SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Eligibility for in-state or reduced tuition. Allows students who have lived outside the Commonwealth for not more than five years due to the out-of-state relocation of a parent, who was a resident of the Commonwealth before leaving, to comply with a temporary job transfer or to care for an elderly, disabled, or infirm parent to become eligible for in-state tuition charges upon the nonresident parents (i) claiming them as dependents, (ii) returning as residents of the Commonwealth, (iii) accepting employment full time inside Virginia immediately prior to the date of the alleged entitlement, and (iv) paying Virginia income taxes on all taxable income earned in this Commonwealth while a former resident. The parents must also pay Virginia income taxes on all taxable income for the tax year prior to the date of college enrollment. Such students will continue to be eligible for in-state tuition charges as long as they or their qualifying parent is employed full time in Virginia, paying Virginia income taxes on all taxable income earned in Virginia, and the student is claimed as a dependent for Virginia and federal income tax purposes.
