Arizona Program Overview. Property Tax-Aide features two widely available property tax relief programs for older residents, the Senior Citizen Property Tax Refund Credit, which is available to both homeowners and renters, and the Senior Property Valuation Protection, also known as Senior Freeze.
The Pima County Assessor's Office created the Senior Property Valuation Protection program to help seniors save on property taxes. Homeowners can apply to the "Senior Freeze Program" in order to freeze the limited property value of their home for three years.
Claiming a Homestead Exemption The Arizona homestead exemption is automatic, meaning that no written claim is required. If a person desires to waive the exemption, the person must record the waiver in the office of the county recorder.
