Overview: HB 4444, Property tax: exemptions; property tax exemption for disabled veterans; modify, bill electronically reproduced 05/06/2025, Introduced March 11, 2025
Purpose and Intent: The goal of this bill is to expand the existing property tax exemption for disabled veterans in Michigan. The intent is to provide greater financial relief and support for veterans with service-connected disabilities.
Key Provisions:
- Increases the maximum assessed value threshold for the disabled veteran property tax exemption from $50,000 to $75,000
- Allows the exemption to apply to a veteran's primary residence, regardless of whether they own or rent the property
- Ties the exemption amount to annual adjustments in the consumer price index
Affected Parties and Impacts:
- Disabled veterans with service-connected disabilities would be eligible for a higher property tax exemption
- This could significantly reduce the tax burden for many disabled veterans, especially those with lower incomes or who rent their homes
- Local governments may see a modest decrease in property tax revenue due to the expanded exemption
Procedural and Timeline Considerations:
- The bill has been electronically reproduced and is awaiting further action by the legislature
- If passed, the expanded disabled veteran property tax exemption would take effect for the 2026 tax year
