Overview
This bill allows certain volunteer firefighters, rescue and first aid squad members in New Jersey to claim a $5,000 deduction from their State income tax. To qualify, volunteers must have performed a specific percentage of duty hours (either 60% of fire duty or 10% of rescue duty) and meet certain training requirements, such as obtaining Firefighter I certification or completing an approved first aid training program. The bill also outlines procedures for reporting eligible volunteers to the state and prohibits officials from submitting false lists.
