Smarter New Jersey Tax Planning

New Jersey tax planning usually starts with the BAIT election, the Corporation Business Tax and multi-state issues for owners and staff in New York. We model the combined result before elections are due.

Business Alternative Income Tax

BAIT lets pass-through entities pay tax at the entity level, often creating a federal deduction. We model the benefit before electing.

New York Commuter Issues

Many owners live in New Jersey and work in New York, or the reverse. We handle credits so income is not taxed twice.

Sales Tax at 6.625%

New Jersey taxes many goods and some services. We set up collection, including Urban Enterprise Zone rates where they apply.
