New York Governor Kathy Hochul just released her 2022-23 draft Executive Budget which details New York's spending priorities for the next year. The Executive Branch of New York's government has a long list of items that they are looking to fund this year. You can find a nice summary of those priorities right here.
The New York State operating budget is estimated to increase the state by approximately 3.1% compared to last year. That amounts to a roughly $3 billion increase from the last budget. A large chunk of that increase is being covered by assistance from the federal government thanks to funds received from the various COVID-19 assistance programs, but unfortunately, that aid doesn't cover everything.
Current state income tax rates range from 4% to approximately 8.8%. Starting with the 2021 state budget, the rate brackets have changed and increased to range from 4% to roughly 10.9%.
The rates are mostly flat for lower-income New Yorkers and will decrease for middle-income residents. However, the personal income tax rates for higher-income New Yorkers are going up quite a bit, with the highest earners paying almost a full 2% more.
