Bill Summary
This bill extends the veteran's gross income tax exemption to spouses of deceased veterans. Currently, veterans are allowed a $6,000 exemption, which can be taken as a deduction from their income, for purposes of calculating their State gross income tax liability. If a veteran dies during a taxable year, the spouse of the veteran is allowed the exemption for that taxable year if filing a joint return. However, the spouse is not allowed the exemption in subsequent years. Under this bill, the spouse of the deceased veteran would be allowed to continue to claim the exemption until the spouse remarries.
AI Summary
This bill extends the veteran's gross income tax exemption of $6,000 to the spouses of deceased veterans. Currently, the exemption can only be claimed by the veteran for the taxable year in which they die, but this bill allows the spouse to continue claiming the exemption in subsequent years until they remarry. The bill amends the existing law on personal exemptions and deductions to include this provision for spouses of deceased veterans.
