Veterans Exemption Programs
Military war veterans with a disability of 40% or more or the surviving spouse or registered domestic partner of a war veteran may be entitled to exempt a portion of his or her property's assessed value from property taxation. Apply between Jan. 1 and April 1. 

The Oregon Active Military Service Member's Exemption, also known as Qualified Soldier's Exemption, became effective July 1, 2005, and exempts up to $71,643 of the assessed value of the homestead for soldiers who are deployed for at least 179 consecutive days, or the occupant of the home if the soldier is killed in action.   Please contact our office for more information or to file an application.
