SUBCHAPTER B. COMPUTATION OF TAXABLE INCOME
Sec. 261.051. TAXABLE INCOME. The taxable income of a resident of this state is the resident's federal adjusted gross income as defined by federal law. Sec. 261.052. CREDIT FOR INCOME TAX PAID TO ANOTHER STATE. (a) A resident individual is allowed a credit against the tax otherwise due under this chapter for the amount of any income tax imposed on the individual for the tax year by another state of the United States on income that is derived from sources in that state and that is subject to tax under this chapter. (b) The credit provided by this section may not exceed the proportion of the tax otherwise due under this chapter that the amount of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income derived from sources in the other taxing jurisdiction bears to the taxpayer's entire adjusted gross income as modified by this subchapter. Sec. 261.053. DUAL RESIDENCE; REDUCTION OF TAX. If a taxpayer is a resident of this state and is regarded as a resident of another jurisdiction for purposes of personal income taxation, the comptroller shall reduce the tax on that portion of the taxpayer's income that is subject to tax in both jurisdictions solely by virtue of dual residence. The reduction shall be in an amount equal to that portion of the lower of the two taxes applicable to the income taxed twice that the tax imposed by this state bears to the combined taxes of the two jurisdictions on the income taxed twice. Sec. 261.054. NONRESIDENT INDIVIDUALS--TAXABLE INCOME. The taxable income of a nonresident individual is that part of the individual's federal adjusted gross income derived from sources in this state determined under Section 261.055. Sec. 261.055. ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME FROM SOURCES IN THIS STATE--NONRESIDENT. (a) The adjusted gross income of a nonresident derived from sources in this state is the net amount of items of income, gain, loss, and deduction entering into the nonresident's federal adjusted gross income that are derived from or connected with sources in this state, including: (1) the nonresident's distributive share of partnership income and deductions determined under Section 261.403; and (2) the nonresident's share of estate or trust income and deductions derived from sources in this state. (b) Items of income, gain, loss, and deduction derived from or connected with sources in this state are those items attributable to: (1) the ownership or disposition of an interest in real or tangible personal property in this state; and (2) a business, trade, profession, or occupation conducted in this state. (c) Income from intangible personal property, including annuities, dividends, interest, and gains from the disposition of intangible personal property, constitutes income derived from sources in this state only to the extent that the income is from property used in a business, trade, profession, or occupation carried on in this state. (d) Deductions for capital losses, net long-term capital gains, and net operating losses derived from or connected with sources in this state, are determined in the same manner as the corresponding federal deductions. However, the extent to which the deductions are derived from or connected with sources in this state is determined under the comptroller's rules. (e) For a nonresident individual who is a shareholder of a corporation that is an electing small business corporation for federal income tax purposes, the undistributed taxable income of the corporation does not constitute income derived from sources in this state and a net operating loss of the corporation does not constitute a loss or deduction connected with sources in this state. (f) If a business, trade, profession, or occupation is carried on partly in and partly outside this state, the items of income and deduction derived from or connected with sources in this state are determined by apportionment and allocation consistent with Chapter 141 under the comptroller's rules. (g) Compensation paid by the United States for service in the armed forces of the United States performed by a nonresident is not income derived from sources in this state.

(a) For purposes of the tax imposed by this chapter, a taxpayer's tax year is the same as the taxpayer's tax year for federal income tax purposes. (b) If a taxpayer's tax year is changed for federal income tax purposes, the taxpayer's tax year for purposes of the tax imposed by this chapter shall be similarly changed. Sec. 261.202. METHODS OF ACCOUNTING. (a) A taxpayer's method of accounting is the same as the taxpayer's method of accounting for federal income tax purposes. If a single method of accounting has not been regularly used by the taxpayer, taxable income for purposes of this chapter shall be computed under any method that in the opinion of the comptroller fairly reflects income. (b) If a taxpayer's method of accounting is changed for federal income tax purposes, the taxpayer's method of accounting for purposes of this chapter is changed in the same manner. Sec. 261.203. ADJUSTMENTS. In computing a taxpayer's taxable income for any tax year under a method of accounting different from the method under which the taxpayer's taxable income for the previous year was computed, there shall be taken into account those adjustments that are determined, under rules prescribed by the comptroller, to be necessary solely by reason of the change in order to prevent amounts from being duplicated or omitted. Sec. 261.204. LIMITATION ON ADDITIONAL TAX. (a) If a taxpayer's method of accounting is changed, other than from an accrual to an installment method, an additional tax that results from adjustments determined to be necessary solely because of the change may not be greater than if those adjustments were ratably allocated and included for the tax year of the change and not more than two preceding tax years during which the taxpayer used the method of accounting from which the change is made. (b) If a taxpayer's method of accounting is changed from an accrual to an installment method, an additional tax for the year of the change of method and for a subsequent year that is attributable to the receipt of installment payments properly accrued in a prior year shall be reduced by the portion of tax for any prior tax year attributable to the accrual of the installment payments, under rules adopted by the comptroller.

SUBCHAPTER E. PARTNERS AND PARTNERSHIPS

(b) Each item of partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction has the same character for a partner under this chapter as it has for federal income tax purposes. If an item is not characterized for federal income tax purposes, it has the same character for a partner as if realized directly from the source from which realized by the partnership or incurred in the same manner as incurred by the partnership. (c) If a partner's distributive share of an item of partnership income, gain, loss, or deduction is determined for federal income tax purposes by a special provision in the partnership agreement with respect to the item, and the principal purpose of the provision is the avoidance or evasion of tax under this chapter, the partner's distributive share of the item and a modification required with respect to it is determined in accordance with the partner's distributive share of the taxable income or loss of the partnership generally, excluding those items requiring separate computation under Section 702, Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Sec. 261.403. NONRESIDENT PARTNER--ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME FROM SOURCES IN THIS STATE. (a) In determining the adjusted gross income of a nonresident partner of any partnership, there shall be included only that part derived from or connected with sources in this state of the partner's distributive share of items of partnership income, gain, loss, and deduction entering into the partner's federal adjusted gross income, as that part is determined under rules adopted by the comptroller and consistent with the rules adopted under Section 261.055. (b) Except as authorized by Subsection (c), in determining the sources of a nonresident partner's income, no effect is given to a provision in the partnership agreement that: (1) characterizes payments to the partner as being for services or for the use of capital, or allocates to the partner, as income or gain from sources outside this state, a greater proportion of the partner's distributive share of partnership income or gain than the ratio of partnership income or gain from sources outside this state to partnership income or gain from all sources; or (2) allocates to the partner a greater proportion of a partnership item of loss or deduction connected with sources in this state than the partner's proportionate share, for federal income tax purposes, of partnership loss or deduction generally. (c) The comptroller may, on application, authorize the use of other methods of determining a nonresident partner's portion of partnership items derived from or connected with sources in this state, and the modifications related to it, that are appropriate and equitable, on terms the comptroller may require. (d) A nonresident partner's distributive share of items of income, gain, loss, or deduction is determined under Section 261.402(a). The character of partnership items for a nonresident partner is determined under Section 261.402(b). The effect of a special provision in a partnership agreement, other than a provision described by Subsection (b), having as a principal purpose the avoidance or evasion of tax under this chapter is determined under Section 261.402(c).

A receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, assignee for benefit of creditors, or other similar fiduciary shall give notice of the person's qualification to the comptroller, as may be required by rule. Sec. 261.504. CHANGE OF STATUS AS RESIDENT OR NONRESIDENT DURING YEAR. (a) If the status of an individual changes during the individual's tax year from resident to nonresident or from nonresident to resident, the comptroller by rule may require the individual to file one return for the portion of the year during which the individual is a resident and one for the portion of the year during which the individual is a nonresident. (b) Except as provided by Subsection (c), the taxable income of an individual is determined as provided by Section 261.051 for residents and Section 261.054 for nonresidents as if the individual's tax year for federal income tax purposes were limited to the period of the individual's resident and nonresident status respectively. (c) There shall be included in determining taxable income from sources in or outside this state, as the case may be, income, gain, loss, or deduction accrued prior to the change of status even though not otherwise includable or allowable in respect to the period before the change, but the taxation or deduction of items accrued before the change of status is not affected by the change.

The comptroller by rule shall prescribe the place for filing a return, statement, or other document required by this chapter and for the payment of a tax. Sec. 261.506. ESTIMATED TAX. (a) An individual subject to the income tax imposed by this chapter shall make estimated payments of the tax. Section 6654, Internal Revenue Code of 1986, other than Subsections (a), (b), (d)(2), and (e) of that section, governing the payment of estimated federal income taxes on individuals applies to the payments required by this section, including exemptions from the estimated tax payment requirement. A reference in that section to the federal income tax imposed on individuals is construed as a reference to the tax imposed by this chapter as required to administer this section. A power or duty given by Section 6654, Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to the United States secretary of the treasury is assigned to the comptroller for purposes of the estimated payments required by this section. (b) The comptroller shall adopt rules for the administration of this section. (c) Payment of the estimated tax or an installment is considered payment on account of the tax imposed by this chapter. Sec. 261.507. EXTENSION OF TIME FOR FILING AND PAYMENT. (a) The comptroller, on terms the comptroller may require, may grant a reasonable extension of time for payment of tax or an installment, or for filing a return, statement, or other document required under this chapter. Except for an extension for a taxpayer who is outside the United States, an extension for filing a return, statement, or document may not exceed six months. (b) If the time for the payment of an amount of tax is extended, the comptroller may require the taxpayer to furnish a bond or other security in an amount not exceeding twice the amount of tax for which the extension of time for payment is granted, on terms the comptroller may require.

SIGNING OF RETURNS AND OTHER DOCUMENTS. (a) A return, statement, or other document required to be made or filed under this chapter shall be signed as provided by the comptroller. An individual's name signed to a return, statement, or other document is prima facie evidence that the individual signed the return, statement, or other document. (b) A return, statement, or other document required of a partnership must be signed by at least one partner. A partner's name signed to a return, statement, or other document is prima facie evidence that the partner is authorized to sign on behalf of the partnership. (c) The making or filing of a return, statement, or other document or copy required to be made or filed under this chapter, including a copy of a federal return, constitutes a certification by the person making or filing the return, statement, or other document or copy that the statements contained in it are true and that a copy filed is a true copy.

Sec. 261.602. FAILURE TO PAY TAX. (a) A person who does not pay any amount of tax owed by the person on the prescribed date shall pay, in addition to all other penalties and interest, a penalty of 10 percent of the amount of the tax due and owing on the prescribed date. (b) The prescribed date is determined with regard to extensions of time allowed by the comptroller.

(a) Within the applicable period of limitations the comptroller may credit an overpayment of income tax and interest on the overpayment against a liability of a tax imposed by the tax laws of this state on the person who made the overpayment, and the balance shall be refunded by the comptroller out of the proceeds of the tax retained by the comptroller. (b) The comptroller may prescribe rules providing for crediting against the estimated tax for a tax year the amount determined to be an overpayment of the income tax for a preceding tax year. (c) If an amount of income tax is assessed and collected after the expiration of the period of limitations properly applicable, the amount is an overpayment. Sec. 261.632. ABATEMENTS. (a) The comptroller may abate any unpaid portion of a tax or a tax liability that is excessive in amount, assessed after the expiration of the applicable period of limitations, or erroneously or illegally assessed. (b) The comptroller may abate the unpaid portion of a tax or a tax liability if the comptroller determines under uniform rules prescribed by the comptroller that the administration and collection costs involved would not warrant collection of the amount due. Sec. 261.633. EXTENDED LIMITATION PERIOD. (a) If a taxpayer is required by Section 261.522 to report a change or correction in federal taxable income reported on a federal income tax return, or to report a change or correction that is treated in the same manner as if it were an overpayment for federal income tax purposes, or to file an amended return with the comptroller, a claim for credit or refund of a resulting overpayment of tax must be filed by the taxpayer not later than the second anniversary of the date the notice of the change or correction or the amended return was required to be filed with the comptroller. If the report or amended return required by Section 261.522 is not filed within the period prescribed by that section, interest on a resulting refund or credit ceases to accrue after the period. The amount of credit or refund may not exceed the amount of the reduction in tax attributable to the federal change, correction, or items amended on the taxpayer's amended federal income tax return. This subsection does not affect the time within which or the amount for which a claim for credit or refund may be filed under a provision other than this section. (b) If a claim for credit or refund relates to an overpayment of tax on account of the deductibility by the taxpayer of a debt as a debt that became worthless or a loss from worthlessness of a security or the effect that the deductibility of a debt or of a loss has on the application to the taxpayer of a carryover, the claim may be made, under rules adopted by the comptroller, not later than the seventh anniversary of the date prescribed by law for filing the return for the year with respect to which the claim is made.

If notice and demand for the payment of a tax is given to a nonresident and it appears to the comptroller that it is not practicable to locate property of the taxpayer sufficient in amount to cover the amount of tax due, the comptroller may authorize the institution of any available action or proceeding to collect or enforce the claim in any place by any procedure by which a civil judgment of a court of record of this state could be collected or enforced. The comptroller may designate agents or retain counsel outside this state for the purpose of collecting taxes due under this chapter and require of them bonds or other security for the faithful performance of their duties. The comptroller may enter into agreements with the tax department of another state for the collection of taxes from persons found in this state who are delinquent in the payment of income taxes imposed by that state on condition that the agreeing state afford similar assistance in the collection of taxes from persons found in that state who are delinquent in the payment of taxes imposed by this chapter. Sec. 261.652. INCOME TAX CLAIMS OF OTHER STATES. The courts of this state shall recognize and enforce liabilities for personal income taxes lawfully imposed by another state that extends a like comity to this state, and the duly authorized officer of the other state may sue for the collection of personal income tax in the courts of this state. A certificate by the secretary of state of the other state that an officer suing for the collection of the tax is duly authorized to collect the tax is conclusive proof of the officer's authority. For the purposes of this section, "taxes" includes additions to tax, interest, and penalties. Sec. 261.653. ORDER TO COMPEL COMPLIANCE. (a) On application of the attorney general, a judge of a court of appropriate jurisdiction for the county in which a taxpayer or other person who intentionally or knowingly refuses to file a tax return required by this chapter may, by order, direct the person to file the return.

(b) If any person intentionally or knowingly refuses to make available any books, papers, records, or memorandums for examination by the comptroller or wilfully refuses to attend and testify, in accordance with the powers conferred on the comptroller by Chapter 111, on application of the comptroller, a judge in the court of appropriate jurisdiction for the county where the person resides may by order direct the person to comply with the comptroller's request for books, papers, records, or memorandums or for the person's attendance and testimony. If the books, papers, records, or memorandums required by the comptroller are in the custody of a corporation, the order of the court may be directed to any principal officer of the corporation. A person who fails or refuses to obey the order is guilty of contempt of court. Sec. 261.654. TRANSFEREES. (a) The liability, at law or in equity, of a transferee of property of a taxpayer for any tax, addition to tax, penalty, or interest due under this chapter, is assessed, paid, and collected in the same manner and subject to the same provisions and limitations as in the case of the tax to which the liability relates except as otherwise provided by this section. "Transferee" includes an heir or a recipient of a donation, legacy, devise, or distribution. (b) The period of limitation for assessment of liability of a transferee is: (1) the first anniversary of the expiration of the period of limitation against the initial transferor if the transferee is the initial transferee; (2) the first anniversary of the expiration of the period of limitation against the preceding transferee, but not later than the third anniversary of the expiration of the period of limitation for assessment against the initial transferor, if the transferee is not the initial transferee; or (3) notwithstanding Subdivisions (1) and (2), if before the expiration of the period of limitation under Subdivision (1) or (2) a proceeding for the collection of the liability has been begun against the initial transferor or the last preceding transferee, respectively, the first anniversary of the date on which the proceeding is terminated. (c) If, before the expiration of the period of limitation applicable to a transferee, the comptroller and the transferee consent in writing to an assessment after that time, the liability may be assessed at any time before the expiration of the agreed period. The period of limitation on credit or refund to the transferee of overpayments of tax made by the transferee or of overpayments of tax made by the transferor of which the transferee is legally entitled to credit or refund is extended by an agreement under this subsection and any extension of the agreement. (d) If a person dies, the period of limitation for assessment against that person is the period that would be in effect had death not occurred. Sec. 261.655. JEOPARDY DETERMINATIONS. (a) If the comptroller issues a jeopardy determination for a tax for a current period, the comptroller shall terminate the tax period of the taxpayer immediately, and the notice and demand for a return and immediate payment of the tax shall apply to the terminated period and to income accrued and deductions incurred on or before termination date if not otherwise properly includable or deductible for the period. (b) The comptroller may abate the jeopardy determination if the comptroller finds that jeopardy does not exist. Sec. 261.656. BANKRUPTCY OR RECEIVERSHIP. (a) On the adjudication of bankruptcy of any taxpayer in any bankruptcy proceeding or the appointment of a receiver for any taxpayer in any receivership proceeding before any court of the United States or any state or territory, any deficiency, together with additions to tax and interest provided by law, determined by the comptroller may be immediately assessed. (b) Claims for the deficiency and additions to tax and interest may be presented, for adjudication in accordance with law, to the court before which the bankruptcy or receivership proceeding is pending, despite the pendency of any protest before the comptroller. A protest against a proposed assessment may not be filed with the comptroller after the adjudication of bankruptcy or appointment of the receiver. Sec. 261.657. EVIDENCE OF RELATED FEDERAL DETERMINATION. Evidence of a federal determination relevant to the taxes imposed by this chapter is admissible in an administrative or judicial proceeding relating to those taxes.
