Property Tax Exemptions

I've been looking at the City of West Haven's website. I did find this information from the Assessor's office on tax exemptions.

West Haven offers tax relief to:

• Elderly homeowners and Totally disabled - up to $1250(married) or $1000 (single) if their income doensn't exceed $22,700 for singles, $33,900 for married in 2005 (had to be filed by May 15, 2006).
  
• Blind and Totally disabled - By CT Law - $3000 if legally blind (must show proof by January 31 of the tax year), $1000 if receiving benefits from Social Security (again must show proof by January 31).
• Veterens - CT law allows $1500, but West Haven provides a $6000 exemption if not disabled, and $9000-18,000 exemption for disabled veterens. (applications between Feb 1 and Oct 1, filed biannually)
  

In all cases, more information can be had from the Tax Assessor's office - call (203) 937-3515.
