[email protected] --- please update.

I have always used my email address [email protected], however so many clients state the email goes to Junk mail. So, going to try a new email address in hopes you receive my messages. I will still maintain the old address, just wanting to be sure my clients get messages. If you wish to send me your email please feel free. Thanks!

As each year the deadline is extended.

The filing deadline for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate program has been officially extended to December 31, 2026. This ensures that eligible seniors, widows and widowers, and those with disabilities have the time they need to apply for a rebate on property taxes or rent paid in 2025.

Rebates will start going out on July 1. If you haven’t applied yet, find out how you might be able to get $1,000 back in your pocket: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/revenue/newsroom/shapiro-administration-extends-deadline-for-property-tax-rent-rebate-program-to-december-31,-2026,-allowing-more-time-for-pennsylvanians-to-apply-for-tax-relief
