Bill Summary

AN ACT To amend Chapter 7 of Title 48 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to income taxes, so as to change certain definitions regarding such taxes; to provide for related matters; to provide for an effective date; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the definition of "corporation" in Georgia's income tax code by expanding the existing definition to explicitly include professional associations organized under Chapter 10 of Title 14 and insurance companies, in addition to other associations. The change broadens the scope of entities considered corporations for tax purposes, potentially affecting how these types of organizations are taxed. The bill will become effective upon receiving the Governor's approval or becoming law without explicit approval, and it automatically repeals any conflicting laws. While the modification may seem technical, it provides greater clarity in the tax code by specifically listing different types of business entities that fall under the corporate classification, which could have implications for tax reporting and compliance for professional associations and insurance companies.
