BOX 259 HONOLULU, HAWAII 96809 PHONE NO: (808) 587-1530 FAX NO: (808) 587-1584 HOUSE COMMlT~EE ON FINANCE TESTIMONY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF TAXATION REGARDING HB 1092 HD1 PROPOSED B RELATING TO TAXATION TESTIFIER: FREDERICK D. PABLO, DIRECTOR OF TAXATION (OR DESIGNEE) COMMITTEE: FIN DATE: FEBRUARY 25, 2011 TIME: 1:30PM POSITION: SUPPORT PART I AND II, OPPOSE PART III This measure amends the current law that excludes employer-funded pension income from income tax. It treats employer-funded pension income like all other income, similar to that of the federal tax code. It starts in the 2011 tax year. The Department of Taxation (Department) supports this measure. PART I: TAXATION OF PENSION INCOME FAIRNESS—This proposal makes taxation of pensioners more “even handed.” Currently, retirees without employer-funded pensions are taxed on their retirement income, such as 401K, dividends, rental income, and other sources of income. It is a fair tax policy to treat the taxation of employer-funded retirement income similar to the self-funded retirement income. The 1995-1997 and 2001-2003 Tax Review Commission recommended a phase in taxation of all pension income. Similarly, the 2005-2007 Tax Review Commission recommended conforming to the federal tax treatment of retirement income, excluding an annual base amount (e.g.: $50,000). Hawaii is one of only ten (or 20%) states that Department of Taxation Testimony HB 1092 HD1 Proposed B February 25, 2011 Page2of4 exclude all federal, state and local pension income from taxation1.
