Active Duty Armed Forces Exemption

---

The guidelines for the Active Duty Armed Forces Property Tax Exemption are found in Utah Code Annotated, Sections 59-2-1901 and 1902.   The exemption is subject to proof of “qualifying active duty military service” and a taxable value limit of $248,203 for 2014 that is adjusted annually by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index.

 

Satisfactory evidence of "qualifying active duty military service" must include the following documents:

 

* Military Service or Deployment Orders detailing tentative dates of active duty military service outside of Utah.

 

 * Travel Voucher or subvoucher (DD Form 1351-2) and the Defense Travel system computer printout detailing the processing and approval of qualifying active duty service. 

 

Insufficient evidence may be qualified with a letter from commanding officer detailing dates of qualifying active duty military service outside of Utah.
