What is the Circuit Breaker Tax Credit for Seniors?

With tax season upon us, I wanted to share with you information regarding a tax credit for seniors (65 or older before January 1, 2022), referred to as the Circuit Breaker Tax Credit.

The Massachusetts Senior Circuit Breaker Tax Credit was designed by the Legislature to help provide tax relief for older adults. This brochure contains information on the Circuit Breaker Tax Credit, including eligibility requirements.

This brochure is not an official tax document. Should you have specific tax questions, I suggest that you consult with a tax professional. If you have questions regarding the Circuit Breaker Tax Credit, please contact the Department of Revenue at 1-800-392-6089.

Please feel free to share this information with seniors. As always, please do not hesitate to email me or contact me at 617-722-2810.
