Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates an income and franchise tax deduction for tuition expenses
paid by an individual or corporation for an individual to participate in an
apprenticeship program that is approved by the Department of Workforce
Development. If the deduction is claimed by an individual, the participant in the
apprenticeship program must be the individual or his or her dependent. The
deduction first applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017.
Because this bill relates to an exemption from state or local taxes, it may be
referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Tax Exemptions for a report to be printed
