(Harrisburg, PA) The Shapiro Administration has extended the deadline for the Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program to Dec. 31, 2026, giving eligible Pennsylvanians additional time to apply for rebates on property taxes or rent paid in 2025.

The extension applies to older adults, widows and widowers, and individuals with disabilities who qualify for the program.

State officials said the change provides additional time for residents to apply as they continue to face rising costs across the Commonwealth.
