0012| this section, any resident who files an individual New Mexico
|
0013| income tax return and who is not a dependent of another
|
0014| individual may claim a tax rebate for a portion of state and
|
0015| local taxes to which the resident has been subject during the
|
0016| taxable year for which the return is filed. The tax rebate
|
0017| may be claimed even though the resident has no income taxable
|
0018| under the Income Tax Act. A husband and wife who file
|
0019| separate returns for a taxable year in which they could have

|
0004| C. For the purposes of this section, the total
|
0005| number of exemptions for which a tax rebate may be claimed or
|
0006| allowed is determined by adding the number of federal
|
0007| exemptions allowable for federal income tax purposes for each
|
0008| individual included in the return who is domiciled in New
|
0009| Mexico plus two additional exemptions for each individual
|
0010| domiciled in New Mexico included in the return who is
|
0011| sixty-five years of age or older plus one additional exemption
|
0012| for each individual domiciled in New Mexico included in the
|
0013| return who, for federal income tax purposes, is blind plus one
|
0014| exemption for each minor child or stepchild of the resident
|
0015| who would be a dependent for federal income tax purposes if
|
0016| the public assistance contributing to the support of the child
|
0017| or stepchild was considered to have been contributed by the
|
0018| resident.

0019| D. The tax rebate provided for in this section may
