S. 3696, 116th Congress — To Disregard Additional Unemployment Compensation

Summary

Senate bill 3696 of the 116th Congress, 2D Session, is a bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to disregard additional unemployment compensation for purposes of premium tax credit and cost-sharing subsidies. Cardin introduced it on May 12, 2020 with Van Hollen, Shaheen, Bennet, Brown, and Markey, and it was referred to the Committee on Finance. Adjusted gross income would be decreased by the amount of any Federal pandemic unemployment compensation paid to an individual under section 2104 of division A of the CARES Act during the taxable year. Subparagraph (A) would not apply to any taxable year beginning in 2020 or 2021, and the amendments apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2019.
