359 OLR Bill Analysis sHB 5190 AN ACT CONCERNING THE HISTORIC HOMES REHABILITATION TAX CREDIT.
SUMMARY This bill changes the taxes against which historic homes rehabilitation tax credits may be claimed.
By law, the Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD) issues these credits, subject to certain requirements, to (1) people and nonprofits who own, rehabilitate, and occupy historic homes or (2) businesses that contribute funds for rehabilitating historic homes that are or will be occupied by their owners.
Under current law, taxpayers may apply only credits issued before January 1, 2024, against specified state business taxes (i.e., the insurance premiums, corporation business, air carriers, railroad companies, cable and satellite TV companies, and utility companies’ taxes).
The bill allows taxpayers to continue claiming credits issued in the 2024 tax year and all following years against these specified business taxes.
The bill also allows all taxpayers to apply credits issued on or after January 1, 2024, against the unrelated business income tax (current law allows only nonprofit corporations to do so).
Existing law, unchanged by the bill, allows all taxpayers to claim them against the personal income tax.
The bill allows taxpayers applying the credit against any of the business taxes mentioned above to carry forward any unused credits for up to four income years, just as existing law allows for nonprofit corporations claiming the credit against the unrelated business income tax.
Under existing law, credits applied against the income tax are refundable for any amount of the credit that exceeds the taxpayer’s sHB5190 / File No.

To qualify for the credit, the project’s construction costs must exceed $15,000.
