2021 Homestead Exemption
All qualified Florida residents are eligible to receive a Homestead Exemption on their
homes, condominiums, co-op apartments, and certain mobile home lots. To qualify for
Homestead Exemption, you must own and make the property your permanent residence
on January 1 of the year for which you are applying for this valuable exemption. Pursuant
to Florida law, all assessments and exemptions are based upon the status of the property
on January 1. If you purchased and/or made the property your permanent residence in
2020 and have not applied for Homestead Exemption, you can apply for 2021 exemptions
at any time – there is no need to wait until 2021 to file your exemption application with the
Property Appraiser’s Office. You can easily apply online at https://web.bcpa.net
The timely deadline to file for all 2021 exemptions is March 1, 2021. You must make the property your permanent residence by January 1, 2021 in order qualify; however, you have until March 1 to timely file your application with the property appraiser’s office. The late filing deadline for all 2021 exemptions is September 20, 2021. For information about all the other exemptions available to qualified applicants, please visit the “Exemptions & Classifications” page on our website https://web.bcpa.net/bcpaclient/#/Homestead.
Once approved, your Homestead Exemption automatically renews each year provided there is no change in the ownership or use of the property. If you have already applied and been approved for Homestead Exemption at your current property, you do not need to reapply for this exemption. You will receive a Homestead Exemption renewal card next month to keep for your records (Kiar, 2021).
