Be It Enacted by the Senate and General Assembly of the State of New Jersey:

STATEMENT
This bill revises the effective date of P.L.2022, c.24, which established the State's child tax credit. The bill provides that the provisions of P.L.2022, c.24 are to apply to taxable years beginning on and after January 1, 2022.
The child tax credit allows a refundable gross income tax credit of $500 for each child of a resident taxpayer if the taxpayer's income is $30,000 or less. The $500 amount is reduced by $100 for every $10,000 of income that the taxpayer's taxable income exceeds $30,000 until the taxpayer's income reaches $80,000.
