Individual income tax: property tax credit; credit for disabled veteran or widow or widower of disabled veteran who rents or leases a homestead; provide for and exclude from cap. Amends secs. 522 & 530 of 1967 PA 281 (MCL 206. 522 & 206.530). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5275'25

HB 5272 proposes to create a new property tax credit for disabled veterans and surviving spouses (widows/widowers) of disabled veterans who rent or lease a home in Michigan. It amends Michigan’s income tax law to add this credit and specifically exclude it from the state’s income tax cap. This would directly benefit qualifying renters who are disabled veterans or surviving spouses, providing them with a tax reduction they currently cannot access under existing rules. The bill does not change other tax credits or the overall tax structure.
