General Fund Surplus Rebates To Taxpayers

The bill requires the executive director to rebate $1,846,400,000 from the general fund to qualified individuals through income tax returns for the 2022 income tax year, which rebate amount is an estimate of the general fund surplus for the state fiscal year 2021-22. The rebates will be made to qualified individuals in the same manner as if the general fund surplus was excess state revenues under the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights being refunded through the 6-tiered sales tax refund mechanism.
