FAQ
A decedent's surviving spouse is entitled to a homestead allowance of $27,000. If there is no surviving spouse, each minor child and each dependent child of the decedent is entitled to a homestead allowance amounting to $27,000 divided by the number of minor and dependent children of the decedent.
To be eligible for the homestead exemption, State law requires a person to declare a homestead and to record that declaration with the county recorder of the county in which the property is located.
The State of Alaska no longer offers the homestead and homesite programs of the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s that allowed people to “claim” land. As an alternative to these programs, DNR offers the Remote Recreational Cabin Sites Staking Program to Alaska residents. Homesteading on federal land is no longer available.
The Homestead Act was finally repealed in 1976, but a provision of the repeal allowed for homesteading to continue in Alaska until 1986. The last Homestead to be awarded under the provisions of the Homestead Act was in 1988.
Since the 1986 repeal, there has been no federal homesteading program in Alaska; the State of Alaska, however, created public land disposal programs starting with statehood in 1959. Initially, the state sold land primarily through auctions and then through land lotteries after 1978.
