New Tax Break For Senior Citizens Handicapped in 1980
In Kansas, a 1979 law expands the Homestead Property Tax Relief Act as of 12:01 a.m. Tuesday, raising qualifying income from 9278 to 13000 dollars and increasing rent refunds from 12 to 15 percent. The measure costs about 20 million annually and affects both homeowners and renters, with age and disability criteria evolving through 1984. It also outlines changes to vehicle tax collection starting in 1981 and other tax shifts including estimated state income tax payments and United Way payroll deductions.
