New Mexico income basis and limits
State taxable income after the listed deductions or exemptions.
Subtract the actual 2026 federal standard deduction. The one-self low/middle-income exemption is $2,500 less 15% of AGI above $20,000, with a zero floor and $36,667 eligibility ceiling.
The separately eligible comprehensive rebate keeps the original fixed income bands and indexes rebate dollars. It is $47 at $30,000 modified gross income and stops above $36,000. Final-return lookup and line rounding remain separate.
Personal estimates remain limited to $30,000–$200,000 ordinary wages; a schedule does not expand the supported profile.
