What it does
The Military Spouse Hiring Act would amend the Internal Revenue Code to make employers who hire spouses of military personnel eligible for the work opportunity tax credit. It defines a "qualified military spouse" as someone certified by a designated local agency as being, as of the hiring date, the spouse of a member of the U.S. Armed Forces. The credit would apply to wages paid or incurred after the bill’s enactment for individuals who begin work for the employer after that date.
