NASD has a new way in which some of our taxpayers can benefit from tax relief. At the May 2021 board meeting, the NASD Board of School Directors approved a property tax rebate program that will see a discount of up to $195 for certain homeowners. To qualify for this discount, applicants must:
- have a household income of no more than $35,000 annually, and:
- be 65 years of age or older; or
- be a widow and widower aged 50 years of age or older; or
- be permanently disabled and 18 years of age or older.
The property tax and rent rebate program is based on the existing Pennsylvania Property Tax and Rent Rebate program which has been in effect since 1971 and is funded by state lottery and slot machine proceeds. NASD homeowners must qualify for the state rebate program to qualify for the district rebate program. NASD is granting a 30 percent rebate as follows:
- 30 percent annual rebate for NASD homeowners with a yearly household income between $0 to $8,000;
- 30 percent annual rebate for NASD homeowners with a yearly household income between $8,001 to $15,000;
- 30 percent annual rebate for NASD homeowners with a yearly household income between $15,001 to $18,000; and
- 30 percent annual rebate for NASD homeowners with a yearly household income between $18,001 to $35,000.
