No Tax on LOSAP Act

This legislation aims to provide significant tax relief and clarification for individuals who serve as volunteer firefighters or emergency medical service providers. It proposes amendments to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to adjust how certain payments to these volunteers are treated for tax purposes. Specifically, the bill increases the amount of qualified payments that can be excluded from a volunteer's gross income, raising the current limit from $50 to $1,000 . Furthermore, it explicitly clarifies that payments made under length of service award programs (LOSAP) are to be considered qualified payments, ensuring they also benefit from this tax exclusion. Both amendments will apply to amounts awarded after the bill's enactment date.
