The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program
HB 6025 amends Florida's tax credit scholarship program by removing language requiring unused scholarship funds to revert to the state under specific conditions. The bill eliminates provisions that previously mandated funds to return to the state if a student's account became inactive for two years, if eligibility was denied due to fraud, or if a student remained unenrolled for 30 days. This change means scholarship funds remaining in a student's account after these scenarios will no longer automatically return to the state. The bill affects families enrolled in the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program who receive private school scholarships, but does not alter eligibility rules or scholarship amounts. It takes effect July 1, 2026.
