A 4145 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides temporary corporation business tax and gross income tax credits for certain employer-provided child care expenditures.

This bill creates a temporary tax credit for New Jersey employers who build or improve facilities to provide child care for their employees' children. Employers can claim a 50% credit (up to $50,000) against corporation business tax or gross income tax for eligible property expenses, effective for three years after the bill's enactment. To qualify, employers must commit to using the property as a child care center for employees' children for 60 consecutive months and submit documentation to the state tax authority. If the property stops serving this purpose (except in cases of casualty or transfer), employers must repay the credit plus interest. The credit directly affects businesses establishing on-site or contracted child care centers for their workforce.
