Straight From the House's Mouth

This morning, we were notifed of House bill 687 commonly known as " Tax Credit for Children With Disabilities." This bill is scheduled to be heard by the House on Tuesday, June 23rd at 11am in room 643 of the Legislative Office Building.

This is what they say:

"House Bill 687 creates a new tax credit for parents of children with special needs who choose to educate those children in a nonpublic school (including home schools) or in a public school at which they must pay tuition. The credit amount is set at $3,000 per semester, up to two semesters per year (a maximum of $6,000 for a full academic or taxable year). The credit is refundable and is capped at the associated tuition cost. Initial eligibility depends on spending a year in public school. "

This information is available to the public, so please contact your Representatives with any questions.
