Subject: [AAEA-MC] FW: Eligible County Homeowneres Encouraged to Apply
for Property Tax Credit

For Immediate Release:  May 31, 2012

Eligible County Homeowners Encouraged to Apply for 

Property Tax Credit 

Montgomery County homeowners who have a limited income or are at least
70 years of age may be eligible for property tax credits that will limit
the amount of taxes they must pay.  One application will determine
eligibility for three programs -- the Maryland Homeowners' Property Tax
Credit Program; the Montgomery County Supplemental Property Tax Credit;
and the Montgomery County Senior Property Tax Credit.  

Property owners who have applied for a tax credit previously and been
denied are encouraged to apply again, since the tax credit programs have
changed and been improved over the years, and your income situation may
have changed.  

In order to be eligible for the Maryland Homeowners' Property Tax Credit
and the County Supplemental Property Tax Credit, a homeowner must:

*	Have an annual household income of up to $60,000; 
*	Own and live in their home in Montgomery County; 
*	Must have lived in that home for at least six months, or will
live in it for six of the next 12 months; 
*	The combined net worth of everyone in the household must not
exceed $200,000.  This does not include the value of the principal
residence or the cash value of any qualified retirement savings or
individual retirement accounts.  It does include any other real estate
or investments that are owned; 
*	Only the first $300,000 of the home's assessed value counts
towards these credits; 
*	The cities of Gaithersburg and Rockville provide additional tax
credits to their homeowners under similar programs.

Homeowners who are at least 70 years of age will automatically receive
the Montgomery County Senior Property Tax Credit if they already receive
either or both of the Maryland and Montgomery County Tax Credits.

Homeowners who file and qualify after May 1 but before the September 1,
2012 deadline will receive either a "revised" tax bill that reflects the
credit amount or a refund if the taxes have already been paid in full.

To apply for these tax credits, homeowners must fill out one application
form each year.  Application forms are available by calling the Maryland
State Department of Assessments and Taxation (SDAT) at 1-800-944-7403,
or by downloading the form and instructions from the SDAT website at 
www.dat.state.md.us/sdatweb/htc.html .
