American Red Cross, Badger Chapter checkoff.

In this subsection: 1. “Badger Chapter” means the Badger Chapter of the American Red Cross. 2. “Department” means the department of revenue.

1. ‘Designation on return.’ Subject to sub. (5s), every individual filing an income tax return who has a tax liability or is entitled to a tax refund may designate on the return any amount of additional payment or any amount of a refund due that individual for the Badger Chapter. 2. ‘Designation added to tax owed.’ If the individual owes any tax, the individual shall remit in full the tax due and the amount designated on the return for the Badger Chapter when the individual files a tax return. 3. ‘Designation deducted from refund.’ Except as provided in par. (d), if the individual is owed a refund for that year after crediting under ss. 71.75 (9) and 71.80 (3) and (3m), the department shall deduct the amount designated on the return for the Badger Chapter from the amount of the refund.

If an individual who owes taxes fails to remit an amount equal to or in excess of the total of the actual tax due, after error corrections, and the amount designated on the return for the Badger Chapter: 1. The department shall reduce the designation for the Badger Chapter to reflect the amount remitted in excess of the actual tax due, after error corrections, if the individual remitted an amount in excess of the actual tax due, after error corrections, but less than the total of the actual tax due, after error corrections, and the amount originally designated on the return for the Badger Chapter. 2. The designation for the Badger Chapter is void if the individual remitted an amount equal to or less than the actual tax due, after error corrections.

If an individual is owed a refund that does not equal or exceed the amount designated on the return for the Badger Chapter, after crediting under ss. 71.75 (9) and 71.80 (3) and (3m) and after error corrections, the department shall reduce the designation for the Badger Chapter to reflect the actual amount of the refund that the individual is otherwise owed, after crediting under ss. 71.75 (9) and 71.80 (3) and (3m) and after error corrections.

If an individual places any conditions on a designation for the Badger Chapter, the designation is void.

If a designation for the Badger Chapter is void, the department shall disregard the designation and determine amounts due, owed, refunded, and received without regard to the void designation.

The secretary of revenue shall provide a place for the designations under this subsection on the individual income tax return.

Annually, on or before September 15, the secretary of revenue shall certify to the department of health services, the department of administration, and the state treasurer all of the following: 1. The total amount of the administrative costs, including data processing costs, incurred by the department in administering this subsection during the previous fiscal year. 2. The total amount received from all designations for the Badger Chapter made by taxpayers during the previous fiscal year. 3. The net amount remaining after the administrative costs, including data processing costs, under subd. 1. are subtracted from the total received under subd. 2.

From the moneys received from designations for the Badger Chapter, an amount equal to the sum of administrative expenses, including data processing costs, certified under par. (h) 1. shall be deposited in the general fund and credited to the appropriation account under s. 20.566 (1) (hp), and the net amount remaining that is certified under par. (h) 3. shall be credited to the appropriation under s. 20.855 (4) (gd) and the department shall annually pay that certified net amount to the Badger Chapter for its Wisconsin Disaster Relief Fund.
