Grant County (Arkansas) Collector: Disabled Veteran Property Tax Exemption

The exemption is the State's, under section 26-3-306, as the Arkansas entry on the disabled veteran property tax exemption explains: no tax on the home, its land and personal property for a veteran VA rates 100% permanent and total or pays special monthly compensation for the loss or loss of use of a limb or blindness, carried on by an unremarried surviving spouse and minor children. Act 876 of 2025 added to section 26-3-306(b) that the VA letter "is required to be submitted only one (1) time" and that "annual submission of a letter from the department is not required", from the 2025 assessment year, so long as you tell the collector if you stop qualifying or move. File again for a new home. The county's page. The Tax Collector's page: "If you are a 100% service connected, permanently and totally disabled veteran, surviving spouse or child of a veteran and are receiving Dependency and Indemnity Compensation, you must bring your Summary of Benefit letter that you receive from the department of Veterans' Affairs to the collector's office by October 15th to receive your DAV exemption. (ACA 26-3-306) After October 15th deadline, NO EXEMPTIONS can be given". So bring the letter before October 15 of the first year you claim; under Act 876 you need not bring it again each year unless you move or stop qualifying. The page does not mention the special monthly compensation route under the State rule. Deputy Collector Angi Martin handles disabled veterans' accounts; for help getting the letter the page points to VA (1-800-827-1000), and the county's veterans service officer can help too. The homestead credit and the disabled or 65 and older freeze are the Assessor's ((870) 942-3711). The office.
