Arizona provides an opportunity for Corporations that are domiciled in AZ to redirect up to 100% of their AZ tax liability toward a School Tuition Organization like ASK to be distributed as scholarships for students in private K-12 education. This Tax Liability can be Income Tax or Insurance Premium Tax.
The Arizona Cap on the funds available for this program opens up July 1st, 2023, so time is of the essence because the cap typically closes very quickly. The Cap that Arizona has designated for low income families is $158 million +an additional $6 million designated for displaced/ disabled students, but we still expect the same or higher volume of participation as this is a very popular program for Corporations to utilize.
To summarize, Corporations may redirect up to 100% of their Corporate Income or Insurance Premium tax liability from the State of Arizona to a state licensed School Tuition Organization (STO) like America’s Scholarship Konnection (ASK) and receive a dollar for dollar tax credit.
The funds are distributed by ASK to families, in the form of scholarships for private K-12 education.
