Exemptions reduce the assessed value of your property, thereby reducing the amount of property tax you pay. You may be eligible for a tax exemption if your property is your permanent residence or homestead. In Florida, a $25,000 exemption is applied to the first $50,000 of your propertyâs assessed value if your property is your permanent residence and you owned the property on January 1 of the tax year. This exemption applies to all taxes, including school district taxes. An additional exemption of up to $25,000 will be applied if your propertyâs assessed value is between $50,000 and $75,000. This exemption does not apply to school district taxes. Information Systems Services (ISS) Department has developed a robust and secure web application for Palm Beach County homeowners to e-file their homestead exemption application. Palm Beach County homeowners can access the application from the comfort of their homes and businesses 24/7. The Homestead E-file application went live in April 2019. The application can be accessed by visiting the URL: https://secure.co.palm-beach.fl.us/papaefile/web/heapplication/login.aspx
