Greenwich Senior Tax Relief

The Town of Greenwich administers a tax credit program for older adult homeowners, age 65 years or older, who meet the eligibility guidelines. The tax credit can range from $654 to $2,486 depending upon your annual gross income. Qualified individuals are required to file every two years, but if there is a significant change in qualifying income, then individuals can re-apply between filing periods. 

The filing period for Greenwich’s Senior Tax Relief Credit Program is February 1 through May 15 every year.
