We overview them in 6 minutes. In a nutshell: 2013: 0.1% rate reduction for all 2015: Rate reductions for middle income ($21-70k) 2017: Rate reductions for low income (less than $21k) 2019: Rate reductions for middle and upper income ($38,000+) 2021: Combined tax brackets lowering almost all rates that included a 1% reduction to the top rate 2022: Tax credit up to $150 for individuals earning less than $101k and $300 for couples earning less than $202k (plus the acceleration of the previously approved 2021 tax cuts) Compared to a decade ago, Arkansas taxpayers are paying rates that are between 0.5% and 2.6% lower. The 2.6% decrease is for the lower income tax bracket on the portion of income between $21,000 and $23,000. Hundreds of thousands of additional low-income Arkansans no longer pay any income taxes. read more>>
