S 7592 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Provides for an angel investor income tax credit

Bill S 7592 creates an income tax credit for "angel investors" who invest in qualifying new businesses. Individual accredited investors, excluding those with controlling stakes or institutional venture capital firms, can receive a credit equal to 25% of their investment, for investments of $25,000 or more. The maximum credit allowed per investment is $250,000, and any unused credit can be carried over to future tax years. To qualify, businesses must be relatively new, have limited revenue, employ fewer than 25 full-time staff with at least 60% in New York, and have received no more than $2 million in previous angel investor credits. This legislation applies to personal and corporate income tax years beginning on and after January 1, 2026.
