Massachusetts H1487 aims to exclude veterans' disability benefits from income calculations for low-income housing eligibility.

Massachusetts H1487 amends Chapter 23B of the General Laws to ensure that disability benefits paid to veterans under 38 U.S.C. section 1101 et seq. are not included in the income calculations for low-income housing eligibility. This change aims to make housing more accessible for disabled veterans by preventing their benefits from being counted against their income, thereby potentially increasing their eligibility for public housing assistance.
