Joel Johnson, Maine Center for Economic Policy, June 2015. Combined with Maine’s circuit breaker property tax relief program, which was renamed and converted to a refundable income tax credit two years ago, there will now be substantial financial incentives for low-income Mainers to file an income tax return and receive refundable credits they have coming to them. And that will mean they have more in their wallets to pay the bills or save for the future.
