Committee introduces cleanup bill to allow credit‑card statements as proof in tax audits
Summary
Representative Kevin Andrus introduced RS32626 to implement a cleanup from last year’s House Bill 30, ensuring the Idaho State Tax Commission notifies taxpayers that credit‑card statements may be used as proof of transactions in audits. The committee introduced the RS by voice vote.
Representative Kevin Andrus introduced RS32626 to the House Revenue and Taxation Committee on March 7 as a technical cleanup related to last year’s House Bill 30.
Andrus described the draft as a housekeeping measure that “ensures that the tax commission is notifying those tax payers of that option and opportunity,” referring to the ability of taxpayers under audit to use credit‑card statements as proof of transactions. He said the change clarifies existing practice following House Bill 30.
Representative Raybould moved to introduce RS32626; the motion was adopted by voice vote and the RS was introduced. Committee members did not debate or amend the draft during the introduction.
The introduction is a procedural step toward further committee review; the RS does not itself change statute until acted on in later legislative steps.
