The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue began delivering $226.4 million in Property Tax/Rent Rebate (PTRR) program rebates on Wednesday to nearly 376,000 Pennsylvanians.
The PTRR program was expanded to increase the maximum standard rebate to $1,000, raise income eligibility limits for homeowners and renters, and tie income limits to cost-of-living adjustments. The income limit for rebate applicants is now $48,110, and 167,000 more Pennsylvanians have received a tax cut as a result.
“Our staff has been hard at work helping eligible Pennsylvanians complete their rebate applications,” Secretary of Revenue of Pennsylvania Pat Browne said. “Since January, we’ve delivered filing support over the phone, in our district offices, and by visiting senior and community centers across the stat. We want people to know this program requires eligible Pennsylvanians to submit an application every year. With the filing deadline now extended to December 31, that provides more time for our residents to apply for a rebate that could help them put food on the table and pay their bills.”
This initial round of rebates will be distributed to seniors, widows and widowers, and residents with disabilities who applied for a rebate on property taxes or rent paid in 2025. Rebates range from $380 to $1,000 depending on income.
