DISABLED VETERANS

Public Act 24-46, An Act Establishing a Property Tax Exemption for Veterans Who Have a Service-Connected Permanent and Total Disability Rating has been signed into law and will take effect October 1, 2024. Deadlines vary by Town.

Those with disability ratings (provided under CGS § 12-81(20), for veterans with a disability rating of at least 10%). Applicants must generally submit to their town assessor proof of qualifying disability rating (i.e., a permanent and total disability under the new exemption) must be filed with the Assessor by March 31. This deadline may be later in towns that have granted their assessors an extension to file the grand list (CGS § 12-95, as amended by PA 24-46, § 3).
