5. a. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (3) of subsection b. of section 3 of P.L.2019, c.320 (C.54A:12-3), a taxpayer shall be allowed a refundable gross income tax credit, pursuant to the "New Jersey Gross Income Tax Act," N.J.S.54A:1-1 et seq., if the taxpayer is a member of a pass-through entity that elects to owe and pay the pass-through business alternative income tax determined pursuant to section 3 of P.L.2019, c.320 (C.54A:12-3) for the taxable year.
For each pass-through entity of which the taxpayer is a member, the amount of the credit shall equal the member's pro rata share of the tax paid pursuant to section 3 of P.L.2019, c.320 (C.54A:12-3), which credit shall be applied against the gross income tax liability of the member in the taxable year.
b. The credit allowed by this section shall be available after the application of all other credits allowed by law and claimed by the taxpayer in the taxable year.
c. For a taxpayer that applies the credit available pursuant to this section to the tax due pursuant to N.J.S.54A:1-1, if the credit exceeds the amount of tax otherwise due, that amount of excess shall be an overpayment for the purposes of N.J.S.54A:9-7; provided however, that subsection (f) of N.J.S.54A:9-7 shall not apply.
d. The credit allowed to any trust or estate pursuant to this section may be allocated to beneficiaries or be used against the tax liability of the estate or trust, in accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the director.
