I hope this letter finds you happy and healthy. This is the time of year that the Assessor’s office assists residents with their Applications for Property Tax Reduction.

Based on your income for 2024, the program could reduce property taxes on your home and up to one acre of land by as much as $1,500.

Who qualifies? You might qualify for a property tax reduction if all of these are true:

You are an Idaho Resident.
You own and occupy your home or mobile home, and the value doesn’t exceed a limit set by law that will be calculated in June 2025.
Your total 2024 income after deducting medical expenses, was $37,810 or less.
You are any of the following as of January 1, 2025:
- 65 or older
- Former POW or hostage
- Motherless or fatherless child under 18
- Blind
- Widow(er)
- Disabled as recognized by the Social Security Administration, Railroad Retirement Board, Federal Civil Service, Veterans Affairs, or a public employment retirement system not covered by these agencies

There is also a Property Tax Benefit for Veterans with 100% Service-connected Disability.

Come into our office or go to Tax.idaho.gov/property to get your application.

Other exemptions that are available:
Homeowner, one time application.
