Surprise for some Iowans as sales tax credit boosts refunds
Iowa refunds included a sales tax credit up to 12 per person to offset the 2 to 3 percent sales tax rise. Director William Forst explained the policy to credit all eligible returns, with adjustments for those who did not claim the credit. The department moved quickly to process nearly one million returns by June 15, issuing warrants and later auditing for errors while delaying some estimated second quarter filings.
