Bill Summary
CONCERNING THE CREATION OF INCENTIVES AGAINST THE STATE INCOME TAX FOR STUDENTS PURSUING POST-SECONDARY CREDENTIALS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
AI Summary
This bill creates a refundable tax credit for eligible students attending Colorado public institutions of higher education in their first two years. The credit is equal to the tuition and fees paid, minus any scholarships or grants received, with an income eligibility limit of $90,000 for the student's household. The bill also requires public institutions to report student information to the Department of Higher Education, which will then provide the data to the Department of Revenue for administering the credit. The goal is to encourage students to attend Colorado public colleges and universities, thereby reducing student debt and supporting the state's workforce. The bill is set to repeal on December 31, 2037.
