AI Summary

This bill provides equal stimulus checks to immigrant taxpayers who filed a Massachusetts income tax return for the 2019 tax year using an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) and are ineligible for federal recovery rebates. The bill allows for a refundable tax credit of $1,800 (or $3,600 for joint filers) plus $1,100 per qualifying child, with the credit being phased out for higher-income taxpayers. The bill requires the Massachusetts Commissioner of Revenue to disburse the refunds electronically or by mail if necessary, and authorizes the Commissioner to promulgate regulations to implement the legislation.
