Colorado / State / 2026 Regular Session

SB26-046 (2026 Session Laws, chapter 10) Moved the disabled veteran property tax exemption filing deadline to July 15 and the late deadline to August 15

Catalog reconciledEnactedFigure moved

Signed Takes effect

Expands benefits Gives a disabled veteran two more weeks to apply, to July 15, and to file late, to August 15.

A property tax administration act aligned the veteran exemption’s dates with the senior exemption’s: the application deadline in C.R.S. 39-3-205(1)(b) moved from July 1 to July 15 and the good-cause late deadline in 39-3-206(2)(a.7) from August 1 to August 15. Effective August 12, 2026, after the 2026 deadlines had passed, so the new dates govern from the 2027 filing season.
