  • Federal Scholarship Tax Credit (Educational Choice for Children Act) - state participation

    Tax-credit scholarship · Announced, not started

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

    Federal law defines covered expenses by reference to 26 U.S.C. 530(b)(3)(A), which lists tuition, tutoring, books, supplies and similar costs tied to attending "a public, private, or religious school." The October 2026 proposed IRS rules do not address homeschool expenses, so whether homeschool costs qualify is not settled in official sources.

    Dates and status: West Virginia is on the IRS list of states that made an advance election to participate for 2027. Donors may claim a federal credit of up to $1,700 for contributions beginning Jan. 1, 2027.
