    YOUNG AMBASSADORS Quotes October 2014 Brigham Young University Contact: Performing Arts Management (801) 422-3576 [email protected] “We are truly impressed by the BYU Young Ambassadors’ impeccable performance. I have been ransacking my brain to find the right words to describe my own impression but I do not think I have found them. So let me just say that the show was absolutely unforgettable, extraordinary, and amazing.” Rutorn Nopakun, President, Rotary Club of Bangrak, Thailand “The production was a sheer delight from the moment it opened with the band and then to be bowled over by the energy, the costumes, the dancing, and vibrant colour and the most beautiful chorus work and the soloists who were of the highest standard and who could most definitely be on the Broadway stage.” Micheal Simmons, Port Elisabeth, South Africa “You have changed many peoples lives with the contribution that you gave our beautiful country, with your time and talents. We will not forget the special moments we had with you.” Wendy Osburn, Public Affairs Council of South Africa “These young people represent the best America has to offer and they are the true ambassadors of the United States.” Steven J.

    DAVID Y. IGE MARIA E. ZIELINSKI GOVERNOR DIRECTOR OF TAXATION SHAN TSUTSUI DAMIEN A. ELEFANTE LT. GOVERNOR DEPUTY DIRECTOR STATE OF HAWAII DEPARTMENT OF TAXATION P.O. BOX 259 HONOLULU, HAWAII 96809 PHONE NO: (808) 587-1540 FAX NO: (808) 587-1560 To: The Honorable Sylvia Luke, Chair and Members of the House Committee on Finance Date: Tuesday, February 28, 2017 Time: 3:00 P.M. Place: Conference Room 308, State Capitol From: Maria E. Zielinski, Director Department of Taxation Re: H.B. 547, H.D. 2, Relating to Taxation The Department of Taxation (Department) appreciates the intent of H.B 547, H.D. 2, which creates a new income tax credit for qualified expenses in hosting a foreign exchange individual. The credit is capped at $400 per month per taxpayer, provided the taxpayer has hosted a foreign exchange individual for a minimum of thirty days. H.B. 547, H.D. 2, applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2016, but has a defective effective date of July 1, 2051. First, the Department notes that the requirement that the taxpayer act as a host to a foreign exchange individual for a minimum of thirty days is unnecessary. This measure already requires that the taxpayer have acted as host for an entire month in order to claim the credit for that month. The requirement that the taxpayer act as host for a minimum of thirty days has no effect beyond making it impossible to claim the credit during the month of February. Second, the Department suggests the deletion of subsection (b) because section 704 of the Internal Revenue Code would apply to the allocation of this credit.
