Tax exemptions
The Tamaqua Area School District is accepting Assessed Occupation Tax exemption applications for the 2012-20113 school year. This will cover the 2012 calendar year. This year's forms are goldenrod in color.
Retired persons and housewives with no earned income, who have previously been exempted, do not need to file again unless their status has changed and they are now earning income.
Also, those who are disabled or at least 75 years of age, who have been specifically notified of their exemption by the district, need not file an application.
