Establishes NJ Gross Income Tax EasyFile Program; pilot program to allow Division of Taxation to prepare gross income tax return forms for certain taxpayers.
This bill establishes a pilot program (NJ Gross Income Tax EasyFile) allowing New Jersey's Division of Taxation to pre-fill income tax return forms for eligible taxpayers using data from their W-2s. It directly affects New Jersey residents earning under $75,000 annually who are wage-only earners (not self-employed), have no dependents, and filed simple returns in prior years. The program provides a pre-filled return via mail or secure website by March 15, including wage information and calculated tax liability, but taxpayers may choose to file a traditional return instead. Participation is entirely optional, and taxpayers must verify all information before submitting. The Division must evaluate the pilot's impact on filing burden and processing efficiency within two years.
