Helpful Tips: The maximum standard rebate is $650 but supplemental rebates for qualifying homeowners can boost rebates to $975. Property Tax/Rent Rebate application forms and assistance are available at no cost from Department of Revenue district offices, local Area Agencies on Aging, senior centers, and state legislators' offices. The department is aware that a company is contacting older Pennsylvanians by mail, offering to prepare Property Tax/Rent Rebate applications for a fee. While it's unfortunate that a company is charging for a service that the government and other agencies provide for free, there appears to be nothing illegal about the offer. The deadline for this program has been extended to December 31st, 2023. Payments for applications received after July 1 will be processed as applications are approved.
