asked

I have a single member S Corp and I have questions about the New Jersey Pass Through Entity Tax (PTE). Specifically, I want to know if the PTE tax payments count as an expense in the books and if they further reduce the overall income/profit of the S Corp, providing additional tax gains at the federal and state level. Additionally, I need to understand if we need to consider the PTE taxes paid to NJ state as income for federal tax purposes since we will get a credit back for these taxes from the state when filing personal income tax. Lastly, I want to know if it makes a difference whether we elect for PTE tax or not from my S Corp as a tax-saving vehicle, given that I am already close to $10k in NJ state income taxes from my 2020 W2, Capital Gains, Rents, and Interest income.
