U.S. will resume sales tax exemption for apparel

The United States studied the extended County Magistrate Gregory. Edwards may reflect businessmen and residents, and on Sunday, April 1, 2012, clothing under $110 may be tax-free again.

In the past two years, in an effort to increase state income, the New York State legislature set the 2010-11 state budget in August 2010, which abolishes sales tax exemptions for apparel and footwear that are less than $110. By amending the sales and use tax laws, the New York State legislature has created a three-stage change in sales tax exemptions, which has brought New York state counties back to sales tax exemptions and restored to their previous tax rates.

In the first stage, from October 1, 2010 to March 31, 2011, the consumption tax on clothing and footwear was abolished. This is the New York State Budget Bureau that raised $330 million for the fiscal year 2010-11.

The second phase, from April 1, 2011 to March 31, 2012, provides for the exemption of tax on clothing and shoes that are worth less than $55 each. This is because the State Budget Bureau estimates that it will raise US$2.11 billion in revenue for the fiscal year 2011-12.

The third phase, starting on April 1, 2012, will restore the original tax exemption for clothing and shoes with a value less than $110.

Currently, New York State expropriates 4% state sales tax on all clothing and shoes that exceed tax exemption for sales tax, and the county does not bear any county-level sales tax on any clothing or footwear items.
