Provided, however, no person may be a member of more 6 than one household at one time. 7 [(c)] (C) "Household gross income" means the aggregate adjusted gross 8 income of all members of the household for the taxable year as reported 9 for federal income tax purposes, or which would be reported as adjusted 10 gross income if a federal income tax return were required to be filed, 11 with the modifications in subsection (b) of section six hundred twelve 12 but without the modifications in subsection (c) of such section, plus 13 any portion of the gain from the sale or exchange of property otherwise 14 excluded from such amount; earned income from sources without the United 15 States excludable from federal gross income by section nine hundred 16 eleven of the internal revenue code; support money not included in 17 adjusted gross income; nontaxable strike benefits; supplemental security 18 income payments; the gross amount of any pension or annuity benefits to 19 the extent not included in such adjusted gross income (including, but 20 not limited to, railroad retirement benefits and all payments received 21 under the federal social security act and veterans' disability 22 pensions); nontaxable interest received from the state of New York, its 23 agencies, instrumentalities, public corporations, or political subdivi- 24 sions (including a public corporation created pursuant to agreement or 25 compact with another state or Canada); workers' compensation; the gross 26 amount of "loss-of-time" insurance; and the amount of cash public 27 assistance and relief, other than medical assistance for the needy, paid 28 to or for the benefit of the qualified taxpayer or members of his house- 29 hold.

Residence includes a trailer or mobile home, used exclusively 41 for residential purposes and defined as real property pursuant to para- 42 graph (g) of subdivision twelve of section one hundred two of the real 43 property tax law. 44 (E) "Qualifying real property taxes" means all real property taxes, 45 special ad valorem levies and special assessments, exclusive of penal- 46 ties and interest, levied on the residence of a qualified taxpayer and 47 paid during the taxable year less the credit claimed under the former 48 subsection (n-1) of this section. In addition, for taxable years begin- 49 ning after December thirty-first, nineteen hundred eighty-four, a quali- 50 fied taxpayer may elect to include any additional amount that would have 51 been levied in the absence of an exemption from real property taxation 52 pursuant to section four hundred sixty-seven of the real property tax 53 law. If tenant-stockholders in a cooperative housing corporation have 54 met the requirements of section two hundred sixteen of the internal 55 revenue code by which they are allowed a deduction for real estate 56 taxes, the amount of taxes so allowable, or which would be allowable ifS. 1601--A 3 A. 939--A 1 the taxpayer had filed returns on a cash basis, shall be qualifying real 2 property taxes. If a residence is owned by two or more individuals as 3 joint tenants or tenants in common, and one or more than one individual 4 is not a member of the household, qualifying real property taxes is that 5 part of such taxes on the residence which reflects the ownership 6 percentage of the qualified taxpayer and members of his household. If a 7 residence is an integral part of a larger unit, qualifying real property 8 taxes shall be limited to that amount of such taxes paid as may be 9 reasonably apportioned to such residence. If a household owns and occu- 10 pies two or more residences during different periods in the same taxable 11 year, qualifying real property taxes shall be the sum of the prorated 12 qualifying real property taxes attributable to the household during the 13 periods such household occupies each of such residences. If the house- 14 hold owns and occupies a residence for part of the taxable year and 15 rents a residence for part of the same taxable year, it may include both 16 the proration of qualifying real property taxes on the residence owned 17 and the real property tax equivalent with respect to the months the 18 residence is rented. Provided, however, for purposes of the credit 19 allowed under this subsection, qualifying real property taxes may be 20 included by a qualified taxpayer only to the extent that such taxpayer 21 or the spouse of such taxpayer occupying such residence for six months 22 or more of the taxable year owns or has owned the residence and paid 23 such taxes. 24 (F) "Real property tax equivalent" means twenty-five percent of the 25 adjusted rent actually paid in the taxable year by a household solely 26 for the right of occupancy of its New York residence for the taxable 27 year. If (i) a residence is rented to two or more individuals as coten- 28 ants, or such individuals share in the payment of a single rent for the 29 right of occupancy of such residence, and (ii) each of such individuals 30 is a member of a different household, one or more of which individuals 31 shares such residence, real property tax equivalent is that portion of 32 twenty-five percent of the adjusted rent paid in the taxable year which 33 reflects that portion of the rent attributable to the qualified taxpayer 34 and the members of his household. 35 (G) "Adjusted rent" means rental paid for the right of occupancy of a 36 residence, excluding charges for heat, gas, electricity, furnishings and 37 board. Where charges for heat, gas, electricity, furnishing or board 38 are included in rental but where such charges and the amount thereof are 39 not separately set forth in a written rental agreement, for purposes of 40 determining adjusted rent the qualified taxpayer shall reduce rental 41 paid as follows: 42 (i) For heat, or heat and gas, deduct fifteen percent of rental paid. 43 (ii) For heat, gas and electricity, deduct twenty percent of rental 44 paid. 45 (iii) For heat, gas, electricity and furnishings, deduct twenty-five 46 percent of rental paid. 47 (iv) For heat, gas, electricity, furnishings and board, deduct fifty 48 percent of rental paid. 49 If the [tax commission] commissioner determines that the adjusted rent 50 shown on the return is excessive, the [tax commission] commissioner may 51 reduce such rent, for purposes of the computation of the credit, to an 52 amount substantially equivalent to rent for a comparable accommodation. 53 (2) A qualified taxpayer shall be allowed a credit as provided in 54 paragraph three hereof against the taxes imposed by this article reduced 55 by the credits permitted by this article. If the credit exceeds the tax 56 as so reduced for such year under this article the qualified taxpayerS. 1601--A 4 A. 939--A 1 may receive, and the comptroller, subject to a certificate of the [state2tax commission] commissioner, shall pay as an overpayment, without 3 interest, any excess between such tax as so reduced and the amount of 4 the credit. If a qualified taxpayer is not required to file a return 5 pursuant to section six hundred fifty-one of this article, a qualified 6 taxpayer may nevertheless receive and the comptroller, subject to a 7 certificate of the [state tax commission] commissioner, shall pay as an 8 overpayment the full amount of the credit, without interest. 9 (3) Determination of credit. (A) For qualified taxpayers who have 10 attained the age of sixty-five years or a permanent and total disability 11 as defined in section twenty-two of the internal revenue code before the 12 beginning of or during the taxable year the amount of the credit allow- 13 able under this subsection shall be fifty percent, or in the case of a 14 qualified taxpayer who has elected to include an additional amount 15 pursuant to subparagraph (E) of paragraph one of this subsection, twen- 16 ty-five percent, of the excess of real property taxes or the excess of 17 real property tax equivalent

If a qualified taxpayer is not required to file a return 51 pursuant to section six hundred fifty-one of this article, a claim for a 52 credit may be taken on a return filed with the [tax commission] commis- 53 sioner within three years from the time it would have been required that 54 a return be filed pursuant to such section had the qualified taxpayer 55 had a taxable year ending on December thirty-first. Returns under this 56 paragraph shall be in such form as shall be prescribed by the [taxS. 1601--A 8 A. 939--A 1commission] commissioner, which shall make available such forms and 2 instructions for filing such returns. 3 (10) Proof of claim.

As used in such sections and such part, the term 31 "taxpayer" shall include a qualified taxpayer under this subsection and, 32 notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (e) of section six hundred 33 ninety-seven of this article, where a qualified taxpayer has protested 34 the denial of a claim for credit under this subsection and the time to 35 file a petition for redetermination of a deficiency or for refund has 36 not expired, he or she shall, subject to such conditions as may be set 37 by the [tax commission] commissioner, receive such information (A) which 38 is contained in any return filed under this article by a member of his 39 or her household for the taxable year for which the credit is claimed, 40 and (B) which the [tax commission] commissioner finds is relevant and 41 material to the issue of whether such claim was properly denied. The 42 [tax commission] commissioner shall have the authority to promulgate 43 such rules and regulations as may be necessary for the processing, 44 determination and granting of credits and refunds under this subsection. 45 (13) Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the credit 46 allowed under this subsection shall be determined after the determi- 47 nation and application of any other credits permitted under the 48 provisions of this article. 49 (14) The commissioner [of taxation and finance] shall prepare a 50 preliminary written report after July thirty-first and a final written 51 report after December thirty-first of each calendar year, which shall 52 contain statistical information regarding the credits granted on or 53 before such dates under this subsection during such calendar year. 54 Copies of these reports shall be submitted by such commissioner to the 55 governor, the temporary president of the senate, the speaker of the 56 assembly, the chairman of the senate finance committee and the chairmanS. 1601--A 9 A. 939--A 1 of the assembly ways and means committee within sixty days of July thir- 2 ty-first with respect to the preliminary report, and within forty-five 3 days of December thirty-first with respect to the final report.
