Please, if anyone could explain this concept?
When does it go in effect?
How does one file for this benefit?
Can she benefit from the credit now?

Once again, thank you for your assistance......
There are separate applications for Portability and Homestead. The Sumter County Clerk at the Pinellas Plaza Library location can help.

You'll want to apply for both.
