Property Tax Exemption Information

Programs that provide information and guidance regarding property tax relief programs that grant partial or complete exemptions from property taxes for homeowners who are experiencing severe financial hardship. Exemptions are a reduction in the assessed value of a home by a specified amount and corresponding reductions in property taxes. Some forms of relief, known as "circuit-breaker" programs, offer exemptions that phase out as income increases. Many exemption programs have specified eligibility criteria, e.g., older adults, people with disabilities, widows, veterans and disabled veterans who have a permanent service-connected disability of a specified percent. In some cases, people who qualify must also meet income guidelines. In others, income is not a factor.

Property Tax Postponement Information

Programs that provide information and guidance for eligible individuals (usually people age 62 and older who meet established household income guidelines and people who are blind or totally disabled) who may qualify for the property tax postponement program. Eligible individuals may defer payment of all or a portion of their property taxes until they move, sell their homes or pass away, but create a lien on their property in doing so.
