Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 940 -- Missouri Individual Income Flat Tax Act

Sponsor:  Robb

This bill establishes the Missouri Individual Income Flat Tax Act
for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2006.  A flat tax
is created on an individual's income at a rate of 4% and replaces
most additions and subtractions from the Missouri adjusted gross
income with an adjustment for tax-free bond interest over $500
and a larger personal deduction of $10,000 per taxpayer; $20,000
for a combined return; $15,000 for a head of household; and
$20,000 for a surviving spouse.  A resident can also deduct
$5,000 for each dependent.

The bill eliminates tax credits for individuals and provides both
nonresident and partnership allocation and computation of
Missouri individual income tax liability.
