Disabled Property Tax Assistance

Disabled Property Tax Assistance is available for property owners who are blind, disabled, or at least 62 years old that have an annual household income of $35,500 or less and 40% equity in their homes to apply to defer payment of property taxes on their principal residence. 

On September 28, 2014, the Governor signed AB 2231 (Statutes of 2014, Chapter 703), which reinstates the State Controller's Property Tax Postponement Program with some revisions. Under this bill, applications may be filed with the State Controller's Office beginning September 1, 2016.  Applications will not be accepted prior to September 1, 2016.  Please refer to the State Controller's Frequently Asked Questions for further information regarding the program, or call toll free, 1-800-952-5661.
