MINOR
The bill was amended to update the Ulster County property tax offset thresholds and surcharge rate to reflect higher income levels. The income threshold for individuals filing separately increased from $200,000 to $250,000, and for joint filers from $400,000 to $500,000. Additionally, the surcharge rate was raised from 16.75% to 18.75% of the excess state tax.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on Ulster County, but the financial parameters for who pays and how much they pay have been adjusted.
ELIGIBILITY
The income threshold for the surcharge was increased for individuals filing separately (from $200,000 to $250,000) and for joint filers (from $400,000 to $500,000), meaning fewer taxpayers will be subject to the tax.
FISCAL
The surcharge rate was increased from 16.75% to 18.75% of the excess state tax, which increases the revenue generated per dollar of tax liability for those who remain subject to the surcharge.
DEFINITION
The definition of 'Net state tax' was refined to exclude refundable credits for estates and trusts and to ensure the amount cannot be less than zero.
