Bill > HB06463

This bill proposes to modify Connecticut's tax code by removing existing income thresholds that currently limit who can claim personal income tax deductions for Social Security benefits. Under the current law, there are specific income levels that determine an individual's eligibility for these tax deductions, and this legislation would eliminate those restrictions, effectively allowing all Social Security benefit recipients to claim the deduction regardless of their total income. By removing these qualifying income thresholds, the bill aims to provide tax relief for Social Security recipients across all income levels, potentially benefiting retirees and individuals receiving Social Security benefits who previously may have been ineligible for the full tax deduction due to their income. The proposed change would be implemented by amending section 12-701 of the Connecticut general statutes, and it represents a straightforward modification to expand tax benefits for Social Security recipients.
