AN ACT CONCERNING THE PROPERTY TAX CREDIT AGAINST THE PERSONAL INCOME TAX FOR A PRIMARY RESIDENCE OR MOTOR VEHICLE.
HB 5061 would increase Connecticut's property tax credit against personal income tax for primary residences or motor vehicles. It raises the maximum credit from $300 to $1,000 per year, increases the minimum credit threshold, and expands eligibility by raising the income limits for qualifying residents. The bill directly affects Connecticut homeowners and vehicle owners who pay property tax and meet the updated income thresholds. This change would reduce eligible taxpayers' annual income tax bills by up to $1,000.
