SD Veterans Tax Exemptions and Refunds

The following tax exemptions and refunds are available to certain South Dakota veterans:

Property Tax Exemption for Veterans and Their Widows or Widowers

Property taxes are exempt on dwellings or parts of multiple family dwellings that are specifically designed for use by paraplegics as wheelchair homes and that are owned and occupied by veterans with the loss, or loss of use, of both lower extremities, or by the un-remarried widows or widowers of such veterans.

The dwelling must be owned and occupied by the veterans for one full calendar year before the exemption becomes effective. For purposes of this statute, the term "dwelling" generally means real estate in an amount not to exceed one acre upon which the building is located.

Property Tax Refund for Aged and Disabled Persons

Certain low-income property owners are eligible for a property tax refund and should check with their county treasurer for details and assistance in making application. To qualify the following conditions must be met:

The head of the household must be sixty-five years of age, or older, or shall be disabled prior to January first of the year in which taxes are levied;

The applicant must have owned the property for at least three years or, have been a resident of this state at least five years if not qualified under the three year ownership criteria.

Sales Tax Refund for Certain Elderly and Disabled Persons

Certain low-income persons who are sixty-five, or older, or who are disabled, may qualify for a sales tax refund. Applicants should check with their county treasurer for details and assistance.

NOTE: No individual may receive both a property tax and sales tax refund in the same year.
