Chapter 110 - INDIVIDUAL INCOME TAX
Section 23VAC10-110-280 - Nongame wildlife voluntary contribution
Any individual who is eligible for a state income tax refund may elect to designate that all or a portion of such refund be used for the conservation and management of endangered species and other nongame wildlife. Such election will reduce the amount of refund which the individual will receive by an amount equal to that which is designated for contribution to the nongame wildlife fund.
The amount designated for contribution pursuant to this section must be in whole dollars, i.e., no fractional portions of a dollar may be designated, unless the entire refund is contributed.
If a husband and wife elect to file separately on a combined return (Filing Status #4), they may not designate separate contributions but must instead designate a joint contribution as they mutually agree. For purposes of this section, the term "non-game wildlife" shall include protected wildlife, endangered and threatened wildlife, aquatic wildlife, specialized habitat wildlife both terrestrial and aquatic, and mollusks, crustaceans, and other invertebrates under the jurisdiction of the Board of Game and Inland Fisheries.
Statutory Authority: § 58.1-203 of the Code of Virginia.
