Tax Credits for the Elderly or Disabled
A tax credit is available to those taxpayers who are either 65 years of age before December 31, 2009 or under the age of 65 but retired, and were permanently and totally disabled when they retired. Unfortunately this credit is not as substantial as some of the other tax credits that are available to taxpayers, however like any tax credit, it should not be overlooked since it could result in some unexpected cash in a taxpayers pocket.
