In a newsletter from our Broward County Property Appraiser Marty Kiar, he shares important information for US military personnel. Those deployed overseas on specified military operations may be entitled to an additional tax-saving exemption. These qualifying military operations are updated by the Florida Legislature annually, so the ones listed below may not be all encompassing as some operations may be added or removed in future years. The Property Appraiser’s office does accept pre-filing for upcoming tax year(s) depending on the dates included on the applicant’s military orders and the application permits a spouse, personal representative or designee under Chapter 709, Florida Statutes, to apply on behalf of the qualifying applicant.
