Bill Summary
To increase, for married individuals filing jointly, the qualifying income thresholds for the personal income tax deductions for Social Security benefits, pension and annuity income and distributions and adjust the applicable phase-outs accordingly.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to modify Connecticut state tax law by increasing income thresholds for married couples filing jointly, specifically for personal income tax deductions related to Social Security benefits, pension, and annuity income. Under the proposed changes, married couples filing jointly would be eligible for these tax deductions if their combined income is less than $150,000, and the phase-out range (the income range over which the deduction gradually reduces) would be adjusted to extend up to $200,000. By raising these thresholds, the bill aims to provide more tax relief for married couples, allowing them to keep more of their retirement and Social Security income before the tax benefits start to diminish. This modification could potentially benefit middle-income retirees by expanding the income range during which they can receive full or partial tax deductions on these types of income.
