2011-12 State Budget and Trailer Bills

Go to Index

On January 8, 2010, the Governor proclaimed a fiscal emergency which triggered a Proposition 58 Special Session to address cash flow problems and to provide a first step to bridge the projected $19.9 billion shortfall.

AB 155* (Charles Calderon-D) Use tax collection: follow-up to AB 28X1

Repeals and reenacts the statutory provisions specifying those retailers with a use tax collection duty (i.e., nexus) as follows: (1) repeals Revenue and Taxation Code (RTC) Section 6203, which specifies those retailers that are considered to be engaged in business in this state and that, as such, are required to collect use tax on sales of tangible personal property (TPP) to California consumers; (2) enacts two new versions of RTC Section 6203, specifically (a) with the exception of minor stylistic changes, the first version is identical to RTC Section 6203, as it read before being amended by AB 28X1 (Blumenfield-D), Chapter 7, Statutes of 2011, First Extraordinary Session (Prior Nexus Law), and (b) the second version is nearly identical to the current version of RTC Section 6203, but modifies the provisions imposing a use tax collection duty on retailers that enter into specified affiliate agreements. Currently, these agreements only give rise to a collection duty if, among other conditions, the remote retailer, within the preceding 12 months, has cumulative sales of TPP to California purchasers in excess of $500,000. Increases this "safe harbor" to $1,000,000 (Expanded Nexus Law);

(3) provides that the Prior Nexus Law shall become operative on this bill's effective date; (4) provides that the Expanded Nexus Law shall become operative (and the Prior Nexus Law inoperative) on either of the following dates: (a) 1/1/13, if federal law is enacted on or before 7/31/12, authorizing the states to require sellers to collect taxes on sales of goods to in-state purchasers without regard to the seller's location, and the state does not, on or before 9/14/12, elect to implement that law or (b) 9/15/12, if such federal law is not enacted; (5) specifies that the provisions of the Expanded Nexus Law are severable; (6) requires the Director of the Department of Finance, on or before 8/15/12, to certify in writing to the Governor, the Senate Rules Committee, the Speaker of the Assembly, and the Board of Equalization whether or not federal law has been enacted on or before 7/31/12, authorizing states to require remote sellers to collect taxes; and (7) provides that for the period between 6/28/11, and this bill's effective date, state law regarding the imposition and collection of use taxes, shall be administered and applied in accordance with state law as it read on 6/27/11. To summarize, this bill temporarily reverts California's use tax nexus law to the way they read prior to being amended by AB 28X1 and the Expanded Nexus Law of this bill goes into effect on either 9/15/12, or 1/1/13, depending on whether or not the federal government acts to allow states to compel remote vendors to collect use taxes.
