Time to file for your Homestead

If you bought your home in 2008, and lived in it as your permanent residence on January 1, 2009, you need to file for your Florida Homestead exemption before March 1, 2009.
The Florida Homestead Exemption is $50,000 and will reduce the amount you pay for your property tax.
The first $25,000 applies to all property taxes, including school district taxes. The additional exemption up to $25,000, applies to the assessed value between $50,000 and $75,000 and only to non-school taxes.
You can file at any of the Volusia county offices.

(386) 736-5901 (West Volusia)
(386) 254-4601 (Daytona Beach)
(386) 423-3315 (New Smyrna Beach)
(386) 775-5257 (Orange City)
