Snoh 64 0002 Form PDF Details

Applying for a property tax exemption can offer significant relief for senior citizens and disabled persons, and the Snoh 64 0002 form is the gateway to accessing these benefits for taxes due in 2013. This form serves as the Senior Citizen/Disabled Persons Property Tax Exemption Application and Refund Form. It is meticulously designed to assess eligibility based on the applicant’s income from 2012, reflecting thoughtful consideration for those on a fixed income. Amendments to the laws governing property tax reduction, effective from the 2009 tax year onwards, have introduced changes such as the exclusion of VA disability benefits from the calculation of disposable income, which applicants need to be aware of. Applicants must provide comprehensive documentation of all income and expenses, ensuring the most accurate assessment of their financial situation. Furthermore, the form includes specific sections for certifying age or disability, detailing the types of residences and ownership, and requires applicant signatures to be witnessed, underscoring the thoroughness and legality of the application process. The attached instructions aid in completing the application correctly, and the potential for a refund, dependent on the Snohomish County Treasurer’s assessment, adds a layer of anticipation to the submission. All these facets of the Snoh 64 0002 form coalesce to form an essential document for senior and disabled residents of Snohomish County seeking tax relief.

TAXES DUE IN 2013

If you believe you may qualify for refund for the three (3) prior years, please call our office for additional applications and instructions.

refunded. If there is a tax balance due, the Treasurer will issue a corrected tax statement.)

The petition for refund form needs only your signature, mailing address and date. Do not write on the other side of the petition for refund form. The Treasurer’s office will

complete the reverse side of the document.

DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED

You must provide documentation for all income and/or expenses listed, or this application will be returned to you.
