real_estate_agent Senior Tax Credit

Beginning in 2024, Greene County Seniors may be eligible for a Property Tax Credit!
This credit will allow qualified, senior taxpayers lock down their real estate taxes, effectively freezing their bill for future years.
This will not go into effect until 2024! Collectors across the state are working together and we expect to have everything in place for eligible taxpayers to apply as early as March 2024.



Can I apply now?

Click here to download the application!    The form must be completly filled out before being returned to the County Clerk's Office with all required documentation.  Joint applications (spouses/joint owners) must be signed by all parties and include copies of their IDs.

Do not submit applications to the Collector!

Applications are due to the Clerk by SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

Where can I learn more?

State and local officials are working to clarify the details of this bill.  New information will be published here and on the Clerk's website.

House Bill 756- which would clarity parts of the original bill, SB 190- is awaiting approval of the Governor.  If signed, the Social Security restrictions will be removed and confusing language clarified.  Upon approval, the new legislation would not go into effect until August 28th, 2024. 

The bill's status can be tracked at Actions (mo.gov) and changes to the verbage of the statute at RSMo §137.1050 (revisor.mo.gov).

Will I get a check for the credit, like income tax returns?

No- unlike income tax returns or the MO Circuit Breaker program, the Senior Tax Credit prevents your bill  from increasing (with the exception of factors like new construction or district changes).  There's no need to wait for a rebate!

Will the credit start automatically?

No, taxpayers will be required to submit an application each year.
