BILL · 1991–92 SESSION

HB 1642: Senior citizen tax relief

Modifying the definition of disposable income for senior citizen tax relief.

Summary

  • Capital gain from the sale of a principal residence is no longer added to federal adjusted gross income in the income calculation for the senior citizen property tax exemption program. This exemption only covers that portion of capital gain not taxed by the federal Internal Revenue Code because the capital gain is transferred to a new principal residence.
