Authorizes the "Disabled Veteran Property Tax Relief Act" relating to a property tax exemption for certain veterans
HB 2362 creates a property tax exemption for Missouri disabled veterans, reducing their primary residence property taxes by a percentage equal to their U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs disability rating (e.g., a 50% rating reduces taxes by 50%). It directly affects Missouri residents who are disabled veterans (with VA-certified disability ratings), own their primary residence, and file annual applications with VA documentation by April 1. The exemption is proportional to the veteran’s disability rating (up to 100% for 100% rating) and extends to surviving spouses who retain ownership and residency without remarrying. To qualify, applicants must submit proof of disability rating, ownership, and primary residence occupancy each year.
