S 3687 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Allows tax credits for employing members of NJ National Guard and members of reserve component of US Armed Forces.

This bill creates tax credits for New Jersey businesses that employ members of the New Jersey National Guard or the reserve component of the U.S. Armed Forces. Employers receive a $1,500 credit per qualified service member who has not completed a deployment or activation, or $2,500 for those who have completed or returned from deployment. The credit applies to both the corporation business tax and the gross income tax, with specific rules for partnerships and S corporations. It directly benefits employers hiring military reservists, aiming to incentivize their employment through targeted tax relief.
