Bill > HB636

This bill amends the existing law regarding disabled veterans' real estate tax exemptions by changing the frequency of review for tax exemption determinations from every five years to every 10 years. Specifically, the bill modifies Section 8904(3) of Title 51 in the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, which governs the duties of the commission responsible for managing veterans' tax exemptions. The commission will now be required to review all previously granted exemptions less frequently, extending the period between economic status assessments from five to 10 years. This change may reduce administrative burden on the commission while still maintaining periodic oversight of veterans' economic circumstances to ensure continued eligibility for tax exemptions. The bill will take effect 60 days after its enactment.
