Washington State Offers Property Tax Relief: Expanded Exemptions for Seniors, Disabled, and Veterans
Washington state has passed a new law offering significant property tax relief for seniors, people with disabilities, and disabled veterans. Starting in 2027, the veteran disability requirement for tax exemptions will be reduced from 80% to 40%. Income limits are also increasing, with Franklin Countys base limit rising from $61,000 to $67,000, and Benton Countys from $77,000 to $84,500. These changes will make it easier for more people to qualify for tax exemptions. The program offers three relief levels, with the top one eliminating excess levies for those who meet the income requirements. Current qualifiers will be automatically upgraded if they meet the new rules. Deductions for Medicare, prescriptions, in-home care, and vet disability pay can help lower taxes. If you think you qualify, contact your county assessors office for more information.
