A home must be owner occupied before April 15th to be eligible for the homeowner’s exemption or property tax reduction benefit. You can apply for the homeowner’s exemption but will not be eligible to receive the exemption until the next year. You cannot apply for the property tax reduction benefit until the next year and must meet the remaining eligibility requirements before you will be eligible for this benefit.
