Extends historic homeownership rehabilitation tax credit and requires additional reporting
S 4057 extends New York's historic homeownership rehabilitation tax credit window, allowing eligible homeowners to claim the credit for tax years beginning after 2025 (previously expiring in 2025). It maintains a $50,000 annual credit limit per home (reducing to $25,000 after 2025) for qualified rehabilitation costs of certified historic properties. The bill also adds new reporting requirements: the state tax commissioner must annually report credit claims and utilization data by location and project size to state officials and the public. These reports will include details like certified project counts, credit values, and housing unit changes before/after rehabilitation. The bill directly affects homeowners rehabilitating historic properties in New York who qualify for the tax credit.

MINOR
The bill was amended to reflect its status as a revised version (S. 4057-A) after committee review. The most significant substantive change is the adjustment of the income threshold for claiming the historic homeownership tax credit, which was lowered from $75,000 to $60,000 for immediate refunds, while the carryover provision for higher incomes was retained. Additionally, the reporting requirements for the commissioner were reorganized to better track the number and value of certified projects by municipality and county.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on amending the tax law and parks, recreation and historic preservation law regarding historic home rehabilitation credits, but the financial eligibility criteria have been tightened.
ELIGIBILITY
The income threshold for taxpayers to receive an immediate tax credit refund was lowered from $75,000 to $60,000, making the benefit available to fewer high-income households.
