Senator Smallwood-Cuevas proposes extending California's tax exclusion for guaranteed income pilot program payments through July 1, 2031, maintaining financial support mechanisms for program participants. The measure continues the current policy that allows recipients to exclude these payments from their gross income calculations for state tax purposes.
The legislation maintains the existing framework while adjusting the sunset dates, with the exclusion becoming inoperative on July 1, 2031, and formal repeal taking effect January 1, 2032. This represents a five-year extension from the current expiration date of July 1, 2026. The bill's findings note that the extension aims to continue support for vulnerable Californians, though no data collection requirements are included in the measure.
As a tax levy, the legislation would take effect immediately upon enactment, requiring a majority vote for passage. The measure makes no changes to program operations or eligibility requirements, focusing solely on extending the tax treatment of payments received through qualified pilot programs.
