Property owners who are 65 years or older may qualify for an additional exemption on their Homesteaded property. This additional exemption – which applies only to the county's portion of the taxes and city taxes for residents of cities that have adopted this exemption – saves the average Broward senior nearly $300 each year in taxes. To qualify for this valuable tax-saving exemption, an applicant must be 65 or older as of January 1, 2020 AND have a combined HOUSEHOLD adjusted gross income for 2019 not exceeding $30,721. If you believe you qualify for this exemption, please click on this link for steps to ensure proper filing: http://www.bcpa.net/senior_instructions.asp
Residents who received the Additional Senior Exemption in 2019 will receive a renewal card in the mail. If you still meet the income requirement, simply sign the renewal card and return it to our office by May 1 so we can ensure you receive this exemption for 2020. Rest assured there is no personal information listed on the renewal postcard. For questions regarding property tax exemptions, please call (954)357-6830.
