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 (A 3886) creates a pilot program allowing New Jersey's Division of Taxation to prepare simplified, pre-filled tax returns for eligible residents with straightforward tax situations. It targets NJ residents earning under $75,000 annually with income solely from W-2 wages (no self-employment), who filed simple returns in prior years. Taxpayers receive pre-filled forms by March 15 containing verified wage data and calculated tax liability, which they may choose to use or file manually without penalty. The program is voluntary, free, and aims to reduce filing complexity while requiring taxpayers to verify all information before submission.
