Int 1676-2017
Increasing the maximum qualifying income for the senior citizen homeowner’s exemption and the disabled homeowner’s exemption.
New York City provides a real property tax exemption to low-income senior citizen homeowners called the Senior Citizen Homeowner Exemption (SCHE) and to low-income disabled homeowners called the Disabled Homeowner Exemption (DHE). The exemptions function by exempting a percentage of the assessed value (between five and 50 percent) of qualifying real property from taxation on a sliding scale based on income. Currently, in order to be eligible for either exemption, the combined income of the property owners must be less than $37,400. On July 25, 2017, the State enacted legislation authorizing the City to increase the eligible income threshold for both SCHE and DHE to $58,400.
