Eligibility

Missouri resident who is EITHER (a) age 65+, (b) 100% disabled (any cause, including VA service-connected rating), or (c) age 60+ and receiving Social Security surviving spouse benefits. Income limits apply (2025 tax year: $30,000 single / $34,000 married for those who owned and occupied their home the entire year; $27,200 single / $29,200 married for renters and part-year owners — verify current-year limits).
