爱达荷州食品税抵免退款创纪录达2.548亿美元：81.3万份申领已处理 总额仍在上升
爱达荷州州长布拉德·利特尔（Brad Little）10月30日宣布，该州通过2025年食品税抵免（grocery tax credit）已向居民退回创纪录的2.548亿美元，为该州历史上最大的一笔此类退款。州长办公室设在爱达荷州埃达县博伊西市。
据州长办公室公布的数据，爱达荷州税务委员会迄今已处理813,241份2025年食品税抵免申领，退款总额达254,849,965美元；由于仍有税表在处理中，这一数字还将继续上升。相比之下，2024年该州共发出205,162,246美元、覆盖822,401份申领；2023年为201,902,723美元、805,341份申领。今年的退款额比去年多出约4,900万美元。
利特尔表示，高企的食品价格正在挤压家庭预算、老年人受影响尤深，这正是立法机构与他本人致力于扩大税收减免的原因；他称创纪录的食品税减免证明该州致力于让居民把更多收入留在自己口袋里。
此次扩围源于利特尔州长2025年签署成法的第231号众议院法案，该法扩大了食品税抵免的规模。州长办公室称，自利特尔上任以来，他与立法机构已累计为爱达荷州居民提供超过61亿美元的各类税收减免。
Idaho Grocery Tax Credit Refunds Hit Record $254.8 Million, With 813,241 Claims Processed So Far
Idaho Governor Brad Little announced on October 30 that the state has returned a record-breaking $254.8 million to residents through the 2025 grocery tax credit, the largest such refund in state history. The governor's office is in Boise, Ada County, Idaho.
According to the governor's office, the Idaho State Tax Commission has so far processed 813,241 grocery tax credit claims for 2025, totaling $254,849,965, and the total is still climbing as final claims are processed. By comparison, Idaho issued $205,162,246 across 822,401 claims for 2024, and $201,902,723 across 805,341 claims for 2023. This year's refunds are about $49 million more than last year's.
Little said high grocery prices are squeezing family budgets and hitting seniors hard, which is why the Legislature and he have focused on expanded tax relief, and he called the record food tax relief proof of the state's commitment to keeping more money in residents' wallets.
The increase follows House Bill 231, signed into law by Little in 2025, which expanded the grocery tax credit. The governor's office said Little and the Legislature have delivered more than $6.1 billion in total tax relief since he took office.
