section;
(2) "Department", the Missouri department of social services;
(3) "Eligible donation", donations received by a provider from a
taxpayer that are used solely to provide direct care services to persons
with developmental disabilities who are residents of this state. Eligible

Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO), or
the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), or is
under contract with the Missouri department of social services or
department of mental health to provide treatment services for such persons,
and that receives eligible donations. Any provider that operates more than
one facility or at more than one location shall be eligible for the tax
credit under this section only for any eligible donation made to facilities
or locations of the provider which are licensed or accredited;
(5) "Taxpayer", any of the following individuals or entities who make
an eligible donation to a provider:

(b) A corporation subject to the annual corporation franchise tax
imposed in chapter 147;
(c) An insurance company paying an annual tax on its gross premium
receipts in this state;
(d) Any other financial institution paying taxes to the state of
Missouri or any political subdivision of this state under chapter 148;
(e) An individual subject to the state income tax imposed in chapter
143;
(f) Any charitable organization which is exempt from federal income
tax and whose Missouri unrelated business taxable income, if any, would be
subject to the state income tax imposed under chapter 143.
3. For all taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2012, any
taxpayer shall be allowed a credit against the taxes otherwise due under
chapter 143, 147, or 148 excluding withholding tax imposed by sections
143.191 to 143.265 in an amount equal to fifty percent of the amount of an
eligible donation, subject to the restrictions in this section. The amount
of the tax credit claimed shall not exceed the amount of the taxpayer's
state income tax liability in the tax year for which the credit is claimed.
Any amount of credit that the taxpayer is prohibited by this section from
claiming in a tax year shall not be refundable, but may be carried forward
to any of the taxpayer's four subsequent taxable years.
4. To claim the credit authorized in this section, a provider may
submit to the department an application for the tax credit authorized by
this section on behalf of taxpayers. The department shall verify that the
provider has submitted the following items accurately and completely:
(1) A valid application in the form and format required by the
department;
(2) A statement attesting to the eligible donation received, which
shall include the name and taxpayer identification number of the individual
making the eligible donation, the amount of the eligible donation, and the
date the eligible donation was received by the provider; and
(3) Payment from the provider equal to the value of the tax credit
for which application is made.
If the provider applying for the tax credit meets all criteria required by
this subsection, the department shall issue a certificate in the
appropriate amount.
5. Tax credits issued under this section may be assigned,
transferred, sold, or otherwise conveyed, and the new owner of the tax
credit shall have the same rights in the credit as the taxpayer. Whenever
a certificate is assigned, transferred, sold, or otherwise conveyed, a
notarized endorsement shall be filed with the department specifying the
name and address of the new owner of the tax credit or the value of the
credit.
6. The department shall promulgate rules to implement the provisions
of this section. Any rule or portion of a rule, as that term is defined in
section 536.010, that is created under the authority delegated in this
section shall become effective only if it complies with and is subject to
all of the provisions of chapter 536 and, if applicable, section 536.028.
This section and chapter 536 are nonseverable and if any of the powers
vested with the general assembly pursuant to chapter 536 to review, to
delay the effective date, or to disapprove and annul a rule are
subsequently held unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority
and any rule proposed or adopted after August 28, 2012, shall be invalid
and void.
