Tax Relief, for those who qualify, is available.

For those who qualify, tax relief is available through the Property Tax Credit (Circuitbreaker) or through the Homestead Preservation Credit. The following web page locations,http://www.dor.mo.gov/tax/personal/ptc/ and http://www.dor.mo.gov/tax/personal/homestead/ have more information. You can also call the Missouri Department of Revenue at (573) 751-3505 for more information. Copies of the eligibility requirements are also available in the assessor’s office. In general, tax relief is intended for qualified senior citizens or 100% disabled individuals.
