Relates to tax check-off boxes on personal income tax return forms; repealer
This bill adds a new option for New York taxpayers to make voluntary charitable contributions directly on their state income tax forms starting in 2025. Taxpayers may elect to contribute whole-dollar amounts to registered charities without reducing their state tax liability. The bill repeals multiple existing tax law sections (625-630-d) that previously governed similar charitable contribution mechanisms. It also removes outdated references to these repealed sections from conservation fund descriptions in state law.
