Tax relief and valuation review
A homestead exemption, senior-relief program, or valuation protest can change the amount a homeowner owes—but only if the filing reaches the right local office in the correct window. Use the verified county guidance below as your working checklist, then confirm the current form and deadline with Beaver County Assessment / Tax Claim Office.
Relief programs
The filing guidance for this county is: the official Beaver County Assessment / Tax Claim page provides assessment and Clean and Green materials but does not publish a single 2026 countywide homestead filing deadline.

Open homestead applicationPennsylvania Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program: eligible Pennsylvania homeowners age 65 or older, widows/widowers age 50 or older, and people with disabilities may qualify subject to income and residency rules.

Pennsylvania has no general statewide annual assessed-value cap. County assessments are governed by uniformity requirements and Pennsylvania common-level-ratio rules; local Clean and Green preferential assessment and homestead/farmstead exclusions may change taxable value but are not a general cap.
Appealing an assessment
Use the valuation notice and the county’s published protest guidance to determine the last day to file. Do not assume the payment deadline controls the appeal.
Gather comparable sales, photographs, repair records, appraisal evidence, property characteristics, and any documentation that explains why the assessed value is incorrect.
Submit through the official channel, save the confirmation, and attend the board or review hearing if one is scheduled. An appraiser or attorney can help evaluate evidence when the value or stakes are substantial.
The verified protest guidance for this county is: For the 2026 tax year, Beaver County's Notice of Intention to Appeal had to be returned by close of business September 2, 2025. If the language is not a specific calendar date, contact the office promptly for the current notice and board-review schedule.
