(The Center Square) â Net tax revenue in Georgia was $2.8 billion in April, representing a $964 million increase, or 52.4%, compared with April 2020, Gov. Brian Kemp s office said.
Georgia s decision to delay processing tax year 2020, however, made it hard to grasp the full year-over-year comparisons. Fiscal-year-to-date net tax collections are nearly $21.7 billion, a 13.1% year-over-year increase.Â
Individual income tax collections totaled about $1.2 billion â an increase of $371 million, or 44%, compared with April 2020. Individual income tax refunds increased by $128.9 million, or 40.4%.
Net sales and use tax collection increased by $220.5 million, or 45%, compared with April 2020. The adjusted sales tax distribution to local governments was $624.2 million, a 27% increase compared with fiscal year 2020.
