Qualifying for the Limited-Income Senior Exemption \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Does Your Social Security Count?<\/strong><\/p>\n

To qualify for the 2026 Limited-Income Senior Exemption, an applicant must be 65 years or older as of January 1, 2026 with a combined household adjusted<\/u> gross income not exceeding $38,686 for 2025.\u00a0 Many seniors believe they do not qualify for this exemption because their social security payments exceed this amount; however, applicants who file income taxes should look at their adjusted gross income amount (line 11 on the IRS 1040 form<\/em>) to see if they do qualify for this additional savings. If you are not required to file an income tax return based on your age and income, you would qualify for this exemption.\u00a0\u00a0 To apply for the additional Limited-Income Senior Exemption, please visit our website at web.bcpa.net and click on \u201cExemptions & Classifications\u201d.<\/p>\n

If you are already receiving the Senior Exemption and have not moved to a new home, your exemption will automatically renew<\/u> for the 2026 tax year unless you notify our office that you no longer meet the income threshold.<\/p>\n

BCPA\u2019s Tax Estimator – An Online Tool\u00a0<\/strong>to Help You Plan for Your New Home<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the Property Appraiser\u2019s Office does not set or collect taxes, we know the importance of understanding what the property taxes will be on a new home.\u00a0 Before purchasing your new home, you can estimate what the property taxes will be using your purchase price and the current tax rates available.\u00a0 It is important to understand that this tool is simply an estimate and does not include any non-ad valorem fees associated with the property.\u00a0 The non-ad valorem fees are shown on the property\u2019s previous tax bill or TRIM Notice also available online.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you currently own a home with Homestead Exemption, you can also estimate the taxes on a new home using any portability you may have on your current home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Both the Tax Estimator and Portability Estimator are available online at web.bcpa.net under the \u201cOnline Tools\u201d tab.<\/p>\n

If my office can ever be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me directly at martykiar@bcpa.net.<\/p>\n

Take care,<\/p>\n\n\n
