JOBS TAX CREDITS

Picture
Jobs tax credits are credits that can be applied to state income tax to reduce an employer’s income tax liability. These credits are earned by certain types of businesses that create and sustain new jobs in Mississippi. The following businesses qualify for these credits:
  • Manufacturers
  • Wholesalers
  • Processors
  • Research and development facilities
  • Distributors
  • Warehouses

In addition, the following businesses qualify upon receiving a designation by the Mississippi Development Authority:
  • Air and transportation maintenance facilities
  • Telecommunications companies
  • Data and information processing companies
  • Computer software development enterprises
  • Recreational facilities that impact tourism
  • Resort hotels having a minimum of 150 rooms
  • Movie industry studios
  • Technology-intensive facilities
PROGRAM FACTS 
Jobs Tax Credits are calculated as a percentage of eligible payroll each year for five years, based on job location and wages subject to state income tax. The credits are taken in years two through six after the new jobs are created.  To be eligible for this credit, the employer must create and maintain an annual average employment of the minimum number of jobs required based on the development classification of the county.

County Classification                                Minimum Number of New Jobs Created                              Credit Per Job Jobs                      
Tier III                                                             10 or more                                                                       10% of Payroll
Tier II                                                               15 or more                                                                          5% of Payroll
Tier I                                                                20 or more                                                                          2.5% of Payroll

Credits can be used to offset up to fifty percent of a business’s income tax liability, and unused jobs tax credits can be carried forward up to five years.

JOB TRAINING OPTION 

Legislation approved by the Mississippi Legislature in 2013 allows companies that expand or locate in the state to either take the existing Jobs Tax Credit or monetize that credit to use for job training. 

When companies that are eligible for the Jobs Tax Credit opt to monetize the credit, MDA provides job training grants to a community or junior college, public university or local workforce investment area in the state to pay costs incurred in training or retraining employees. Grants may cover 75 percent of the costs of training or retraining employees, not to exceed $1,000 per job in Tier I counties, $1,500 per job in Tier II counties and $2,000 per job in Tier III counties.

Companies must elect to utilize a job training grant before creating any eligible jobs, and a company must choose between the Jobs Tax Credit or the job training grant option. 

For further details, see the Mississippi Tax Incentives, Exemptions, and Credits on the Mississippi Department of Revenue website.
