D.C. Law 24-167, §§ 7071-7072 (Fiscal Year 2023 Budget Support Act of 2022) Created the $445,000 disabled veterans homestead deduction
Subtitle VII-H, the Disabled Veterans Homestead Exemption Amendment Act of 2022, added a deduction of $445,000 from the assessed value of a homestead owned by a veteran classified by VA as having a total and permanent service-connected disability or paid at the 100 percent rate for unemployability, whose household meets the income test for senior and disabled owner relief without its age and disability conditions. The property may not also receive the senior and disabled relief or the assessment cap credit, and applications go to the Office of Veterans Affairs for certification. The act applies as of October 1, 2022 and took effect on September 21, 2022 after Congressional review.
