RE: 3204-168-004-00 

Steven Porter

Caseyville, MI 48725 

Mr. Porter — 

I have included in this packet a Frequently Asked Question Section about Disabled 

Veterans Exemption. Please see the highlighted section on page 6 listing why legally I cannot go 

back to the past year to change the exemption even though I would like to. 

I have also included a Primary Residence Exemption Application which I do not have on 

file for you. 

If this has been your primary home and you are not getting a homestead elsewhere 

(example Florida) you can fill this form out and it can reduce the 2024 taxes for you. 

I wish my hands weren’t tied on this because I would love nothing more than to give you 

the exemption but legally I can’t. Each year I make sure to send letters to all the Veterans at the 

first of the year so they have plenty of time to get them back in because I know how important it 

is and how confusing it can be. Feel free to call with any questions and drop of the PRE 

Application so we can give you a break on the 2024 bills if you qualify. 

Thanks, 

Poo
