A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 to allow certain low- and middle-income individuals a refundable tax credit for a certain portion of the property taxes paid by them on their principal residences or of the rent they pay for their principal residences.

Summary

Amends the Internal Revenue Code to allow certain low-income individuals a refundable income tax credit for the property taxes and rent paid on their principal residences. Requires, for purposes of eligibility, that the taxes and rent paid by such individuals exceed five percent of their adjusted gross income. Limits such credit to $500 for the taxable year ($250 for married individuals filing separately). Reduces the credit by five percent of the amount by which the taxpayer's adjusted gross income exceeds $10,000 in 1981, $15,000 in 1982, and $20,000 in taxable years beginning after December 31, 1983.
