Senior Citizens & Disabled Residents

If you are 65 years or older, or a widow / widower 50 years of age or older, or permanently disabled and 18 years of age or older, and your income in 2015 (excluding one-half of Social Security income) did not exceed $35,000, you may be eligible for a Pennsylvania State Property Tax or Rent Rebate of up to $650 on your 2015 real estate taxes.

The amount of the rebate is based on the combined income of the property owner and his/her spouse. I will have a limited number of applications for this rebate at my office beginning in March 2018, or you may call the Lancaster County Office of Aging (717)299-7979, or toll-free 1-800-801-3070 in order to have a form mailed to you.
