Massachusetts H3115 amends tax laws to exempt permanently disabled veterans from reapplying for tax abatement annually.

Massachusetts H3115 modifies the tax laws to eliminate the annual reapplication requirement for tax abatement for veterans with permanent disabilities. This change applies to veterans who have a disability rating of ten percent or more, as determined by the Veterans Administration. Once the exemption is granted, these veterans will not need to reapply or provide additional evidence of their disability status in subsequent years. However, the assessors retain the authority to refuse the exemption if they discover that the veteran did not meet the initial eligibility criteria.
