AB881,106 Section 106. 71.07 (6) (am) 1. of the statutes is amended to read:

AB881,20,7 71.07 (6) (am) 1. In this paragraph For purposes of subd. 1m., “earned income" means qualified earned income, as defined in section 221 (b) of the internal revenue code as amended to December 31, 1985, plus employee business expenses under section 62 (2) (B) to (D) of that code, allocable to Wisconsin under s. 71.04, plus amounts received by the individual for services performed in the employ of the individual's spouse minus the amount of disability income excluded under s. 71.05 (6) (b) 4. and minus any other amount not subject to tax under this chapter wages, salaries, or professional fees, and other amounts received as compensation for personal services actually rendered, but does not include that part of the compensation derived by the taxpayer for personal services rendered by him or her to a corporation which represents a distribution of earnings or profits rather than a reasonable allowance as compensation for the personal services actually rendered. In the case of a taxpayer engaged in a trade or business in which both personal services and capital are material income-producing factors, under federal regulations, a reasonable allowance as compensation for the personal services rendered by the taxpayer shall be considered as earned income. Earned income does not include any amount not included in gross income, received as a pension or annuity, paid or distributed out of an individual retirement plan (within the meaning of section 7701 (a) (37) of the Internal Revenue Code), received as deferred compensation, or received for services, not in the course of the employer's trade or business, or domestic service in a private home of the employer, performed by an individual in the employ of his or her spouse. Earned income is computed notwithstanding the fact that each spouse owns an undivided one-half interest in the whole of the marital property. A marital property agreement or unilateral statement under ch. 766 transferring income between spouses has no effect in computing earned income under this paragraph.

Note: This Section incorporates the text of the definition of “earned income” from the Internal Revenue Code.

AB881,107 Section 107. 71.07 (6) (am) 1m. of the statutes is created to read:

AB881,20,16 71.07 (6) (am) 1m. In this paragraph, “qualified earned income” means an amount equal to the excess of the earned income of the spouse for the taxable year, over an amount equal to the sum of the deductions described in paragraphs (1), (2) (B), (C), and (E), (6), (7), and (12) of section 62 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code to the extent such deductions are properly allocable to or chargeable against earned income, allocable to Wisconsin under s. 71.04, minus the amount of disability income excluded under s. 71.05 (6) (b) 4. and minus any other amount not subject to tax under this chapter.

Note: This Section incorporates the text of the definition of “qualified earned income” from the Internal Revenue Code. Because this Section defines “qualified earned income” separately from “earned income,” Section 108 also replaces the phrase “earned income” with “qualified earned income.”

AB881,108 Section 108 . 71.07 (6) (am) 2. d. of the statutes is amended to read:

AB881,20,20 71.07 (6) (am) 2. d. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 2000, 3 percent of the qualified earned income of the spouse with the lower qualified earned income, but not more than $480.

AB881,110 Section 110 . 71.07 (9e) (a) of the statutes is repealed.

Note: Sections 110 to 114 , 116, and 117 repeal statutes that are obsolete because they apply to taxable years that begin before January 1, 1994, 1995, 1996, or 2011.

The percentage shall be the same percentage as is specified in par. (af), based on the number of qualifying children that the individual has 4 percent if the individual has one qualifying child, 14 percent if the individual has 2 qualifying children, or 43 percent if the individual has 3 or more qualifying children.

Note: This Section incorporates the contents of s. 71.07 (9e) (af), 2017 Stats., because the latter statute was repealed by Section 113.
