  • Federal Scholarship Tax Credit (Education Freedom Tax Credit) - California participation

    Tax-credit scholarship · State not taking part for 2027

    Program doesn’t say whether homeschoolers qualify From official sources October 7, 2026

    California is not participating, so no California scholarships exist under this credit. IRS guidance defines covered expenses by reference to a public, private or religious school and does not address homeschooling.

    Dates and status: California has not opted in: it is not on the IRS list of states that elected to participate for 2027 (as of Sept 14, 2026), and the Governor's newsroom has no announcement of a decision either way.

    Coverage note

    No statewide program found From official sources October 7, 2026

    California has no state ESA, voucher, tax-credit scholarship, or K-12 education tax credit, and the state's homeschooling page describes legal options only, with no state funding for families. Some public charter schools and independent study programs serve students at home, but those students are enrolled in a public school. Local scholarships, tax deductions or district programs may still exist; tell us if you know of one.
