HB 3569 increases Oklahoma's homestead property tax exemption for qualifying homeowners starting in 2028. It directly affects homeowners with household income ≤3 times the state's median income (per U.S. Census data), allowing their exemption to grow annually based on three factors: last year's exemption amount, the property's value increase, and 20% of the current property value. Homeowners exceeding the income threshold will keep their previous year's exemption amount unchanged. The bill takes effect January 1, 2027, with the new calculation method applying to tax years beginning January 1, 2028, and 2029.
