From January 1, 2019, China's individual income tax The threshold was raised from 3500 yuan to 5000 yuan, greatly reducing the tax burden of people with lower middle income.
Just recently, Zhang Xuewu, deputy to the National People's Congress and chairman of Yanjin Shops, proposed to raise the threshold of individual income tax to 8000 yuan, so as to increase the actual income of ordinary people and boost consumer confidence.
Zhang Xuewu said that for low-income people, the marginal impact of individual income tax is small. Raising the minimum wage standard and increasing individual subsidies can better promote consumption.
For the middle-income group, we can consider expanding the scope of "special additional deduction" of individual income tax, raising the standard of "special additional deduction" and other ways to use tax reduction to increase after tax income to promote consumption.
In fact, in recent years, experts have constantly raised the threshold of individual income tax.
For example, Ma Xiaohe, the former vice president of the China Academy of Macroeconomics, suggested that it should be raised to 8000 yuan.
Also, Zong Qinghou, who had just passed away, proposed to raise it to 1600 yuan as early as 2004, set it at 5000 yuan in 2008, and thought that 5000 yuan was still too low in 2018. "The wage earners do not need to collect personal tax, so that consumption can be promoted".
Since 2021, Dong Mingzhu has repeatedly suggested that the threshold of individual income tax should be raised to 10000 yuan.
