Bill overview
This bill proposes to create a state tax credit for families who provide care for elderly relatives or individuals living with Alzheimer's or dementia. The credit is intended to help offset the financial burdens associated with this type of caregiving. Families would be eligible to claim the credit based on the amount of time and expense dedicated to providing care. This legislation builds upon previous attempts to establish similar tax credits in Massachusetts.
