MOORE HAVEN, FL. -- Effective January 1, 2023, the widows, widowers, disability (civilian) and blind exemptions have increased from $500 to $5,000 in value. This change could result in a savings on your property taxes. If you are currently receiving one or more of these exemptions, there is no additional paperwork needed, you will automatically receive the updated benefit.
Senior Citizens with a limited household income of $35,167 are eligible to receive an additional Homestead Property Tax Exemption. Many already enjoy this tax savings benefit. However, some have been denied in past years because their income exceeded the limit. Please be aware that the income limit changes from year to year because it is based on the average cost-of-living index.

If you had a property tax exemption or agricultural land classification in 2022, you will receive at least one of the four renewal cards listed below:The WHITE card is for Homestead Exemption and other related exemptions such as widow, widower, disability, veteran, and senior citizen.
The GREEN card is for Agricultural Land Classification.
The YELLOW card is for property that is being used for tax exempt purposes.
The BLUE card is for Tangible Personal Property valued no more than $25,000.
