Adds a new Section 24, the purpose of which is to extend the statute of limitations for requesting a refund of State income taxes to conform to federal tax treatment of the rollover of an airline payment amount by a qualified airline employee to a traditional or Roth IRA to prevent double taxation of the amount for State income tax purposes. Defines airline payment amount and qualified airline employee. Allows a qualified airline employee, or the surviving spouse of a qualified airline employee, that meets all of the following conditions to apply to the Department of Revenue for a refund of the State individual income tax paid on the airline payment amount that was transferred to a traditional IRA: (1) received an airline payment amount in a taxable year beginning before 21 January 1, 2012, and included the amount in federal adjusted gross income; (2) transferred any portion of the airline payment amount to a traditional IRA by August 13, 2012; and (3) filed a claim for refund of federal individual income tax paid on the airline payment amount by April 15, 2015, that was accepted by the Internal Revenue Service.
