Bill > HB591

This bill expands eligibility for a property tax exemption for the dwelling house of a disabled veteran to include veterans with a service-connected disability of at least 80%. It also applies the Act to all taxable years beginning after June 30, 2021. The key provisions are: (1) defining a "disabled veteran" as an individual with a permanent service-connected disability of at least 80%, rather than 100%; (2) expanding the exemption to include disabled active duty service members and surviving spouses of individuals who died in the line of duty or of disabled veterans; and (3) applying the changes to all taxable years after June 30, 2021.
