Senior Citizen Property Tax Deferral

The Property Tax Deferral Program has traditionally helped seniors to afford to live in their homes by deferring the payment of their property taxes. The deferral loan is recorded as a junior lien against the participant’s property. It does not have to be repaid until the participant no longer qualifies, leaves the program, or sells the property.

Application Deadline

Application must be filed between January 1 and April 1. The taxpayer must reapply each year to continue deferring prior year taxes, as well as to request deferral on current year taxes.
