Dartmouth Veterans’ Property Tax Exemptions (Clauses 22 to 22F)

Dartmouth prints the statute: $400 under clause 22, $750 under 22A, $1,250 under 22B, $1,500 under 22C and $1,000 under 22E, with a full exemption under 22D.

Also called: property tax, clause 22, 22E, veterans exemption, assessors, Dartmouth.

For: Veteran or service member, spouse, survivor.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The Town of Dartmouth grants the veterans’ exemptions of G.L. c. 59, s. 5, clauses 22 to 22F, through its board of assessors. The statute sets them as dollars off the tax bill, $400 under clause 22, $750, $1,250 and $1,500 under 22A to 22C and $1,000 under 22E, and exempts the whole domicile under 22D and 22F; a town can add to them only by accepting a local option, clause 22I, clause 22J or section 5C½. Every figure on this entry carries its source and the day it was read. The Assessing Department’s Tax Exemption Information page gives the veteran exemptions as “Clause 22-$400 / 22A-$750 / 22B-$1,250 / 22C-$1,500 / 22D-Full” and “22E - $1,000”, the statute’s amounts, and no local option is named; no vote was found in the town’s online records. A certificate of 100 percent disability must be filed annually for 22E. Chapter 115 benefits, the Commonwealth’s needs-based help with rent, food, fuel and medical costs, are applied for through Dartmouth Veterans Services. Their amounts are set by the Commonwealth and are the same in every city and town; the statewide chapter 115 entry describes them.

Thresholds

Thresholds for Dartmouth Veterans’ Property Tax Exemptions (Clauses 22 to 22F)
GateRule
A VA rating, a decoration, or a surviving relativeClause 22 reaches a veteran rated 10 percent or more, a Purple Heart recipient, a Gold Star parent and the spouse or unmarried surviving spouse; 22A to 22E turn on named losses, decorations, a 100 percent rating or specially adapted housing. The rating filter does not hide this entry, because several routes need no rating.

Figures

Each figure is dated with the day it was read. A local figure moves whenever the statute or the local ordinance does, so confirm it with the office that grants it before you rely on it. Statute verified gives the day the weekly section check last found the statute standing on the legislature’s own code site; a figure without it rests on a statute the check does not read yet.
