SB 319 - Currently, public or private retirees may deduct up to $6,000 of pension allowances received each year if the taxpayer's income does not exceed $32,000 for married taxpayers or $25,000 for single taxpayers. This act removes the income limitation for taxpayers age sixty-five and older, allowing the full $6,000 of retirement benefits to be deducted from state income tax regardless of income. Taxpayers younger than 65 years of age will still be allowed the $6,000 benefit deduction subject to the income limitations. This act is identical to HB 133 (2007). JASON ZAMKUS
