Brooke Pauley and Rob Rosano in their commentary of Jan. 28 and Mike Basile in his commentary of Jan. 22 promoted giving our younger citizens and new college graduates special West Virginia personal income tax breaks. The proposal from the Charleston Regional Chamber of Commerce "Brains for Business" legislative program would provide citizens under 40 a $500 per year tax credit on interest paid on student loan debt and further provide that the first $25,000 of earned income would be exempt from state income taxes for the first two years after college graduation.

Many U.S. cities and towns have a personal income tax, and so should New Haven. As a city resident who works in New Haven, I have many co-workers who live out of town and constantly complain about New Haven. They are making a decent living here, then running to the suburbs, never spending one red cent here. Let's tax them 1 percent and help our budget and keep our city workers working.

New York State Tax Law imposes a personal income tax for a part-year resident individual based on the individual's taxable income that is derived from New York sources. The New York State Legislature recently enacted Senate Bill S7561, which amended the rules under section 639 of the Tax Law to address the situation when a partner or S corporation shareholder changes domicile or residency during the tax year.
