Personal exemptions reduce a portion of the taxes assessed on a domicile if

of property, length of residency, disability, income and assets.
Individuals who fall under the following categories may be eligible for a
personal exemption:
Blind
Veterans with awards or service-connected disability
Surviving spouse
Senior citizens age 65 and older
Please note that in order to qualify for the senior citizen exemption,
the applicant must attain the age of 65 by July 1, 2006.
