Summary

The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law, in modified conformity with federal income tax law, generally defines "gross income" as income from whatever source derived, except as specifically excluded, and provides various exclusions from gross income. This bill, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2025, and before January 1, 2035, would provide an exclusion from gross income for amounts received as income, not to exceed $300,000 per taxable year, by a qualified taxpayer whose real property, residence, or business burned or was deemed uninhabitable due to a disaster, as defined, during the taxable year in which the disaster occurred and the following taxable year. Existing law requires any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure to contain, among other things, specific goals that the tax expenditure will achieve, detailed performance indicators, and data collection requirements. This bill would include additional information required for any bill authorizing a new tax expenditure. This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
