HB 5066 Connecticut House · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING PERSONAL INCOME TAX DEDUCTIONS FOR SENIORS.

HB 5066 would adjust the income threshold for senior citizens' personal income tax deductions to automatically increase each year based on inflation. This change, affecting seniors who qualify for tax deductions, ensures the threshold keeps pace with rising living costs. The bill amends Section 12-701 of the general statutes to require this annual inflation adjustment. It directly impacts how much income seniors can earn before losing eligibility for the deduction.
