How often do I have to apply for the homestead credit?
After the initial approval, the homestead classification will remain until the property is sold or the owner or qualifying relative no longer uses it as a primary place of residence. The owner must also notify the assessor within 30 days of any change in homestead status (i.e. - the home sells, renters move in, relatives move out, etc.). Penalties may be imposed for improperly-received homestead benefits.
