If you purchased your home before December 31, 2008, you have until March 1, 2009 to file for your exemption. All new homeowners must file even if you had Homestead Exemption in Broward County for your former residence, or if you received a Homestead Exemption carried over from the previous owner. You may file your exemption at any Broward County Property Appraiser’s Office during their normal business hours. For your convenience, the County will offer the same service at Northwest Regional Library. This service is available the second Wednesday of every month from 3 to 5 p.m. If you have filed an exemption in a previous year and have not moved during 2008, you do not need to re-file. Your exemption will be renewed automatically, with a renewal receipt sent to you in the mail before the filing deadline. If you moved after January 1, 2009, you can take this opportunity to pre-file for 2010. If you don’t receive a renewal receipt, call the Broward County Property Appraiser’s Office at or stop by the Coral Springs office at 9881 West Sample Road. the Northwest Regional Library is located at 3151 N.
