Act 63 provides a refundable income tax credit (credit) as mandated by the State Constitution.

Article VII, section 6, of the State Constitution, requires the Legislature to enact a tax credit or refund if the general fund balance exceeds general fund revenues by 5 percent two years in a row.

This constitutional requirement has been met. The credit is $1 multiplied by the number of qualified exemptions the taxpayer is entitled to claim. The credit applies to taxable year 2002.
