LB 182 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change provisions relating to the Affordable Housing Tax Credit Act and the Child Care Tax Credit Act

LB 182 amends Nebraska's Affordable Housing Tax Credit Act and Child Care Tax Credit Act to clarify how tax credits can be used. It allows developers of affordable housing projects to transfer or sell their allocated tax credits to other taxpayers (like investors), and expands permitted uses of child care tax credits beyond their original scope. The bill specifically updates rules for allocating credits to pass-through entities (like partnerships or LLCs) and ensures credits only apply to projects completed after 2018. These changes directly affect affordable housing developers and childcare providers seeking tax credit benefits.

MODERATE
The bill was amended to add a new co-sponsor, adjust the bill's title to clarify it defines rather than redefines certain terms, and reorganize the definitions section to include a new definition for 'pass-through entity' while renumbering subsequent definitions. These changes clarify the bill's scope and improve the organization of legal definitions without altering substantive policy.
