The program's recent expansion became effective on January 16, 2024, when the new claim season opened. The rebate program is open to eligible Pennsylvanians age 65 and older, widows and widowers age 50 and older, and individuals with disabilities age 18 and older.
Homeowners should contact their county assessment office (position 48) for a copy of their county's homestead and farmstead application form. The March 1 application deadline for property tax relief is set in the Homeowner Tax Relief Act (Section 341 of Act 72 of 2004).
Applications for property tax exemptions are filed with the appraisal district in the county in which the property is located. The general deadline for filing an exemption application is before May 1. Appraisal district chief appraisers are solely responsible for determining whether property qualifies for an exemption.
Age 65 or Older Deferrals If you are a property owner who qualifies for the Age 65 or Older or the Disability exemptions, you may defer or postpone paying any property taxes on your home for as long as you own and live in it. This deferral only postpones your taxes; it does not cancel them.
Older adults and people with disabilities 18 and older in Pennsylvania may be eligible to receive up to $1,000 in rebates.
Ing to the Comptroller, there is no provision for the cessation of property taxes at any stage. However, there is a Texas property tax exemption for people over the age of 65, which offers temporary tax relief for seniors. At the age of 65, seniors can apply for an exemption from Texas property taxes.
To qualify for the age 65 or older residence homestead exemption, the individual must be age 65 or older, have an ownership interest in the property and live in the home as his or her principal residence.
To qualify for a general or disabled homestead exemption you must own your home on January 1. If you are 65 years of age or older you need not own your home on January 1. You will qualify for the over 65 exemption as soon as you turn 65, own the home and live in it as your principal residence.
For instance, while most states set the bar at 65, states like Washington allow exemptions starting at 61. Alabama is the only state that offers total property tax exemption to seniors 65 and up.
