How can this program help me?
The Homestead Property Tax Credit Program provides a credit (money back) for some of the rent or property tax you have paid. A credit can help lower the amount of property taxes you pay. The amount of credit you can receive depends on certain guidelines set by the program. It is usually based on the property taxes paid and household resources. If you are a renter, you pay property taxes indirectly through your rent.
