Franklin Senior Center Can Help Seniors with
Tax Deferrals, Fuel Assistance
Fuel Assistance - Applications are now here for fuel assistance through
Self Help Incorporated. To submit an application, residents must meet
with a Senior Center Social Services Coordinator. Please call the senior center
to make an appointment. Supplemental fuel assistance is also available
through the Bellingham-Hopedale-Franklin Supplemental Fuel Assistance
Program. Please call the senior center for information at (508) 520-4945.
Tax Deferrals for Senior Home Owners: Seniors (65 years of age or older)
who meet certain income guidelines can defer property taxes until they sell
their property or pass away. The Town of Franklin now allows elders who
are in the tax deferral program to defer water and sewer charges, and betterment
fees. For more information about the deferral process, please call
the Senior Center or the Assessor’s Office.
You may also qualify for the Circuit Breaker Tax Credit of up to $1,070 if
you pay more than 10% of your income in real estate taxes and water and
sewer bills. Seniors 65 or over whose property taxes (or 25% of your rent)
exceed 10% of their gross annual income may be eligible for a tax credit
for this year and the past three years - even if they’ve never filed Massachusetts
state income tax forms. Property owners can add 50% of water and
sewer fees (if they’re not in your property tax bill) to the total taxes paid.
Those who qualify receive the amount by which their taxes exceed 10% of
income, up to a maximum of $1070 for tax year 2015, but taxes must be
filed to earn this tax credit. For assistance in filing for this credit, call Erin
Rogers at (508) 520-4945.
