Major Program Changes
  • An increase of $3.9 million General Fund and 29 positions for the Enterprise Data to Revenue (EDR) project. EDR is a multi-year project that will increase the usable information entered into the FTB database from personal income tax and business entity tax returns. EDR will generate $14 million in General Fund revenues in 2009-10, increasing to at least $90 million in 2012-13.

  • An increase of $3.1 million General Fund and 13 positions to implement legislation (Chapter 345, Statutes of 2008) that allows local governments to share business license information with FTB to identify those who are not filing state tax returns. The effort will generate General Fund revenues of $4 million in 2009-10, increasing to $40 million in 2013-14.

  • An increase of $1.3 million General Fund for the Enterprise Customer, Asset, Income, and Return project. This is a multi-year project to expand the capacity of the mainframe that collects personal income tax and corporation tax return data, which will enable improved collections.
