S 4305 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Increases grant limit for reassignment of employees to State in certain cases; requires publication of guidance and authorizes State intervention for income tax refund claims filed outside State.

This bill creates a pilot program to help businesses bring New Jersey resident employees back to the state by offering financial grants. To qualify, companies must have at least 25 full-time employees and be primarily located outside New Jersey, with a total annual funding cap of $35 million. The grant amount is generally limited to the state income tax withheld from the relocated workers, though it can be higher if the move is projected to generate significantly more tax revenue for the state. Additionally, the legislation allows the state to intervene and provide tax credits to residents who were wrongly denied refunds by other states for taxes paid on income earned while working in New Jersey.
