The Elderly & Totally Disabled Homeowners Tax Relief program is a state tax relief program that is administered by our office.

Taxpayers who meet the age requirements (have turned 65 by the end of 2022) or who are totally disabled and meet the income guidelines and who reside in their homes in Bloomfield can qualify for a tax credit, and this is a dollar amount that comes directly off their real estate tax bill.

Qualifying income is social security plus any additional income (pensions, annuities, etc). The deadline to apply for this program is May 15, 2023.
