Section 10 of Chapter 2021-193, L.O.F., created s. 1003.485, F.S., The New Worlds Reading Initiative, which provides that a taxpayer may receive a credit against certain taxes for making an eligible contribution to the administrator of the initiative designated by the Department of Education. Section 2 of Chapter 2021-193, L.O.F., created s. 211.0252, F.S., which establish the amount of tax credits allowed for contributions to the administrator of the initiative. The proposed amendments to four forms, incorporated by reference in Rule 12B-7.0087, reflect these provisions.
