		Potential Tax Credit Married couples with an adjusted gross income of $50,000 or less and individuals with an adjusted gross income of $25,000 or less may be eligible for a tax credit for a portion of their pension contributions. The amount of the pension contribution qualifying for the tax credit varies with the adjusted gross income and is applied to the first $2,000 of pension contributions. This tax credit is in effect for tax years 2002 - 2005 under the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001. The non-refundable tax credit is claimed when filing your tax return. Contact your tax adviser for details. Note: this information is based on our general understanding of the new law and does not constitute tax advice.
