, and other business entities that report income in Iowa.1

Read the official explanation

This joint resolution nullifies administrative rules of the department of revenue relating to electronic filing procedures for certain tax returns. The rules generally require that tax returns filed by Iowa corporate and fiduciary income and franchise taxpayers and pass-through entities subject to Iowa income reporting requirements, which meet certain criteria, be filed in an electronic format approved by the department. The resolution nullifies a portion of the rules that specifies a deficiency in return preparation software purchased or licensed by a taxpayer or return preparer shall generally not be considered good cause for granting an exception to the electronic filing requirement. The joint resolution takes effect upon enactment.
