Windsor Veterans’ Property Tax Exemptions

The assessor’s Veteran Exemption Checklist, updated October 15, 2025 for the 2025 grand list, gives the wartime veterans’ exemption as $3,000 off assessment on a discharge filed with the Town Clerk before October 1, and the disabled veterans’ exemptions as $6,000 to $10,500 depending on the disability rating, with proof of the rating due by the March Board of Assessment Appeals session, filed once. The State Additional Veteran’s Exemption under C.G.S. 12-81g doubles the veteran or disabled veteran amount, to $6,000 to $21,000, for income within the state limits, which the checklist prints as $45,200 single and $55,100 married, or $18,000 and $21,000 of adjusted gross income for a veteran rated 100 percent; applications run February 1 to October 1 and refile every other year. The Town Additional Veteran’s Exemption under C.G.S. 12-81f is $20,000 off assessment for a total income, veterans’ disability payments excluded, of not more than $62,200 whether unmarried or married. OLR’s 2023 survey recorded Windsor at $11,000 with the bare state limits and also offering the 12-81f(b) and 12-81(21)(C) options; the checklist now shows $20,000. Ask the assessor. A veteran rated permanently and totally disabled at 100 percent files the state D-2 with proof annually by January 1 under 12-81(83), the checklist’s assessment calendar says, and an in-service member applies for the prior year’s motor vehicle exemption by December 31.
