How can this program help me?
This program offers you a property tax exemption (tax break) to help you lower the amount of property tax you pay. You will receive an exemption on the property's assessed (taxable) value. The assessed value is the dollar amount used to decide how much you will have to pay in property taxes. The amount of the exemption you get will depend on the level of your service-connected disability.
How do I get help?
For information on how to apply, please contact your local county tax assessor's office.
