New York S00609 allows municipalities to accept retroactive applications for real property tax exemptions from certain veterans.

New York S00609 amends the real property tax law to allow counties, cities, towns, and villages to accept retroactive applications for real property tax exemptions from veterans who would have been entitled to the exemption if they had filed an application by the appropriate taxable status date.

The act takes effect immediately.
