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 instituting income tax reciprocity between Wisconsin and Minnesota. The study must determine the number of residents of 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 tax revenue that would be forgone by each state if reciprocity were instituted.

Under reciprocity, taxpayers must 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 taxable years 2020 and 2021 and any other information each DOR determines is necessary to complete the study. The results of the study must be submitted to the legislature and governor of each state no later than December 31, 2024.

Read the full summary

The bill also requires that any income tax reciprocity agreement between Wisconsin and Minnesota applies to wages, salaries, tips, and commissions received by persons who reside in this state or Minnesota for at least 183 days during their taxable years and return to their state of residence at least once per month; does not have an expiration or termination date; and is approved by both the governor and the Joint Committee on Finance. Under the bill, Wisconsin may not make a payment to Minnesota for any prior taxable years before the reciprocity agreement takes effect, and a reciprocity agreement may not be revised unless approved by JCF.
