AN ACT RELATING TO TAXATION -- PERSONAL INCOME TAX

HB 7805 establishes Rhode Island's current personal income tax structure, applying to all taxpayers with income in the state (including residents, nonresidents, estates, and trusts). It sets progressive tax rates ranging from 3.75% to 9.90% based on filing status and income levels, with specific brackets adjusted annually for inflation. The bill also includes a cap on capital gains tax rates and provisions for calculating alternative minimum tax. These changes directly affect all Rhode Island taxpayers who file state income tax returns.
