Daviess senior real estate tax credit starts at the Collector

The senior real estate tax credit in Daviess County is a Collector doorway, not just a general property-tax idea floating around the state. Program questions go to the Collector at 102 N. Main Street in Gallatin, and that is where paper copies of the application are available. The form is also posted online.

Treat the application like an annual local errand with its own deadline. Applicants are responsible for knowing the deadline and getting the application submitted. The credit is tied to the address on the application, so a move or sale means the old filing does not simply follow the owner to a new place.

For a senior homeowner, the helpful habit is to work from Daviess County’s current form, not from memory or a neighbor’s older copy. Check the deadline, gather the required documents, and begin with the Collector in Gallatin for this county program.
