Massachusetts S1840 proposes tax relief for low-income seniors by exempting them from excise on motor vehicles.

Massachusetts S1840 seeks to amend Chapter 60A Section 1 of the Massachusetts General Laws to exempt low-income seniors from excise tax on motor vehicles. Specifically, the bill proposes to exclude citizens over 65 with an annual income at or below the federal poverty guideline from paying this tax on one vehicle. This exemption would apply once the assessors allow it, barring any subsequent refusal if the senior citizen did not meet the criteria at the time of the initial exemption.
