What this bill would do

This bill, known as the Military Spouse Hiring Act'', aims to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. It specifically seeks to make employers of spouses of military personnel eligible for the work opportunity credit. The legislation defines a qualified military spouse'' as someone certified by a designated local agency as being a spouse of a member of the United States Armed Forces. These changes would apply to amounts paid or incurred after the bill is enacted for individuals who start work after that date.
