AB 2690, as amended, Burke. Personal Income Tax. Employment Development Department: Franchise Tax Board: report: payroll charge.
Existing law requires the Employment Development Department within the Labor and Workforce Development Agency to administer various programs, including the state unemployment and disability compensation programs, and perform duties relating to income tax withholding. Existing law creates the Franchise Tax Board, which administers and collects income taxes.
This bill would require the Employment Development Department and the Franchise Tax Board to develop a written report, by July 1, 2019, to be submitted to the Legislature with recommendations for the enactment of a voluntary payroll charge imposed on employers.

The Personal Income Tax Law imposes taxes on taxable income, as provided. That law specifies that it applies to the taxable income of taxpayers received or accrued on or after January 1, 1935.

This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that provision of the Personal Income Tax Law.
