You can't deduct your PFD unless you are "rich" and itemize deductions. Most people use the standard deduction

Get those out of state workers…and WE ALASKANS pay an income tax? Taxing 10,000 slope workers at the net proposed income tax of 1.5% making 100,000 a year nets the state $15 Million. Creating a new income tax state bureaucracy with 100 state workers making $100K a year costs $10 Million. This makes no sense, and then I pay an income tax as do my kids and grandkids ..forever.
