Summary

The bill changes the Internal Revenue Code so that spouses and surviving spouses of military veterans are considered veterans for a specific exception to the three‑year ownership look‑back rule on qualified mortgage bonds and mortgage credit certificates. This expands eligibility for those tax benefits to more veteran families. It aims to make affordable‑housing incentives more accessible to those families.
