The Access Technology Affordability Act of 2025 creates a new federal tax credit to help blind individuals afford assistive technology. The refundable tax credit allows blind taxpayers, their spouses, and their dependents to claim up to $2,000 in expenses every three years for qualifying access technology—such as screen readers, braille displays, and other software or hardware that converts visual information into usable formats for blind people. The credit applies to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025, and expires after December 31, 2030, though the $2,000 limit will be adjusted annually for inflation starting in 2027. The bill prevents double-dipping by prohibiting individuals from claiming both this credit and other deductions or credits for the same expense.
