- Title
- Homestead Exemptions; removing the annual verification requirement for qualifying permanently and totally disabled veterans
- Description
Under existing law, certain homesteads owned and occupied by residents of this state who are permanently and totally disabled, including qualifying disabled veterans of the United States Armed Forces, are exempt from ad valorem taxation. Current law also allows qualifying permanently and totally disabled veterans to annually verify the continuation of their qualifying conditions rather than annually reapply for the exemption.
This bill would provide that permanently and totally disabled veterans of the United States Armed Forces are released from the annual verification requirement for homestead exemptions.
This bill would also make nonsubstantive, technical revisions to update existing code language to current style.
