COGFA says its revenue forecast is holding up, but April will be key

Posted in:

* Capitol News Illinois

Final state revenues for March were up $413 million from the prior year, putting state coffers about $831 million ahead of this time last year. […]

Last month, COGFA increased revenue expectations for the current fiscal year by about $2 billion from what was projected when lawmakers passed the budget last May. It now anticipates $52.6 billion in revenue for the fiscal year that ends June 30.

“While there continues to be subtle signs of weakening in certain revenue areas that must be watched, March’s $413 million in additional growth helps solidify the Commission’s latest forecast,” COGFA wrote in its monthly report.

There’s one quarter left in the fiscal year, and April is a generally volatile month for state revenues as final income tax collections are received. COGFA noted it is not making an adjustment to income tax projections at this time – although April’s performance could move the needle in either direction.

The latest COGFA report is here.
