GOP lawmakers get their wish to expand school choice for K through 12 students. There’s a new income tax credit for donating to scholarship organizations, giving a non-refundable federal tax credit up to $1,700 to individuals who donate cash to qualified organizations providing scholarships to K–12 students.
Additionally, scholarship recipients won’t be taxed on the funds. Note this is a credit, and a portion of it will be refundable. This is going to begin in 2027, so start thinking—how can you start helping the scholarships?
