        AN ACT to amend the tax law, in relation to the child and dependent care
          credit

          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:

     1    Section  1.  Paragraph  1  of subsection (c) of section 606 of the tax
     2  law, as amended by section 1 of part M of chapter  63  of  the  laws  of
     3  2000, is amended to read as follows:
     4    (1)  A  taxpayer shall be allowed a credit as provided herein equal to
     5  the applicable percentage of the credit allowable under section  twenty-
     6  one  of  the  internal  revenue  code for the same taxable year (without
     7  regard to whether the taxpayer in fact claimed  the  credit  under  such
     8  section  twenty-one  for  such  taxable year). The applicable percentage
     9  shall be the sum of (i) twenty percent and (ii) a multiplier  multiplied
    10  by  a  fraction. For taxable years beginning in nineteen hundred ninety-
    11  six and nineteen hundred ninety-seven, the numerator  of  such  fraction
    12  shall  be the lesser of (i) four thousand dollars or (ii) fourteen thou-
    13  sand dollars less the New York adjusted gross  income  for  the  taxable
    14  year,  provided, however, the numerator shall not be less than zero. For
    15  the taxable year beginning in nineteen hundred ninety-eight, the numera-
    16  tor of such fraction shall  be  the  lesser  of  (i)  thirteen  thousand
    17  dollars or (ii) thirty thousand dollars less the New York adjusted gross
    18  income  for the taxable year, provided, however, the numerator shall not
    19  be less than zero. For taxable years beginning in nineteen hundred nine-
    20  ty-nine, the numerator of such fraction  shall  be  the  lesser  of  (i)
    21  fifteen  thousand  dollars  or  (ii) fifty thousand dollars less the New
    22  York adjusted gross income for the taxable year, provided, however,  the
    23  numerator shall not be less than zero. For taxable years beginning after
    24  nineteen  hundred  ninety-nine,  the numerator of such fraction shall be
    25  the lesser of (i) fifteen thousand dollars or (ii)  sixty-five  thousand

                                                                   LBD03480-01-3

        A. 3897                             2

     1  dollars  less  the  New York adjusted gross income for the taxable year,
     2  provided, however, the numerator shall not be less than zero. The denom-
     3  inator of such fraction shall be four thousand dollars for taxable years
     4  beginning  in  nineteen  hundred ninety-six and nineteen hundred ninety-
     5  seven, thirteen thousand dollars for the taxable year beginning in nine-
     6  teen hundred ninety-eight, and  fifteen  thousand  dollars  for  taxable
     7  years  beginning  after  nineteen  hundred  ninety-eight. The multiplier
     8  shall be ten percent for taxable years  beginning  in  nineteen  hundred
     9  ninety-six,  forty  percent  for  taxable  years  beginning  in nineteen
    10  hundred ninety-seven, and eighty percent  for  taxable  years  beginning
    11  after  nineteen  hundred  ninety-seven.  Provided,  however, for taxable
    12  years beginning after nineteen hundred ninety-nine, for a  person  whose
    13  New York adjusted gross income is less than forty thousand dollars, such
    14  applicable  percentage  shall  be equal to (i) one hundred percent, plus
    15  (ii) ten percent multiplied by a fraction whose numerator shall  be  the
    16  lesser  of  (i)  fifteen thousand dollars or (ii) forty thousand dollars
    17  less the New York adjusted gross income for the taxable  year,  provided
    18  such  numerator shall not be less than zero, and whose denominator shall
    19  be fifteen thousand dollars.    Provided,  however,  for  taxable  years
    20  beginning  on  or  after  January  first, two thousand twenty-three, the
    21  applicable percentage shall be one hundred ten percent for all New  York
    22  adjusted  gross incomes up to fifty thousand dollars. Provided, further,
    23  that if the reversion event, as defined in this paragraph,  occurs,  the
    24  applicable  percentage  shall,  for taxable years ending on or after the
    25  date on which the reversion event  occurred,  be  determined  using  the
    26  rules  specified in this paragraph applicable to taxable years beginning
    27  in nineteen hundred ninety-nine. The reversion event shall be deemed  to
    28  have  occurred  on  the  date on which federal action, including but not
    29  limited to, administrative, statutory or regulatory changes,  materially
    30  reduces  or eliminates New York state's allocation of the federal tempo-
    31  rary assistance for needy families block grant,  or  materially  reduces
    32  the ability of the state to spend federal temporary assistance for needy
    33  families  block  grant  funds  for  the credit for certain household and
    34  dependent care services necessary for gainful  employment  or  to  apply
    35  state  general  fund  spending  on  the credit for certain household and
    36  dependent care services necessary  for  gainful  employment  toward  the
    37  temporary  assistance  for  needy  families  block  grant maintenance of
    38  effort requirement, and the commissioner of the office of temporary  and
    39  disability  assistance  shall  certify  the  date  of  such event to the
    40  commissioner, the director of the division of the budget, the speaker of
    41  the assembly and the temporary president of the senate.
    42    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to taxable
    43  years beginning on or after January 1, 2023.
