1646 this chapter, the taxpayer reports gain or loss from the disposition of property or claims a

1648 such property or for allowance of the depreciation deduction for the exhaustion, wear, and tear
1649 thereof (including a reasonable allowance for obsolescence) is different for federal income tax

1651 Chapter 14, were applicable to such taxable year, the commission shall (anything in this
1652 chapter to the contrary notwithstanding) allow or make such adjustment to state taxable income

1988 trust income, gain, loss, and deduction shall be determined as follows:
1989 (a) To the amount of items of income, gain, loss, and deduction that enter into the
1990 definition of distributable net income there shall be added or subtracted, as the case may be, the
1991 modifications described in Sections 59-10-202 and [ 59-10-209 ] 59-10-210 to the extent they
1992 relate to items of income, gain, loss, and deduction that also enter into the definition of
1993 distributable net income. No modification shall be made under this section that has the effect
1994 of duplicating an item already reflected in the definition of distributable net income.
1995 (b) The amount determined under Subsection (1)(a) shall be allocated among the estate
1996 or trust and its beneficiaries (including solely for the purpose of this allocation, resident
1997 beneficiaries) in proportion to their respective shares of federal distributable net income. The
1998 amounts so allocated shall have the same character as for federal income tax purposes.
1999 (c) If the estate or trust has no federal distributable net income for the taxable year, the
2000 share of each beneficiary in the net amount determined under Subsection (1)(a) shall be in
2001 proportion to his share of the estate or trust income for such year, under state law or the terms
2002 of the governing instrument, that is required to be distributed currently and any other amounts

2004 the estate or trust.
2005 (2) The commission may by rule establish such other method or methods of
2006 determining the respective shares of the beneficiaries and of the estate or trust in its income
2007 derived from sources in this state, and in the modifications related thereto, as may be
2008 appropriate and equitable. The fiduciary may elect to use any other methods prescribed in this
2009 Subsection (2) only when the allocation of such respective shares under this section would

2010 result in an inequity in the allocation which is substantial both in amount and in relation to the
2011 total amount of the modifications referred to in Subsection (1)(a).
2012 Section 36. Section 59-10-209.1 is enacted to read:

2015 or subtraction required by Section 59-10-202 of a resident or nonresident estate or trust if the
2016 resident or nonresident estate or trust would otherwise:
2017 (a) receive a double tax benefit under this chapter; or

2022 Section 37. Section 59-10-210 is amended to read:
2023 59-10-210. Fiduciary adjustments.
2024 [(1) The fiduciary adjustments are the amounts of the modifications described in

2029 (a) a resident or nonresident estate or trust; or
2030 (b) a resident or nonresident beneficiary of a resident or nonresident estate or trust.
2031 (2) For purposes of Subsection (1), the fiduciary adjustments are the following
2032 amounts:
2033 (a) the additions to and subtractions from adjusted gross income of a resident or

2040 [solely] for the purpose of this allocation[,] a nonresident [beneficiaries)] beneficiary, in the

2041 state fiduciary adjustments, shall be allocated in proportion to their respective shares of federal
2042 distributable net income of the estate or trust.
2043 (b) If the estate or trust described in Subsection (3)(a) has no federal distributable net
2044 income for the taxable year, the share of each beneficiary in the fiduciary adjustments shall be
2045 allocated in proportion to [his] that beneficiary's share of the estate or trust income for [such]
2046 the taxable year[, which] that is, under state law or the governing instrument, required to be
2047 distributed currently plus any other amounts of [such] that income distributed in [such] that
2048 taxable year. [Any]
2049 (c) After making the allocations required by Subsections (3)(a) and (b), any balance of
2050 the fiduciary adjustments shall be allocated to the estate or trust.
2051 [(3) The commission may by rule and upon such terms and conditions as it may
2052 prescribe, authorize the use of such other appropriate and equitable method or methods for
2053 determining attribution and allocation of the fiduciary adjustments. The fiduciary may elect to
2054 use any other methods prescribed in this subsection only when the allocation of such respective
2055 fiduciary adjustments under this section would result in an inequity in the allocation which is
2056 substantial both in amount and in relation to the total amount of the modifications referred to in
2057 Subsection (1).]
2058 [(4) The taxable income of an estate or trust shall be adjusted by the deduction of the
2059 income of that estate or trust to the extent of and for so long as such income is distributed or is
2060 distributable to or otherwise accrues to the benefit of a person who has been declared by a court
2061 of competent jurisdiction to be mentally incompetent. The commission may promulgate rules
2062 necessary to provide for this adjustment.]
2063 (4) (a) The commission shall allow a fiduciary to use a method for determining the
2064 allocation of the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection (2) other than the method
2065 described in Subsection (3) if using the method described in Subsection (3) results in an
2066 inequity:
2067 (i) in allocating the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection (2); and
2068 (ii) if the inequity is substantial:
2069 (A) in amount; and
2070 (B) in relation to the total amount of the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection
2071 (2).

2072 (b) In accordance with Title 63, Chapter 46a, Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act, the
2073 commission may make rules authorizing a fiduciary to use a method for determining the
2074 allocation of the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection (2) other than the method
2075 described in Subsection (3) if using the method described in Subsection (3) results in an
2076 inequity:
2077 (i) in allocating the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection (2); and
2078 (ii) if the inequity is substantial:
2079 (A) in amount; and
2080 (B) in relation to the total amount of the fiduciary adjustments described in Subsection
2081 (2).
2082 Section 38. Section 59-10-529 is amended to read:
2083 59-10-529. Overpayment of tax -- Credits -- Refunds.
2084 (1) In cases where there has been an overpayment of any tax imposed by this chapter,
2085 the amount of overpayment is credited as follows:
2086 (a) against any income tax then due from the taxpayer;
2087 (b) against:
2088 (i) the amount of any judgment against the taxpayer, including one ordering the
2089 payment of a fine or of restitution to a victim under Title 77, Chapter 38a, Crime Victims
2090 Restitution Act, obtained through due process of law by any entity of state government; or
2091 (ii) any child support obligation which is due or past due, as determined by the Office
2092 of Recovery Services in the Department of Human Services and after notice and an opportunity
2093 for an adjudicative proceeding, as provided in Subsection (2); or
2094 (c) as bail, to ensure the appearance of the taxpayer before the appropriate authority to
2095 resolve an outstanding warrant against the taxpayer for which bail is due, if a court of
2096 competent jurisdiction has not approved an alternative form of payment. This bail may be
2097 applied to any fine or forfeiture which is due and related to a warrant which is outstanding on
2098 or after February 16, 1984, and in accordance with Subsections (3) and (4).
2099 (2) (a) Subsection (1)(b)(ii) may be exercised only if the Office of Recovery Services
2100 has sent written notice to the taxpayer's last-known address or the address on file under Section
2101 62A-11-304.4 , stating:
2102 (i) the amount of child support that is due or past due as of the date of the notice or

2103 other specified date;
2104 (ii) that any overpayment shall be applied to reduce the amount of due or past-due child
2105 support specified in the notice; and
2106 (iii) that the taxpayer may contest the amount of past-due child support specified in the
2107 notice by filing a written request for an adjudicative proceeding with the office within 15 days
2108 of the notice being sent.
2109 (b) The Office of Recovery Services shall establish rules to implement this Subsection
2110 (2), including procedures, in accordance with the other provisions of this section, to ensure
2111 prompt reimbursement to the taxpayer of any amount of an overpayment of taxes which was
2112 credited against a child support obligation in error, and to ensure prompt distribution of
2113 properly credited funds to the obligee parent.
2114 (3) Subsection (1)(c) may be exercised only if:
2115 (a) a court has issued a warrant for the arrest of the taxpayer for failure to post bail,
2116 appear, or otherwise satisfy the terms of a citation, summons, or court order; and
2117 (b) a notice of intent to apply the overpayment as bail on the issued warrant has been
2118 sent to the person's current address on file with the commission.
2119 (4) (a) The commission shall deliver the overpayment applied as bail to the court that
2120 issued the warrant of arrest. The clerk of the court is authorized to endorse the check or
2121 commission warrant of payment on behalf of the payees and deposit the monies in the court
2122 treasury.
2123 (b) The court receiving the overpayment applied as bail shall order withdrawal of the
2124 warrant for arrest of the taxpayer if the case is one for which a personal appearance of the
2125 taxpayer is not required and if the dollar amount of the overpayment represents the full dollar
2126 amount of bail. In all other cases, the court receiving the overpayment applied as bail is not
2127 required to order the withdrawal of the warrant of arrest of the taxpayer during the 40-day
2128 period, and the taxpayer may be arrested on the warrant. However, the bail amount shall be
2129 reduced by the amount of tax overpayment received by the court.
2130 (c) If the taxpayer fails to respond to the notice described in Subsection (3), or to
2131 resolve the warrant within 40 days after the notice was sent under that subsection, the
2132 overpayment applied as bail is forfeited and notice of the forfeiture shall be mailed to the
2133 taxpayer at the current address on file with the commission. The court may then issue another

2134 warrant or allow the original warrant to remain in force if:
2135 (i) the taxpayer has not complied with an order of the court;
2136 (ii) the taxpayer has failed to appear and respond to a criminal charge for which a
2137 personal appearance is required; or
2138 (iii) the taxpayer has paid partial but not full bail in a case for which a personal
2139 appearance is not required.
2140 (5) If the alleged violations named in the warrant are later resolved in favor of the
2141 taxpayer, the bail amount shall be remitted to the taxpayer.
2142 (6) Any balance shall be refunded immediately to the taxpayer.
2143 (7) (a) If a refund or credit is due because the amount of tax deducted and withheld
2144 from wages exceeds the actual tax due, a refund or credit may not be made or allowed unless
2145 the taxpayer or his legal representative files with the commission a tax return claiming the
2146 refund or credit:
2147 (i) within three years from the due date of the return, plus the period of any extension
2148 of time for filing the return provided for in Subsection (7)(c); or
2149 (ii) within two years from the date the tax was paid, whichever period is later.
2150 (b) Except as provided in Subsection (7)(d), in other instances where a refund or credit
2151 of tax which has not been deducted and withheld from income is due, a credit or refund may
2152 not be allowed or made after three years from the time the tax was paid, unless, before the
2153 expiration of the period, a claim is filed by the taxpayer or his legal representative.
2154 (c) Beginning on July 1, 1998, the commission shall extend the period for a taxpayer to
2155 file a claim under Subsection (7)(a)(i) if:
2156 (i) the time period for filing a claim under Subsection (7)(a) has not expired; and
2157 (ii) the commission and the taxpayer sign a written agreement:
2158 (A) authorizing the extension; and
2159 (B) providing for the length of the extension.
2160 (d) Notwithstanding Subsection (7)(b), beginning on July 1, 1998, the commission
2161 shall extend the period for a taxpayer to file a claim under Subsection (7)(b) if:
2162 (i) the three-year period under Subsection (7)(b) has not expired; and
2163 (ii) the commission and the taxpayer sign a written agreement:
2164 (A) authorizing the extension; and

2165 (B) providing for the length of the extension.
2166 (8) The fine and bail forfeiture provisions of this section apply to all warrants and fines
2167 issued in cases charging the taxpayer with a felony, a misdemeanor, or an infraction described
2168 in this section which are outstanding on or after February 16, 1984.
2169 (9) If the amount allowable as a credit for tax withheld from the taxpayer exceeds the
2170 tax to which the credit relates, the excess is considered an overpayment.
2171 (10) A claim for credit or refund of an overpayment which is attributable to the
2172 application to the taxpayer of a net operating loss carryback shall be filed within three years
2173 from the time the return was due for the taxable year of the loss.
