About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Utah Active Duty Veteran Property Tax Exemption in its Salt Lake City, UT research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Utah provides property tax relief for active-duty military personnel and their families. The exemption helps ensure military families are not penalized by property taxes on their primary residence while serving. Contact the Salt Lake County Auditor's Office to confirm current exemption amounts and qualifying criteria for active duty service members and veterans.
Exemption amounts and qualifying criteria vary. Contact the county auditor for current year details.
