Summary

The Fair Share Act lets any New York city add a 2% tax on the annual taxable income of city residents, estates and trusts that file returns exceeding $1 million. The tax can be enacted each year if the local law is passed by July 31 and reported to the state department. It is administered like other city taxes and takes effect immediately.
