S 3534 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Exempts compensation for active military service from inclusion in a resident's adjusted gross income

This bill exempts active-duty military compensation from New York State income tax calculations for qualifying residents. It directly affects New York residents who serve in the U.S. armed forces outside the state for at least 90 days during a tax year while maintaining a permanent New York residence (such as a home, barracks, or military quarters). The exemption applies to taxable years beginning January 1, 2026, and covers all active-duty pay earned outside New York, provided the service member meets the residence requirements. The policy change removes military compensation from taxable income under specific residency conditions, aligning with New York's tax treatment for service members.
