Bill Summary
To establish a refundable child tax credit.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Connecticut's tax laws by establishing a new refundable child tax credit for personal income tax filers. Under the proposed legislation, eligible taxpayers with a federal adjusted gross income of $100,000 or less for single filers, or $200,000 or less for married couples filing jointly, can claim a tax credit of $600 per child, with the credit applying to up to three children. A refundable tax credit means that if the credit amount exceeds the taxpayer's total tax liability, the excess will be paid out to the taxpayer as a direct payment, providing financial support to families with children. This tax credit aims to provide additional financial relief to lower and middle-income families by reducing their tax burden and potentially offering a direct cash benefit.
