What’s in it

AI summary People applying for a military service property tax exemption must have their discharge or service papers verified before their claim is approved. A county veteran service officer will check the information recorded at the county recorder's office to make sure it is correct. This change affects anyone filing for this tax break for assessment years starting in 2021 or later.1
