What it does

This bill relates to the Iowa child and dependent care tax credit and the early childhood development tax credit available against the individual income tax. IOWA CHILD AND DEPENDENT CARE TAX CREDIT. The Iowa child and dependent care tax credit is a refundable credit calculated as a percentage of the federal child and dependent care tax credit, depending on the Iowa net income of the taxpayer. Currently, there are seven graduated Iowa net income thresholds used to calculate the credit. The bill reduces the number of Iowa net income thresholds from seven thresholds to five thresholds, but increases the Iowa child and dependent care tax credit by increasing the allowable percentage of the federal child and dependent care tax credit that may be used by the taxpayer to calculate the Iowa child and dependent care tax credit.
