Provides gross income tax credit of up to $500 to taxpayers who utilize high impact tutoring.

This bill provides New Jersey taxpayers with a refundable tax credit of up to $500 per year for costs paid to high-impact tutors. It directly affects individual taxpayers who use tutoring services proven to significantly improve student learning through research, as defined in the bill. The credit applies to the tax year the tutoring is received, and if it reduces a taxpayer’s total tax liability to zero, the remaining credit amount is paid as a cash refund. The credit is limited to one claim per married couple filing separately.
