                                BILL NUMBER:S613

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to amend the tax law, in relation to providing employers a tax credit
for senior dependent care provided to employees
and providing taxpayers with a credit for their own payments for such
care

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
Provides employers with a tax credit
for care to adult dependents of employees and expenditures to provide
dependent employees with a similar credit.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
Section 1: Amends Tax Law section 210 to add a new subdivision 43 that
creates a income tax credit of up to $1000 per adult care recipient
to any employer who provides or pays for adult dependent care for the
adult dependents of its employees during business hours.

Section 2: Amends Tax Law Section 606 to add a new subsection (ss) to
allow a taxpayer credit against the tax imposed in an amount not in
excess of $1000 for each adult day care recipient, which care must be
provided in an eligible facility.

Section 3 and 4 - The commissioners of taxation and finance and

children and family services shall promulgate any and all rules and
regulations and take any other measure necessary to implement this
act on its effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:
An increasing number of New Yorkers are relying on
adult care services to provide care for their adult dependents while
they work outside the home. These services will become even more
common as the number of senior citizens in New York continues to grow
over the next several years. Just as child day care services have
become an essential element of our state economy and help millions of
New Yorkers to balance the needs of career and family, adult care
services provide an equally important service to the growing
population of New Yorkers who balance careers with caring for elderly
or disabled relatives. This tax credit would help ease the financial
burdens on caregivers and help ensure that dependent senior citizens
receive the quality care and services they need. It would also
encourage employers to offer adult care services to their employees.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
2005-06 A.2781 Ways & Means
2007-08 A.5136 Ways & Means
2009-10 S.6222 Investigations & Government Operations

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect on the 1st of January next succeeding the
date on which it shall have become a law and shall apply to taxable
years commencing on and after such effective date; provided, however,
that effective immediately, the addition, amendment and/or repeal of any
rule or regulation necessary for the implementation of this act on its


effective date are authorized and directed to be made and completed
on or before such effective date.

                                BILL NUMBER:S613B

TITLE OF BILL:
An act to amend the tax law, in relation to establishing business fran-
chise and personal income tax credits for employers which provide care
for the elderly dependents of their employees during work hours and
establishing a personal income tax credit for the provision of care to
the elderly dependent of a taxpayer during work hours

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
Provides employers with a tax credit for care to adult dependents of
employees and expenditures to provide dependent employees with a similar
credit.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
Section 1: Amends Tax Law section 210 to add a new subdivision 45 that
creates a income tax credit of up to $1000 per adult care recipient to
any employer who provides or pays for adult dependent care for the adult
dependents of its employees during business hours.

Section 2: Amends Tax Law section 606 to add a new subsection (uu) to
allow a taxpayer credit against the tax. imposed in an amount not in
excess of $1000 for each adult day care recipient, which care must be
provided in an eligible facility.

Section 3 and 4: The commissioners of taxation and finance and children

and family services shall promulgate any and all rules and regulations
and take any other measure necessary to implement this act on its effec-
tive date.

JUSTIFICATION:
An increasing number of New Yorkers are relying on adult care services
to provide care for their adult dependents while they work outside the
home. These services will become even more common as the number of
senior citizens in New York continues to grow over the next several
years. Just as child day care services have become an essential element
of our state economy and help millions of New Yorkers to balance the
needs of career and family, adult care services provide an equally
important service to the growing population of New Yorkers who balance
careers with caring for elderly or disabled relatives. This tax credit
would help ease the financial burdens on caregivers and help ensure that
dependent senior citizens receive the quality care and services they
need. It would also encourage employers to offer adult care services to
their employees.

2005-06: A.2781 Ways & Means
2007-08: A.5136 Ways & Means
2009-10: S.6222 Investigations & Government Operations

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect on the 1st of January next succeeding the
date on which it shall have become a law and shall apply to taxable
years commencing on and after such effective date; provided, however,
that effective immediately, the commissioners of taxation and
finance, and children and family services are authorized and directed
to promulgate any rules and regulations and take any other measures
necessary to implement the provisions of this act on its effective
date.
