An Act amending the act of June 27, 2006 (1st Sp.Sess., P.L.1873, No.1), known as the Taxpayer Relief Act, in senior citizens property tax and rent rebate assistance, further providing for definitions and for proof of claim.

Summary

The bill changes the definition of "household income" for Pennsylvania’s senior citizen property tax and rent rebate program so that utility expenses can be deducted. It also adds a requirement that claimants submit copies of their water, sewer, electric and gas bills with their rebate application. The changes aim to make the rebate more accessible to low‑income seniors by lowering the income threshold used to determine eligibility.
