Exemption for Totally Disabled Taxpayers
To receive a $1000 assessment exemption, you must file a Totally Disabled Tax Exemption form D-1, along with proof of permanent total disability from the Social Security Administration, by October 1st.
If you became disabled near your retirement date or sometime thereafter, it may be difficult to prove your disability due to the fact that the Social Security Administration refuses to rule on disability because it does not affect eligibility for retirement benefits. In this case, you may submit a Physicians Certificate of Total and Permanent Disability, along with form D-1.
