Overview
The state of New York recently passed budget bill 4008 into law, which modified the Metropolitan Commuter Transportation Mobility Tax effective July 1, 2023. It is still a payroll expense tax that is applicable to certain employers within the state of New York.
Previously, New York’s Metropolitan Commuter Transportation Mobility Tax included all the covered jurisdictions into one cluster with tiered rates based on the employer’s payroll expense. The rate breakdown reflected the following below:
