Georgia residents could soon see some financial relief thanks to the passage of House Bill 136 and House Bill 112 by state legislators during the recently concluded legislative session. The bills, aimed at easing financial burdens, now await Governor Brian Kemp’s signature to become law. House Bill 136 focuses on expanding the state income tax credit for child care costs, increasing the limit from 30% to 50%. In addition, it establishes a $250 state tax credit for each child under six years old, set to take effect in the 2026 tax year. House Bill 112 proposes a one-time tax rebate for all adult Georgia residents. Single taxpayers and married taxpayers filing separately would receive $250, heads of household would receive $375, and married couples filing jointly would receive $500.  Governor Kemp now has 40 days, until May 15th, to either approve or veto the bills.
