Indians Subject To State Income Levy On Reservations
Albany up Indians on New York’s eight reservations face the state personal income tax regardless of where income arises. Attorney General Nathaniel J. Goldstein, in response to a request from the State Tax Commission, traced the shift from dependency to citizenship in 1924 and 1871. He ruled state tax power extends to Indians within state borders for purposes not opposed by treaty or federal law. The 1940 census shows 5,975 Indian residents on reservations statewide.
