You have to do the requisite paperwork of course because on this program homeowners don't pay the tax so a lien is put on the home but does not get called in until the home is sold. Messes things up for passing the house on but as I said this does help some people in some situations. I have known of people doing when medical expenses overtook what they could pull off on limited income. God knows property taxes can eat a monthly budget. I don't know that you have to have approval on SSDI to get this. In our county you did not. Not every disabled person has it as we know. I hope things improve for you soon!

Thanks Littlepaw. I have looked into my county's property tax assistance program. I do need some documentation of disability-either a disable person ID or SSDI and it's a very paltry amount. I think for mine, it's ~$250...my taxes are 3500/6 months...meh
