A: Your 80% VA disability rating may qualify you for a property tax exemption in Prentiss County, MS, but it doesn't automatically translate to an 80% deduction. Mississippi offers property tax relief to disabled veterans, but the exact amount depends on state and local regulations.

Typically, the exemption amount is based on the disability rating, but there are often maximum limits set by the county. It's important to check the specific guidelines for Prentiss County to understand how your disability rating will affect your property taxes.

To proceed, you should contact the Prentiss County Tax Assessor's office or visit their website for detailed information on the application process and required documentation. They can provide personalized assistance and ensure you receive the appropriate tax benefits based on your eligibility.
