How does it work for the partner, member, or shareholders?Ĭonsenting pass-through entity owners claim a nonrefundable credit on their personal income tax return equal to the elective tax paid on their behalf (9.3% of their qualified net income). For tax years beginning in 2022 through 2023, the elective tax is due in two installments: the greater of $1,000 or 50% of the tax paid in the prior year is due by June 15th of the taxable year of the election and the remaining amount is due on or before the due date of the original return (without regard to extension). For tax years beginning in 2021, the tax is due on or before the entity’s return due date, without regard to extensions. The election is irrevocable and must be made annually on a timely filed return for the year of election. How does it work for the pass-through entity? S Corporation owners may be limited in their ability to choose to pay the tax if the entity elects to pay the tax. Qualified entities first make an annual election and then each individual owner can choose if they want the entity to pay the tax on their share of the entity’s income. Qualified entities do not include publicly traded partnerships, entities required to be in a combined reporting group.
Qualified entities, which include Partnerships, S corporations and LLCs filing as partnerships, can make an election on an annual basis to utilize to pay a 9.3% tax on their qualified income.

Along with other provisions, AB 150 allows certain owners of pass-through entities a way to deduct more than the current SALT deduction limitation of $10,000 by paying the tax directly through their pass-through entities.Ĭalifornia Assembly Bill 150 establishes the Small Business Relief Act which allows qualified pass-through entities to elect to pay and deduct a pass-through entity tax of 9.3% on qualified net income. In July of 2021, Governor Newsom signed California Assembly Bill 150 into law, which is California’s solution to the SALT limitation. Since the passing of the TCJA you can only deduct $10,000, effectively losing a deduction $12,000. Prior to the TCJA you could deduct the combined total of $22,000.
For example, let’s say your annual property taxes were $12,000 and your income taxes were $10,000. The TCJA limited this deduction to $10,000 total. Prior to the TCJA, individual taxpayers were able to personally deduct 100% of the state and local taxes they paid as an itemized deduction on their personal tax returns.
Following the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), passed in December of 2017, high tax states such as New York, New Jersey and California have been working on legislation that would reduce the impact of the newly enacted state and local tax (“SALT”) deduction limitation.
