The Ohio Continuing Homestead Exemption Application For Senior Citizens Disabled Persons And Surviving Spouses is an application for eligible Ohio residents to receive a tax exemption on their primary residence. This exemption helps reduce property taxes and offers financial relief to individuals who meet certain criteria. It applies to those who are age 65 or older, disabled, or a surviving spouse of a deceased homeowner. The application also provides exemptions for those who are veterans, members of the armed forces, or are a surviving spouse of a deceased veteran or member of the armed forces. There are four types of Ohio Continuing Homestead Exemption Applications for Senior Citizens Disabled Persons and Surviving Spouses. These include the Senior Citizen Exemption, the Disabled Person Exemption, the Surviving Spouse Exemption, and the Veteran, Armed Forces or Surviving Spouse Exemption. Each exemption requires an application to be completed and submitted to the county auditor in the county where the property is located. The application must include proof of age, disability, veteran status, or surviving spouse status. Once approved, the exemption will be applied to the applicant's property taxes for the current year.
