Bill overview
This bill extends a provision that allows individuals who have suffered losses due to wildfires to exclude certain payments they receive from their gross income. Specifically, it defines ‘qualified wildfire relief payments’ as compensation for losses, expenses, or damages related to federally declared wildfires after 2014, provided these losses aren’t already covered by insurance. The bill also prevents taxpayers from claiming deductions or credits for expenses already covered by these relief payments and ensures that the basis of property isn’t increased due to these exclusions. The provision is set to expire on December 31, 2032.
