House committee clears bill to require tax commission notice allowing credit-card statements in audits
Summary
The House Revenue and Tax Committee voted to send House Bill 381 to the House floor with a due-pass recommendation after Representative Kevin Andrus said the bill would require the Idaho State Tax Commission to notify taxpayers that credit-card statements may be used to document payments and deductions in audits.
House Revenue and Tax Committee Chairman and members voted Thursday to send House Bill 381 to the House floor with a due-pass recommendation after a brief presentation by the bill’s sponsor.
Representative Kevin Andrus, R‑District 35, told the committee the bill “deals with audits” and would ensure the Idaho State Tax Commission notifies taxpayers that credit‑card statements may be accepted as recognition of payments and deductions during audits. “This just ensures that the tax commission notifies the taxpayer that that is allowed and that to make sure everybody's on board, so I would ask for your support,” Andrus said.
The committee moved the bill forward without debate. Representative Shurts moved adoption of the due‑pass recommendation; the chair called the voice vote and the motion passed. The committee record shows the bill will go to the House floor with Representative Andrus as floor sponsor.
No fiscal note or estimated revenue effect was discussed during the presentation; the committee did not take further testimony or propose amendments.
