Bill > HB1366

This bill establishes a nonrefundable apprenticeship tax credit for eligible employers in Indiana, offering $2,500 for each apprentice employed in a qualified apprenticeship, which is defined as a program certified by the U.S. Department of Labor or developed in conjunction with the state's Department of Workforce Development. The credit is available for apprentices employed for at least seven months in a taxable year, but not for more than four years or after the apprenticeship term concludes, and there are specific conditions for claiming the credit for multiple apprentices, including those who are foster children, veterans, military spouses, or women. Additionally, the bill mandates that licensing boards in Indiana must issue a license, certificate, registration, or permit to individuals who hold a substantially equivalent credential from Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, or Kentucky, have demonstrated competency, have held the credential for at least one year, and meet other good standing and competency requirements, with certain exceptions for healthcare practitioners, architects, engineers, accountants, and veterinarians.
