On the other hand, New York excludes $20,000 of annuity and retirement benefits for those who are almost 60 years old, but also the government pension income from the United States, New York State, or New York localities.

In comparison, California only exempts railroad retirement income, and Colorado “raises it” to $24,000. Some states toss the taxpayer’s income right into the middle of the equation. In Connecticut, 42% of retirement income is taken from state income tax if you’re not married and have an adjusted gross income of less than $75,000.

    No it is that the politicians and lobbyist make so much income they think all the lower level job people include retiree have the same amount of disposable income so they take care of their life style and the hell with those who pay their salaries. So get rid of the many lobbyist and their pushing agenda paying politicians and the politicians might just working for the tax payer again. know what a dollar will by when you only have a dollar.

    Democrats love to TAX productive Americans so they can BUY the votes of unproductive people with handouts. The Hasidic n NY have 8 and more children and SCAM every government program by not being married by the state (only married by their rabbi) so they can claim to be ‘unwed mothers’. The whore politicians say nothing because they want their ‘block vote’.

    New Mexico exempts $35K of military retirement benefits from state income tax. Also, any portion of Social Security benefits taxed by the federal government, is exempt from state income tax. If you live to be 100years old, you are also exempt from all state income taxes!
