Category Description: Taxes levied on the gross income of individuals or on the net income of corporations and businesses (i.e., after allowable deductions).
Deduct refunds of taxes from gross collections even if they were recorded as tax revenue in a previous fiscal year.
Note: Not all states report all tax types. If the amount is zero for all time, then it is likely that the state does not report or collect the chosen tax type.
