What the money covers

This is not a home-hardening grant. It is a property tax benefit connected to a homeowner’s homestead tax obligations. The statute text provided here does not describe disaster-mitigation work, repair categories, or hardening improvements. (legislature.vermont.gov)

Timing and deadlines

A claim or refund allocation request must be filed on or before the due date for filing the Vermont income tax return, without extension. The form must identify the school district and homestead parcel. (legislature.vermont.gov)
