HB 1125 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Homestead exemption; revise certain provisions relation to application for.

HB 1125 simplifies Mississippi homeowners' applications for homestead exemption by removing the requirement to submit a closing statement or closing disclosure with their application. This change directly affects homeowners seeking to claim or renew the homestead exemption, which protects a portion of their primary residence from property taxes. The bill amends Section 27-33-31 of the Mississippi Code to explicitly state that applicants no longer need to provide these documents. This policy change reduces paperwork burden without altering eligibility criteria or exemption amounts.
