The original version set the effective date for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2024, but the new version applies retroactively to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2023. This means eligible retirees can claim the tax deduction for the 2024 tax year instead of waiting until 2025.

The bill's scope remains the same regarding who qualifies for the deduction, but the timeline for when the benefit applies has been extended backward by one year.
