Over 65 Deduction from Assessed Valuation

If you receive the over 65 or surviving spouse deduction, you will receive a reduction in your home’s assessed value of $14,000 or half the assessed value, whichever is less. The lower the assessed value of your home, the smaller your property tax bill.

Application Deadline

The application must be completed and dated in the calendar year for which the person wishes to obtain the deduction and filed with the county on or before January 15 of the immediately succeeding calendar year.

For example, a homeowner who completes files the application on or before January 15, 2025, will see the deduction applied to their 2024 pay 2025 tax bill.
