Bill > H4235

This bill proposes to create property tax credits for individuals with disabilities by amending a section of Massachusetts General Laws related to tax credits. Specifically, it adds a new paragraph to subsection (k) of section 6 of chapter 62, which governs tax credits. This new provision allows individuals who are eligible for social security supplemental income due to a disability, and who meet other requirements for the tax credit, to claim it, even if they are younger than the age restriction typically imposed by paragraph 2 of that subsection. Social Security Supplemental Income (SSI) is a program that provides cash assistance to people with limited income and resources who are disabled, blind, or age 65 or older.
