Revise laws to reduce the age dependent children may be claimed on their parents income tax returns

This bill (LC 1227) proposed changing state tax law to lower the age limit for children to be claimed as dependents on parents' income tax returns. It would have directly affected parents filing state taxes who currently claim children over the new age threshold. The bill was drafted but never advanced beyond the drafting stage, dying in process on May 24, 2025. As it was never enacted, no concrete policy changes were implemented.
