Nebraska Tax Planning Tip
Nebraska imposes graduated state income tax on both individuals and corporations, with top individual rates reaching 6.64% and corporate rates at 7.25% on income over $100,000. S-Corp and partnership owners should analyze whether pass-through income creates a lower combined tax burden than C-Corp status. Nebraska also offers the Nebraska Advantage Act with tax credits for businesses investing $1 million+ and creating 10+ jobs, which can significantly offset state tax liability for qualifying Omaha companies.
