| HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION FILING DEADLINE TODAY |
|
WENGNews writes, "IF YOU DIDN’T REMEMBER TO FILE FOR YOUR HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION BY THE MARCH 1ST DEADLINE, I HAVE GOOD NEWS AND BAD NEWS FOR YOU. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT SINCE MARCH 1ST FELL ON THE WEEKEND, YOU ARE NOT TOO LATE. THE BAD NEWS IS THAT YOU HAVE UNTIL THE END OF BUSINESS TODAY TO FILE IT. TO QUALIFY FOR THE NOW $50,000 DOLLAR EXEMPTION, A LANDOWNER MUST BE A FLORIDA RESIDENT LIVING IN A PERMANENT, PRIMARY HOME AS OF JANUARY 1ST OF THIS YEAR. ABOUT ONE QUARTER OF TAXABLE HOMES IN CHARLOTTE COUNTY RECEIVED HOMESTEAD EXEMPTIONS LAST YEAR, WHILE OVER FORTY PERCENT OF HOME IN SARASOTA COUNTY RECEIVED EXEMPTIONS. THE EXEMPTION DOUBLED WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE SO-CALLED SUPER EXEMPTION BACK ON JANUARY 29TH. IN CHARLOTTE COUNTY, YOU CAN VISIT ANY OF THE APPRAISER’S OFFICES IN PUNTA GORDA, MURDOCK OR ENGLEWOOD TODAY, WHILE IN SARASOTA COUNTY, YOU CAN VISIT EITHER THE VENICE OR SARASOTA APPRAISER’S OFFICE. BUT YOU MUST DO IT BY THE END OF BUSINESS TODAY!! "
