Iowa tax receipts climb with May surge and pending fiscal year end
The Legislative Services Agency reports May tax receipts up 16.8 percent from May 2012 driven by a 33.1 percent rise in personal income taxes as filers rush before April 30 deadlines. For the year, personal income taxes lead gains while sales and corporate taxes offset declines. One month remains in fiscal 2013 and total state receipts sit 7.7 percent above last year, with future negative effects expected from federal deductibility rules.
