WELCOME and thank you for using our new online Homestead Exemption application.

We hope you will find the process convenient and user friendly. It is safe and secure since your personal information is not stored on our web server. Once it is submitted it is held as confidential.

If you are a Florida resident and qualify for Homestead Exemption, you could have the final assessment on your primary residence reduced by up to $50,000. Also, the assessment will be limited to a 3% annual increase, or the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index, whichever is lower.

To qualify for Florida's Homestead Exemption benefits, Florida law requires you to submit your Social Security Number, along with other information regarding your residency in Hillsborough County.

If you do not wish to submit this information electronically, you may file in person or you may complete the printable application on our website, then fax (813-276-8946), mail or bring it to any of our five offices on or before March 1.

Once you have completed the application, please print and retain a copy which will act as your receipt.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact your Property Appraiser's Office at 813-272-6100.
