AB 2479: Personal income tax: employment credit.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified February 24, 2026

What AB 2479 does, verified February 24, 2026

The bill aims to make a nonsubstantive change to a provision in the personal income tax law. This provision allows a credit for hiring qualified full-time employees within a designated census tract or economic development area. The credit is equal to 35% of the qualified wages paid to those employees, multiplied by the applicable percentage for the taxable year. This change would not add new substance to the existing provision, but rather clarify or modify an existing rule.
