The county's own page (read from the October 30, 2025 capture, whose figures are 2022's): "Disabled veterans and their widows/ers can qualify for the disabled veteran exemption which is either $149,993 or $224,991 value reduction depending on the income of the claimant for 2022. To qualify for the higher exemption the household income must be below $67,355. To qualify for the disabled exemption, the veteran must be 100% disabled from service related injuries or illness or, if less than 100%, rated by the Veterans Administration as unemployable. If the veteran died from those injuries or illness, the unmarried widow/er is eligible to claim the exemption during their lifetime." Filing. "All exemptions except the low-value exemption require a claim for exemption. For homeowners and disabled veterans at the $149,993 level, only an initial claim is required and the exemption remains in effect for as long as they remain eligible. Most other exemptions require an annual filing to insure that eligibility is current." Contact.
