Dear Neighbors and Friends,
With Everyone doing their taxes, I wanted to remind you that New Castle County has programs for those who are 65 and older or who are disabled. We offer Property Tax discounts and exemptions for those who qualify. The State of Delaware also offers a School Tax credit. Qualifications for the School Tax Credit have changed as of January 1, 2018. I’ve included the basic information here but if you have any questions just call my office and my Aide Valerie will be happy to answer your questions and send you all the information you need. If you prefer to send me an email that’s fine too DLTackett@nccde.org
