Nebraska Tax Receipts Close to Projections in February

ne-department-of-revenueLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska’s net tax receipts in February were roughly in line with projections made last year.

The Department of Revenue reported Thursday that the state collected about $279 million last month, which is less than 1 percent above the certified forecast of $277 million.

Net sales-and-use taxes were more than 4 percent below the state forecast, while net individual, net corporate and net miscellaneous taxes were higher than projected.

Net receipts for the current fiscal year total nearly $2.7 billion, which is virtually unchanged from the certified forecast.

The projections were approved in October by the Nebraska Economic Forecasting Advisory Board.
