Subject:	Homeowners Association Contributions Tax Deduction

As you all are aware, many homeowners across the State are having a difficult time keeping up with all of their financial obligations as it relates to their home. In response to this, several bills have been introduced with the intent of removing a portion of the burden homeowners are shouldering. However, I plan to take a different approach in providing relief for homeowners across the State. In the near future, I plan to re-introduce legislation (former HB 202) that will assist all Pennsylvania homeowners that are required to contribute to a homeowners association. If enacted, my legislation would permit homeowners to deduct 75% of the total amount they remitted to a qualifying association from their State PIT return. Our current economic climate has placed a large burden on homeowners by adding additional or increasing financial obligations.
