Income and corporation taxes: credit: wages.

The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law allow various credits against the taxes imposed by those laws. This bill, for each taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2019, and before January 1, 2024, would allow a credit against the taxes imposed under both laws to a qualified employer in an amount equal to 35% of the qualified wages paid or incurred during the taxable year to a qualified employee, defined to mean an employee who has no functional hearing and has completed, or is completing, specified rehabilitative services. The bill would prohibit the credit from exceeding $2,100 per employee. This bill would take effect immediately as a tax levy.
