How: File an application with the county assessor by April 15, or late from April 16 to December 1 with a fee.
- Disabled veterans and surviving spouses: property tax exemption. For 2026 the basic exemption for a disabled veteran or the surviving spouse of a veteran is $27,092 of assessed value; the exemption for a service-connected disability is $32,512. Veterans must be certified 40% or more disabled; surviving spouses must not have remarried. Once qualified, you do not need to renew each year.
