Missouri SB 1091

SB 1091 - For all tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2027, this act authorizes a taxpayer to claim a tax credit for each qualified child, defined as a dependent of the taxpayer for federal tax purposes who is under 18 years of age, did not provide more than half of the costs of his or her own support, and lived with the taxpayer for more than half of the taxpayer. In order to qualify for a tax credit, a taxpayer shall have a Missouri adjusted gross income of $75,000 or less if filing single, or $150,000 if filing combined. The amount of the tax credit shall be equal to $7,200 for each qualified child under the age of seven, and $3,600 for each qualified child aged seven or older, provided that a taxpayer shall not claim more than six tax credits in a tax year. Tax credits shall not be carried forward or transferred, but are refundable. The Department of Revenue shall establish a program for making monthly advance payments of the tax credit to taxpayers, as described in the act. This act shall sunset on August 28, 2032, unless reauthorized by the General Assembly. This act is identical to HB 813 (2025). JOSH NORBERG
