June 30 Application Deadline Approaching for the Boone County Senior Real Estate Tax Relief Program
COLUMBIA, Mo. (June 20, 2025) - The deadline for submitting applications for the Boone County Senior Real Estate Tax Relief Program, both for those new to the program and those who enrolled in 2024, is quickly approaching. Eligible Boone County taxpayers who wish to participate in, or continue participating in, the program can apply through 5 p.m. on Monday, June 30, 2025. Since April 1, the Collector's Office has received more than 1,000 new applications for 2025, as well as more than 8,000 renewal applications for base year 2024.
Applications and information about the application process can be accessed online by visiting www.ShowMeBoone.com and clicking the Boone County Senior Real Estate Tax Relief Program link at the top of the page. Applications and notaries can also be obtained in-person on the first floor of the Boone County Government Center, 801 E. Walnut, Columbia.
Completed notarized applications along with required supporting documents should be submitted to the Collector's Office 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Notarized applications can also be mailed to the Collector's Office at 801 E. Walnut, Room 118. Please allow for up to 30 days for your application to be reviewed and for notifications of approval or denial to be sent by the Collector's Office.
An eligible taxpayer is defined as a Boone County, Missouri resident who:
- Is sixty-two (62) years of age or older before January 1, 2025; and
- Is an owner of record of their primary residence or has a legal or equitable interest in such primary residence as evidenced by a written instrument; and
- Is liable for the payment of real property taxes on such homestead.
Renewal applications do not require notarization.
For eligible taxpayers as of January 1, 2025, the credit will be calculated by using 2025 as the base tax year. Any eligible credit amount would be applied to the 2026 real estate tax statement once a completed 2026 renewal application has been submitted and approved.
