How do I know if I qualify for a homestead tax exemption?

[Leonard · Accepted solution]

To know if you qualify for a homestead exemption you will need to check with your county tax assessor's office.

Homestead exemptions are usually filed at your county courthouse, at the tax assessor's office.

The homestead exemption is a reduction in the assessed valuation of the real estate you use as your main home, the exemption results in a lower real estate tax bill. 

The exemption is not entered anywhere on your federal income tax return.
