Pennsylvania has extended the deadline for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate (PTRR) program to December 31, 2026, giving eligible Pennsylvanians additional time to apply for rebates on property taxes or rent paid in 2025. The extension ensures that eligible Pennsylvanians — including older adults, widows and widowers, and individuals with disabilities — have more time to apply for a rebate.
The Department of Revenue has already received more than 400,000 rebate applications this year. Still, thousands of eligible Pennsylvanians have yet to apply for a rebate that could put as much as $1,000 back in their pockets, according to Secretary of Revenue Pat Browne.
The PTRR program benefits Pennsylvanians:
- Age 65 and older
- Widows and widowers age 50 and older
- People with disabilities age 18 and older
Eligible applicants must reapply for a rebate every year because eligibility is based on yearly income and the amount paid in property taxes or rent during the prior year.
The table below shows how much homeowners and renters who fit the eligibility criteria are eligible for, depending on their income in 2025:
| INCOME | MAX STANDARD REBATE |
| $0 – $8,550 | $1,000 |
| $8,551 – $16,040 | $770 |
| $16,041 – $19,240 | $460 |
| $19,241 – $48,110 | $380 |
