Question
JAB
Hello, I'm new here so please forgive me if I'm posting this in the wrong place.
I am trying to find out if I can be rated "permanent and totally disabled" in order to qualify for County property tax exemptions. I currently receive 100% compensation from the VA for a 1151 claim and an added amount for being homebound. I'm also receiving SS disability. Before the 1151 claim, I was 30% service-connected for an unrelated illness.
I've been told that the 1151 isn't considered service-connected, so I can't be rated P&T, as required for the exemption. In my research, I've read online that a 100% disabled Veteran who is also unable to work shall be determined to be totally disabled and that after a period of time can be presumed to be permenently disabled, but the text wasn't from the US Code or my State Code.
If anyone has any knowledge about this, please comment and tell me if I'm spinning my wheels or point me in the right direction if it can be done.
Thank you,
JAB
