FAQ
California has two separate property tax exemptions: one for veterans and one for disabled veterans.
Combat-disabled Veterans who are granted Combat-Related Special Compensation after an award for Concurrent Retirement and Disability may be eligible to claim a federal tax refund.
VA disability benefits are automatically exempt because they aren't included in your taxable income, so no application process is required.
With Priority Group 1 you will be entitled to the following: Health care for dependents. Dental, vision and hearing care. Therapy to help you improve your ability to function. Services to improve your quality of life.
There are two levels of the Disabled Veterans' Exemption: Basic Exemption – $175,298, available to all eligible (only required to apply once) Low-Income Exemption – $262,950, available to those who have a combined household income of $78,718 or less for the previous year (must apply each year)

The claim form, BOE-261-G, Claim for Disabled Veterans' Property Tax Exemption, must be obtained from your local county assessor's office and may be available on their website. You may find your assessor's contact information by visiting the Listing of County Assessors page.
The protected amount is called the “homestead exemption.” All homeowners automatically have a homeowner's exemption, which protects part of their equity from involuntary sales (foreclosures). Recording a declaration of ownership extends this protection to voluntary sales.
The home must have been the principal place of residence of the owner on the lien date, January 1st. To claim the exemption, the homeowner must make a one-time filing with the county assessor where the property is located.
Obtain the claim form from the County Assessor's office where the property is located. Submit the completed form to the same office. Once the exemption has been granted, it remains effective until a change in eligibility occurs, such as selling or moving out of the home. Annual filing is not required.
