SUMMARY BY TAX ANALYSTS

Indiana H.B. 1436, enacted as Public Law 199, clarifies that for tax year 2020, the state will decouple from the Internal Revenue Code for purposes of calculating adjusted gross income in regards to unemployment compensation, therefore requiring affected taxpayers to add back any amount of unemployment compensation that was excluded from their federal AGI to their state AGI.

(e) Subject to the limitations contained in subsection (g), an Indiana net operating loss carryover shall be available as a deduction from the taxpayer's adjusted gross income derived from sources within Indiana (as defined in section 2 of this chapter) in the carryover year provided in subsection (f), but not in excess of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income (as defined in IC 6-3-1-3.5) in the carryover year determined without regard to the deduction allowable under this section.

(2) The Indiana net operating loss has been carried over to each of the carryover years provided by subsection (f).

(h) An Indiana net operating loss deduction determined under this section shall be allowed notwithstanding the fact that in the year the taxpayer incurred the net operating loss the taxpayer was not subject to the tax imposed under section 1 of this chapter because the taxpayer was:

(2) an insurance company subject to tax under Section 831 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(i) In the case of a life insurance company, this section shall be applied by substituting life insurance company taxable income (as defined in Section 801 the Internal Revenue Code) in place of references to taxable income (as defined in Section 63 of the Internal Revenue Code).

(2) State specific health care decisions by the declarant.

(3) State the declarant's preferences or desires regarding the provision, continuation, termination, or refusal of life prolonging procedures, palliative care, comfort care, or assistance with activities of daily living.

(4) Specifically disqualify one (1) or more named individuals from:

(A) being appointed as a health care representative for the declarant;

(B) acting as a proxy for the declarant under section 42 of this chapter; or

(b) An advance directive under this section must be signed by or for the declarant using one (1) of the following methods:

(1) Signed by the declarant in the presence of two (2) adult witnesses or in the presence of a notarial officer.

(2) Signing of the declarant's name by another adult individual at the specific direction of the declarant, in the declarant's presence, and in the presence of the two (2) adult witnesses or a notarial officer. However, an individual who signs the declarant's name on the advance directive may not be a witness, the notarial officer, or a health care representative designated in the advance directive.

(c) An advance directive signed under this section must be witnessed or acknowledged in one (1) of the following ways:

(1) Signed in the declarant's direct physical presence by two (2) adult witnesses, at least one (1) of whom may not be the spouse or other relative of the declarant.

(2) Signed or acknowledged by the declarant in the presence of a notarial officer, who completes and signs a notarial certificate under IC 33-42-9-12 and makes it a part of the advance directive.

If the advance directive complies with either subdivision (1) or (2), but contains additional witness signatures or a notarial certificate that is not needed, the advance directive is still validly witnessed and acknowledged. A remote online notarization or electronic notarization of an advance directive that complies with IC 33-42-17 complies with subdivision (2).

(d) A competent declarant and the witnesses or a notarial officer may complete and sign an advance directive in two (2) or more counterparts in tangible paper form, with the declarant's signature placed on one (1) original counterpart and with the signatures of the witnesses, if any, or the notarial officer's signature and certificate on one (1) or more different counterparts in tangible paper form, so long as the declarant and the witnesses or notarial officer comply with the presence requirement as described in section 19 of this chapter, and so long as the text of the advance directive states that it is being signed in separate paper counterparts. If an advance directive is signed in counterparts under this subsection:

(1) the declarant;

(2) a health care representative who is designated in the advance directive;

(3) a person who supervised the signing of the advance directive in that person's presence; or

The person who combines the separately signed counterparts into a single composite document must do so not later than ten (10) business days after the person receives all of the separately signed paper counterparts. Any scanned copy, photocopy, or other accurate copy of the composite document that contains the complete text of the advance directive and all signatures will be treated as validly signed under this section. The person who creates the signed composite document under this subsection may include information about compliance within this subsection in an optional affidavit that is signed under section 41 of this chapter.

(g) The text of the advance directive signed under subsection (e) must state that the declarant and the witnesses used telephonic interaction throughout the signing process to satisfy the presence requirement.

(h) An advance directive signed under subsection (e) is presumed to be valid if it recites that the declarant and the witnesses signed the advance directive in compliance with Indiana law.

(i) A health care provider or other person who disputes the validity of an advance directive signed under subsection (e) has the burden of proving the invalidity of the advance directive or noncompliance with subsection (e) by a reasonable preponderance of the evidence.

(j) If a declarant resides in or is located in a jurisdiction other than Indiana at the time when the declarant signs a writing that communicates the information described in subsection (a), the writing must be treated as a validly signed advance directive under this chapter if the declarant was not incapacitated at the time of signing and if the writing was:

(1) signed and witnessed or acknowledged in a manner that complies with subsections (b) and (c); or

(2) signed in a manner that complies with the applicable law of the jurisdiction in which the declarant was residing or was physically located at the time of signing.

SECTION 10. [EFFECTIVE UPON PASSAGE] (a) Notwithstanding the effective date, if a subdivision in IC 6-3-1-3.5 or clause in IC 6-5.5-1-2, as added by this act, specifies that it is effective for a particular taxable year or for actions or payments on or after a specified date, the effective date for that added provision is the date specified in the particular subdivision.

(b) Notwithstanding the effective date of the amendment to IC 6-3-2-10, the provision relating to the deduction for amounts not taxable under this article pursuant to 45 U.S.C. 352 is intended as a clarification and is applicable to all prior years for which the deduction under IC 6-3-2-10 was allowed.

(c) The amendments to IC 6-3-2-2.5(c)(2) and IC 6-3-2-2.6(c)(2) apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017.

(d) The amendments to IC 6-3-2-2.5 and IC 6-3-2-2.6 other than those described in subsection (c) apply to taxable years ending after June 30, 2021.

(e) If an Indiana net operating loss carryover remains for a taxable year ending after June 30, 2021, the Indiana net operating loss carryover for use in such taxable years shall be recomputed in a manner consistent with IC 6-3-2-2.5 and IC 6-3-2-2.6 as amended as if they applied to any previous taxable year.

(f) If an Indiana net operating loss arising from a taxable year has been claimed as a deduction in a taxable year ending before July 1, 2021, the Indiana net operating loss available for use in taxable years ending after June 30, 2021, shall be computed after application of the deductions taken for Indiana net operating losses in previous years to the extent necessary to prevent duplicate use of a net operating loss.

(g) The amendment to IC 6-5.5-1-11 is intended as a clarification and not as a substantive change.

(h) This SECTION expires July 1, 2024.
