An Act amending Title 51 (Military Affairs) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in disabled veterans' real estate tax exemption, further providing for exemption.

SB 809 amends Pennsylvania's law to clarify that disabled veterans must have been honorably discharged "for service in any war or armed conflict" to qualify for the real estate tax exemption on their principal residence. This change directly affects veterans seeking the existing tax exemption for their primary home, including the land it sits on. The key provision updates the eligibility requirement in Section 8902(a)(1) of Title 51 to specify the discharge reason tied to military service in conflict. The bill does not create new benefits but refines the existing exemption's criteria. It takes effect 60 days after enactment.
