Davis County Tax Administration: Veteran with a Disability Exemption
Davis County's Tax Administration takes the State's veteran exemption - a service-connected rating of 10% to 100% on the primary residence, with the VA Summary of Benefits letter for first-time filers - by September 1, 2026, with the County Commission able to extend a late claim to December 31 on a late form for good cause; the office answers at 801-451-3331.
Also called: property tax, veteran exemption, 59-2a-501, 59-2a-502, September 1, late form, Farmington, Tax Administration, abatement.
The exemption is State law, Utah Code 59-2a-501 and 59-2a-502 since the 2025 recodification; the Utah entry explains the amounts and the rating bands. In Davis County the Tax Administration takes the applications - not the Assessor.
What the county says. Its abatements page: "To qualify for the Veteran Armed Forces Tax Exemption with a disability or Veteran Armed Forces Spouse Tax Exemption with a disability: There must be a service-connected disability rating of 10% - 100%. The home or vehicles must be in the applicant's name as of September 1st of the current year. The home must be the 'primary residence', defined as where the claimant resides." The filing period runs January 1, 2026 with the law's deadline: "applications for all abatements to be submitted on or before September 1, 2026." For a first-time filing "you must include a copy of your Summary of Benefits letter from the VA."
Late claims - the county legislative body's job. "The Commission may extend the time for filing a Veteran with a Disability or Surviving Spouse of a Veteran with a Disability Exemption application until December 31 of the current year, if the Commission finds that good cause exists to extend the deadline. You must submit a Late Form... filled out with the reason why you are submitting the... application after the deadline of September 1st."
