(a)   After making the distributions required under §§ 2-604 and 2-605 of
this subtitle, from the remaining income tax revenue from individuals,
the Comptroller shall distribute to an unallocated individual revenue
account the income tax revenue:
    (1)   with respect to which an income tax return is not filed; and
    (2)   that is attributable to:
      (i)   income tax withheld from salary, wages, or other compensation for
personal services under Title 10 of this article; or
      (ii)   estimated income tax payments by individuals.
  (b)   (1)   In June of each year, from current collections, the Comptroller shall
reserve an amount of unallocated revenue that the Comptroller estimates
will be claimed on returns and refunded to taxpayers within 3 years of
the date the income tax return was due to be filed, and distribute to
each county, municipal corporation, and special taxing district a pro
rata share of the balance of the unallocated individual income tax
revenue.
    (2)   The Comptroller shall adjust the amount distributed under paragraph (1)
of this subsection to a county, municipal corporation, or special
taxing district to allow for the proportionate part of tax claim
payments for a prior calendar year made after a distribution is made to
the county, municipal corporation, or special taxing district for that
year.
  (c)   (1)   To compute the pro rata share for a county, the Comptroller shall:
      (i)   compute the amount equal to the product of multiplying the unallocated
individual income tax revenue by a fraction:
        1.   the numerator of which is the income tax for the county collected for a
calendar year; and
        2.   the denominator of which is the total income tax from individuals
collected for that year; and
      (ii)   reduce the amount computed under item (i) of this paragraph by the pro
rata share computed under paragraph (2) of this subsection for
municipal corporations and special taxing districts that are located in
the county.
    (2)   To compute the pro rata share for a municipal corporation or special
taxing district, the Comptroller shall compute the amount equal to the
product of multiplying the pro rata share for a calendar year for the
county where the municipal corporation or district is located by a
fraction:
      (i)   the numerator of which is the amount distributed under § 2-607 of
this subtitle to that municipal corporation or special taxing district
for that year; and
      (ii)   the denominator of which is the total income tax for that county
collected for that year.
