    PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12C-1.013, F.A.C., is to incorporate statutory changes made to Florida Corporate Income Tax by Section 2, Chapter 2019-168, L.O.F., so that all amounts included in federal taxable income under s. 951A, I.R.C., can be subtracted from state taxable income.

    The proposed repeal of Rule 12C-1.0192, F.A.C., is to remove an expired tax credit and conform with the statutory repeal of the law implemented

    The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12C-1.051, F.A.C., is to incorporate statutory changes into seven forms used to administer Florida Corporate Income Tax, including the new subtraction from taxable income, and removing obsolete provisions.

    SUMMARY: Amendments to Rule 12C-1.013, F.A.C., include an additional amount of federal taxable income that can be subtracted from state taxable income.

    Rule 12C-1.0192, F.A.C., is being repealed to conform to the statutory repeal of a program that has expired.

    Updates and revisions to forms incorporated by reference in Rule 12C-1.051, F.A.C., are Form F-1120 (Florida Corporate Income/Franchise Tax Return); Form F-1120A (Florida Corporate Short Form Income Tax Return); Form F-1120N (Instructions for Corporate Income/Franchise Tax Return for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2019); Form F-1120XN (Instructions for Preparing Form F-1120X Amended Florida Corporate Income/Franchise Tax Return); and Form F-1193T (Notice of Intent to Transfer a Florida Tax Credit Corporate Income Tax). Section 220.1105, F.S., requires the Department of Revenue to calculate, by October 1, 2019, the corporate income tax rate to be imposed for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2019, but before January 1, 2022. The Department has performed the calculation and has included the new tax rate of 4.458% and has included this rate on Form F-1120 and Form F-1120A.

    SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:

    The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

    The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: 1) no requirement for the Statement of Economic Regulatory Costs (SERC) was triggered under Section 120.541(1), F.S.; and 2) based on past experiences regarding rules of this nature, the adverse impact or regulatory cost, if any, do not exceed nor would exceed any one of the economic analysis criteria in a SERC, as set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S.

    Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
