They sota'd it as they are not going to give out the credit for second homes or non residents that own homes in ND. Reality they banked on the fact that some people would mis it and it sounded good not to give it out for second homes/non resys.. They slapped themselves on the back. Contact your local rep and give him/her your piece of mind.

eye two credits xist --- you qualify for the primary residence.
But there are conditions to receive that from what I remember. Age/income were two I recall. Would have to try and dig up the legislation that was passed. My recollection is it was a big nothing burger

Here’s how camouflage that. They know very few with decent income do their own taxes. So the accountant is the only guy that actually knows they aren’t getting credits on their second homes. And there are so few that own second homes they wouldn’t ripple the water in a vote to abolish property taxes.

No age restrictions

Homestead Property Tax Credit and Renter's Refund
Disabled Veteran's Property Tax Credit
The Disabled Veteran’s Property Tax Credit is available to veterans of the United States Armed Forces with a disability of 50% or greater.
If eligible, the credit may reduce the taxable value of a homestead. A homestead can include a house, the land the house is on, and/or other buildings on the same land. If a qualified veteran moves to a different homestead, the credit can be applied to the new property.
Eligibility: To be eligible for this program, you must:
  • Be a disabled veteran of the United States Armed Forces with an armed forces service-connected disability of 50% or greater in the year for which the application is made.
    • Your extra-scheduler rating, to include individual unemployability, may bring the total disability rating to 100%, as determined by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs.
  • Have received an honorable discharge or be retired from the United States Armed Forces.
  • Reside on and be invested in the property.
If two disabled veterans are married and living together, the combined credits may not exceed 100% of $8,100 of taxable value of the homestead. In the event of the applicant’s death, the spouse is eligible for the credit. The spouse who is receiving United States Department of Veterans Affairs dependency and indemnity compensation receives 100% of the credit.

With the credit, the applicant’s taxable value may decrease as follows:
Disability Percentage Maximum Reduction
100%$8,100
90%$7,290
80%$6,480
70%$5,670
60%$4,860
50%$4,050
Application Process: To apply for the Disabled Veteran's Property Tax Credit, submit:
The application is due by February 1 of the year in which the property is assessed and for which the credit is requested. Include documentation regarding the applicant’s service-connected disability and military honorable discharge with your application.

To share this information with others, please:
Farm Residence Exemption
In North Dakota, there is a property tax exemption for qualifying farm residences. Each residence is examined individually to determine if it qualifies.
Eligibility: The general requirements for a qualifying farm residence include:
  • The residence must be located on 10 acres or more of agricultural land and occupied by a farmer, which is a person who:
    • Devotes most of their time to farming or ranching activities;
    • Has had net farm income that is at least 66% of the total annual income of the farmer and spouse in any 1 year of the 2 preceding calendar years, whether one or both are farmers.
Individuals who have begun occupancy and operation of a farm within the last 2 calendar years qualify as a farmer, as well as any farmer who retired due to age or illness.
Application Process: To apply, complete the Application for Farm Residence Property Tax Exemption and contact the county director of tax equalization in the county where the residence is located. The complete application should be given to the county director of tax equalization.

Q: I am a farmer, yet my house is taxed. What are the requirements for an exemption of farm residence?
A: There is a specific exemption from property tax for a qualifying farm residence. Each residence must be examined individually to determine if it qualifies. One should contact the county director of tax equalization of the county where the residence is located to review the specific facts of the residence. The general requirements are as follows:
  • Residence must be located on ten acres or more of agricultural land and occupied by a farmer.
    • A farmer is a person who devotes the majority of time to farming or ranching activities; has had gross farm income that is at least 66 percent of the total annual income of the farmer and spouse in any one year of the two preceding calendar years.
    • The term farmer includes a retired farmer who has retired because of age or illness and who, at the time of retirement, qualified as a farmer for the farm residence exemption. "Farmer" includes a beginning farmer who has begun occupancy and operation of a farm within the preceding three calendar years.
Flowcharts are available for those uncertain if they qualify for the exemption.
If you think you may qualify for the farm residence exemption, complete the Application for Farm Residence Exemption and contact the county director of tax equalization in the county where the residence is located.

Additional Property Tax Exemptions
The below are forms you may need to submit to your local official for consideration.

two different programs

your link is the Homestead Property Tax Credit and Renter's Refund for seniors and disable and could have up to $ 9,000 tax relief.

The one I posted is Primary Residence Credit is for ones primary residence with a cap of $500.00
So your saying there’s no age or income taken into account with the homestead property tax credit?

So with all these exemptions and credits that explains why they keep increasing valuations and it hits those that don't qualify even harder. Sounds legit 😕
The credit is a token amount anyway. It’s actually throwing you crumbs and telling you it’s prime rib

Remember when the people of North Dakota went full retard and voted against eliminating property taxes? Shame on you idiots.
But, but how else are we going to be able to give our money to the government! People were actually saying shit like that. Full on retard is spot on. Unfortunately there are people still worrying about taking money away from their kitty. Let's hope the number has dwindled!

No the Homestead credit is age and income specific.

This is a new credt passed in 2023 called Primary residence credit. Only requirement is to own or rent the piece of property you want the credit for, can't apply for it until January 1 2024.

Looks like the age and income got dropped off the original bill that was floating around.
