S 5993 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to a tax credit for employers who contribute to a college choice tuition savings account on behalf of an employee

This bill creates a tax credit for employers who contribute to employees' college savings accounts. Employers can claim a credit equal to their contribution (up to $5,000 per employee) toward a "family tuition account" established under New York's Education Law. The credit directly reduces the employer's income tax bill for the year, with any unused portion treated as an overpayment refundable without interest. It applies to contributions made on behalf of employees for college tuition savings, not to employee contributions or other account types.
