One-Time Transfer of Disabled Veteran Homestead Tax Exemption for Surviving Spouses Amendment
One-Time Transfer of Disabled Veteran Homestead Tax Exemption for Surviving Spouses Amendment
Louisiana · November 3, 2026
What this measure does
Allow the surviving spouse of a disabled veteran to transfer the homestead property tax exemption one time to a new homestead
A yes vote means
Surviving spouses of disabled veterans can transfer the property tax exemption to one new home if they decide to move.
A no vote means
Surviving spouses of disabled veterans lose the tax exemption if they sell their home and move somewhere else.
Simple explanation
Right now, disabled veterans get a break on their property taxes for their home. When they pass away, their spouse usually loses that tax break if they move to a different house. This measure lets the surviving spouse keep that same tax break one time when they move to a new place.
