Provides gross income tax deduction for certain moving expenses for taxpayer moving to New Jersey to commence work in State.

This bill (A 896) allows New Jersey taxpayers who move to the state to begin work to deduct certain moving expenses from their gross income. It covers reasonable costs for moving household goods, travel (including lodging), and storage for the taxpayer and their household members (defined as those sharing the former and new residence, excluding employees/tenants). To qualify, taxpayers must work full-time in New Jersey for at least 39 weeks within the first year of moving (or 78 weeks over two years for self-employed individuals), with exceptions for death, disability, or involuntary job loss. The deduction applies to taxable years beginning after the bill’s enactment.
