Family tax diverts part of applicable positive income into your family's shared bank. It is distinct from city sales tax, player-market fees and Capitol tax.
The configurable family rate is between 5% and 20%. Changing it requires the Family Bank permission. The displayed rate is the family base rate; Leadership can give an earner a personal relative discount.
At maximum Leadership, a 10% base rate becomes 9%, before rounding the cash deduction. This is a 10% reduction of the rate, not ten percentage points removed. Your discount does not change the family's rate for everyone else.
Verified collection paths include positive crime rewards, career shift cash, NPC drug sales, Garage vehicle sales, OC payouts and player-market sale proceeds. This is not a blanket rule that every transfer or reward is taxed.
Player-market sales deduct the market fee first and family tax from the remaining proceeds. Applicable crime and career routes apply Capitol tax after family tax. Outstanding default debt can reduce the final cash received after other deductions.
Automatic family-tax entries record the earning member and source in the family bank ledger. Compare gross rewards with net cash when planning income.
