SF 4945 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Tax-related data practices policy and technical provisions

This bill updates Minnesota tax laws to allow the Department of Revenue to share specific taxpayer data with other state agencies for administrative and investigative purposes. It authorizes the sharing of delinquent tax information with the State Lottery, return details with the Department of Human Services, and unclaimed property data including Social Security numbers with the Department of Commerce. Additionally, the legislation permits the exchange of fraud-related data with law enforcement and public safety agencies to investigate suspected violations in public programs and employer compliance. These changes enable more targeted information sharing to help various departments administer their programs and enforce laws more effectively.
