What it costs you
- The official fiscal note on residents and businesses:
Certain individuals could elect to pay $375 in filing fees as a result of this bill, however the frequency and total amount is unknown.
From the bill's latest official fiscal note, counting the state's tax funds (General, Income Tax, Education, Uniform School, and Transportation) in the first full budget year after the session. Some bills take effect partway through that year, so later years can be larger; the note shows each year. Household count: U.S. Census Bureau. An average is a starting point, not your bill.
