HB3691 Summary

• Amends the Property Tax Code Section 15-172 (Senior Citizens Assessment Freeze Homestead Exemption) to exclude wages of disabled household members from "household income" calculations.

• Defines "disabled person" as someone with a permanent physical or mental impairment from disease, injury, functional disorder, or congenital condition that renders them incapable of adequately providing for their own health or personal care.

• Allows household income to be reduced by excluding wages earned by any household member meeting the disability definition, which can help seniors qualify for or increase their homestead exemption benefits.
