Each year since 1971, Pennsylvania offers relief to older and disabled residents through its Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program.

Last year, it was worth up to $1,657 thanks to a one-time bonus implemented by the state that equaled 70 percent of the rebate.

But barring a change this year, it will be worth anywhere between $250 and $975 in 2023.

HOW TO APPLY

Any time until June 30, eligible Pennsylvanians can fill out an application online.   

However, if you need assistance or prefer to do it in person, Bethel Park residents and others located in the 37th District can apply at the Bethel Park Public Library, located at 5100 W. Library Ave, reports the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

The date to do so will be on March 9 from 10am to 1pm.

The clinic is being run by state Senator Devlin Robinson, who represents the Bridgeville borough.

Another option is to download a paper application and then mail it out to the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.

PAYMENT RANGES AND ELIGIBILITY

The state’s rebate program benefits people aged 65 or older, widows and widowers aged 50 or above and residents with disabilities who are at least 18 years old.

Income for Pennsylvanian homeowners must not exceed $35,000, while the limit for renters is $15,000.

How much money you get back will vary by income. 

For example, the maximum standard rebate is $650 but some homeowners may qualify for supplemental rebates of up to $975.

Renters and homeowners who make $8,000 or less will get up to $650 in rebates.

Those making between $8,001 to $15,000 will get as much as $500.

The rest of the maximum rebates per income range is as follows:

• Homeowners making $15,001 to $18,000: $300
• Homeowners making $18,001 to $35,000: $250

Along with your application, make sure you have documents attached that confirm age, disability, death, income, taxes paid, rent certificate, as well as a deed or a will that shows proof of property ownership.

According to state law, rebates are required to start getting sent out on July 1.
