Bill > A01422

This bill amends the New York State Real Property Tax Law to allow other qualifying members of a household, not just the head of the household, to qualify the household for the disability rent increase exemption. The bill defines a "qualifying member of the household" as a person with a disability who is not the head of the household but permanently resides in the dwelling unit. It also defines the term "relative" for the purposes of this exemption. The bill seeks to expand eligibility for the disability rent increase exemption to include more members of a household.
