To exempt all WV residents 65 and older from personal property taxes and real estate property taxes effective Jan 1, 2027
HB 4922 would exempt all West Virginia residents aged 65 and older from both personal property taxes and real estate property taxes starting January 1, 2027. The bill amends existing tax exemption laws (§11-3-9 and §11-6B-3) to add this new category for seniors, directly affecting older residents who own property in the state. It clarifies that this exemption applies to all real estate and personal property, not just primary residences. The policy change takes effect on a specific date (January 1, 2027), with no mention of income limits or other qualifying conditions in the bill text. This is a direct tax relief measure for senior citizens, not a procedural or commemorative bill.
