The OAC is a secure website made available by the Office of Real Property Tax Services (ORPTS) to county RPT directors, assessors, and their staff.
Changes to senior citizens and disability exemption eligibility
Due to the 2023-2024 Enacted State Budget, there are changes to the senior citizens exemption and the exemption for persons with disabilities and limited incomes.
Assessors should ask applicants whose incomes are low enough that they are not required to file a Form 1040 to complete and attach to their application a worksheet. For more information, see Guidance on the new 467 income worksheet (RP-467-Wkst) for non-filers.
Also see Form RP-467, Form RP-467-RNW, Form RP-467-Wkst, and their instructions.
