Law Aims to Aid Elderly With Property Taxes
A new Rhode Island law offers refundable tax credits to homeowners and renters aged 65 or older with annual incomes of 5000 or less. The credit starts at 55 in 1977, rising to 150 in 1978, and applies when property tax or 20 percent of rent exceeds an acceptable burden defined by income and household size. Residency in Rhode Island for the full year is required.
