Georgia Program Eligibility
Property Tax-Aide features three property tax relief programs in Georgia: Homestead Exemption for 65+, Disabled Veteran/Surviving Spouse Exemption, and the Standard Homestead Exemption. Some counties have increased the amounts of their homestead exemptions by local legislation above the amounts offered by the State. Generally, the exemptions offered by the county are more beneficial to the homeowner.
