What is a Homestead Exemption and who can file for the Homestead Exemption?

 

A homestead exemption provides relief from property taxes by exempting all or a portion of the valuation of the homestead from taxation.  The state of Nebraska reimburses the counties and other governmental subdivisions for the taxes lost due to homestead exemption.

 

A homestead exemption is available to three groups of persons:

 

            Group A:   Persons Over Age 65

 

            Group B:   Certain Disabled Individuals; or

           

            Group C:   Certain Disabled Veterans and Their Widow(er)s.

 There are income limits that each applicant must meet also.

 

For definitions on each of the groups and the income requirements, please contact the Kimball County Assessor’s Office at 308-235-2362.

 

As of January 1, persons who are 65 or over, certain disabled individuals or certain veterans and/or their Widow(er) that meet certain income requirements.  Forms and requirements are available at the Assessor’s Office.
