Property Tax Assistance

Property Tax Assistance for Senior Citizens, Blind, or Disabled Persons

The 2009/2010 state budget suspended funding for the Gonsalves-Deukmejian-Petris Senior Citizens Property Tax Assistance Law, which provides direct cash assistance. The Franchise Tax Board (FTB) will not be issuing Homeowner and Renter Assistance (HRA) Program instruction booklets and will not accept HRA claims for the 2009 claim year. For the most current information on the HRA program, go to www.ftb.ca.gov and search for HRA.

Property Tax Postponement for Senior Citizens, Blind, or Disabled Persons

On February 20, 2009 the Governor signed Chapter 4 Statutes of 2009, which immediately suspends the Senior Citizens’ Property Tax Deferral Program. This legislation prohibits the filing of claims for property tax postponement and prohibits the Controller from accepting claims filed after February 20, 2009. As a result of the program suspension, the Controller will no longer accept claims for property tax postponement (PTP) pending modification or repeal of this new law. However, the Controller’s Office will continue processing claims postmarked prior to February 20, 2009. For the most current information on the PTP program please visit our website at www.sco.ca.gov.
