In this paragraph, “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.

Earned income includes gains, other than any gain which is treated under any provision of chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code as gain from the sale or exchange of a capital asset, and includes net earnings derived from the sale or disposition of, the transfer of any interest in, or the licensing of the use of property, other than goodwill, by an individual whose personal efforts created such property. 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, or received as deferred compensation. 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. 71.07(6)(am)1m.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. 71.07(6)(am)2.2.
