South Carolina considers tax breaks to lure veterans and retirees
The House passed bills to allow GI Bill students in SC to pay in state rates and to begin phasing out state income tax on veterans retirement income over three years. Retirees 65 and older could deduct up to 15000 annually, under 65 up to 3000. Bill seeks to attract military retirees to boost jobs and keep bases.
