The Commonwealth of Virginia does not offer property tax relief programs. However, most Virginia cities, counties, and towns offer some form of personal property tax relief to homeowners age 65 and older, and to homeowners with disabilities.
Personal property tax relief is provided for any passenger car, motorcycle, or pickup or panel truck having a registered gross weight with DMV of 10,000 pounds or less on January 1. Qualifying vehicles must be owned or leased by an individual and be used 50% or less for business purposes.
All citizens must meet the following criteria: ➢ Must be 65 or older, OR are permanently and totally disabled; ➢ Must live in the dwelling; ➢ Have a combined household income of $60,000 or less; and ➢ Have assets (net worth) of less than $350,000. DO I HAVE TO VERIFY MY AGE, INCOME OR DISABILITY?
Applicants who turn 65 or become certified as permanently and totally disabled during calendar year 2024, may apply and receive relief on a prorated basis. Eligibility: Tax relief is granted on the home and the land, not exceeding one acre, upon which that home is located.
Senior Homestead Exemption Must have reached age 65 or older during the tax year. Apply for the exemption at the Township Assessor's office. You will need to bring proof of age and residency with you when you apply.
Taxpayers Age 65 & Older If you, or your spouse, were born on or before January 1, 1958, you may qualify to claim an age deduction of up to $12,000 each for 2022. The age deduction you may claim will depend upon your birth date, filing status and income.
Tax Relief for Seniors & People with Disabilities is granted on an annual basis and a renewal application must be filed each year. To apply, the applicant must be a resident of Fairfax County and be at least 65 years of age or permanently and totally disabled.
