AI Summary
This bill proposes to eliminate the individual income tax in South Carolina for tax years beginning after 2024. Specifically, the legislation would add a new section to the South Carolina Code (Section 12-6-511) stating that no tax will be imposed on the taxable income of individuals, estates, and trusts starting in 2025. The bill would simultaneously repeal several existing sections of law related to income tax rates, tax brackets, and annual adjustments to those brackets, including Sections 12-6-510, 12-6-515, 12-6-520, and 12-6-545. This means that any provisions requiring income tax collection, filing, or withholding would no longer be in effect. The act would take effect upon the Governor's approval and would first apply to tax years beginning after 2024, effectively eliminating personal income tax in South Carolina from the 2025 tax year forward.
