Overview
This bill would allow New Jersey residents with a gross income of $85,000 or less to deduct certain college tuition and fees paid for themselves, their spouse, and their dependents from their state income tax. The deduction applies to tuition and fees paid at public or independently accredited higher education institutions recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education. This would provide a potential tax benefit to lower-income families seeking to further their education.
