HB 4192

Abstract

Amends the Illinois Income Tax Act. Authorizes a credit to each individual taxpayer for qualified child and dependent care expenditures by the taxpayer during the taxable year, but not to exceed $1,000 per year, incurred while the taxpayer is a member of the United States Armed Services, including the Illinois National Guard or any reserve component of the Armed Forces of the United States, and is mobilized to active duty and deployed outside Illinois. "Qualified child and dependent care expenditures" are defined as those that qualify under the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit under the federal Internal Revenue Code. Provides that the credit may not reduce the taxpayer's liability to less than zero and may not be carried back or carried forward. Exempts the credit from the Act's sunset provisions. Effective immediately.
