Currently, the State of Alabama provides an incentive for job creation for unemployed persons through a $1,000 income tax credit for businesses that hire certain unemployed individuals.
This bill would provide an additional $1,000 income tax credit for job creation to an employer who hires a recently deployed, and now discharged, unemployed veteran; and further, would provide a $2,000 income tax credit for recently deployed and now discharged, unemployed veterans who start their own businesses.
