You must meet all of the qualifications for the General Residential Homestead exemption outlined above and you must be under a disability for the purposes of payment of disability benefits under the Federal Old-Age, Survivor’s and Disability Insurance Act. In addition, the over-65 exemption and the school tax ceiling may be transferred to another property if you change your primary residential status to that property. The over-65 exemption is generally the better choice, since it qualifies for a school tax ceiling. If you qualify for both exemptions, you must choose one. You may not receive both this exemption and the disability exemption.

The person claiming the exemption must reside at the property on January 1 and cannot claim a homestead exemption on any other property. To qualify, the property must be designed or adapted for human residence and the homeowner must own the property on January 1 of the year application is made.
