Los Angeles County Assessor: Disabled Veterans' Exemption

The Los Angeles County Assessor takes the disabled veterans' exemption claim, form BOE-261-G, by mail only, and will not accept sensitive documents sent electronically. From the 2027 lien date the larger SB 296 exemption is claimed the same way.

Also called: property tax, assessor, BOE-261-G, disabled veterans exemption, SB 296, mail.

For: Veteran or service member, survivor.

Where it applies

Written for the jurisdictions listed here.

The exemption is the State's; the California entry gives the amounts, the income limit and the filing deadlines, and the change Senate Bill 296 makes from the January 1, 2027 lien date. In Los Angeles County the Assessor's page asks the veteran, or an unmarried surviving spouse, to download, complete and sign the claim form and mail it to the Los Angeles County Assessor's Office, 500 W. Temple Street, Room 227, Los Angeles, CA 90012. For data security the office does not accept electronically transmitted documents with sensitive personal information, so do not email the VA letter; questions go through the office's online contact form, which can also confirm that a mailed claim arrived. The Assessor's page says the VA must certify the disability. Remember the low-income exemption has to be claimed every year, and the deadline that gets the full amount is February 15.
