Georgia School Tax Exemption Program

1 min read

How can this program help me?

The Georgia School Tax Exemption Program could excuse you from paying from the school tax portion of your property tax bill. Part of your home’s assessed (estimated) value is exempted (subtracted) for school tax purposes. The assessed value is the dollar amount used to decide how much you will have to pay in property taxes. This benefit is offered in addition to the state’s Homestead Exemption program.
