Property Tax benefits for the surviving spouse of a 100% disabled Veteran

Question: What are the property tax benefits in Florida for the surviving spouse of a 100% disabled Veteran?

Answer:  If a Veteran dies with a rating of 100% service connected disabled, then all Florida property taxes are exempt.  This benefit carries over to the deceased Veteran’s surviving spouse.  The surviving spouse is also exempt from paying property taxes.  If the spouse wishes to move they take the tax value of the home they lived in with their Veteran spouse to their new residence!
