Show All Answers
1.
Where and how do I apply for a senior citizen and/or disabled person’s exemption on my property taxes?
You will make your application in the
Yakima County Assessor's Office
located in Room 112 of the Yakima County Courthouse. Please contact them at 509-574-1100 to request what type of information/documentation you must provide them in order to apply. Their operating hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Be sure to ask what other types of property tax exemptions/deferrals that you may be eligible for from that office.
2.
Why am I still paying property taxes if I have an exemption?
The amount of tax you may be exempt from paying is based on your value at the time that you apply and what level of exemption you were granted by the
Yakima County Assessor's Office
based on your income. It may also be based upon the acreage of your property that you receive the exemption on which only provided a partial exemption.
After the exemption is applied, you may have value that is left that creates the property tax you must pay. You may also have assessments to pay which are never included in an exemption.
