SB 261 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: certain limitations on claiming the veterans and surviving spouses property tax credit. (FE)

SB 261 prevents veterans and surviving spouses from claiming the property tax credit if they also claim certain other specific credits for the same tax year. It amends the law to block the property tax credit if a claim is filed under sections (3m), (9), or subchapters VIII or IX for that year. This applies to taxable years starting January 1, 2025, directly affecting eligible veterans and surviving spouses who might otherwise qualify for multiple credits. The bill creates a clear limitation to avoid overlapping claims for the same tax year.
