Nebraska benefits for veterans

Property tax relief for veterans

Veterans receiving VA compensation for a total service-connected disability may have their homestead fully exempt, regardless of home value or income. The same is true for paraplegic veterans and multiple amputees whose home was substantially paid for with VA help.

Surviving spouses of qualifying veterans can also qualify, and other categories cover veterans with non-service-connected disabilities based on income.

How to apply: File with the county assessor by the annual deadline at the end of June.
