What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the school property tax rent credit may be claimed by an

individual for property taxes paid on the claimant's principal dwelling, or rent

constituting property taxes paid on the claimant's principal dwelling, during the

taxable year for which the credit is claimed. The credit, which may be claimed up

to the amount of the claimant's tax liability, is 12 percent of the first $2,500 of

property taxes, or rent constituting property taxes ($300), paid or 12 percent of the

first $1,250 of property taxes, or rent constituting property taxes ($150), paid by a

married person filing separately.

For a claimant who reaches the age of 65 before the close of the taxable year to

which his or her claim relates, this bill increases the maximum credit which may be

claimed to 12 percent of the first $5,000 of property taxes, or rent constituting

property taxes ($600), paid or 12 percent of the first $2,500 of property taxes, or rent

constituting property taxes ($300), paid by a married person filing separately. The

bill first applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2008.
