Bill Summary · AB 11

AB 11 (BDR 32-285) — Summary

Status: Approved by the Governor (Chapter 98). Effective upon passage and approval.
Sponsor: Assembly Committee on Revenue (on behalf of the Department of Taxation)
Statute amended: NRS 360.105

Purpose / Intent

AB 11 revises the statutory timing for when the Nevada Department of Taxation must deliver its proposed biennial budget and any proposed legislation to the Nevada Tax Commission. The change is designed to align the Department’s formal submission with the Legislature’s regular session schedule so the Commission can consider the Department’s proposals in advance of the session.

Key provisions

  • Amends NRS 360.105 to change the submission deadline:
    • Previous requirement: Department submitted its proposed budget and proposed legislation to the Nevada Tax Commission in June of each even-numbered year (or at a June meeting if a specific June meeting was not held).
    • New requirement (as enacted): During January of each odd-numbered year, the Department shall submit to the Nevada Tax Commission, at a meeting of the Commission, a copy of the proposed budget for the Department for the next two fiscal years and any legislation proposed by the Department for consideration by the Legislature at its next regular session.
  • Removes the prior June/even-year meeting framing and related conditional meeting language.
  • Effective date: immediate (upon passage and approval).

Who is affected

  • Primary: Nevada Department of Taxation — changes the timing of its formal submission to the Tax Commission.
  • Nevada Tax Commission — will receive and consider the Department’s proposed budget and legislative proposals in January of odd-numbered years.
  • Nevada Legislature — will receive Commission consideration of the Department’s proposals in advance of the next regular legislative session (Nevada’s Legislature meets in odd-numbered years), improving alignment for legislative consideration.
  • Local governments and taxpayers: no direct operational or fiscal changes; the statute only changes timing of internal submissions and Commission consideration.

Fiscal and operational impact

  • Fiscal note: no expected effect on the State or local governments was reported.
  • Operational impact: administrative — the Department and Commission will shift scheduling and any internal processes to meet the January odd-year submission requirement.

Legislative history (selected)

  • Introduced / Prefiled: October 30 – December 2, 2024 (prefiled/first read).
  • Passed both houses; enrolled and delivered to Governor May 27, 2025.
  • Approved by Governor: May 29, 2025. Chapter 98.

Practical effect

By moving the Department’s required submission to January of odd-numbered years, AB 11 ensures the Nevada Tax Commission reviews the Department of Taxation’s proposed biennial budget and proposed legislation shortly before the Legislature’s regular session, improving the timing for legislative consideration without changing substantive budget or tax policy authority.
