INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member John A. Pérez

                        DECEMBER 3, 2012

   An act to amend Sections 12209, 17053.57, and 23657 of the Revenue
and Taxation Code, relating to taxation, to take effect immediately,
tax levy.



	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 32, as amended, John A. Pérez. Insurance taxes: income taxes:
credits: community development financial institution investments.
   Existing laws governing the taxation of insurers, the Personal
Income Tax Law, and the Corporation Tax Law, authorize, until January
1, 2017, a credit in an amount equal to 20% of a qualified
investment, as defined, made into a community development financial
institution, as defined, but not to exceed, in the aggregate amount
under all those laws, $10,000,000 per year. Existing law provides
that a credit shall not be allowed under those laws unless the
California Organized Investment Network certifies that the investment
made by the taxpayer is a qualified investment, as defined.
   The bill would increase the $10,000,000 limitation on the
aggregate amount of qualified investments to $50,000,000. This bill
would prohibit the total amount of investments certified by the
California Organized Investment Network in any calendar year to any
one community development financial institution from exceeding 30% of
the annual aggregate amount of qualified investments, except as
specified. This bill would require that each year 10% of the annual
aggregate amount of qualified investments be reserved for investment
amounts of less than or equal to $200,000, as specified. This bill
would also allow the California Organized Investment Network to
certify investments for the credit until January 1, 2017.
   Existing law authorizes the California Organized Investment
Network, in allocating qualified investment credits, when certain
conditions are met, to prioritize applications for those credits, as
specified.
   This bill would revise those conditions.
   This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 12209 of the Revenue and Taxation Code is
amended to read:
   12209.  (a) For each year beginning on or after January 1, 1999,
and before January 1, 2017, there shall be allowed as a credit
against the amount of tax, as defined in Section 28 of Article XIII
of the California Constitution, an amount equal to 20 percent of the
amount of each qualified investment made by a taxpayer during the
taxable year into a community development financial institution that
is certified by the Department of Insurance, California Organized
Investment Network, or any successor thereof.
   (b) For purposes of determining any tax that may be imposed under
Section 685 of the Insurance Code on a taxpayer not organized under

subdivision (a) shall be treated as a tax paid under Section 12201 or
Section 28 of Article XIII of the California Constitution.
   (c) (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of this part, a credit
shall not be allowed under this section unless the California
Organized Investment Network, or its successor within the Department

total amount of the credit allocated to the taxpayer pursuant to this
section.
