Default Homestead Exemption
My SO and I purchased a home in TV in April. We are listed as Joint Tenants w/Rights of Survivorship on the deed. Next week I am going to register as a legal resident of Florida (DL, voter registration, etc), but my SO is going to remain an Ohio resident until our house sells. Can I alone file for the Homestead Exemption Tax on our Florida home? I did check some government websites and it seems to me this can be done. BTW, he is the sole owner of our Ohio home and I believe he will have a Homestead exemption on that house next year. Any information will be appreciated. Thanks!
