With the passage of Senate Bill 190 (2023) and Senate Bill 756 (2024), ALL senior citizens aged 62 and older are eligible for property tax relief on their home by applying for a tax credit each year. This will allow the senior to receive a tax credit for the difference of the property taxes from the current year and the first year they received the tax credit. This essentially “freezes” their property tax liability going forward.

Key Updates to the Law for 2024:
-ALL senior citizens, aged 62 or older are eligible, regardless of Social Security eligibility
-Counties are prohibited from limiting the tax credit to homes with certain values (means testing)
