HARRISBURG — Working to ensure area senior citizens benefit from the state’s property tax/rent rebate program, state Rep. Martin Causer, R-Turtlepoint, will host the final in a series of clinics Tuesday to assist area residents with applying in the program.
The clinic is set for 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the Greater Bradford Senior Activity Center, 60 Campus Drive, Bradford.
“I want to make sure everyone who is eligible for the program receives these helpful rebates,” Causer said. “As always, our assistance with filing for the rebates — whether it is done at one of the clinics or at any of the local offices — is free of charge.”
The program benefits eligible Pennsylvanians who are 65 years or older, widows and widowers 50 years or older, and those 18 years or older with disabilities. Eligibility income limits are set at $15,000 for renters and $35,000 for homeowners, excluding 50 percent of Social Security, Supplemental Security Income and Railroad Retirement Tier 1 benefits.
