Tax Law Changes

There are extensive legislative changes to IA for tax year 2023. The IA DOR is currently in the process of drafting administrative rules related to many of the following provisions. See the 2018 IA Senate File 2417 and 2022 IA House File 2317 for additional information; refer the IA DOR 2023 Changes to Iowa Individual Income Tax webpage for an overview of many of the changes mentioned below.

  • The filing status “Married Filing Separately on a Combined Return” is no longer available.

  • Iowa’s Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) has been repealed. The AMT credit is allowed for tax year 2023 but cannot be carried forward to another tax year.

  • The starting taxation point for IA individual income tax returns is now the same as federal taxable income, allowing taxpayers the same:

    • Standard and itemized deductions (subject to IA adjustments)

    • Net operating loss (as calculated for federal purposes for losses, which are incurred on or after January 1, 2023); for NOLs incurred prior to tax year 2023 and carried forward to tax year 2023 or later, taxpayers must:

      • Add back the federal NOL carryforward

      • Deduct the amount of IA NOL carryforward until the NOL runs out or expires

  • Retirement income is no longer taxable for taxpayers who are 55 years or older or who are disabled. Refer to the IA Retirement Income Tax Guidance webpage, which addresses who qualifies for the retirement income exclusion, what retirement income qualifies for the exclusion, and the withholding requirements related to retirement income.

  • The following table lists the income tax rates effective for tax years 2023 – 2026. Beginning tax year 2026, IA has a flat individual income tax rate of 3.9%.

Lower Income Tax Limit** Upper Income Tax Limit** TY 2024 Rate TY 2025 Rate TY 2025 Rate
$0 $6,000 4.40% 4.40% 3.90%
$6,001 $30,000 4.82% 4.82% 3.90%
$30,001 $75,000 5.70% 4.82% 3.90%
$75,001 No limit 5.70% 4.82% 3.90%

Note  **Lower and upper limits are doubled for Married Filing Jointly returns.

Deductibility of Federal Taxes Paid

The deduction for federal taxes paid has been repealed; there is a one-year transition period where federal taxes paid for a previous tax year can be deducted. Following is a summary of the allowed deductions and required additions for tax year 2023:

  • The amount of federal taxes paid in tax year 2023 for a prior-year federal income tax return (tax year 2022 and before) is still allowed as a deduction.

  • The amount of any federal estimated income tax payments paid in tax year 2023 for tax year 2022 is still allowed as a deduction.

  • The amount of any federal refund received in tax year 2023 for a prior tax period must be included as income in tax year 2023, as in prior tax years.

Student Loan Repayments by Employers

Taxpayers can deduct the amount of student loan repayments paid by an employer from taxable income for IA purposes. Payments on any qualified loan for this purpose include:

  • Payments made to the taxpayer or to a lender

  • Payments of principal or interest

If the taxpayer is eligible for a deduction in computing federal taxable income under section 221 of the Internal Revenue Code for interest paid on a qualified student loan, the taxpayer must recompute the amount of the deduction by subtracting from the deduction the amount of interest that was also deducted for federal purposes.

Health Insurance Deduction

The additional IA health insurance premiums deduction, previously allowed for all taxpayers, is now limited to taxpayers of age 65 or older with a net income of less than $100,000. To determine whether a taxpayer’s net income is less than $100,000 for purposes of this provision, taxpayers are required to add back the following items:

  • Pension or retirement income exclusion

  • Standard deduction

  • Itemized deduction

  • Personal exemption deduction

  • Qualified business income deduction

Capital Gain Exclusion for Sale of Qualified Stock

Qualifying taxpayers can now subtract net capital gains from the sale of stock of a qualified corporation.

An employee-owner is entitled to make one irrevocable lifetime election to exclude net capital gain from the sale or exchange of capital stock of one qualified corporation that was acquired on account of employment by the qualified corporation. The single lifetime election applies to:

  • All subsequent sales or exchanges within 15 years of date of election

  • Qualifying capital stock that has been transferred by inter vivos gift from employee-owner to either:

    • The employee-owner’s spouse

    • A trust for the benefit of the spouse

If the employee-owner dies after selling or exchanging qualifying capital stock without making an election, the surviving spouse or personal representative may make the single lifetime election.

The allowed deduction on qualifying net capital gains for each tax year is as follows:

  • Tax years beginning in 2023 – 33%

  • Tax years beginning in 2024 – 66%

  • Tax years beginning in or after 2025 – 100%

Retired Farmer Lease Income Exclusion

Eligible taxpayers may subtract, to the extent included, net income received pursuant to a farm tenancy agreement covering real property. The real property must have been held by the eligible individual for 10 or more years. Individuals must also:

  • Have materially participated in the farming business for 10 or more years

  • Be 55 years of age or older or disabled at the time of the election

  • No longer materially participate in a farming business

  • Be a party to a farm tenancy agreement

Capital Gain Exclusion for Sale of Specific Farming-Related Property

Net capital gains from the sale of specific farming-related property may qualify for the capital gains deduction. Applicable sales include:

  • Real property used in a farming business

  • Cattle or horses

  • Breeding livestock (other than cattle and horses)

Repeal of Certain Capital Gains Deductions and Allowance of Installment Sales

Most IA capital gains deductions have been repealed, including the deductions for the sale of:

  • Cattle, horses, or breeding livestock, except in the case of retired farmers

  • Real property used in a non-farm business

  • Timber

  • A business

  • Employer securities to a qualified IA employee stock ownership plan (ESOP)

Installments for sales initiated prior to January 1, 2023, qualify for the capital gains deduction; installment sales completed prior to January 1, 2023, that previously qualified for the capital gains deduction continue to qualify for the capital gains deduction on or after January 1, 2023.
