Military Veterans Will Expect Larger Retirement Tax Credit Following New Law

Several military veterans will expect to receive larger retirement tax credits after Maryland Governor Wes Moore signed House Bill 554 into law, raising the credit to $20,000.

The new law will provide eligible military veterans coverage for various services, including dental and health if they ever retire from the military service and change careers or go into businesses, WTOP News reported.

Although the retirement tax credits approved were only half of what was requested, military veterans will still receive larger credits and enough relief for themselves and their dependents after retirement, in addition to the services that will be provided by the Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs.
