Programs that provide information and guidance regarding property tax relief programs that grant partial or complete exemptions from property taxes for homeowners who are experiencing severe financial hardship. Exemptions are a reduction in the assessed value of a home by a specified amount and corresponding reductions in property taxes. Some forms of relief, known as "circuit-breaker" programs, offer exemptions that phase out as income increases. Many exemption programs have specified eligibility criteria, e.g., older adults, people with disabilities, widows, veterans and disabled veterans who have a permanent service-connected disability of a specified percent. In some cases, people who qualify must also meet income guidelines. In others, income is not a factor.
