Bill > HB1248

This bill introduces the Senior Service Corps Act of 2025, which creates a tax exemption for wages earned by senior citizens who perform part-time support services in public schools. Specifically, the bill allows individuals who are 59 years or older, receiving retirement benefits, and not working full-time elsewhere, to be exempt from Oklahoma state income tax for wages earned by providing non-teaching support services in public schools. These support services include tasks such as assisting during student arrival and departure times, helping during meal periods, supporting recess activities, assisting with extracurricular events, and providing general assistance as requested by school supervisory personnel. The tax exemption will take effect on November 1, 2025, and aims to encourage seniors to engage in part-time work supporting local schools by providing a financial incentive through a complete income tax exemption for such work.
