BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Subsection (aa) of section 606 of the tax law, as amended
by section 1 of part P of chapter 61 of the laws of 2005, is amended to
read as follows:
(aa) Long-term care insurance credit. (1) Residents. A taxpayer shall
be allowed a credit against the tax imposed by this article equal to
twenty percent of the premium paid during the taxable year for long-term
care insurance. In order to qualify for such credit, the taxpayer's
premium payment must be for the purchase of or for continuing coverage
under a long-term care insurance policy that qualifies for such credit
pursuant to section one thousand one hundred seventeen of the insurance
law. If the amount of the credit allowable under this subsection for any
taxable year shall exceed the taxpayer's tax for such year, the excess
[may be carried over to the following year or years and may be deducted
from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years.] SHALL BE TREATED AS AN
OVERPAYMENT OF TAX TO BE CREDITED OR REFUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
PROVISIONS OF SECTION SIX HUNDRED EIGHTY-SIX OF THIS ARTICLE, PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, THAT NO INTEREST SHALL BE PAID THEREIN.
(2) Nonresidents and part-year residents. In the case of a nonresident
taxpayer or a part-year resident taxpayer, the credit determined under
this subsection shall be limited to the amount determined by multiplying
the amount of such credit by the New York source fraction as set forth
in paragraph three of subsection (e) of section six hundred one of this
article. [The credit as so limited shall be applied as provided in para-
graph one of this subsection.] IF THE AMOUNT OF THE CREDIT ALLOWABLE
