AI Summary

  • Changes the applicable percentage for New Markets tax credits from zero percent for the first two credit allowance dates to five percent for each of the first three credit allowance dates, and from seven percent to six percent for the fourth credit allowance date and following dates.

  • Removes the exclusion that prevented investments in low-income community businesses deriving 15% or more of annual revenue from renting or selling real estate, allowing such investments to now qualify for the tax credit.

  • Eliminates the "adjusted purchase price" calculation requirement, instead basing the credit directly on qualified low-income community investments made by the community development entity.

  • Permits investors to identify qualifying equity investments from any qualified community development entity, rather than limiting selections to specific entities.

  • Clarifies that the maximum allowable New Markets tax credit for each investor is $1 million and caps total state qualified low-income community investments at $2,564,103.
