- State Income Taxes -

STOP! Have you studied the federal income tax page yet? If not, go back and do it.

In every state that imposes an income tax:

          State taxing authorities will fail in every way to disclose or propose an interpretation of state law that incorporates federal law by reference, piggy-backs onto the Internal Revenue Code, or requires payment in state income taxes a percentage of what one's federal liability is (as provided by law). State taxing authorities believe that they can simply exclude the value of personal services actually rendered from what is considered as an "amount paid" under Tax Code § 83(a).
          Relevant statutes include Tax Code §§ 83, 212, 1001, 1011, and 1012. These statutes must be realisitically applied, but said taxing authorities either ignore them altogether of they arbitrarily exclude the value of personal services from an "amount paid" without a law that allows for such exclusion from "the value of any money or property paid" in 26 CFR 1.83-3(g). The same is true in their interpretation of 26 CFR 1.1012-1(a) and its "cash or other property." According to the U.S. Dept. of Justice that won arguing against such an arbitrary exclusion four times in the U.S. Supreme Court, this construction or interpretation is impermissible. (See U.S. v. Monsanto, 491 U.S. 600, 607-611 and (syllabus) (1989); United States v. Alvarez-Sanchez, 511 U.S. 350, 357 (1994); U.S. v. Gonzales, 520 U.S. 1, 4-6 (1997); Department of Housing and Urban Renewal v. Rucker, 535 U.S. 125, 130-31 (2002) citing Gonzalez and Monsanto).

Alabama:

Section 40-18-13 Computation of income.
          (a)
Income shall be computed on the basis of the same taxable year and in accordance with the same method of accounting that the taxpayer properly employs for federal income tax purposes. If no such method of accounting has been employed or if the method so employed does not clearly reflect income, computation shall be made upon such basis and in such manner as in the opinion of the Department of Revenue, and consistent with federal income tax treatment, does clearly reflect income. If the taxpayer has no annual accounting period or does not keep proper books of account, the income shall be computed on the basis of the calendar year.
          (b) In the case of a partnership, Alabama S corporation, or personal service corporation electing a taxable year under 26 U.S.C. §444, this section shall be applied without regard to the requirement to make payments under 26 U.S.C. §7519. (Acts 1935, No. 194. p. 256; Code 1940, T. 51, §383; Acts 1990, No. 90-583, p. 988, §6; Act 98-502, p. 1083, § 1.)

Section 40-18-14 Adjusted gross income of individuals.
          The term "gross income" as used herein:
          (1) Includes gains, profits and income derived from salaries, wages, or compensation for personal services of whatever kind, or in whatever form paid, including the salaries, income, fees, and other compensation of state, county, and municipal officers and employees, or from professions, vocations, trades, business, commerce or sales, or dealings in property whether real or personal, growing out of ownership or use of or interest in such property; also from interest, royalties, rents, dividends, securities, or transactions of any business carried on for gain or profit and the income derived from any source whatever, including any income not exempted under this chapter and against which income there is no provision for a tax. The term "gross income" as used herein also includes alimony and separate maintenance payments to the extent they are includable in gross income for federal income tax purposes under 26 U.S.C. § 71 (relating to alimony and separate maintenance payments). The term "gross income" as used herein also includes any amount included in gross income under 26 U.S.C. § 83 at the time it is so included under 26 U.S.C. § 83.
          (2) For purposes of this chapter, the reductions in tax attributes required by 26 U.S.C. § 108 shall be applied only to the net operating losses determined under this chapter and the basis of depreciable property. The basis reductions of depreciable property shall not exceed the basis reductions for federal income tax purposes. All other tax attribute reductions required by 26 U.S.C. § 108 shall not be recognized. (Acts 1943, No. 439, p. 404; Acts 1965, 1st Ex. Sess., No. 249, p. 364; Acts 1975, No. 1086, p. 2153, §§1, 2; Acts 1982, No. 82-465, p. 759, §2; Acts 1982, 1st Ex. Sess., No. 82-667, p. 85, §2; Acts 1984, 1st Ex. Sess., No. 84-806, p. 230; Acts 1985, No. 85-515, §9; Acts 1985, 2nd Ex. Sess., No. 85-940, p. 252, §1; Acts 1987, No. 87-622, p. 1107; Acts 1990, No. 90-583, p. 988, §7; Act 98-502, p. 1083, §1; Act 2012-427, p. 1163, §1.)

COMMENT: In the first instance, this legislation clearly assigns the federal regime of taxing statutes, which would include Tax Code §§ 83, 212, 1001, 1011, and 1012, as appropriate on state level. HOWEVER, the legislation then provides the basis upon which state taxing authorities can rest their inclusion in gross income all compensation for services; this is done out of ignorance. The saving grace of this broad statement is the express requirement that the gains, profits, and income be "derived from" the compensation instead of "in the form of" the compensation; what "comes from" compensation? What you see is the adoption, generally, of the federal Internal Revenue Code by those ignorant of its provisions, and then the restatement of that Code's broad definition of "gross income" as all income from whatever source derived (26 USC § 61(a)), but that provisions begins with "Except as otherwise provided," whereas this one does not.
          Any interpretation of the 2nd provision that seeks to tax as gross income the value of personal services clearly comes into direct conflict with the 1st provision which prescribes the "proper" employment of the federal Internal Revenue Code in one's accounting method. The obvious intent of this legislation is to adopt the federal Internal Revenue Code as the foundation for the calculation of gross income, so any confusion created by the 2nd provision must be dismissed as a creation of ignorance of the scope of the Internal Revenue Code.

*"You deprived me of the provisions of § 40-18-13 when you included the value of my personal services in gross income. How did Tax Code §§ 83, 212, 1001, 1011, and 1012 operate in your calculations?"

"Mission and Statement of Principles of Tax Administration:
          Mission of the Franchise Tax Board.- Our mission is to provide the services and information to help taxpayers file accurate and timely tax returns and pay the proper amount owed. To accomplish this mission, we develop knowledgeable and engaged employees, administer and enforce the law with fairness and integrity, and responsibly manage the resources allocated to us. (excerpt from the FTB Strategic Plan 2012-2016)."

"Statement of Principles of Tax Administration:
          The Members of the Franchise Tax Board adopted these Principles of Tax Administration.- The primary function of the Franchise Tax Board is to administer the Revenue and Taxation Code. Tax policy for raising revenue is determined by elected officials.
          It is our duty to correctly apply the laws enacted by the Legislature; to determine the reasonable meaning of various Code provisions, and to perform in a fair and impartial manner.
          Interpretation of the Code is the heart of administration. It is the responsibility of each person in the Franchise Tax Board, charged with the duty of interpreting the law, to try to find the true meaning of the statutory provision and not to adopt a strained construction in the belief that he or she is "protecting the revenue." The revenue is properly protected only when the true meaning of the statute is ascertained and applied.
          We must also apply the law in a reasonable and practical manner. Issues are raised when they have merit, and are never raised arbitrarily or for trading purposes. Employees are encouraged to raise meritorious issues. We also exercise care not to raise an issue or to ask a court to adopt a position inconsistent with an established Franchise Tax Board position.
          We believe in treating our taxpayers with courtesy and considerateness. As such, administration should be reasonable, vigorous, and timely. It should never try to overreach, and should be reasonable within the bounds of law and sound administration. It should, however, be vigorous in requiring compliance with law and it should be relentless in its attack on unreal tax devices and fraud. (excerpt from the FTB Strategic Plan 2012-2016)."

          WHEN the FTB fails in every way to disclose or propose an interpretation of CA Code §§ 17081, 17201, and 18031, and therefore Tax Code §§ 83, 212, 1001, 1011, and 1012 adopted thereby, this Mission Statement from the FTB will be exposed as a fiction, agency tripe, window dressing; grandiose prevarication. The FTB (and the IRS) looks at 26 CFR 1.83-3(g) and arbitrarily excludes the value of personal services from an "amount paid" without a law that allows for such exclusion from "the value of any money or property paid." The same is true in the FTB's and IRS' interpretation of 26 CFR 1.1012-1(a) and its "cash or other property." According to the U.S. Dept. of Justice that won arguing against such an arbitrary exclusion four times in the U.S. Supreme Court, this construction or interpretation is impermissible. (See U.S. v. Monsanto, 491 U.S. 600, 607-611 and (syllabus) (1989); United States v. Alvarez-Sanchez, 511 U.S. 350, 357 (1994); U.S. v. Gonzales, 520 U.S. 1, 4-6 (1997); Department of Housing and Urban Renewal v.
