AB442,1,3
1An Act to amend 71.64 (8) (b) of the statutes;
relating to: the amount of the
2exemption from income tax withholding requirements for employes of a county
3fair association.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, in general, every employer must withhold from an employe's
wages an amount that is determined by the department of revenue according to
withholding tables that are prepared by the department. Current law exempts from
this withholding requirement any county fair association, with regard to an employe
who receives less than $100 annually in wages or salary from the association.
This bill increases the exemption amount to $300.
This bill will be referred to the joint survey committee on tax exemptions for a
detailed analysis, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
