I barely qualified for a previous state credit within $1000 of the cutoff, right before more than doubling my income during the pandemic industry craziness. I think cutoffs that don't scale or prorate somehow are so ridiculous. There's no reason to make things all-or-nothing. The criteria should still give you something if you're rich, even if it's $1, so everyone else in the band doesn't get screwed.
