Applicants must be 65 on or before December 31 of the prior year and must have been Alaska residents for the entire prior calendar year.

At Anchorage's effective property tax rate (~0.92%), a $150,000 exemption saves approximately $1,380/year. Applications must be complete and received or postmarked by March 15.
