Partial exemption from real property tax is based on condition of service, with additional benefits based upon degree of service-connected disability. Applications must be filed before Taxable Status Day. Qualifying widow(er)s may file for this benefit based on their spouse's service. The exemption applies to local and county property taxes.

Every municipality is different when it comes to applying for this exemption and all filings must go through your local tax assessor. Should you encounter any difficulties during the filing process, please contact our office at the Westchester County Veterans Service Agency by phone (914) 995-2145/2146 or e-mail Tasha Duncan.
