Business tax break for career donations extended

New Hampshire extends its business tax credit for qualifying donations to regional career and technical education center programs. The program’s end date moves from June 30, 2026, to June 30, 2031. Existing limits remain: total credits are capped at $500,000 per fiscal year. Each taxpayer’s credit cannot exceed 25% of Business Profits Tax due before credits. The fiscal note describes using credits in the donation year or the following year, depending on the taxpayer’s tax year.
