What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires the Department of Revenue, in conjunction with the Minnesota Department of Revenue, to conduct a study on the effects of resuming income tax reciprocity between Wisconsin and Minnesota. The study must determine the number of residents in each state who earn income in the other state, the total amount of income earned in each state by such taxpayers, and the amount of revenue that would be foregone by each state if reciprocity were to be reinstituted.
Under reciprocity, taxpayers are required to pay taxes only in their state of residence on income earned in the other state.

The study is to be based on income tax data for tax year 2010, and any other information each Department of Revenue determines is necessary to complete the study. The results of the study must be submitted to the legislatures and governors of each state no later than December 31, 2011.
