Welcome to the March 2018 issue of the Aprio State & Local Tax (SALT) Newsletter.
With dozens of different taxes imposed by the 50 states (and thousands of local jurisdictions), we recognize how challenging it is to keep up with current issues and developments. This newsletter is designed to provide insights on developments in state and local taxes including new legislation, regulations, rulings and cases addressing issues such as corporate and personal income taxes, sales and use taxes, nexus, franchise/net worth taxes, etc.
This issue of the newsletter contains articles concerning (i) Georgia legislation in response to federal tax reform, (ii) a summary of the new Georgia Quality Jobs Tax Credit rules, (iii) a New Jersey Tax Court decision holding that a partnership can’t be held liable for the corporate business tax obligations of its corporate partner, (iv) the applicability of Texas’ occasional sale rule to a like-kind exchange of aircraft, and (v) an Indiana Letter of Findings explaining when the state’s repealed throwback rule applies to out-of-state sales.
