AI Summary

This bill amends Chapter 62 of the general laws to relieve minors under the age of 18 from income tax obligations. The current law requires residents and non-residents over the age of 18 to be taxed on their taxable income, but this bill proposes to strike the reference to residents and non-residents over the age of 18, effectively exempting minors from income tax requirements.
