This bill creates an income tax refund check-off allowing Alabama taxpayers to donate to the Alabama Veterinary Medical Foundation for the Spay-Neuter Program.
It adds a checkbox on the 2011 and later state income tax forms to designate $1, $5, $10, or more to the Alabama Veterinary Medical Foundation for the Spay-Neuter Program. On joint returns, the spouse may designate an amount as well. The Department of Revenue will total the designated contributions each year and deposit them to the foundation after administrative costs not to exceed 10 percent. The Commissioner of Revenue may create the necessary forms, rules, and regulations to implement the program, and the act becomes effective on the first day of the third month after its passage and approval by the Governor (or upon becoming law).
