The deadline to file any exemptions for the 2025 tax year is March 1, 2025. 

We are now accepting 2025 exemption applications at our office locations and our online portal.

If you purchased property that is your permanent residence in calendar year 2024 (or before), you may file for the 2025 Homestead Exemption through March 1, 2025.  This exemption will be reflected on your Notice of Proposed Property Taxes we send out in mid-August 2025.

Applicant(s) and spouse must provide the following Florida residency information:

• Florida Driver’s License showing permanent residence address
• Florida Vehicle registration
• Nassau County voter registration (if you are registered voters)

If you own property outside of Nassau County, Florida you must provide proof of cancellation of any residency required exemption or homestead exemption.  This includes but is not limited to STAR in New York, 2.5% in Ohio, Principal Residence in Maryland, Lottery & Gaming Credit in Wisconsin and Owner Occupancy in South Carolina.  *Almost every state has a residency based property tax exemption. The effective date for removal of exemptions and credits must be on or before January 1, 2025.

If you or your spouse is not a United States Citizen, please upload a copy of residency (green) card.

If your property is held in a trust, please have the following documents from the trust paperwork ready to upload:

• Title Page
